Control of Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide by Imposing Environmental Tax: A Mathematical Model

Niharika Verma, Manju Agarwal

Abstract



The concentration of CO_2 is steadily rising from many sources such as from industrialization, deforestation etc. In this paper, a nonlinear mathematical model is proposed for the control of increasing CO_2 in the atmosphere. It is assumed that environmental tax imposed only when the concentration of CO_2 crosses a limit over which it becomes harmful for the environment. Criteria for local stability and instability of the non-negative equilibrium are obtained. We also obtained the condition for the global stability and the persistence of the system. Finally, we illustrated our results by numerical simulation.

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information.
