Cette note a pour but de présenter de manière synthétique les modèles mathématiques utilisés aujourd’hui par la communauté des économistes du climat et leurs limites. Ces modèles sont utilisés à la fois pour dimensionner les mesures à prendre pour limiter le changement climatique et pour évaluer les impacts du changement climatique sur le système économique et financier.
This paper explores the potential contribution of Sustainability-linked Money Creation (SMC) to sustainable economic policies. Our simulations suggest that, in comparison to a baseline scenario, SMC issues could potentially constitute an anti-inflationary, counter-cyclical green transition policy, that increases biomimetic resilience and contains income and wealth inequalities. We finally discuss the policy implications, as well as the limitations of our findings.
This paper advances the issue about the richest people contributing disproportionately to the increase in CO2 emissions, and thus to global warming by providing robust econometric validity. The method aims at. examining the effect of wealth accumulation on carbon emissions. Our regression estimates support the hypothesis that wealth concentration significantly increases carbon inequality and accounts for nearly 20% of the CO2 emissions of the richest people.
