. Both Wisconsin and Illinois border Lake Michigan. The lake is becoming polluted and both states are deciding whether or not to clean it. If Wisconsin decides to clean the lake it will cost 1200 and generate social benefits of 1500 – however, Wisconsin will receive only 1100 of those social benefits while neighbor Illinois will receive the other 400. If Illinois cleans the lake, it will cost them 700 and generate social benefits of 900 – however, Illinois will receive only 600 of those benefits, Wisconsin will receive the remaining 300. If a state does not clean the lake, it experiences a cost of $0. If both states clean the lake, the payoffs will be A. Wisconsin gains 100, Illinois gains 200B. Wisconsin gains 200, Illinois gains 300C. Wisconsin gains 200, Illinois loses 100D. Wisconsin gains 100, Illinois loses 100

A country called Sherwood is very heavily covered with a forest of 50,000 trees. There are proposals to clear some of Sherwoods forest and grow com, but obtaining this additional economic output will have an environmental cost from reducing the number of trees. Table 12.11 shows possible combinations of economic output and environmental protection. Sketch a graph of a production possibility frontier with environmental quality on the horizontal axis, measured by the number of trees, and the quantity of economic output, measured in corn, on the vertical axis. Which choices display productive efficiency? How can you tell? Which choices show allocative efficiency? How can you tell? In the choice between T and R, decide which one is better. Why? In the choice between T and S, can you say which one is better, and why? If you had to guess, which choice would you think is more likely to represent a command-and-control environmental policy and which choice is more likely to represent a market-oriented environmental policy, choice Q or S? Why?
Consider two approaches to reducing emissions of CO2 into the environment from manufacturing industries in the United States. In the first approach, the U.S. government makes it a policy to use only predetermined technologies. In the second approach, the U.S. government determines which technologies are cleaner and subsidizes their use. Of the two approaches, which is the command-and-control policy?

qs abiv 30 ovo pilo 5. Oil spills from oceangoing tankers are rare but bring huge damages to coastlines when they occur within 200 miles of shore. Unfortunately, most tanker spills do occur on or near coasts. Rank the following alternatives according to how efficient they are in i jud, responding to the threat of oil spills. Explain your ranking. a. Each nation with an endangered coastline should impose a tax on all imported oil, a tax that raises enough revenue to compensate for any oil-spill damages. b. Each coastal nation should impose a tax on all domestically purchased oil, a tax that raises enough revenue to compensate for any oil-spill damages. c. Oil-carrying companies should be legally liable for all damages, in the courts of the countries whose national waters are polluted by the spills. d. Each coastal nation should intercept all oil tankers in national waters and charge them a fee that will cover the estimated costs of future oil spills.
How do taxes, pollution charges, and cap-and-trade work to reduce emissions? When a cap-and-trade is implemented _______.
Suppose the following functions represent the marginal abatement cost (MAC) and marginal damage (MD) functions of an electricity generation plant emitting Sulphur Dioxide. MAC = 60 – 4E MD = 2E E represents the level of emissions, measured in tons per month. Currently, there is no emission control, and no abatement occurs.
Assume that the market for tradable emissions permits by power plants has been operating efficiently for severalyears. An engineering firmthen invents a lower cost device for pollution abatement. What happens to theequilibrium market price of a tradable permit, and why? Draw a supply and demand diagram, with a fixedsupply of pollution permits, along with your answer.Has the socially optimal amount of pollution increasedor decreased? Explain
