GX & Decarbonization Research

Angelyn Fairchild

This dissertation provides three empirical studies on corporate decarbonization: only <20% of global firms reduce emissions efficiently. Stringent targets and top management control, but not carbon pricing, are linked to more impactful clim…

This study uses longitudinal input-output analysis to examine structural dynamics in the renewable energy economy, aiming to support a resilient energy transition.

Christine Cadigan

This paper examines the effectiveness of voluntary carbon markets for family forest owners (FFOs) in the United States. Using the Family Forest Carbon Program developed by AFF and TNC as a case study, it demonstrates how market-based conser…

This paper analyzes the short- and long-term effects of afforestation, energy productivity, renewable electricity generation, and nuclear electricity generation on CO2 emissions in BRICS countries from 1993 to 2021 using bootstrap cointegra…

Mehmet Recai Uygur

This paper investigates how green transition policy intensity and economic inequality interact to shape democratic legitimacy. Using panel data from European and OECD countries, it analyzes links between environmental policy stringency, dec…
