Resum
The concern about climate change phenomena has led to the introduction and intensification of corrective public policies in the environmental-energy field. Within these policies, the so called economic instruments have played a key role in the last few years. This paper describes the theoretical foundations of the double dividend of environmental taxes and green tax reforms, as well as the existing empirical evidence about them. The article also enumerates different practical applications of green tax reforms in several European countries.
