No-regret Pollution Abatement Options: A Correction of Bréchet and Jouvet (2009)

Antonin Pottier and Adrien Nguyen-Huu

Post-Print from HAL

Abstract: In "Why environmental management may yield no-regret pollution abatement options", Ecological Economics, 2009, Bréchet and Jouvet claim to have theoretically shown that profits maximizing firms can reduce pollution compared to laissez-faire and increase their profits. We correct multiple errors in their paper, with the conclusion that their claim no longer stands.
