Abstract

We show that in a non-cooperative transboundary pollution game, a cleaner technology (i.e., a decrease in the emission to output ratio) induces each country to increase its emissions and ultimately can yield a higher level of pollution and reduce social welfare. Keywords: transboundary pollution, technological innovation, differential game JEL Classification: Q55
