“…Bildirici and Kayıkçı, (2013); Bölük and Mert, (2015); C. Bento and Moutinho, (2016)), which is a consequence of its versatility for handling specific characteristics of the data. Indeed, this approach has several main advantages, namely: (i) the ability to analyse both the short-and long-run relationships separately through semi-elasticities and elasticities respectively; (ii) capacity to use variables with a different order of integration, once guaranteed that they have an integration order less than two, i.e.…”

“…Secondly, international trade can accelerate or hamper the pace of carbon emission as it influences both domestic production and foreign consumption (Al-Mulali, Ozturk, & Lean, 2015;Bento & Moutinho, 2016;Ertugrul, Cetin, Seker, & Dogan, 2016;Kanemoto, Moran, Lenzen, & Geschke, 2014;Lau et al, 2014;Ren, Yuan, Ma, & Chen, 2014). Also, the concept of carbon emission embodied in trade has also been an increasingly observed phenomenon (Böhringer, Carbone, & Rutherford, 2018;Sakai & Barrett, 2016;Su & Ang, 2014;Wu, R., Geng, Dong, Fujita, & Tian, 2016;Yunfeng & Laike, 2010).…”

Environmental Degradation and Economic Growth in ASEAN-10: The Perspective of EKC Hypothesis

Environmental issues have been ranked among the most intense debates over the past decades by governments around the world. Sustainable development goals have been top priorities in the working agenda of national cabinets and administrations which questions the chronic trade-off between environment and economic performance. This paper aims at contributing further insights into the above-mentioned linkage to the contemporary literature by testing the validity of the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis. By conducting a panel data analysis on ASEAN-10 countries' statistics of carbon dioxide emissions per capita (COEpc), real gross domestic product per capita (rGDPpc), foreign direct investment inflow (FDIif), trade openness index (TOI), and urbanisation (URB), the findings have empirically confirmed the valid causality running from economic growth, international trade and demographic changes to environmental degradation. Additionally, the existence of an earlier inverted U-shaped and a later N-shaped EKC has been investigated and significantly confirmed the cyclical changes of the eco-enviro trade-off. Also, this paper provides implications for policymakers to consider the cost-benefit issue in the establishment and implementation of economic and environmental protection policies.

“…Dogan and Seker [10] confirmed that expanding the use of renewable energy decreases CO 2 emissions in the top renewable energy countries. Bento et al [11] and Tiwari [12] arrived at the same conclusions for Italy and India; Bilgili et al [13], Bölük and Mert [14], Saidi et al [15], Sebri et al [16], Özbugday et al [17], and Dogan et al [18] provided similar results for 17 panel Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries, 16 European Union countries, nine developed countries, BRICS countries, thirty-six countries and the European Union, respectively.…”

Does Non-Fossil Energy Usage Lower CO2 Emissions? Empirical Evidence from China

This paper uses an autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL) to examine the dynamic impact of non-fossil energy consumption on carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions in China for a given level of economic growth, trade openness, and energy usage between 1965 and 2014. The results suggest that the variables are in a long-run equilibrium. ARDL estimation indicates that consumption of non-fossil energy plays a crucial role in curbing CO 2 emissions in the long run but not in the short term. The results also suggest that, in both the long and short term, energy consumption and trade openness have a negative impact on the reduction of CO 2 emissions, while gross domestic product (GDP) per capita increases CO 2 emissions only in the short term. Finally, the Granger causality test indicates a bidirectional causality between CO 2 emissions and energy consumption. In addition, this study suggests that non-fossil energy is an effective solution to mitigate CO 2 emissions, providing useful information for policy-makers wishing to reduce atmospheric CO 2 .
