Environment program area
Changing our surroundings and environment is fundamentally human. It is equally human to care about the environment and nature. An environmental policy that wants to make a real difference must therefore start with people. How can we best combine our enormous creative power with our care for the living world? How do we use our resources in the best possible way? And how do we translate all this into concrete and implementable policies?
Ephi works on several different projects in the environmental field. Our main focus is on the fight against climate change, but our involvement in environmental issues is broader than that.
Current projects
- Excise duties as an environmental policy tool
- Marginal cost of different climate actions
- Facts in the environmental debate
- The conceptual basis of the environmental movement
- The threats and opportunities: carbon tariffs
