Tao Wang of Environmental Defense Fund and Swarthmore College reviews, “The Green Paradox: A Supply-Side Approach to Global Warming” by Hans-Werner Sinn. The EconLit Abstract of this book begins: “Updated English edition of Das grüne Paradoxon presents an approach to combating global warming based on regulating the supply of fossil fuels instead of the demand. Discusses why the Earth is getting warmer; reshaping the world's energy matrix; table or tank; the neglected supply side; and fighting the green paradox. Sinn is Professor of Economics and Public Finance at the University of Munich and President of the CESifo Group. Index.”

Green Paradox

Scholarship about the role of managed systems when considering the impacts of climate change, the environmental problem arising from polluting-resource use, the economic aspects of strategies to slow climate change, and the connection between climate change and economic growth has increased and consolidated, especially in recent years. The main objective of this chapter is to explore and describe the effects of climate policy on greenhouse gas emissions, the societal aspects of climate change, the technology-based determinants of green growth, and the productivity impacts of environmental quality. The results of the current chapter converge with prior research on the harmful results of climate change, reduced use of polluting inputs as a consequence of environmental policy, the prevailing governmental policies for fighting global warming, and measures to mitigate the temperature increase by reducing CO2 emissions.
