摘要

如果政府不能承诺未来的碳税税率，温室气体减排的投资将基于对这些税率的不确定和/或错误的预测。对未来碳税率的预测对不可再生碳资源所有者的决策也很重要。预计未来碳税的规模对近期排放和碳能源替代品投资的影响，在很大程度上取决于开采成本随着总开采量的增加而增加的速度。此外，非碳替代品投资回报的时间分布对排放和投资的影响也很重要。

The Green Paradox and Greenhouse Gas Reducing Investments

If governments cannot commit to future carbon tax rates, investments in greenhouse gas mitigation will be based on uncertain and/or wrong predictions about these tax rates. Predictions about future carbon tax rates are also important for decisions made by owners of nonrenewable carbon resources. The effects of the size of expected future carbon taxes on near-term emissions and investments in substitutes for carbon energy depend significantly on how rapidly extraction costs increase with increasing total extraction. In addition, the time profile of the returns to investments in noncarbon substitutes is important for the effects on emissions and investments.

期刊介绍： Environmental and resource economics has become a broad topic making connections with many other subdisciplines in economics as well as the natural and physical sciences. It has also experience a significant growth in research such that the literature is exploding in terms of the number of topics addressed, the number of methodological approaches being applied and the sheer number of articles being written. Coupled with the high degree of specialization that characterizes modern academic research, this proliferation of topics and methodologies makes it impossible for anyone, even those who specialize in the subject, to keep up with developments in the field.
