1 Fossil fuel stock Fossil fuel extraction Production Utility Welfare Pollution flows Consumption Pollution stocks Clean-up or defensive expenditure Environmental pressure Capital stock Figure 16.1 The structure of the aggregate stock pollution model

2 The following slides show the steps building up to Figure 16.2, then Figure 16.2 itself.

3 time, t units of utility PtPt Net Price 

4 time, t units of utility PtPt Net Price  P t +  R Marginal extraction cost

5 time, t units of utility PtPt  P t +  R Utility flow damage P t +  R +U E E R

6 time, t units of utility PtPt  P t +  R Pollution flow damage P t +  R -U E E R P t +  R +U E E R -  Q E E R

7 time, t units of utility PtPt  P t +  R Stock damage P t +  R -U E E R P t +  R -U E E R -  Q E E R P t +  R -U E E R -  Q E E R - M R Figure 16.2 Optimal time paths for the variables of the pollution model.
