The Costs of Reducing Greenhouse-Gas Emissions
Human activities around the world are producing increasingly large quantities of greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2) resulting from the consumption of fossil fuels and deforestation. Most experts expect that the accumulation of such gases in the atmosphere will result in a variety of environmental changes over time, including a gradual warming of the global climate, extensive ch...
متن کاملModeling of Greenhouse Gas Emission from Livestock
The effects of climate change on humans and other living ecosystems is an area of on-going research. The ruminant livestock sector is considered to be one of the most significant contributors to the existing greenhouse gas (GHG) pool. However, there are opportunities to combat climate change by reducing the emission of GHGs from ruminants. Methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) are emitted by ru...

متن کاملA Sensitivity Analysis of Timing and Costs of Greenhouse Gas Emission Reductions
This paper analyses the optimal timing and macro-economic costs of carbon emission reductions that mitigate the global average atmospheric temperature increase. We use a macro-economic model in which there are two competing energy sources, fossil-fuelled and nonfossil-fuelled. Technological change is represented endogenously through learning curves, and niche markets exist implying positive dem...
