The issue is planned as a contribution to the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development 2012 (RIO+20) to be held in June 2012. The conference has “greening the world economy” as one of its main objectives. The Editors are looking for the following type of submissions: Overview articles with “lessons learnt” in both industrialized and developing countries; Interesting case studies showing how environmental taxation can promote sustainability; Focus on sustainability and development; Focus on environmental effect and obstacles to implementation rather than on abstract modeling.
If you are interested in contributing a research or policy paper broadly related to the topic at hand
