Modelling the health related benefits of environmental policies - a CGE analysis for the eu countries with gem-e3



APPENDIX

A similar methodology is used to derive the marginal damage of the other pollutants.
The first column of Table A.3 gives the resulting health related marginal damage for all
pollutants considered in our study.
