The Green Paradox: A Supply-Side Approach to Global Warming
A leading economist develops a supply-side approach to fighting climate change that encourages resource owners to leave more of their fossil carbon undergr.

CLIMATE CHANGE AND GREEN PARADOXES
Furthermore, postponing climate policy and subsidising renewable energy induces fossil fuel producers to exhaust reserves more quickly, and to accelerate ...
Is there really a green paradox? - ScienceDirect.com

The green paradox of the economics of exhaustible resources

Empirical Tests of the Green Paradox for Climate Legislation
The Green Paradox posits that fossil fuel markets respond to changing expectations about climate legislation, which limits future consumption, by shifting ...
Divestment prevails over the green paradox when anticipating ...
We find that anticipation effects, on balance, reduce CO 2 emissions during the implementation lag. This is because of strong divestment in coal power plants.
The literature on the “Green. Paradox” highlights that climate legislation, which limit future fossil fuel use, give resource owners an.
An endogenous emissions cap produces a green paradox
This paper establishes that a cap-and-trade system with an endogenous emissions cap like in the EU ETS suffers from a strong green paradox: ...
The Green Paradox: A Supply-Side Approach to Global Warming
Thus the “green paradox” assumes that green measures will accelerate the extraction of fossil fuels and thus increase the CO2 in the atmosphere rather than ...
