carbon emissions

Several of the most populous developing countries start the analysis with carbon emissions that are slightly below the average trajectory.

We then use this subsidiary equation to consider the impact on global carbon emissions of alternative assumptions regarding energy prices.

We conclude with estimates of the marginal cost of abating additional carbon emissions using crop residues.

Analysis of past data and of factors contributing to growing energy-related carbon emissions indicates that commercial energy intensity will increase in the near future.

It also results in an increase in the capture or sequestration of carbon in soils, which is one means of reducing net carbon emissions.

We estimate the marginal cost of reducing carbon emissions beyond the existing baseline.

Finally, both municipal waste and carbon emissions per capita increase unambiguously with rising income.

Stabilization of energy-related carbon emissions at a pre-2020 level is unlikely in the absence of policy initiatives undertaken to reduce these emissions.

Therefore, instead of focusing on stabilization, we look at the effects of reductions from a 'business as usual' baseline level of carbon emissions.

In the base case, carbon emissions in year 2032 are 2.16 billion tons.

The results show that a carbon tax would have limited effectiveness in controlling carbon emissions.

We examine the impact of a carbon tax on carbon emissions and growth in the economy.

In particular, the resulting model provides a framework to examine the interaction between global trends in economic development, population growth, and carbon emissions.

In the following analysis, we wish to explore a number of alternatives that could potentially replace even more carbon emissions.

In the absence of an agreement to reduce carbon emissions, these scenarios (which do not incorporate carbon taxes) suggest a large increase in emissions.
