  • Finanzas sostenibles y el nuevo objetivo colectivo cuantificado

    Open AccessBC3 BC3, Elisa Sainz de Murieta et al.ARTICLEEkonomiaz Revista Vasca de Economía2024

    Este trabajo examina el desarrollo de las finanzas sostenibles como respuesta a los retos globales del cambio climático, la desigualdad social y la degradación ambiental, centrándose especialmente en la evolución conceptual de este campo y su conexión con la financiación climática. El trabajo analiza cómo hitos globales como el Acuerdo de París han impulsado una mayor consolidación y expansión del marco conceptual, permitiendo a las finanzas sost…

  • Short-haul flights ban in France

    Open AccessAndoni Txapartegi, Ignacio Cazcarro Castellano et al.ARTICLEEcological Economics2024References: 5

    The French government has taken a new measure of limiting the exercise of traffic rights to reduce emissions, in particular, the bill to ban short-haul flights where a train alternative of 2:30 h or less exists. Here we quantify the impact of this measure in economic and environmental terms. The results show that although this measure goes in the right direction, it is less effective than expected in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from d…

  • Accounting for the Effects of Employment, Equity, and Risk Aversion in Cost–Benefit Analysis

    Open AccessAmbika Markanday, Anil Markandya et al.ARTICLEJournal of Benefit-Cost Analysis2021Cited by: 1References: 11

    This paper sets out to explore to what extent integrating employment effects, equity, and risk aversion within cost–benefit analysis (CBA) affect the economic appraisal of a climate change adaptation project designed to protect against flood risk in a region of Bilbao (Basque Country, Spain). Four CBAs are conducted: (i) a standard CBA; (ii) a standard CBA considering equity; (iii) a standard CBA considering equity and employment; and (iv) a stan…

  • How well do climate adaptation policies align with risk-based approaches? An assessment framework for cities

    Open AccessElisa Sainz de Murieta, Ibon Galarraga et al.ARTICLECities2021Cited by: 1References: 56

    Many cities around the world are undertaking adaptation planning processes in contexts of considerable uncertainty due to climate risks. However, new evidence suggests that current adaptation policies are failing to fully incorporate risk-related information and knowledge. Understanding how policies account for current and future risks becomes crucial to assess whether they will effectively contribute to reduce vulnerability and increase resilien…

  • Financiando las políticas climáticas y de sostenibilidad

    Open AccessS L Metroeconomica, Itziar Ruiz Gauna et al.ARTICLEEkonomiaz Revista Vasca de Economía2020

    Las finanzas del clima se refieren al flujo de recursos financieros para luchar contra el cambio climático y contribuir al logro de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS). El mercado de deuda puede jugar un papel esencial mediante los bonos sostenibles. Para financiar proyectos alineados con los ODS y la Agenda Basque Country 2030, el Gobierno Vasco-Eusko Jaurlaritza emitió en 2018 bonos sostenibles por 500 millones de euros. Los objetivos …

  • Cambio climático, riesgo de inundación y medidas de adaptación

    Open AccessPablo Juárez, Sébastien Foudi et al.ARTICLEEkonomiaz Revista Vasca de Economía2020

    Las inundaciones suponen un importante riesgo para el bienestar de las personas por el gran impacto que causan. Por ello, distintas instituciones han emprendido planes para la mejora de sistemas de alerta y prevención, mejoras que requieren información lo más precisa posible sobre los riesgos a los que se enfrenta la población y el entorno, los cuales se definen como la combinación de la probabilidad de darse un determinado suceso y el daño que p…

  • Against the impairment argument

    Open AccessIbon Galarraga, Joona Räsänen et al.ARTICLEBioethics2020

    In an article of this journal, Perry Hendricks makes a novel argument for the immorality of abortion. According to his impairment argument, abortion is immoral because: (a) it is wrong to impair a fetus to the nth degree, such as causing the fetus to have fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS); (b) it is wrong to impair a fetus to the n +1 degree (to cause the fetus to be more impaired than to have FAS); (c) killing the fetus impairs the fetus to the n +1 …

  • Risk measures and the distribution of damage curves for 600 European coastal cities

    Open AccessLuis M Abadie, Ibon Galarraga et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2019

    A good understanding of climate change damages is vital to design effective adaptation policies and measures. Using a dataset of probabilistic sea-level rise and other of flood damages and protection cost curves for the 600 largest European coastal cities we generate stochastic damage curves and their distributions with and without adaptation. We apply the Generalized Extreme Value distribution to characterize the distributions and calculate two …

  • Addendum to ‘Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty

    Open AccessIbon Galarraga, Elisa Sainz de Murieta et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    This addendum adds to the analysis presented in 'Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities' Abadie et al (2017 Environ. Res. Lett. 12 014017). We propose to use the framework developed earlier to enhance communication and understanding of risks, with the aim of bridging the gap between highly technical risk management discussion to the public risk aversion debate. We also propose that t…

  • What Role Can Taxes and Subsidies Play in Changing Diets?

    Anil Markandya, Ibon Galarraga et al.ARTICLEFinanzArchiv2016

    The study examines the use of fiscal instruments to achieve a healthier diet while reducing CO2 emissions. The methodology is to minimize the deadweight losses in attaining a healthy diet. Given that the shift should not impose a large burden on the consumer, the analysis is conducted with a system of taxes and subsidies - a bonus-malus framework. The model generates heavy subsidies on carbohydrates and heavy taxes on red meats, which would be po…
