Aggregate emission intensity targets: Applications to the Paris Agreement
提出了总排放目标的概念，并比较了强度、总量和价格目标在成本效益和福利方面的优劣，发现对多数主要排放国而言，强度目标优于总量目标。
Abstract We develop the concept of aggregate emission targets, which are cost effectively implemented national emission goals, and welfare rank expected‐emission‐equivalent aggregate emission intensity, quantity, and price targets. As targets become more stringent, it is more likely that the intensity target dominates the quantity target. A higher correlation between a country's gross domestic product and emission intensity favors aggregate intensity over price and quantity targets. Concerns about global welfare favor the aggregate quantity target. Applying the ranking conditions to the top 12 CO 2 emitting nations, we obtain a robust finding that aggregate intensity targets dominate quantity targets for most of them.
