Shi, X., S. Zhang——Computers & Industrial Engineering: In Search of Redistribution-Effective Carbon Tax Regime
时间:2012-11-22
This paper runs extensive numerical experiments to find the global redistribution-effective carbon tax regime. We discuss two broad categories of schemes, namely, the bottom-up type constant-rate and top-down type constant-revenue ones. On a comparable basis, we compare these two broad categories of schemes using the notion of elasticity. We conclude that, in both the bottom-up and top-down paradigms, progressive schemes has the largest redistribution effects in terms of reducing global inequali
