Reducing CO2 emissions: a comparative input-output-study for Germany and the UK

The development of CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) emissions and econo- mic structural change are studied in a comprehensive input- output framework. First, the aims, concepts and methods of the study are outlined in Part I. Part II starts with the description of the problem of climate change and gives an empi...
