Chapter 31 Environmental Economics
2.
Introduction “Cap and trade”
is an approach to air-pollution control under which governments place a limit on allowed emissions, create rights to emit polluting substances, and permit firms to trade those rights in a free market. A cap and trade program applied to sulfur dioxide emissions from electrical plants in the U.S. has reduced polluting emissions by one-half. This program recently collapsed, however. What can be learned from the breakdown of this program? You will explore this question in Chapter 31. Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-2
3.
Learning Objectives • Distinguish
between private costs and social costs • Understand market externalities and possible ways to correct externalities • Explain how economists can conceptually determine the optimum quantity of pollution Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-3
4.
Learning Objectives (cont'd) •
Contrast the roles of private and common property rights in alternative approaches to addressing the problem of pollution • Describe how many of the world’s governments are seeking to reduce pollution by capping and controlling the use of pollution generating resources • Discuss how the assignment of property rights may influence the fates of endangered species Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-4
5.
Chapter Outline • • • • • Private versus
Social Costs Correcting for Externalities Pollution Common Property Reducing Humanity’s Carbon Footprint: Restraining Pollution-Causing Activities • Wild Species, Common Property and Tradeoffs Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-5
6.
Did You Know
That ... • By 2025, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will require all passenger vehicles to operate at an average of 54.5 miles per gallon? • This improvement in fuel economy will translate into a 10 percent increase in the average price of a vehicle. • Economists want to help policymakers and citizens opt for informed policies that have the maximum possible net benefits. • As you will see, every decision made in favor of “the environment” involves a trade-off. Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-6
7.
Private versus Social
Costs • Private Costs – Costs borne solely by the individuals who incur them – Also called internal costs Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-7
8.
Private versus Social
Costs (cont'd) • Social Costs – The full costs borne by society whenever a resource use occurs – Measured by adding internal to external costs Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-8
9.
Private versus Social
Costs (cont'd) • Environmental issues occur when social costs exceed private cost • The cost of polluted air—consider both private and social costs • Question – What if you had to pay the social cost of driving a car? Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-9
10.
Private versus Social
Costs (cont'd) • Externality – A situation in which a private cost (or benefit) diverges from a social cost (or benefit) – A situation in which the costs (or benefits) of an action are not fully borne (or gained) by the two parties engaged in a scarce-resource-using activity Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-10
11.
Figure 31-1 Reckoning
with Full Social Costs Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-11
12.
Correcting for Externalities •
An externality arises when there is a divergence between private cost and social cost • The remedy is to change the signal for decision making • In the case of industrial pollution, the firm must be forced to internalize the cost of the environmental damage Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-12
13.
Correcting for Externalities
(cont'd) • The polluters’ choice 1. Install pollution abatement equipment or change production techniques 2. Reduce pollution-causing activity 3. Pay the price to pollute Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-13
14.
Correcting for Externalities
(cont'd) • Is a uniform tax appropriate? – It may be appropriate to levy a uniform tax, as external costs might vary from location to location – We must establish the amount of economic damages; we have to come up with a measure of economic costs Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-14
15.
Pollution • Question – How
much pollution is too much? • Answer – The optimal quantity is determined by a comparison of marginal costs and benefits. Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-15
16.
Pollution (cont'd) • Optimal
Quantity of Pollution – The level of pollution for which the marginal benefit of one additional unit of pollution abatement just equals the marginal cost of that additional unit Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-16
17.
Figure 31-2 The
Optimal Quantity of Air Pollution Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-17
18.
Policy Example: Raising
the Marginal Cost of U.S. Air Pollution Abatement • Coal-fired plants generate nearly half of all electricity produced in the United States each year. • The Environmental Protection Agency has issued regulations that require 20 percent of these plants to shut down or be retro-fitted with scrubbers in 2015. Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-18
19.
Policy Example: Raising
the Marginal Cost of U.S. Air Pollution Abatement (cont’d) • Estimates indicate that the additional cost to the electrical power industry and its customers of complying with this requirement will be about $30 billion per year through the end of the 2010s. • Thus, attaining a hoped-for higher degree of air cleanliness will entail a higher marginal cost of pollution abatement for society. Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-19
20.
Common Property • Private
Property Rights – Exclusive rights of ownership that allow the use, transfer, and exchange of property Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-20
21.
Common Property (cont'd) •
Common Property – Property that is owned by everyone and therefore by no one • Examples are air and water Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-21
22.
Common Property (cont'd) •
Question – What do you think: Why does pollution occur when property rights are poorly defined? • Answer – When no one owns a particular resource, no one has any incentive (conscience aside) to consider misusing it. Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-22
23.
Common Property (cont'd) •
Voluntary agreements and transactions costs – Is it possible for externalities to be internalized via voluntary agreement? – What are the costs incurred by the parties who seek to negotiate an agreement? Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-23
24.
Common Property (cont'd) •
Voluntary agreements and transactions costs – Voluntary agreements: contracting – Opportunity cost always exists, whoever has property rights Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-24
25.
Common Property (cont'd) •
Voluntary agreements and transactions costs – Transaction Costs • All costs associated with making, reaching, and enforcing agreements – Must be low relative the expected benefits Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 31-25
26.
Common Property (cont'd) •

Reducing Humanity’s Carbon
Footprint: Restraining Pollution-Causing Activities • Mixing government controls and market processes: cap and trade – In light of the costs arising from spillovers that polluting activities create, one solution might seem to be for governments to try to stop them from taking place – Why don’t more governments simply require businesses and households to cut back on pollution-causing activities?

