We study the impacts of carbon taxation of international transport fuels on CO2 emissions andtrade activity, focusing on maritime transport, which constitutes the most important internationaltrade transport activity. Our estimated bunker price elasticities range from 􀀀 0.03 to 􀀀 0.42....

Biodiesel is one of the renewable fuels which is similar to diesel fuel. Biodiesel fuel has more oxygen than diesel fuel and this leads to better combustion and thereby, decreases PM, CO, and UHC emissions. On the other hand, biodiesel has a higher viscosity and density than diesel fuel which...
