Consider the information in the file named HW5 - Green Paradox. Concentrate on the scenario called Green Paradox Case 1.
Currently (prior to any GHG policies by the Group 1 countries) the world
Group 1 countries reduce their demand for oil by 70 units through aggressive conservation policies as well investments in renewable sources of energy. They hope/predict that the global consumption and production of oil will decrease by the same amount. However, as a result of this policy, the world equilibrium price of oil will change to "?" dollars, and the equilibrium quantity of oil transacted in the market will change to "?" units. At this new price, Group 1 countries will be consuming "?" units of oil and Group 2 countries will be consuming "?" units of oil.
So, Group 1 countries were hoping to reduce global consumption of oil by 70 units. However, the global consumption was reduced by “ ? ” units.
