abstract = {This paper discusses environmental policies which aim at a
sustainable use of domestic resources which are mobile. It assumes
that one country introduces such a policy but the other country does
not. If a resource is mobile, strict domestic environmental policies
may increase the resource imports from other countries. This paper
shows that a unilateral environmental policy may even imply an
increased resource use. In this case, a large part of the
sustainability objective is met by substituting domestic resource
extraction by imports. When sustainability is modelled in an
inter temporal, competitive framework, the paper shows that the
sustainability rule will not lead to a slower rate of extraction of the
resource.},
