Environmental Impact of Dietary Change a Systematic Review

Abstract

The literature evaluating the technical and socioeconomic outcomes of policy instruments used to back up the transition to depression-carbon economies is neither easily accessible nor comparable and often provides alien results. We develop and implement a framework to systematically review and synthesize the impact of ten types of decarbonization policy instruments on vii technical and socioeconomic outcomes. Our systematic review shows that the selected types of regulatory and economic and fiscal instruments are generally associated with positive impacts on environmental, technological and innovation outcomes. Several instruments are oftentimes associated with short-term negative impacts on competitiveness and distributional outcomes. We talk over how these trade-offs can be reduced or transformed into co-benefits by designing research and development and government procurement, deployment policies, carbon pricing and trading. Nosotros evidence how specific design features can promote competitiveness and reduce negative distributional impacts, peculiarly for small firms. An online interactive Decarbonisation Policy Evaluation Tool allows further assay of the evidence.

Information availability

The details of the written report blueprint, all data and data compiled for this research and the procedures for their analysis are detailed in this published commodity and its Supplementary Information files. The datasets with the coding of the prove generated during this report (including those available in the Supplementary Data) are bachelor from the corresponding author upon asking. The coded evidence tin also be accessed free of charge through the online 'Decarbonisation Policy Evaluation Tool' (http://dpet.innopaths.eu/#/). This tool allows the reader to explore additional research questions or unlike aspects of the evidence. This tool includes diverse functionalities, including (one) allowing the user to filter dissimilar evidence according to the research method, (2) weighing the evidence using weights specified by the user, (3) filtering past policy instrument or event and (4) reading the systematic coding of the papers forth unlike categories, including jurisdiction, time period, boosted details regarding the information and research methods, the sector and so on. Source data are provided with this newspaper.
