The presence of recalcitrant contaminants in water bodies such as heavy metals, dyes,
pharmaceutical compounds, and chemical residuals results in water pollution. This requires …

Use of nitrogen-and phosphorus-based synthetic fertilizers shows an increasing trend, but
this has led to large-scale influx of reactive nitrogen in the environment, with serious …

We estimate the causal effects of acute fine particulate matter exposure on mortality, health
care use, and medical costs among the US elderly using Medicare data. We instrument for …

Fossil fuels account for more than 80% of the world's energy consumption. Constituents of
the atmosphere have changed perceptibly due to the increased use of fossil fuels …

We combine a theoretical discrete-choice model of vehicle purchases, an econometric
analysis of electricity emissions, and the AP2 air pollution model to estimate the geographic …

Waste-to-energy systems can play an important role in diverting organic waste from landfills.
However, real-world waste management can differ from idealized practices, and emissions …

A global chemistry-climate model has been used to study the impacts of pollutants released
by agriculture on fine-particulate matter (PM 2.5), with a focus on Europe, North America …

Generating electricity from renewable sources is more expensive than conventional
approaches but reduces pollution externalities. Analyzing the tradeoff is much more …

This study presents a framework to include environmental externalities into a system of
national accounts. The paper estimates the air pollution damages for each industry in the …

Attempting to gain insights from how alternative fuel technologies employed in heavy-duty
trucks (HDTs) differ with respect to their life-cycle emissions, costs, and externalities …
