Pollution Control Policies and Natural Resource Dynamics: A Theoretical Analysis
Policies for the management of natural resources and the resources themselves interact to form complex systems. In this paper, we present a highly simplified model that can be used to study the general features of those systems. The model has three state variables, the abundance of the resource, environmental pollution, and the capital devoted to pollution control. We analyze it graphically usi...
متن کاملNatural Resource Extraction with Reversible Stock Pollution
This paper concerns the stock pollution problem, such as the pollution of agricultural soil with heavy metals due to mining. Unlike the existing literature that examines the effects of natural pollution decay, this paper considers that the pollution stock is reversible only through capital investment. By examining the typical regulation that requires the mining firm to recover the disturbed lan...
متن کاملPollution control: targets and dynamics
In this paper I study the e¤ects of environmental regulation which establishes upper and lower binding targets to pollution emissions. Essentially, I deal with the properties of a stochastic model of pollution control in continuous-time under emission targets and uncertainty, emphasizing dynamic nonlinearities. Inside the targets pollution behaves as if it were freely oating until it hits one ...
متن کاملAir Pollution Control Policies in China: A Retrospective and Prospects
With China's significant role on pollution emissions and related health damage, deep and up-to-date understanding of China's air pollution policies is of worldwide relevance. Based on scientific evidence for the evolution of air pollution and the institutional background of environmental governance in China, we examine the development of air pollution control policies from the 1980s and onwards...
متن کاملThe Incidence of Pollution Control Policies
This paper reviews theoretical and empirical literature on the household distribution of the costs and benefits of pollution control policies, and ways of integrating distributional issues into environmental cost–benefit analysis. Most studies find that policy costs fall disproportionately on poorer groups, though this is less pronounced when lifetime income is used, and policies affect prices ...
