A Spatiotemporal Fixed Effects Estimation of U.S. State-Level Carbon Dioxide Emissions
Burnett, J. Wesley; Bergstrom, John C. - Agricultural and Applied Economics Association - AAEA - 2011
One of the major shortcommings of past environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) studies is that the spatiotemporal aspects within the data have largely been ignored. By ignoring the spatial aspect of pollution emissions past estimates of the EKC implicitly assume that a region’s emissions are...
