Global Environmental Politics, 2023 Abstract Hard climate policy (e.g., regulation, taxes/pricing, phaseouts) is needed to meet ambitious climate targets, but when such policy is introduced, it can sometimes trigger backlash. Backlash involves an abrupt and forceful negative reaction by a significant number of actors seeking to reverse a policy, often through extraordinary

Climate Policies: A Burden or a Gain? [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013 That climate policies are costly is evident and therefore often create major fears. But the alternative (no action) also has a cost. Therefore, mitigation costs netted of the damage costs avoided are the only figure that can seriously be considered as the “genuine cost” of a policy. We elaborate on this view of a policy’s cost by distinguishing between

Discounting and Climate Policy [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2020 Abstract The social rate of discount is a crucial driver of the social cost of carbon (SCC), that is, the expected present discounted value of marginal damages resulting from emitting one ton of carbon today.