Reducing Humanity’s Carbon
Footprint: Restraining Pollution-Causing Activities (cont’d) • Kyoto Protocol (1997) aims to reduce overall emissions of greenhouse gases by 2020 by as much as 20% below 1990 levels • The EU’s Emissions Trading Scheme (2005) – Each EU nation is established an allowance of emissions that a company can release – If a firm exceeds its limit, it must purchase additional allowances (at the market clearing price) from companies who are emitting less than their quota Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Policy Example: California
Dreaming: A Western Cap-and-Trade Pact? • Preceding implementation of California’s cap-and-trade program, state officials tried to persuade governments of other western states to enter into a “regional cap-andtrade pact.” • Every state that California officials approached said no, however, as the induced reduction in the energy supply would bring about higher energy prices.

Policy Example: California
Dreaming: A Western Cap-and-Trade Pact? (cont’d) • Most estimates indicate the costs will amount to hundreds of dollars per household per year. • Businesses will face significant cost increases as well, which may decrease employment. • Some California firms may respond to higher energy costs by moving their operations to other western states.

International Example: Passengers
Help to Pay for Emissions on EU Airline Routes • In 2012, the European Union implemented a new, independently administered cap-andtrade program aimed at reducing carbon emissions from airplane engines. • The EU allocated pollution total allowances to each airline operating at EU airports. • To exceed its limit, an airline can purchase allowances from another airline that has total emissions below its allowances.

Reducing Humanity’s Carbon
Footprint: Restraining Pollution-Causing Activities (cont'd) • Are there alternatives to pollution-causing resource use? – Why aren’t we shifting to solar panels and electric cars? – The plain fact is that the cost of generating solar power in many circumstances is much higher than generating that same power through conventional means – In addition, the manufacturing of solar panels could itself cause pollution Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Wild Species, Common
Property, and Trade-Offs • One of the most distressing common property problems involves endangered species • Virtually all species not endangered are private property (dogs, cats, cattle, sheep and horses) • Endangered species (spotted owls, bighorn sheep and condors) are typically common property Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Wild Species, Common
Property, and Trade-Offs (cont'd) • In 1973, the federal government passed the Endangered Species Act in an attempt to keep species from dying out • As more and more species were put on the endangered list, a trade-off became apparent Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

What If .
. . Governments allowed people to own endangered animals as private property? • If endangered animals could be owned as private property, some of them undoubtedly would be mishandled. • Nevertheless, they are also scarce resources that have positive values in private markets. • This would provide incentives for the life of these animals and health of the species to be preserved.

A Mayor Faces the Grimy Economics of Trash Removal • For Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel, how to go about moving trash for disposal or recycling has become a substantial economic issue. • Currently, the trash removal system in Chicago is different for each one of the city’s 50 wards. • Emanuel examines a study that proposes a reorganization of the city’s trash removal procedures. The study suggests that switching to a more efficient citywide system for trash disposal and recycling could accomplish the same task each year with 25 percent fewer workers and at an annual cost savings of $40 million.

Issues & Applications:
The New Sulfur Dioxide “Cap and Fade” Program • For years, coal-fired electrical-power-generating plants in Midwestern states emitted smoke containing sulfur dioxide. These emissions have contributed to a phenomenon known as “acid rain”. • In 1995, the U.S. government placed a cap on emissions of sulfur dioxide states. • A fixed number of emission allowances were handed out to the electric utilities. If firms reduced emissions by switching to low-sulfur coals or by adding emission-control equipment, they could sell unused allowances to other electrical-power producers.

Issues & Applications:
The New Sulfur Dioxide “Cap and Fade” Program • By 2005, the equilibrium price of a sulfur-dioxideemission allowance had reached $1,600. This price was sufficiently high to induce many firms to reduce their emissions. • In 2008, however, the EPA began ordering plant operators to cut back directly on their emissions. The EPA also decided not to allow firms to purchase allowances to avoid the new emissions restrictions. • Since then, the equilibrium price of a sulfur dioxide-emission allowance has “faded away” to zero—hence the new “cap and fade” term used to describe the program.

Summary Discussion of
Learning Objectives (cont'd) • Restraining pollution-causing activities through caps and allowances – The EU has established the Emissions Trading Scheme – Each EU nation’s government establishes an overall target level of greenhouse gas emissions and distributes allowances, granting companies the right to emit a certain amount of gases – If exceeded, the company must purchase more allowances from firms emitting less than their quota Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Summary Discussion of
Learning Objectives (cont'd) • Endangered species and the assignment of property rights – Animals that are privately owned (e.g., dogs and livestock are abundant) • Owners have incentives to take care of these animals – Wild animals are common property resources and many are endangered because no one has an incentive to protect these animals Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
