Abstract :
Recently, carbon emission abatement has been a key focus for environment-related policy making. However, it is very difficult for governments to set an appropriate abatement target and for economists to estimate how much emission reduction investment should be put. This paper first reviews existed measures of carbon emission abatement, and then surveys and argues emission-related research topics. Finally, several future research issues are suggested. Through this paper, we hope that it offers a guide to policy makers, and some insights and new issues to researchers as well.
