Climate change: comparative impact on developing and developed countries

Tourism Impact on Air Pollution in Developed and Developing Countries

T he main purpose of this paper is to investigate and compare the impact of tourism on air pollution in selected developed and developing countries during the period of 1995-2014. To this end, at first, the model was designed based on the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) assumptions and with the presence of the major influencing factors on air pollution along with the international ...

The Severe Impact of Climate Change on Developing Countries

global temperature has increased from 13.7 to 14.3 degrees Celsius. The 1990s were, in many respects, the warmest years of the 20th century. Most of the world’s glaciers have receded over the last few decades. The concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere—the chief cause of the greenhouse effect—has risen from 280 parts per million (ppm) to 360 ppm since the start of the Industria...

The results indicate that government size has positive effect on economic growth and negative effect on per capita production growth...

Contributions of developed and developing countries to global climate forcing and surface temperature change

Understanding the relative contributions of individual countries to global climate change for different time periods is essential for mitigation strategies that seek to hold nations accountable for their historical emissions. Previous assessments of this kind have compared countries by their greenhouse gas emissions, but have yet to consider the full spectrum of the short-lived gases and aeroso...
