Innovation in agricultural sector Green House Gas abatement in NSW. This project aims to develop a land sector greenhouse gas abatement, food production and environmental economics model for NSW. We expect to identify innovation in carbon payment policy and brokerage business models to achieve agricultural GHG abatement, while simultaneously improving sustainability. Expected outcomes include evaluation of the innovations of expert landholders, related businesses and governments to find ways to ....Innovation in agricultural sector Green House Gas abatement in NSW. This project aims to develop a land sector greenhouse gas abatement, food production and environmental economics model for NSW. We expect to identify innovation in carbon payment policy and brokerage business models to achieve agricultural GHG abatement, while simultaneously improving sustainability. Expected outcomes include evaluation of the innovations of expert landholders, related businesses and governments to find ways to influence land use decisions. This should provide significant benefits to landholders, governments involved in land management and the public through increased productivity, profitability, biodiversity and ecosystem health in the context of future climate, agricultural commodity and carbon market uncertainties.Read moreRead less

Summary
The environmental costs and benefits of special economic zones. This project aims to evaluate the environmental impacts of the spatial concentration of firms. Taking advantage of increasing availability of geo-referenced economic data, the project will evaluate the environmental costs and benefits of policies to promote industrial clusters in China, India, and Colombia. The collected datasets will match trends in firm-level emissions imputed from accounting data to ambient pollution measures der ....The environmental costs and benefits of special economic zones. This project aims to evaluate the environmental impacts of the spatial concentration of firms. Taking advantage of increasing availability of geo-referenced economic data, the project will evaluate the environmental costs and benefits of policies to promote industrial clusters in China, India, and Colombia. The collected datasets will match trends in firm-level emissions imputed from accounting data to ambient pollution measures derived from ground monitors and satellites. This project will investigate the interactions between economic growth and industrial emissions, and provide recommendations based on a better understanding of whether industrial clusters mitigate or exacerbate local and global emissions from manufacturing.Read moreRead less

Summary
Energy Poverty and Policy Responses in Australia. This project aims to understand the factors influencing energy poverty in Australia. Using econometric methods, this project will examine: 1) the impact of life shocks and weather shocks on energy poverty, and 2) the impact of existing government programs and policies on energy poverty. This project expects to generate new knowledge on the pathways through which shocks and policies influence energy poverty. The outcomes include knowledge generati ....Energy Poverty and Policy Responses in Australia. This project aims to understand the factors influencing energy poverty in Australia. Using econometric methods, this project will examine: 1) the impact of life shocks and weather shocks on energy poverty, and 2) the impact of existing government programs and policies on energy poverty. This project expects to generate new knowledge on the pathways through which shocks and policies influence energy poverty. The outcomes include knowledge generation and dissemination of findings to key stakeholders. This project will provide significant benefits, including better understandings of energy poverty that can influence policy directly shaping the health and wellbeing of Australians and others vulnerable to energy poverty.Read moreRead less
