“…There is no unified standard for the measurement of environmental pollution in the existing literature. Some studies adopt comprehensive and indirect environmental pollution index such as Environmental Performance Index to measure the level of environmental pollution [12], but most previous studies adopt specific environmental pollution index, such as emissions of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) and nitrous oxide (NO X ) [53,54]. As for China, some studies choose carbon dioxide or sulfur dioxide as the indicator of environmental pollution [55,56,57], while others choose one or several pollutants of three industrial wastes (waste gas, waste water and solid waste) [1,58,59].…”

Previous studies show that the environmental quality is significantly influenced by corruption and the hidden economy separately. However, what is the impact of their interaction effect on environmental quality? Based on Multiple Indicators Multiple Causes (MIMIC) model, this study calculates the scale of hidden economy in Chinese provinces firstly. Then, we apply the method of spatial econometrics to analyze the interaction effect of corruption and the hidden economy on environmental pollution with China’s provincial panel data from 1998 to 2017. The results indicate that the interaction effect between corruption and hidden economy significantly increases pollutant discharge, suggesting that both anti-corruption and control of the hidden economy may improve environmental quality directly and indirectly.

“…They find that environmental productivity falls more in states with higher income in relation to states with lower income after taking into account some socio-economic variables. Sinha and Bhattacharya (2017) undertook an EKC analysis for SO 2 emissions in India and found the conventional inverted U curve applicable in industrial areas, while Sinha and Bhatt (2017) found a N-shaped EKC curve for NO x in India.…”

The adverse health impacts from air pollution are a grave concern, especially for India, where air pollution has been on the rise for several decades now. We motivate the discussion by presenting here some data on air pollution and the health losses attributable to air pollution in India. Air quality in Indian cities has been observed to be among the poorest in the world (WHO, 2018). Many Indian cities such as Kanpur,

“…Joy and Panda confirmed that external debt postively affected inflation but negatively affected non-developmental expenditure. Sinha and Bhatt (2017) analyzed the relationship between nitrogen dioxide emissions (NO2), CE and economic growth for India. Sinha and Bhatt examined CE for 1960to 2011and NO2 for 1970to 2012.…”

Coal Kuznets Curve in INDIA

In this study, the relationship between economic growth and emissions from coal consumption per capita is analyzed in India for the period 1960 to 2019. Although coal constitutes 70% of energy needs of India currently, India has been investing significantly in renewable energy to make clean energy meet half of its needs in the near future. This study does not confirm relationship between emissions and economic growth in the long-run in per capita terms. Total consumption terms may be analyzed in the future studies since this study does not analyze the total consumption terms because the model does not satisfy the stability requirements. For per capita analysis, the result is inverted N relationship between emissions and economic growth. Although the coefficients are insignificant, inverted N relationship between economic growth and emissions shows that there may be unsustainability in economic activities due to economic policies in India. Future studies may analyze different periods with different methodologies in India for the relationship between coal consumption and economic growth.
