This study aims to (i) analyze the effect of economic growth and energy consumption on carbon emissions; (ii) investigate Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) between emissions in Indonesia based annual data 2003 2019 using Ordinary Least Square (OLS) technique. The estimation results show that has a negative significant Energy positive emissions. Using quadratic model, EKC does not occur Indonesi...

Oil rents significantly contribute to income in OPEC member economies and could have environmental consequences. The present study explores the asymmetrical effects of oil on CO 2 emissions 13 current using a period 1970–2019, also tests Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis. Long-run results show that economic growth has positive effect, its square term negative effect Algeria, Congo, G...

Renewable Energy Consumption (REC) would reduce pollution and a large pool of literature has probed the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) including REC in panel or country-specific model. The present study reviewed 69 empirical studies found that 57 out validated EKC but 12 did not confirm EKC. Out these, 64 reduced emissions. In analyses, 18 25 24 substantiated studies, 39 44 40 Comparatively,...

Contingent upon the empirical work done, current study seeks to investigate environmental load capacity factor (LCF) consequences of financial development in three different ways for 48 Asian economies. We used two-step system generalized method moments (GMM) technique analyze data from 1996 2020. Initially, we investigated by considering six dimensions development. Then, modified original Kuzn...

This study investigates the land surface temperature (LST) distribution from thermal infrared data for analyzing the characteristics of surface coverage using the Vegetation–Impervious–Soil (VIS) approach. A set of ten images, obtained from Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper, between 2001 and 2010, were used to study the urban environmental conditions of 47 neighborhoods of Porto Alegre city, Brazil. Po...

There is a concern about the increasing pressure over the forest as economic growth increases. As for the Brazilian Amazon deforestation, there are noticeable intra-regional differences due to its occupation history, extensive area, economic structure and geographical aspects, inducing a strong spatial heterogeneity in this environmental phenomenon. This paper investigates locally the Environme...

Environmental deformations and changes put countries under socioeconomic stress at the global level are, therefore, an essential topic of discussion. In this context, paper analyzes impact financial development, tourism, economic growth on three different environmental indicators using second-generation panel data techniques for top ten tourism destinations. This study tests whether there is a ...

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...

T his study investigates the relationship between quality of environment and democracy among different countries over the period of 2002 - 2012. Democracy and accumulated democracy indices have been considered as political inequality variables influencing the quality of the environment among different countries in the reduced form of Kuznets’ environmental curve (EKC) hypotheses mode...
