The core of the 36th round of the Energy Modeling Forum project shows that it is more likely that major fossil-fuel exporters, such as the Middle East, are highly affected because of the decrease in fossil-fuel extractions required for the worldwide fulfillment of the Paris agreement. We employ a multi-region, multi-sector computable general equilibrium model of global trade and energy to examine the ...

So far, scientific analyses have mainly focused on the pros and cons of solar geoengineering or solar radiation management (SRM) as a climate policy option in mere isolation. Here, we put SRM into the context of mitigation by a strictly temperature-target-based approach. As the main innovation, we present a scheme that extends the applicability regime of temperature targets from mitigation-only to ...

Side effects of “solar-radiation management” (SRM) might be perceived as an important metric when society decides on implementing SRM as a climate policy option to alleviate anthropogenic global warming. We generalize cost-risk analysis that originally trades off expected welfare loss from climate policy costs and risks from transgressing climate targets to also include risks from applying SRM. In ...

Governments across the world have implemented restrictive policies to slow the spread of COVID-19. Recommended face mask use has been a controversially discussed policy, among others, due to potential adverse effects on physical distancing. Using a randomized field experiment (N = 300), we show that individuals kept a significantly larger distance from someone wearing a face mask than from an unmasked ...

DIW Discussion Papers 1997 / 2022
Housing affordability is a hotly debated issue on global scale. A lack of affordable housing of decent quality is a chronic problem in urban areas. Governments try to alleviate it by stimulating homeownership among middle-income households and providing social housing for the low-income households. Such policies are very costly. Thus, this study aims to assess at least tentatively the effectiveness ...

DIW Discussion Papers 1996 / 2022
A number of studies show that there is a link between social comparison and high levels of household debt. However, the exact mechanisms behind this link are not yet well understood. In this paper, we disentangle two mechanisms by performing a lab experiment designed to study the effects of social image concerns and peer information on consumption choices financed through debt taking. We find that ...

Dieser Beitrag erschien im Handelsblatt.
Die Volksrepublik hat trotz einiger Stärken das Potenzial, die nächste Weltfinanzkrise auszulösen, warnt Marcel Fratzscher. Selten war die wirtschaftliche Zukunft so schwer vorherzusehen wie in der Corona-Krise. Zu viele Unwägbarkeiten und mangelnde Erfahrung im Umgang mit Pandemien erleichtern es Politik und Wissenschaft nicht gerade, die Risiken in ihrer ...

DIW Discussion Papers 1998 / 2022
Data is often at the core of digital products and services, especially when related to online advertising. This has made data protection and privacy a major policy concern. When surfing the web, consumers leave digital traces that can be used to build user profiles and infer preferences. We quantify the extent to which Facebook can track web behavior outside of their own platform. The network of engagement ...

Studie vergleicht drei Szenarien zur Schaffung einer fossilfreien Energieversorgung – Kosten für direkte Elektrifizierung der Wirtschaft sind niedriger als umfangreicher Einsatz von Wasserstoff oder synthetischen Gasen – Sämtliche Szenarien erfordern einen beschleunigten Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien – Transformation erfordert klare Rahmenbedingungen für Investitionen ...
