How is the Us Pricing Carbon? How Could We Price Carbon?
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022 AbstractEconomists have for decades recommended that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases be taxed – or otherwise priced – to provide incentives for their reduction.

Time-Consistent Carbon Pricing [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2017 In this paper we show that carbon pricing is subject to time-inconsistency and we investigate solutions to improve on the problem and restore the incentive for the private sector to invest in low-carbon innovation. We show that a superior price- investment equilibrium can be sustained in the long-term, if the policy-maker is enough forward looking and ...
