This paper analyses the process of delinking for landfilling trends embedding the dynamics in a frame where economic, geographical and policy variables enter the arena We aim at investigating in depth what main drivers may be responsible for such a phenomenon, and whether differences may be...

Knowledge of the carbon emissions elasticities of income and population is important both for climate policy/negotiations and for generating projections of carbon emissions. However, previous estimations of these elasticities using the well-known STIRPAT framework have produced such wide-ranging...

In this research, the relationships of trade, democracy and environment have been explored. The theoretical debate on the subject is inconclusive and cannot be solved without empirical evidence. However, the existing evidence may suffer from econometric problems. This document searches to...

This paper empirically examines the effect of the inclusion in one of the most prominent sustainability stock indexes, namely the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World), on corporate financial performance. On the basis of panel data for European firms that were included in the Dow...

While the financial inclusion would induce greater pollutant emissions through its impact of economic activity, the increased access to financial services may unleash investments in green technologies. This papier investigates whether the financial inclusion influences the dynamic of carbon...

The Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesizes that the income-pollution relationship has an inverted U shape: pollution increases with income up to a turning point beyond which it decreases. The empirical literature has concentrated on estimation of this relationship at the mean employing...

Recent papers by Wagner in this journal and Vollebergh et al. in the Journal of Environmental Economics and Management point out some fundamental econometric problems with traditional methods of estimating the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) and propose alternative approaches that avoid these...
