Editorial Reviews
Review
– Mikael Skou Andersen, Aarhus University, Denmark and European Environment Agency
’Environmental taxation and emissions trading continue to be high on the public policy agenda in many countries, and this is another welcome and very interesting volume in the Critical Issues in Environmental Taxation series that presents new ideas and evidence on these subjects from a wide range of countries and a variety of perspectives.’
– Paul Ekins, University College London, UK
