152. Altruism, Voluntary Contributions and Neutrality: The Case of Environmental Quality

Author

JOUVET, PIERRE-ANDRE, MICHEL, PHILIPPE, and PESTIEAU, PIERRE

Subjects
Pollution -- Economic aspects, Environmental policy -- Economic aspects, Pollution control industry -- Economic aspects, Tax policy -- Planning, Business, Business, general, Economics
Abstract

This paper develops an intertemporal model wherein production generates pollution, which is viewed by consumers as a public bad. There are two types of consumer: those who are altruistic and leave bequests to their children, and those who are pure life-cyclers. Both types voluntarily contribute to the quality of environment through environmental groups. It appears that, if bequests by altruists and voluntary contributions by all are positive, redistribution is neutral--which does not mean that pollution abatement and capital accumulation are optimal. To achieve optimality, one needs a tax on inheritance and a differential subsidy on all consumer contributions.
