• Watering Down Environmental Regulation in China* (2020, background): “…firm productivity (Jaffe et al. 1995; Berman and Bui 2001; Greenstone 2002; Greenstone, List, and Syverson 2012) and other economic outcomes (Henderson 1996; Becker and Henderson 2000; Walker 2011, 2013; Ryan 2012; Kahn and Mansur 2013), they have focused almost exclusively on developed countries.”
• Do EPA regulations affect labor demand? Evidence from the pulp and paper industry (2013, unknown): “However, only a limited of studies have examined the impact of environmental regulations on employment [see Berman and Bui (2001a), Greenstone (2002), Morgenstern, Pizer and Shih (2002), Cole and Elliott (2007), Walker (2011), and Gray and Shadbegian (2013)].”
• Job losses and political acceptability of climate policies: why the ‘job-killing’ argument is so persistent and how to overturn it (2018, background): “In light of solid empirical evidence showing that a unilateral climate policy costs jobs in polluting industries (e.g. Greenstone, 2002; Walker, 2011) and induces a relocation of economic activities toward regions (within a country) and countries (globally) with laxer environmental policies (Kahn & ”
• Environmental Regulation and Green Skills: An Empirical Exploration (2018, methodology): “Other papers using a similar strategy include Greenstone (2002), Walker (2011), and Kahn and Mansur (2013).”
• Climate policies and skill-biased employment dynamics: Evidence from EU countries (2018, background): “Examples of the first set of “negative” results are: Greenstone (2002); Walker (2011); Kahn and Mansur (2013) and Marin and Vona (2017); examples of the second set of “positive” results, especially for cleaner technologies, are Rennings et al. (2004); Horbach and Rennings (2013); Gagliardi et al.…”
• The Transitional Costs of Sectoral Reallocation: Evidence From the Clean Air Act and the Workforce* (2013, methodology): “The LBD also allows me to revisit the previous literature pertaining to CAA regulation and sectoral employment (Greenstone 2002, Walker 2011) to see how sector size (as measured by employment) is related to variation in the regulations.”
