... environmental economics cost reduction In the last hundred years the concentration of some greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has markedly increased. There is a wide consensus in the scientific community that this seems to influence the Earth’s surface temperature and, thus, the world climate...

..., as, for example, the discount rate. In particular, some maps of the COE and break-even carbon tax (BECT) behavior have been constructed to test the importance of the market uncertainty on the economic results obtained. Finally, the possible technological progress effect on the BECT with a cost reduction of some...
