ABSTRACT This paper estimates the value of water quality for outdoor recreation in Wales, considering all beaches and rivers in the country, and accounting for the value accrued to existing visits and generated from new visits. The values were aggregated for the population and mapped to show where the benefits of improving water quality are higher. We used a revealed preference method that links models of choices of beaches and rivers with models of the monthly number of visits to all beaches and rivers. We found that improving water quality of a beach from good to excellent has an estimated value of £2.58 per existing visit and leads to an average 52% increase in the number of visits, resulting in an overall value of £199,164/month per person. Improving water quality of a beach from sufficient/poor to good has a smaller value and impact on number of visits. Improving water quality of a river stretch to above bad/poor has a value of £0.99 per existing visit and leads to a 64% increase in the number of visits, resulting in an overall value of £15,671/month per person. We discuss how the assumptions made in the analysis might affect these results.
摘要本文估计了威尔士户外娱乐的水质价值,考虑了该国所有的海滩和河流,并考虑了现有访问和新访问产生的价值。对人口的值进行汇总并绘制地图,以显示改善水质的好处更高。我们使用了一种揭示偏好的方法,将海滩和河流的选择模型与所有海滩和河流每月访问次数的模型联系起来。我们发现,将海滩的水质从良好改善到良好,估计每次现有访问的价值为2.58英镑,访问次数平均增加52%,因此每人每月的总价值为199164英镑。将海滩的水质从充足/较差改善为良好的价值较小,对访问次数的影响也较小。将河段水质改善至恶劣/较差以上,每次现有访问的价值为0.99英镑,访问次数增加64%,每人每月的总价值为15671英镑。我们讨论了分析中的假设可能如何影响这些结果。

ABSTRACT This study evaluates the effects of unit-based pricing (UBP) of municipal solid waste and a mandatory recycling (MR) policy on waste reduction, recycling, illegal dumping, and garbage tourism incidents in major municipalities of Taiwan by using a quasi-experimental framework. The results suggest that the UBP policy curbed the quantity of unsorted waste and increased disposal of biodegradable waste but did not significantly increase recycling. In contrast, the MR policy effectively boosted biodegradable waste and recycling but did not necessarily decrease the amount of unsorted waste. There was a temporary increase in illegal dumping following the UBP policy. No evidence indicates that waste was shipped to nearby urban municipalities that had no UBP policy but likely to a neighbor rural municipality. The efficiency of the UBP in Taiwan is also discussed and compared with similar programs in other countries in this study.
摘要本研究采用准实验框架,评估了台湾主要城市固体废物单位定价(UBP)和强制性回收(MR)政策对减少废物、回收、非法倾倒和垃圾旅游事件的影响。结果表明,UBP政策抑制了未分类废物的数量,增加了可生物降解废物的处理,但没有显著增加回收利用。相比之下,MR政策有效地促进了可生物降解的废物和回收,但不一定会减少未分类废物的数量。UBP政策实施后,非法倾倒垃圾的数量暂时增加。没有证据表明废物被运往附近没有UBP政策的城市,但很可能被运往邻近的农村。本文还讨论了台湾UBP的效率,并与其他国家的类似项目进行了比较。

ABSTRACT National park agencies in Africa often lack incentives to maximize revenue, despite the decline in conservation subsidies from the State. We explore the potential of pricing policy to generate funds for extensive conservation. We estimate recreation demand by international tourists for a popular South African park, calculate the consumer surplus and find the revenue-maximizing entrance fee. Our results suggest substantial underpricing and therefore significant forgone income. By charging low fees at popular parks despite increasing conservation mandates and declining conservation subsidies, national parks in developing countries are forgoing substantial revenue crucial for combating widespread biodiversity losses.
摘要:尽管国家的保护补贴有所减少,但非洲国家公园管理机构往往缺乏实现收入最大化的激励措施。我们探索定价政策的潜力,为广泛的保护筹集资金。我们估计了国际游客对南非热门公园的娱乐需求,计算了消费者盈余,并找到了收入最大化的入场费。我们的研究结果表明,定价严重偏低,因此损失了大量收入。尽管保护任务不断增加,保护补贴不断减少,但发展中国家的国家公园仍对受欢迎的公园收取较低的费用,从而放弃了对应对广泛的生物多样性损失至关重要的大量收入。

