| Tiivistelmä: | This article presents a climate-policy game allowing international emissions trading, where governments first opt for their emissions permits amount. These permits are transferred to firms, and then internationally traded on a competitive market. Comparing with a game without trading, it is found that the potential efficiency improvements from permit trading, identified in other studies, are totally undone if governments also put into operation a tax or subsidy on domestic emissions. In this case, the only impact of trading is a redistribution of income making the most affected by climate change worse off. |
