A number of recent studies on taxation in the presence externalities a second-best framework consider implications taking into account feedback effects environmental quality.

The modelling implemented GEM-E3 allows three channels through which can occur: decrease medical expenditure, increase consumers’ available time and labour productivity...
This paper examines the rationale for different tax treatment of gasoline and diesel cars currently observed in Europe. First, we analyse possible justifications a treatment: pure revenue considerations, externality considerations constraints on instruments used trucks. Next, an applied general equilibrium model is to assess welfare effects neutral changes vehicle fuel taxes cars. The integrates revenue, environmental externalities, road congestion, accidents income distribution.
The paper reviews the role of taxation in controlling transport externalities. It argues that design taxes should take into account pre-existing tax distortions economy and looks at implications restrictions on instruments disposal policy maker. relevance equity considerations for pricing is also explored.
