Using this indicator, we explore the factors associated with these preferences and their implications for expected short-term economic growth. Our findings show that green gap and touristic attractiveness shape countries’ green policy priorities. Furthermore, we find that a stronger focus on environmental SDGs is positively associated with higher expected GDP growth in the short term, suggesting that investments and reforms aimed at environmental sustainability may also drive short-term economic gains.

We show that the combination of ETS and WhC results in increased total energy savings but decreased production compared to when only ETS is available. Using the case study of two energy-intensive sectors in China, our numerical simulations reveal that when carbon prices are sufficiently high (above 50 yuan, or $7.18 per ton), both sectors will opt to participate in the ETS, making the WhC market dormant. However, when the marginal emission damage exceeds 400 yuan (or $ 54.45) per ton, the WhC market may lead to a higher social surplus than the ETS-only scenario by encouraging more valuable emission reductions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48419,"journal":{"name":"Economic Modelling","volume":"146 ","pages":"Article 107027"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143376431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a large sample of Italian food manufacturers, and applying Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA), our results reveal that while extreme weather initially reduces technical efficiency, it can stimulate longer-term improvements, through mechanisms such as investment and performance-driven adjustments. Notably, institutional quality significantly mitigates short-term disruptions and amplifies long-term gains. Therefore, our analysis underscores the broader importance of effective governance in enhancing productive efficiency, reinforcing similar conclusions drawn from studies in other sectors.

This study investigates this hypothesis from theoretical and empirical perspectives. Initially, we construct a theoretical framework, delineating a sub-game perfect Nash equilibrium model wherein the grandparent first commits to caring for the grandchild, followed by anticipation of receiving care from their adult child in disability scenarios.
