On day 2 of the ifo Conference on “Understanding Socio-Economic Inequalities with Novel Data and Methods”, DLR and EORC contributed again.

The presentation titled “Dirty Taxes – Corporate Taxes and Air Pollution” revealed that in Germany a 1% increase in business taxes increases NO2 levels by 0.19%.
