The aspiration of this study was to examine the impact foreign direct investments (FDI) and economic growth on environmental degradation in Balkans for period 1998–2019. Balkan countries were classified into two groups, high income (HIC) upper-middle (UMIC). Thus, hypotheses have been set. effect FDI observed through pollution haven hypothesis (PHH). To that connection, we used Pearson correlat...

To understand the potential impacts of China’s accession to WTO in her new de-sulphur policy (reduction of 10% of SO2 emission in 2005 with respect to that of 2000), we construct a CGE model in which the SO2 emission is linked directly to energy intermediary consumption in production. The positive externality of trade on China’s economy is also included. This model is then calibrated into a 55-...

We investigate the asymmetric nonlinear link between foreign direct investment, oil prices, and CO2 emissions for Gulf Cooperation Council nations, using investment price data. As is positively associated with carbon in long run prices have positive, significant effects on emissions, our findings support pollution-haven hypothesis. Furthermore, these variables an relationship, which corresponds...

This paper revisited the link between intra-industry trade (IIT) Portugal and Spain Portuguese carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The research also considers effects of foreign direct investment (FDI) on CO2 emissions, pondering arguments pollution haven hypothesis halo hypothesis. As an econometric strategy, this investigation has applied panel data, namely a Pooled Mean Group Autoregressive Dist...

This study explores the nexus among clean energy, economic growth, urbanization, trade openness, and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in an emerging economy, Sri Lanka. An autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) econometric technique different diagnostic tests are used to investigate linkages. The pairwise Graner causality approach is applied direction. estimated results have confirmed that energy ...
