Damian, M. (2014). Robert Stavins on the carbon-pricing regime, The New York Times, 1 June 2014 : dodgy arguments. Economics and Policy of Energy and the Environment, vol. LVI, n° 1, pp. 53-61Draft de l’article sur Hal : http://hal.univ-grenoble-alpes.fr/hal-01092751v1Abstract :This commentary discusses the opinion piece published on 1 June 2014 by Professor Robert Stavins in The New York Times. Professor Robert Stavins argues that "The Only Feasible Way of Cutting Emissions" is to set up a market for tradable permits. We review and criticize his mains arguments. Our purpose here is not to deny the possibility of carbon trading, but to call for a realistic assessment of the deployment of cap-and-trade systems and their limitations.
