Macro-economic issues

Many environmental problems are global or national problems. Therefore, these problems and the policies that address them have economic repercussions on a national or international scale. Macro-economic issues in environmental economics include:

The environmental and economic effects of 'green' taxation; The relation between economic growth and environmental degradation (Environmental Kuznets Curve); The relation between economic growth and resource abundance (Resource Curse); The role of innovation in environmental policy.

Students working on this topic will probably use General Equilibrium model