ABSTRACT Climate change adaptation is essential for coastal areas. This paper adds to the limited evidence on the trade-offs people are willing to make concerning coastal adaptation strategies along an entire coast of a state (Baltic Sea coast of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania). The trade-offs are conceptualised in a choice experiment in terms of six attributes: the extent of beach nourishment, dyke heightening, cliff protection, access to dunes, realignment of dykes and dunes, and cost in terms of a coastal protection levy. The attributes were selected and designed in close cooperation, among others, with governmental decision-makers. Accounting for preference heterogeneity, we identified three latent groups among the participants of a nationwide online survey in Germany. Respondents who prefer extensive changes, respondents who are willing to pay only for an increase in dyke height, and respondents who are unwilling to cover additional expenses for adaptation. The aggregated welfare measures indicate that an adaptation scenario Recreation ranks highest followed by Safety and Nature. However, the scenarios do not represent unequivocal alternatives and provide essential insights into peoples’ preferences not only to policymakers and the administration in the case study region.
适应气候变化对沿海地区至关重要。这篇论文补充了有限的证据,证明人们愿意在一个国家的整个海岸(梅克伦堡-西波美拉尼亚的波罗的海海岸)的沿海适应战略方面做出权衡。在一个选择实验中,根据六个属性对权衡进行了概念化:海滩营养程度、堤防加高、悬崖保护、进入沙丘的途径、堤防和沙丘的重新排列,以及海岸保护税的成本。这些属性是在与政府决策者等密切合作下选择和设计的。考虑到偏好异质性,我们在德国全国在线调查的参与者中确定了三个潜在群体。偏好广泛改变的受访者,只愿意为堤坝高度的增加付费的受访者,以及不愿意为适应支付额外费用的受访者。综合福利措施表明,适应情景娱乐排名最高,其次是安全和自然。然而,这些情景并不代表明确的替代方案,并提供了人们对案例研究地区决策者和政府偏好的基本见解。

The employment double dividend of environmental tax reforms: exploring the role of agent behaviour and social interaction 环境税改革的就业双重红利:代理人行为与社会互动的作用探析

ABSTRACT It has been long debated whether environmental tax reform (ETR), i.e. a revenue-neutral shift of the tax burden from labour to carbon emissions, can have a double dividend, in terms of climate and economic goals. So far this question has been addressed in public finance and environmental economics using models with rational and representative agents. Here we examine the relevance of deviating from these standard behavioural assumptions. Our motivation is that research from other fields indicates that impacts of both environmental and income taxation on households are sensitive to behavioural biases, such as habits, imitation or status seeking. A related feature is that consumers and firms are heterogeneous with respect to many characteristics, some of which are crucial for the distributional effects of a tax reform. We combine insights from social psychology and behavioural, evolutionary and labour economics to identify behavioural cases in which the impacts of an ETR is likely to differ significantly from those in the traditional framework. Our findings show that households’ time use patterns and the distinction between extensive and intensive labour supply are relevant and deserve more attention.
摘要长期以来,人们一直在争论环境税改革(ETR)是否能在气候和经济目标方面产生双重红利,即税收负担从劳动力向碳排放的收入中性转变。到目前为止,这个问题已经在公共财政和环境经济学中使用具有理性和代表性代理人的模型来解决。在这里,我们研究偏离这些标准行为假设的相关性。我们的动机是,其他领域的研究表明,环境税和所得税对家庭的影响对行为偏见很敏感,如习惯、模仿或地位追求。一个相关的特征是,消费者和企业在许多特征方面是异质的,其中一些特征对税收改革的分配效果至关重要。我们结合了社会心理学和行为、进化和劳动经济学的见解,以确定ETR的影响可能与传统框架中的影响显著不同的行为案例。我们的研究结果表明,家庭的时间使用模式以及广泛和密集劳动力供应之间的区别是相关的,值得更多关注。

ABSTRACT A growing number of studies investigated the effects of additional consequentiality scripts on respondents’ willingness-to-pay (WTP) and/or their beliefs in the survey arena. However, these works barely provide a clear distinction between policy and payment consequentiality, despite the possible varying effects of these two alternative beliefs. This study explored the impacts of additional policy and payment consequentiality scripts on respondents’ WTP and stated beliefs using a split-sample approach. Econometric analyses revealed that the policy and payment consequentiality scripts had significantly positive and negative impacts on respondents’ voting behaviours, respectively. Especially, the latter script was more influential than the former one. The payment consequentiality script was also found to be significantly effective in improving respondents’ stated payment consequentiality beliefs. These results suggest that emphasising payment consequentiality of a survey is important to encourage respondents to exhibit more careful attitudes towards a hypothetical scenario, thereby reducing some forms of bias in stated preference methods.
摘要越来越多的研究调查了额外的后果性脚本对受访者支付意愿和/或他们在调查领域的信念的影响。然而,尽管这两种替代信念可能产生不同的影响,但这些工作几乎没有明确区分政策和支付后果。本研究采用分样本方法探讨了额外政策和支付后果脚本对受访者的WTP和陈述信念的影响。计量经济学分析显示,政策和支付后果脚本分别对受访者的投票行为产生了显著的积极和消极影响。尤其是后一个剧本比前一个更有影响力。支付后果性脚本也被发现在改善受访者陈述的支付后果性信念方面显著有效。这些结果表明,强调调查的支付后果性对于鼓励受访者对假设情景表现出更谨慎的态度很重要,从而减少既定偏好方法中的某些形式的偏见。

Carbon flux and N- and M-shaped environmental Kuznets curves: evidence from international land use change 碳通量与N型和M型环境库兹涅茨曲线:来自国际土地利用变化的证据

