This open access book evaluates, from an economic perspective,
various measures introduced in Japan to prevent climate change.
Although various countries have implemented such policies in
response to the pressing issue of climate change, the effectiveness
of those programs has not been sufficiently compared. In
particular, policy evaluations in the Asian region are far behind
those in North America and Europe due to data limitations and
political reasons. The first part of the book summarizes measures
in different sectors in Japan to prevent climate change, such as
emissions trading and carbon tax, and assesses their impact. The
second part shows how those policies have changed the behavior of
firms and households. In addition, it presents macro-economic
simulations that consider the potential of renewable energy.
Lastly, based on these comprehensive assessments, it compares the
effectiveness of measures to prevent climate change in Japan and
Western countries. Providing valuable insights, this book will
appeal to both academic researchers and policymakers seeking
cost-effective measures against climate change.
