With the dramatic pace of modernization of the world's population, human adaptation as a theoretical construct and paradigm will likely become a focal scientific issue involving scientists from many disciplinary areas during the 21st Century. Macro and micro environments are in rapid flux and human populations are exposed to rapid change. The concept of adaptation, at least in the field of biol...
I develop a two sector model in which one sector produces a good that generates pollution, a negative externality. I show that even if it takes time for workers to switch sectors, the optimal tax on the dirty good depends only on the marginal rate of substitution between private consumption of the dirty good and pollution. The time it takes workers to switch sectors and the number of workers ne...
Informational interventions (e.g., awareness campaigns, carbon footprint calculators) are built on the assumption that informing the public about the environmental consequences of their actions should result in increased pro-environmental intentions and behavior. However, empirical support for this reasoning is mixed. In this paper, we argue that informational interventions may succeed in impro...
The latest Mesozoic and earliest Tertiary sediments at Deep Sea Drilling Project site 524 provide an amplified record of environmental and biostratographic changes at the end of Cretaceous. Closely spaced samples, representing time intervals as short as 10(2) or 10(3) years, were analyzed for their bulk carbonate and trace-metal compositions, and for oxygen and carbon isotopic compositions. The...
Changing environmental context during encoding can influence episodic memory. This study examined the memorial consequences of environmental context change in children. Kindergartners, first and fourth graders, and young adults studied two lists of items, either in the same room (no context change) or in two different rooms (context change), and subsequently were tested on the two lists in the ...

Environmental regulation is increasingly judged on its ability to stimulate innovation. While prior studies focus primarily on the direct effect on innovation by regulated firms, this paper examines the importance of indirectly induced innovation by both regulated and unregulated firms. Two channels for indirect effects are considered: passthrough of regulation-imposed costs into output prices ...
Current economic restructuring policies have ignored unintended environmental consequences and cobenefits, the understanding of which can provide foundations for effective policy decisions for green economy transformation. Using the input-output life cycle assessment model and taking China as an example, we find that household consumption, fixed capital formation, and export are main drivers to...