ABSTRACT Economic growth can affect land use change to release or sequester carbon, intensifying or mitigating the impact of other carbon emissions, and the functional form of that relationship is important to crafting policy responses. Data on land use and land cover change (LULCC) for 14 countries reveal an N – or M-shaped environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) for LULCC carbon flux to/from the atmosphere in some nations, while others display very different relationships. Most nations studied show some variation of the inverted-U EKC. All but one nation display initial turning points ranging from $2,000 to $9,000 per capita GDP (2011 dollars), and half are now net negative carbon emitters with respect to LULCC. For the US, regression analysis of the LULCC EKC indicates a roughly M-shaped quartic EKC function, with local maxima at about $3,700 and $45,700 and a local minimum at about $29,400. Where N-shaped EKCs are observed, the carbon sequestration from increasing forest regrowth is transient, and may be followed by a phase in which rising aggregate emissions dominate slowing sequestration in maturing forests. An M-shaped EKC indicates a third turning point, representing a return to increased net carbon absorption.
摘要经济增长可以影响土地利用变化以释放或封存碳,从而加剧或减轻其他碳排放的影响,而这种关系的功能形式对制定政策应对措施很重要。14个国家的土地利用和土地覆盖变化数据显示,一些国家的土地使用和土地覆盖碳流入/流出大气层的情况呈N型或M型环境库兹涅茨曲线,而另一些国家则显示出截然不同的关系。研究的大多数国家都显示出倒U型EKC的一些变化。除一个国家外,所有国家的人均国内生产总值(2011年美元)都出现了2000美元至9000美元的初始转折点,其中一半国家现在是LULCC的净负碳排放国。对于美国,LULCC EKC的回归分析表明大致M形四次EKC函数,局部最大值约为3700美元和45700美元,局部最小值约为29400美元。在观察到N型EKC的情况下,森林再生增加带来的碳固存是短暂的,随后可能会出现一个阶段,即总排放量的增加主导了成熟森林中碳固存的减缓。M形EKC表示第三个转折点,代表净碳吸收量的增加。

An M-shaped EKC indicates a third turning point, representing a return to increased net carbon absorption.","PeriodicalId":44903,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Economics and Policy","volume":"10 1","pages":"155 - 174"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2020-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/21606544.2020.1809527","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46900698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT Recent findings in behavioural sciences suggest that individuals may engage more in pro-social behaviour if they are prompted to reflect on how they will be remembered. Using experimental survey data with a between-subjects design, we examine the relevance of activating legacy concerns in the context of small businesses. More precisely, we investigate farmers’ intention to participate in conservation programmes for the sake of legacy. While the legacy effect is not found to be stronger than another priming manipulation at the global level, it is significant among first-generation farmers as opposed to multi-generation farmers. Inherited family farms are more prone to be influenced by non-environmental legacies whereas first-generation farmers can be more interested in leaving an environmental legacy.
摘要行为科学的最新发现表明,如果促使个人反思如何被记住,他们可能会更多地参与亲社会行为。使用实验调查数据和受试者之间的设计,我们检验了在小企业背景下激活遗留问题的相关性。更确切地说,我们调查农民为了遗产而参与保护计划的意图。虽然在全球范围内,遗产效应并不比另一种启动操纵更强,但与多代农民相比,它在第一代农民中意义重大。继承的家庭农场更容易受到非环境遗产的影响,而第一代农民可能更感兴趣留下环境遗产。

ABSTRACT Religion is one of the most prominent social institutions in the world and is profoundly entangled with day to day activities of the majority of the population. However, the effect of religion on socio-economic and environmental dimensions of development is not yet well explored in literature. Thus, this study aims to investigate the influence of multiple indicators of religion on pro-environmental behaviour and attitudes, and whether its effect varies across different income categories of countries. To this end, we use the World Value Survey data from up to 212,995 respondents across 91 countries collected from 1989 to 2014. The results of the study show that religion induces pro-environmental behaviour. Religion promotes individuals' willingness to contribute money and dampens individuals' protest against contributing for environmental protection. Similarly, religion has a positive effect on ecological donation and participation in the environmental demonstration. Furthermore, the results of this study indicate that the effects of some of the religious indicators on stated willingness to contribute for environmental protection are more pronounced in low-income countries than countries in high-income categories. These results highlight the importance of religion on environmental protection and suggest that integrating religion into environmental policies and programs may yield better environmental outcomes.
宗教是世界上最重要的社会机构之一,与大多数人的日常活动密切相关。然而,宗教对发展的社会经济和环境方面的影响尚未在文献中得到很好的探讨。因此,本研究旨在探讨宗教的多个指标对亲环境行为和态度的影响,以及其影响是否因不同收入类别的国家而异。为此,我们使用了1989年至2014年从91个国家收集的多达212,995名受访者的世界价值调查数据。研究结果表明,宗教会诱发亲环境行为。宗教促进了个人捐款的意愿,抑制了个人反对为环境保护捐款的抗议。同样,宗教对生态捐赠和参与环境示威也有积极的影响。此外,本研究的结果表明,一些宗教指标对环境保护意愿的影响在低收入国家比高收入国家更为明显。这些结果突出了宗教对环境保护的重要性,并表明将宗教纳入环境政策和项目可能会产生更好的环境结果。
