Abstract:
... Beginning in 2023, allowances held in the market stability reserve of the EU ETS above the number of allowances auctioned the previous year will be cancelled. In this paper, we analyse the consequences of this new cancellation mechanism. Using numerical analysis, we show that additional national abatement measures now have the potential to reduce total EU ETS emissions. A key insight is that, for ...

Abstract:
... Europeans proclaim a readiness to engage for solidarity in support of others, even across their most immediate environment. However, our knowledge is rather limited on how widespread transnational European solidarity might be. Additionally, we do not know what kinds of beliefs and ideas are patterning cognitively the popular conceptions of transnational European solidarity. This article aims to pr ...

Abstract:
... This paper puts forward a research agenda for the study of the Voluntary Partnership Agreements (VPAs). These agreements form the backbone of the European Union's (EU) external forest governance. The data-driven literature review of the current scholarship on the VPAs shows a preoccupation with either the design of the VPAs or their (adverse) impact. What remains in the margins however is an inqui ...

Abstract:
... Raising interest in ‘nature-based solutions’ (NBS) has inspired attempts to organise their principles and qualities within comprehensive and internally consistent evaluation frameworks, so as to demonstrate the superior performance of ‘working with nature’. However, the proposed frameworks stop short of taking into account the changing conditions in which NBS are set to operate. Climate change, in ...

Abstract:
... We propose a new identification strategy to assess the efficacy of macroprudential measures. We use a novel instrumental variable based on the idea that a politically sensitive macroprudential measure is more likely to be implemented if a politically independent institution, such as a central bank, is in charge. Our results show that borrower-based macroprudential measures have had a strong and st ...

Abstract:
... Unambiguous evidence for the effectiveness of muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus L.) control in well-established populations in mainland Europe is lacking. Yet, this evidence is important given ongoing public challenges to the need for muskrat control and the expressed political aim of the European Union to eradicate invasive alien species, including the muskrat. In this study, indices of muskrat abundan ...
