Great SCO2T! Rapid tool for carbon sequestration science, engineering, and economics
CO2 capture and storage (CCS) technology is likely to be widely deployed in coming decades in response to major climate and economics drivers: CCS is part of every clean energy pathway that limits global warming to 2C or less and receives significant CO2

Comparing Policies to Combat Emissions Leakage: Border Tax Adjustments versus Rebates [PDF]
We explore conditions determining which anti-leakage policies might be more effective complements to domestic greenhouse gas emissions regulation. We consider four policies that could be combined with unilateral emissions pricing to counter effects on ...

In Search of a Rationale for Differentiated Environmental Taxes [PDF]
Environmental tax schemes in OECD countries often involve tax rates differentiated across industrial, commercial and household sectors. In this paper, we investigate four potentially important arguments for these deviations from uniform taxation: pre ...
