Sub-Saharan West Africa is a vulnerable region where better quantification and understanding of the impact climate change on crop yields urgently needed. Here, we have applied process-based model SARRA-H calibrated validated over multi-year field trials surveys at eight contrasting sites in terms agricultural practices Senegal, Mali, Burkina Faso Niger. The gives reasonable correlation with observed sorghum millet under range cultivars traditional management practices. We to more than 7000...
Urban road transport is an important source of local pollution and carbon emissions. Designing effective fair policies tackling these externalities requires understanding who contributes to emissions today. We estimate individual transport-induced footprints combining a travel demand survey from the Paris area with NOx, PM2.5 CO2 emission factors. find that top 20% emitters contribute 75%–85% on representative weekday. They combine longer distances travelled, high car modal share and,...
Abstract A recurring concern raised by the European GHG Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) is fear of losses to EU industry through competition: both loss in domestic production and profits. This article analyses how profits cement may be affected different approaches allocation emissions allowances. We analyse two contrasting methods for free With 'grandfathering', number allowances a firm gets independent its current behaviour. 'output-based allocation', proportional firm's level. Whereas...
Abstract In many low‐income countries, agriculture is mostly rainfed and crop yield depends highly on climatic factors. Furthermore, farmers have little access to traditional insurance, which suffers from high information asymmetry transaction costs. Insurances based meteorological indices could fill this gap since they do not face such drawbacks. However, a full‐scale implementation has been slow so far. article, the most advanced projects that taken place in developing countries using...
Pioneering domestic environmental regulation may foster the creation of new eco-industries. These industries could benefit from a competitive advantage in global market place. This article examines empirical evidence impact renewable energy policies on export performance products (wind and solar PV). We use gravity model international trade with balanced dataset 49 (for wind) 40 PV) countries covering period 1995–2013. The stringency is proxied by installed capacities. Our econometric shows...
In a world with uneven climate policies, the carbon price differentials across regions could shift production of energy‐intensive goods from carbon‐constrained countries to ‘carbon havens’, or laxer policy. This would reduce environmental benefits policy (carbon leakage) while potentially damaging economy (competitiveness concerns). A review on these questions is provided in this article. First we discuss main terms involved, such as leakage, competitiveness, sectors at risk, spillovers....
Abstract Although a global cap-and-trade system is seen by many researchers as the most cost-efficient solution to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, governments of developing countries refuse enter into such in short term. Many scholars and stakeholders, including European Commission, have thus proposed various types commitments for that appear less stringent, sectoral approaches. A macroeconomic assessment approach provided countries. Two policy scenarios particular are assessed, which...
This article compares several configurations of a border adjustment (BA) to the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) that are designed maximize their World Trade Organisation (WTO) compatibility, either with GATT general regime or Article XX (its environmental exception rule). The different BAs assessed quantitatively using partial equilibrium model CASE II, which represents four sectors included in ETS (cement, aluminium, steel and electricity). main findings indicate inclusion imports...
Ensure open markets for clean technologies and products.
The European Union Emissions Trading System ( EU ETS ), presented as the ‘flagship’ of climate policy, is subject to many criticisms from different stakeholders: it neither reduce carbon emissions nor generates enough low‐carbon innovation; induces competitiveness losses and leakage; its distributional effects are unfair; and, finally; susceptible fraud. We review these recognize that abatement real (though small), innovation insufficient, leakage did not seem take place, have indeed been...
In a world of uneven climate policies, concerns about carbon leakage and competitiveness for heavy industries are the main arguments against implementation ambitious policies. this paper we investigate potential competitiveness-driven operational due to European Union Emissions Trading scheme (EU ETS). We focus on two energy-intensive sectors, cement steel, phases I II EU ETS. From simple analytical model, derive an equation linking net imports steel local foreign demand along with price....
Car use imposes costly environmental externalities. We investigate to what extent car trips could be shifted low-emission modes, avoided via teleworking, or improved a transition electric vehicles in the context of daily mobility Paris area. derive counterfactual travel times for 45,000 from representative transport survey, and formulate modal shift scenarios including maximum acceptable increase time. For time below 10 min, 46% drivers e-bike – mostly public transit rarely –, with half them...
