Última An Evaluation of Integrated Climate Protection Policies for the United States Ecology and Society Bernow, Stephen; Tellus Institute; sbernow@tellus.org; Duckworth, Max; Tellus Institute; maxd@tellus.org. This paper presents and discusses an integrated set of policies designed to reduce U.S. carbon emissions over the next four decades. This innovation path also aims to promote environmental quality, particularly by reducing emissions of criteria air pollutants, to reduce U.S. dependence on imported oil, and to induce technological innovation and diffusion in energy production and consumption. The innovation path would reduce economy-wide carbon emissions by 26% below baseline projections for 2010 and by 62% below baseline projections for 2030; this translates into 10% below 1990 levels in 2010 and 45% below 1990 levels in 2030. Emissions of criteria pollutants also would be significantly reduced, as would petroleum imports by the United States. Moreover,...

Ano: 1998 Insuring Against Losses from Transgenic Contamination: The Case of Pharmaceutical Maize AgEcon Ripplinger, David G.; Hayes, Dermot J.; Goggi, Susana; Lamkey, Kendall R.. Concerns about the risk of food supply contamination and the resulting financial losses have limited the development and commercialization of certain pharmaceutical plants. This article develops an insurance pricing model that helps translate these concerns into a cost-benefit analysis. The model first estimates the physical dispersal of maize pollen subject to a number of weather parameters. This distribution is then validated with the limited amount of currently available field trial data. The physical distribution is then used to calculate the premium for a fair-valued insurance policy that would fund the destruction of possibly contaminated fields. The flexible framework can be readily adapted to other crops, management practices, and regions.

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/37332 LOCAL SOCIOECONOMIC IMPACTS OF THE CONSERVATION RESERVE PROGRAM - SUMMARY AgEcon Hodur, Nancy M.; Leistritz, F. Larry; Bangsund, Dean A.. The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), first enacted in 1985, seeks to achieve both conservation and agricultural supply control objectives through voluntary, long-term (10 year contracts) retirement of cropland. By fall 2000, the program had enrolled about 31.4 million acres nationwide, and North Dakota ranked third among the states, with 3.2 million contracted acres, or 11 percent of the state's total cropland. Although long-term land retirement offers a variety of environmental benefits, as well as providing a stable income to participating landowners, large-scale land retirement can pose adverse economic impacts for nearby communities, primarily because agricultural supply and service sector businesses may be adversely affected. This study was... Tipo: Working or Discussion Paper Palavras-chave: Conservation Reserve Program (CRP); Cropland retirement; Socioeconomic impacts; Costs and benefits; Land Economics/Use.
