“…Based on the studies of Emir and Bekun (2019) and Mikayilov et al (2020), we primarily carried out a stationary test to ensure that we identified the maximum level of detailed estimates and the asymptotic characteristics of the variables under study. The augmented Dicky–Fuller (ADF), Philip and Perron (PP) and Kwiatkowski–Phillips–Schmidt–Shin tests were used to determine the root unit so that the approximations of the variables would not produce bias regressions estimates.…”

Purpose Discussions on environment-friendly production connected with the concerns of growing biomass emissions have gained much attention. In this regard, this study aims to explore the issue of biomass energy consumption and its related emission effects on the economic and environmental well-being of the economy of Cyprus. Design/methodology/approach This study sources time series data on specific variables from the Global Material Flow and the World Bank’s World Development Indicators (WDI, 2020) between 1990 and 2016. The Robust least square (ROB-L2) in conjunction with Pesaran autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) methodology analysis techniques was used in addition to the Granger causality tests to examine the direction of causality flow between the variables under consideration. Findings The results indicate that biomass energy usage in the long run reduces pollution and negatively correlates with CO2 emissions level. Also, the decline of emission is influenced by increased foreign direct investment (FDI), thus, activities of foreign investors contribute to combating emission in the country. According to empirical results, non-renewable energy consumption showed both positive and negative influences on increased emission level, whereas economic growth is increasing carbon dioxide emission for the case of Cyprus. Originality/value This study applies current reliable data that offers renewed insights and sheds light on the state of affairs on biomass utilization from a developing country perspective. Additionally, it extends the discourse on the impact of biomass utilization on CO2 emissions by considering the impact of FDI, trade flow and energy consumption in a carbon-income function built on the liner version of the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis. Although this is by no means exhaustive, the study pioneers the discourse on how FDI with biomass utilization among other relevant variables influences carbon dioxide emission.

“…Recent studies suggest that it is better to consider consumption-based CO 2 as opposed to territorial-based CO 2 . (Hasanov et al 2021(Hasanov et al , 2018Liddle 2018a, b;Mikayilov et al 2020). RE stands for the consumption of renewable energy as a share of total final energy usage.…”

This paper analyzes the impact of renewable energy consumption, total factor productivity (TFP), income, imports, and exports on consumption-based CO2 emissions in Turkey from 1990 to 2019, utilizing the Autoregressive Distributed Lagged (ARDL) method. The findings indicated that the use of renewable energy, total factor productivity and exports negatively influence CO2 emissions. On the other hand, the positive impact of income and imports on CO2 emissions was found. The negative impact of renewable energy consumption and total factor productivity highlights the importance of implementing environmentally friendly measures in the energy sector (particularly raising the proportion of renewable energy in overall energy consumption) and technological innovation.

“…Overall, the discrepancy of these results in this literature could be attributed to a variety of reasons, such as using different econometric models, and explanatory variables, and more importantly, we argue that there are still some deficiencies in this research field. First, to measure tourism development, the literature has mainly used tourism receipts, the total number of tourist arrivals, or tourism expenditures, see Katircioglu (2014), Mikayilov et al (2020), and Paramati et al (2017a) and among others. However, a major disadvantage of these commonly used indicators of tourism activity is that they only show part of the development of tourism.…”

Tourism and environmental performance: New evidence using a threshold regression analysis

To verify whether the effect of tourism on environmental performance differs by the level of tourism development, a panel threshold regression approach is applied to observe the effects of tourism on environmental performance in 97 countries over the 2002–2012 periods. Our results suggest that tourism always has a significant negative influence on the environmental performance, implying that tourism will unavoidably result in environmental degradation, irrespective of how high the level of tourism development. However, when tourism development exceeds a certain value, tourism will relatively have less influence on environmental performance. In terms of policy prescriptions, considering that tourism wills inevitably worse environmental qualities, this finding implies that policymakers should consider the optimal level of tourism development at around the estimated threshold level to minimize the negative impact of tourism on environmental quality.
