TL;DR: This article reviewed the explanatory power of various sustainability indices applied in policy practice and showed that these indices fail to fulfill fundamental scientific requirements making them rather useless if not misleading with respect to policy advice.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors formulate market equilibrium as a mixed complementarity problem which explicitly represents weak inequalities and complementarity between decision variables and equilibrium conditions, and demonstrate how to integrate bottom-up activity analysis into a top-down representation of the broader economy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the complementarity format is used in computable general equilibrium (CGE) modeling for a hybrid description of economy-wide production possibilities where energy sectors are represented by bottom-up activity analysis and the other production sectors are characterized by top-down regular functional forms typically belonging to the constant-elasticity-of-substitution (CES) family.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the results of an Energy Modeling Forum study (EMF 29) on the efficiency and distributional impacts of border carbon adjustment, and they found that it can effectively reduce leakage and ameliorate adverse impacts on energy-intensive and trade-exposed industries of unilaterally abating countries.
