Unilateral Carbon Taxes, Border Tax Adjustments and Carbon Leakage
We examine the impact of a unilateral carbon tax in developed countries, focusing on the expected size of carbon leakage (an increase in emissions in non-taxing regions as a result of the tax) and the effects on leakage of border tax adjustments. We start by analyzing the problem using a simple two-country, three-good general equilibrium model to ...

If the world is to overcome the threat of climate change, a price must be set on car-bon. A carbon tax is a means of creating a carbon price, and it is an ideal tax in that, unlike most taxes, it promotes economic efficiency. Yet many countries have no carbon tax. The reason is that there are strong political interests opposed to taxing carbon. I shall

Targeted carbon tax reforms [PDF]
Abstract In the presence of intersectoral linkages, sector-specific carbon tax changes can have complex general equilibrium effects. In particular, a carbon tax on the emissions of a sector can lead to an increase in aggregate emissions. We analytically characterise how incremental taxes on the emissions of any set of sectors affect aggregate ...

THE PROMISES AND PITFALLS OF TAXING CARBON
Carbon taxes are an important part of the policy toolbox for addressing climate change. Some economists, like William Nordhaus, have gone so far as to claim that “raising the price of carbon is a necessary and sufficient step for tackling global warming” (Nordhaus 2008, p. 22).

A Dynamic Carbon Tax on Gasoline
We propose a dynamic carbon tax (DCT) that stabilises gasoline prices by adjusting inversely to crude oil prices. By virtue of reducing gasoline price uncertainty and thus promoting the purchase of more fuel efficient vehicles, the DCT is expected to be more effective in cutting CO2 emissions than an equivalent ordinary fixed-rate carbon tax. By virtue
