The OECD Environmental Outlook simulated three environmental policy packages (PP) addressing four issues (agriculture, climate change, air pollution and water quality), applied to specific groups of countries and at a global level.
- The OECD PP would result from applying the following policies to OECD countries: carbon taxes, a substantial reduction in air pollution and improved sewage systems.
- The OECD+BRIC PP would result from applying the same policies to OECD and BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China), adding deregulation of agriculture (cutting subsidies and tariffs).
- The Global PP would involve applying all these policies worldwide (with delayed target for low income countries).
- The baseline is a no-new policies scenario (or business-as-usual). It is not the most plausible future development but a good benchmark for comparison.
