Econ2216 (2013): Assignment #1 Market Failure Due to Externalities Ruth Forsdyke Due: Monday, Jan. 28th in class. For algebraic questions, please show all work and use short sentences to guide reader through your work. Please use graph paper on page 4 for Problem 2. Problem 1: Dire Predictions (use DP to answer questions/ please be brief) a) Look at the picture of the Florida Keys on page 62 of DP. During the last interglacial period between 130,000 and 114,000 years ago, these were coral reefs. How much higher was the sea level estimated to be based on DP? During the depth of the last ice age, how much lower were the sea levels? b) Look at the three types of Milankovitch orbital cycles pictures on page 63. Which orbital cycle change is thought to have initiated the end of the last ice age? c) List two feedbacks which amplified the effect in b. d) How high were the ice caps which covered most of Canada and the Northern US during the last ice age? (pg. 62) e) Increasing GHGs increases the rate at which water evaporates to become water vapour which forms clouds. Clouds reflect light back to space if they are low but trap heat if they are high. Overall, models suggest that clouds cool the Earth. Is this an example of a negative or positive feedback effect? (pg. 25). f) When GHGs rise, it gets hotter in summer and in equatorial countries. People then use their air conditioners more. Is this an example of a negative or positive feedback loop? Draw a “systems diagram” to illustrate. See lecture note 2. g) We discussed ice core proxy measures which allow scientists to estimate temperatures and GHG concentrations going back 800,000 years. Fossils are another type of proxy measure, which allow estimates to be made even further back in time. Briefly explain how scientists use fossil ferns to get proxies of past temperatures going back tens of millions of years. Based on such proxies, i) how high might the atmosphere’s carbon dioxide concentration rise to if we burn the estimated remaining fossil fuel reserves? How far back in time do we need to go to get estimates of CO2 that are this high? (pg. 42 – 43) h) Currently, the atmosphere’s concentration of carbon dioxide is 392 ppm. Based on the graph on page 41, how far back in time do we need to go to get CO2 concentrations that are this high. Based on the temperature graph immediately above the CO2 graph, how much higher were the polar temperatures relative to today? i) Based on pg 27, identify human caused sources of nitrous oxide (N2O). How long is the average N2O molecule expected to remain in the atmosphere? Problem 2: Kaya Equation a) Please go to the following World Bank website to get the population for China in 2002. http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SP.POP.TOTL?page=2 b) Consider the following numbers for China in 2002: Average GDP/capita = $ 4379/person CO2 emissions from energy use = 0.26483 tonnes CO2/megaWatthour.

Abstract This viewpoint discusses the intra- and international distribution of energy consumption and their implications for intergenerational equity. For global development to be sustainable, the inequality of energy consumption must have an upper limit. A graphic depiction of energy consumption distributions (intra- and international) shows that today’s inequalities are large andit is arguedthat we may have already reachedor perhaps even surpassed the sustainability limit of energy consumption inequality.

In 2001, the federal government enacted a law that forbade any student with a drug offense from receiving financial aid. Lovenheim and Owens (2014) study the effect of this law on college enrollment behavior by examining how enrollment among those with convictions changes relative to those without convictions in a difference-in-difference analysis. A difference-in- difference analysis takes two successive differences. The first difference is the difference between the pre and post treatment values of a group that underwent treatment and the difference between the pre and post treatment values of area group that did not undergo treatment. Once these two values are calculated, the difference between these differences is computed. 1. Using the provided information, calculate the differencein-difference estimate. ). Does the fact that college enrollment was rising throughout the United States for all students over the period cause a problem for their study? Write the regression formula that will allow you to estimate the difference-in-difference treatment effect. 1. How might selection bias the results?.

In 1626, Dutchman Peter Minuit purchased Manhattan Island from a local Native American tribe. Historians estimate that the price he paid for the island was about $24 worth of goods, including beads, trinkets, cloth, kettles, and axe heads. Many people find it laughable that Manhattan Island would be sold for $24, but you need to consider the future value (FV) of that price in more current times. If the $24 purchase price could have been invested at a 5.25% annual interest rate, what is its value as of 2012 (386 years later)?.

Imagine that you are an environmental scientist who has been hired to solve a groundwater contamination problem. Several homeowners have noticed that their well water has a funny smell and taste. Some think the contamination is coming from a landfill, but others think it might be a nearby cattle feedlot or chemical plant. Your first step is to gather data from wells in the area and prepare the map of the water table shown here. Think of the random blue dotted numbers as various residents homes and how these sites would be effected by the nearby potential contaminates. (use numbered sites as reference) 1. Based on your map, can any of the three potential sources of contamination be eliminated? If so, explain. 2. What other steps would you take to determine the source of the contamination? 3. List the common contaminates you would expect to find at those sites referenced. Explain your contaminant selection..
