Landscapes that work for biodiversity and people
TL;DR: Biodiversity-based techniques can be used to manage most human-modified lands as “working landscapes” and ensure that the production of food, fiber, fuel, and timber can be sustained over the long run and be more resilient to extreme events.

Carbon pricing in climate policy: seven reasons, complementary instruments, and political economy considerations
Andrea Baranzini,Jeroen C.J.M. van den Bergh,Stefano Carattini,Richard B. Howarth,Emilio Padilla,Jordi Roca +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the main arguments for carbon pricing are presented to stimulate a fair and well-informed discussion about it, and the discussion goes beyond traditional arguments from environmental economics by including relevant insights from energy research and innovation studies as well.

A survey of the literature on environmental innovation based on main path analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify the main directions in which the literature on EI has developed over time and use two algorithms to analyze a citation network of journal articles and books.

Do green jobs differ from non-green jobs in terms of skills and human capital?
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare green and non-green occupations to detect differences in terms of skill content and of human capital, revealing that green jobs use more intensively high-level cognitive and interpersonal skills compared to nongreen jobs.

Growth in emission transfers via international trade from 1990 to 2008
TL;DR: A trade-linked global database for CO2 emissions covering 113 countries and 57 economic sectors from 1990 to 2008 indicates that international trade is a significant factor in explaining the change in emissions in many countries, from both a production and consumption perspective.

Determinants of environmental innovation in US manufacturing industries
TL;DR: In this article, the authors employ panel data models to study how environmental innovation by US manufacturing industries responded to changes in pollution abatement expenditures and regulatory enforcement during the period 1983 through 1992.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trade, Growth, and the Environment
TL;DR: For the last ten years environmentalists and the trade policy community have engaged in a heated debate over the environmental consequences of liberalized trade as mentioned in this paper, which has been hampered by the lack of a common language and also suffered from little recourse to economic theory and empirical evidence.

Renewable Energy Policies and Technological Innovation: Evidence Based on Patent Counts
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effect of environmental policies on technological innovation in the specific case of renewable energy and found that broad-based policies, such as tradable energy certificates, are more likely to induce innovation on technologies that are close to competitive with fossil fuels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induced Innovation and Energy Prices
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used U.S. patent data from 1970 to 1994 to study the impact of energy prices on energy-efficient innovations and found that both energy prices and the supply of knowledge have strongly significant positive effects on innovation.
