Shooting two hawks with one arrow: Could China's emission trading scheme promote green development efficiency and regional carbon equality?

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors explored whether China's ETS pilot policy brings the double dividends of green development efficiency and regional carbon equality by using the DID model and Malmquist-Luenberger (ML) index.

Effects of government subsidies on green technology investment and green marketing coordination of supply chain under the cap-and-trade mechanism

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effects of two types of government subsidies on the green decisions of a two-echelon supply chain under the cap-and-trade (C&T) scheme.

The role of economic policy uncertainty in the energy-environment nexus for China: Evidence from the novel dynamic simulations method.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the function of economic policy uncertainty in the energy-environment nexus for China by using the novel bounds testing with dynamic simulations, and they find that an increase in EPU causes an increase of the volume of carbon emissions.

Exploring the asymmetric impact of economic policy uncertainty on China's carbon emissions trading market price: Do different types of uncertainty matter?

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors examined the impact of four economic policy uncertainties (EPU) on China's carbon emissions trading (CET) market price from the year 2013 to 2021, by employing the nonlinear ARDL model and the asymmetric causality test.

Measuring Economic Policy Uncertainty

TL;DR: The authors developed a new index of economic policy uncertainty based on newspaper coverage frequency and found that policy uncertainty spikes near tight presidential elections, Gulf Wars I and II, the 9/11 attacks, the failure of Lehman Brothers, the 2011 debt ceiling dispute and other major battles over fiscal policy.

The Impact of Uncertainty Shocks

TL;DR: In this paper, a model with a time varying second moment is proposed to simulate a macro uncertainty shock, which produces a rapid drop and rebound in aggregate output and employment, which occurs because higher uncertainty causes firms to temporarily pause their investment and hiring.

Impact of Population Growth

Paul R. Ehrlich, +1 more
- 26 Mar 1971 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that population growth causes a disproportionate negative impact on the environment and that the control of population is necessary but not sufficient means of seeing us through the whole crisis of environmental deterioration.

Irreversibility, Uncertainty, and Cyclical Investment

TL;DR: In this article, the authors build on the theory of irreversible choice under uncertainty to explain cyclical investment fluctuations and show that when individual projects are irreversible, agents must make investment timing decisions that trade off the extra returns from early commitment against the benefits of increased information gained by waiting.
