Abstract

Policies designed to control greenhouse gases imply domestic tradeoffs and international externalities, which lead to both domestic and international conflicts, influencing their feasibility and implementations. Our paper investigates two quantitative aspects within this debate. We intend to quantify the impact of: (a) the internalization of international externalities; and (b) the damage associated with a short-term view of climate policies. In this respect, we adopt the innovative (in this field) idea of model predictive control to formalize moving-horizon policy strategies and, thus, to build counterfactuals characterized by a different horizon for all policymakers.

减缓温室气体排放：全球外部性和短期主义

旨在控制温室气体的政策意味着国内权衡和国际外部性，这会导致国内和国际冲突，影响其可行性和实施。我们的论文研究了这场辩论中的两个数量方面。我们打算量化以下方面的影响：（a）国际外部性的内部化；以及（b）对气候政策的短期看法所造成的损害。在这方面，我们采用了模型预测控制的创新思想（在该领域），以形式化动态范围政策策略，从而为所有决策者建立以不同范围为特征的反事实。

期刊介绍： Environment and Development Economics is positioned at the intersection of environmental, resource and development economics. The Editor and Associate Editors, supported by a distinguished panel of advisors from around the world, aim to encourage submissions from researchers in the field in both developed and developing countries. The Journal is divided into two main sections, Theory and Applications, which includes regular academic papers and Policy Options, which includes papers that may be of interest to the wider policy community. Environment and Development Economics also publishes occasional Policy Fora (discussions based on a focal paper). From time to time the journal publishes special issues based on a particular theme.
