Johnson Title: The Cost of Australian Carbon Dioxide Abatement Classification-JEL: F0 Pages: 135-152 Volume: Volume 12 Issue: Number 2 Year: 1991 Abstract: This paper examines efficient means of abating the greenhouse effect in Australia by reducing the emissions of CO2. It examines the generation of CO2 emissions from fossil fuels in Australia, and analyses means to cut emissions from electricity generation and road transport. Finally, it calculates the cost, in terms of growth forgone, of measures to attain the Toronto targets for Australian electricity generation and road transport, using the ORANI multisectoral model.
