THCB 20th Birthday classics: A Brief History of Price Controls by Annoyed Republican Administrations

This is one of my favorites, riffing on a talk I heard him give in (I think) 1993 about how HCFA was like the Kreml...

Carbon emissions trading schemes and economic growth: New evidence on the Porter Hypothesis from 285 China's prefecture-level cities
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Aug 16. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29266-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe Chinese government has established carbon emissions trading schemes (CETS) to cope with climate change and reduce carbon emissions. This paper uses the multi-period difference in difference (DID) model to explore the impact of CETS on cities' GDP and GDP growth rates in China based on data from 285 prefecture-level cities from 2008-2019. We find that CETS increase the level of GDP by 3.4% and the GDP growth rate by 0.004. The mechanism of increasing GDP includes promoting investment and innovation, and the mechanism ...
