As nations work to develop climate policies, economic insights into their design and implementation are ever more important. With a balance between theoretical and empirical approaches, The Design and Implementation of US Climate Policy looks at the possible effects of various climate policies on a range of economic outcomes. The studies that comprise the volume examine topics that include the coordination-or lack thereof-between the federal and state governments, implications of monitoring and enforcing climate policy, and the specific consequences of various climate policies for the agricultural, automotive, and buildings sectors.NBER-Conference ReportClimatic changesGovernment policyUnited StatesCongressesGlobal warmingGovernment policyUnited StatesCongressesClimatic changesGovernment policyEconomic aspectsUnited StatesCongressesGlobal warmingGovernment policyEconomic aspectsUnited StatesCongressesElectronic books.Climatic changesGovernment policyGlobal warmingGovernment policyClimatic changesGovernment policyEconomic aspectsGlobal warmingGovernment policyEconomic aspects363.738/745610973Fullerton Don119601Wolfram Catherine D919315MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465383203321The design and implementation of US climate policy2061834UNINA
