Natural Gas and Climate Change Policies
Massimo Tavoni ()
Review of Environment, Energy and Economics - Re3, 2015
Abstract:
The development of unconventional gas extraction has led to significant declines in gas prices, recently followed by a large drop of oil prices. This is also the year which is supposed to deliver the long awaited post 2020 climate agreement. This article brings different pieces of research together, delving on both issues. First, we review the regional implications of a possible agreement at the UNFCCC meeting in Paris. We assess the impact of abundant natural gas on climate change. Finally, we conclude with an analysis of the interplay of natural gas and climate policy in Europe.
