It uses a newly developed dynamic general-equilibrium, overlapping-generations model of the US economy, combined with a more disaggregated model of near-term distributional impacts…

A new study by scholars at RFF shows that a substantial, broad-based, revenue-neutral tax on carbon dioxide emissions would have imperceptible effects on macroeconomic growth as measured by GDP. This is the same result as that reported by scholars at MIT in 2012 using an entirely different model of the US economy, and the same result reported earlier this year by scholars at the Brookings Institution using yet another model of the US economy…
