Climate Change Policy in European Countries and its effects on industry

In this paper we discuss the effects ofdifferent climate change policies onindustrial activity and on welfare. Wecompare the effects of carbon taxes andgrandfathered permits and the effects ofexemptions for energy-intensive industries.We survey first the insights from economictheory and from model experiments for theUS. Next we use a general equilibrium modelto assess the effect of different climatechange policies on industrial activity persector and per member country in the EU. Wepay particular attention to the effects ofpolicies where one EU member state exemptsits energy-intensive sectors from abatementefforts. The main findings are that, in theEU, the effects on industrial activity andthe welfare costs of tradable permits orcarbon taxes are small when no industrialsectors are exempted. When one membercountry exempts its energy intensivesector, this will reduce somewhat theimpact on its activity level but willgenerate an extra welfare cost for theEU.     

胶州湾潮间带和沿岸区硫酸盐还原菌含量分布

用 Ｍ Ｐ Ｎ 法对胶州湾潮间带和沿岸区的硫酸盐还原菌（ 缩写为 Ｓ Ｒ Ｂ） 含量作了研究，结果表明表层沉积物的 Ｓ Ｒ Ｂ 含量大约是４１ ×１０７ 个细胞／ｇ ，波动范围较大。水中的 Ｓ Ｒ Ｂ 含量约２５ ×１０２／ｍｌ。分析了 Ｓ Ｒ Ｂ 含量的分布状况，发现调查区内的 Ｓ Ｒ Ｂ 含量基本上呈现出北高南低、西高东低之势，即工业区、港口区的高于海水浴场、海滨旅游区的。证实了生活废弃物的排放致其环境 Ｓ Ｒ Ｂ 含量特高。 Ｓ Ｒ Ｂ 含量分布状况大体上与以往所测环境污染状况一致。对虾养殖池的 Ｓ Ｒ Ｂ 含量意味着水产养殖必须考虑这一因子的作用     

Incremental cost-effectiveness of incorporating oestriol evaluation in down syndrome screening programmes

As screening for Down syndrome becomes increasingly sophisticated, it is important to evaluate the newer technologies in terms of their cost-effectiveness. One recent addition to Down syndrome screening programmes is maternal serum unconjugated oestriol (uE₃), especially when used in conjunction with maternal serum α-fetoprotein and human chorionic gonadotropin. Using assumptions used in a California proposal to justify an expanded screening programme for Down syndrome, we calculated both the average and the incremental cost-effectiveness of adding uE₃. Using the base case assumptions, including an $8 fee for the uE₃, the incremental cost-effectiveness of adding uE₃ to the proposed California programme is $119 100 per case detected, a value that compares favourably with other Down syndrome screening programmes. The sensitivity analysis supports this conclusion over a wide range of assumptions. However, because of the uncertainty with some key data, it is still too early to fully support the inclusion of uE₃ in Down syndrome screening programmes.

Attitudes of women of childbearing age towards prenatal diagnosis in Southeastern France

The objective of this study was to explore women's attitudes towards prenatal diagnosis of trisomy 21 and to examine some of the factors possibly responsible for these attitudes before implementing in real practice serological screening of pregnant women at risk for trisomy 21. We carried out a telephone survey on a representative sample of women who had recently had a normal livebirth delivery in the Marseille district in 1990. The participation rate was 80 per cent and the average age of the mothers was 28-9 years. Among the 514 women interviewed, 78 per cent stated that they would ask for an amniocentesis for a 1 per cent risk of trisomy 21 at their next pregnancy. When adjusting for confounding factors, the decision to have or not to have an amniocentesis was found to depend not only on the women's attitude towards induced abortion, but also on their understanding of the risk involved and on the social context (knowing a handicapped child, discussion with the father). It also depended on the women's age and on what they knew about amniocentesis from the medical point of view. The risk of miscarriage can influence a woman's choice but this objection was not found to affect the women's decisions significantly in our survey. The data showed the existence of a high potential demand for fetal karyotyping.

论环境参与权

环境参与权是公民享有的一项重要环境权利。它包括参与环境立法权、环境行政听证权、参与环境决策权和环境监督权，确立环境参与权具有重要意义，但我国现行立法很不完备，需要进一步完善。
