With economic development, air pollution is becoming increasingly serious, which affects the sustainable development of global economy. In order to explore policy measures curb pollution, this paper selects data from 30 regions in China and explores their impact studies on perspectives environmental regulation foreign direct investment using a systematic GMM model. Then, threshold effect model ...

Abstract This study examines the link between economic complexity and environmental pollution by exploiting a massive unprecedented decline of CO 2 emissions in former socialist transition countries after fall iron curtain. We refer to extended theories Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC), stating that follows an inverted u-shaped course with respect complexity. Using comprehensive data 27 for pe...

This study aims to contribute existing research on CO2 emissions by focusing military spending. We use data from 47 countries with the highest levels of per capita spending over period 2000 2015. The results two-stage GMM estimator suggest a positive relationship between defence and emissions: 1% increase in leads 0.05% capita. GDP has an inverted U-shaped emissions, which confirms Environmenta...

Article history: Received 18 September 2003 Received in revised form 20 September 2005 Accepted 3 November 2005 Available online 18 January 2006 The empirical environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) literature is vast but far from conclusive. Many authors have analysed the existence of an EKC for various pollutants. Others have used the EKC framework to identify country characteristics that help to e...

In this paper, we are examining the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) in context of a circular economy recycling model. Our model assumes that there only two factors production final good, recyclable and polluting input. We also present extensions basic by adding technological progress input dynamic reduction influence same respectively. results suggest presence an inverse-U for EKC confirming ...

This paper employed advanced panel methods to examine the effects of international tourist arrivals on CO2 emissions in Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region over period 1995–2018. To analyze predictive power for emissions, Granger non-causality test was employed. Employing common correlated mean group estimator showed that arrival reduces while energy consumption trade openness are main c...

The empirical literature on the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) purports to describe how a nation's environmental quality will evolve if it makes the transition from poverty to wealth. The popular generalization is that pollution will first increase and then, if income becomes sufficiently high, decline. Empirical support for this proposition is based primarily on crosscountry variations in i...

The environmental issue has become a global problem that needs to be examined frequently, motivating researchers investigate it. Thus, the present study investigated asymmetric impact of globalization, economic growth and natural resources on ecological footprint in presence Kuznets curve (EKC) Thailand. used annual time series data from 1970 2018. applied novel method nonlinear autoregressive ...

This study explores how public utilities in Japan demonstrate the achievement of both growth and environmental conservation, by using financial performance impact data from publicly traded companies power, gas, transport, telecommunication, postal services before during COVID-19 pandemic. First, regression analyses confirm Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis an inverted N-shaped curve ...
