Carbon tax incentive policy towards air passenger transport carbon emissions reduction

Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 2020
Abstract With the rapid expansion of the aviation industry, air passenger transport fossil fuel consumption and carbon emissions have attracted increasing attention. To reduce fossil fuel consumption and carbon emissions, this paper investigates an air passenger transport carbon tax incentive policy setting problem, in which the carbon tax incentive ...

Tax Policy Issues in Designing a Carbon Tax

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2014
A carbon tax is a promising tool for discouraging the greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change. In principle, a well-designed tax could reduce the risk of climate change, minimize the cost of emissions reductions, encourage innovation in low-carbon technologies, and raise new public revenue.

Carbon tax policy analysis based on distribution channel strategy

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021
This paper establishes a theoretical model to study the carbon tax policy based on a firm's different distribution channel strategy. First, we examine the firm's optimal distribution channel strategies in the absence of government policy intervention. Then, on the assumption that the firm is owned by the society as a whole and taking into account the ...

Biofuel Policies: Subsidy vs. Carbon Tax

2014
Large-scale deployment of cleaner energy sources and technologies through targeted policies is a key measure to reduce GHG emissions. Biofuels are such cleaner sources of energy particularly for the transport sector, a sector that offers only limited options to reduce emissions compared to other sectors such as power and industry.

Beyond Carbon Pricing: Tax Reform is Climate Policy

Global Policy, 2021
AbstractThe incrementalism of carbon pricing, which includes carbon taxes and emissions trading, has led us astray. It has been proffered as a key component of climate policy, yet evidence clearly shows that its effects are marginal. It provides limited emissions reductions and has provoked considerable political controversy in key large‐emitting ...

Evaluating Carbon Tax Policy: Methodological Reassessment of a Natural Experiment

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
Heralded as the grand experiment in carbon tax policy, the Canadian province of British Columbia was at the forefront of North American environmental policy when it implemented a carbon tax in 2008. Despite being well-lauded in the literature, new data seems to suggest that CO2 emissions and fossil fuel consumption have in fact risen in recent years ...

Investment in Low Carbon Emission under Different Carbon Tax Policies

2012 Fifth International Joint Conference on Computational Sciences and Optimization, 2012
The manufacturing activities of an enterprise can be categorized as production with high and low carbon emissions. The evolutionary path of enterprises is analyzed on the basis of a construction of the evolutionary game model. And then carbon tax which is regarded as an effective method to reduce emissions is tested.

Carbon tariffs and environmental policy: Taxes versus standards

International Journal of Economic Theory
AbstractThis paper compares different environmental policies under free‐trade and carbon tariffs. Our findings are as follows. First, taxes and standards of exporting countries become laxer under carbon tariffs than free trade. Next, if an importing country adopts free trade, its welfare is relatively lower (higher) under taxes when the marginal ...
