“…In contrast, trade openness has little effect on the deforestation of Pakistan. Our results are consistent with the findings of Suri and Chapman, (1998a,b); Suri and Chapman, (1998a,b), Culas, 2007, DeFries et al, 2010, Carvalho et al, 2013and Ahmed, 2014 in terms of the effect of growth, energy, urbanization and trade effect on environmental degradation, respectively, and is inconsistent with Harbaugh et al, 2002;Copeland and Taylor, 2003;Peters et al, 2011;Ahmed andLong, 2012 andQazi et al, 2012, especially on the relationship of trade and environmental degradation. The statistically significant relationship (in the light of the EKC hypothesis) can be justified because Pakistan is still in the process of developing environmental standards for key sectors that contribute to growth at large, in addition to heavily relying on fossil fuel energy sources, which deplete environmental quality.…”

“…Furthermore, it is expected that developing countries will emit 80% of global emissions in the near future (Huwart and Verdier, 2013). Carvalho et al, 2013;. Consequently, there is agreement regarding the need to encourage global energy measures that consider increasing the share of renewable sources in energy mix and the use of energy innovation to control environmental degradation (Arrow et al, 1996;Torras and Boyce, 1998;Andreoni and Levinson, 2001;Lorente and Álvarez-Herránz, 2016;Álvarez-Herránz et al, 2017).…”

This study explores the relationship between economic growth and CO2 emissions in the so-called European Union 5 (EU-5) countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom) for the 1985-2016 period. In doing so, we employ a carbon emission function to investigate the environmental Kuznets curve phenomenon, which describes a relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation. The empirical results confirm the existence of an N-shaped relationship between economic growth and CO2 emissions in the EU-5 countries. We incorporate additional variables such as renewable electricity consumption, trade openness, natural resource abundance, and energy innovation to augment the carbon emission function. Renewable electricity consumption, natural resources, and energy innovation improve environmental quality, while trade openness and the interaction between economic growth and renewable electricity consumption exert a positive impact on CO2 emissions. This study is novel in that it presents an interaction between economic growth and renewable electricity consumption. We also confirm the need for renewable energy regulations related to increasing renewable sources and promoting energy innovation to reduce the negative effects of energy and fossil energy resources on environmental degradation.

“…The international literature presents many studies about the intensity of CO 2 or GHG emissions in economic sectors for different countries/regions from an environmental input-output framework. Studies by Carvalho et al (2013), Rhee and Chung (2006) and Su et al (2013), based on international trade's perspective, evaluated CO 2 emissions of Minas Gerais (Brazilian state), between Korea and Japan and China, respectively. Yamakawa and Peters (2011), Butnar and cadeia produtiva?…”

In the last three decades, the developing countries have sharply increased its contribution to global warming. From 2005 to 2012, Brazil has reduced its total emissions in 12% due to deforestation control. In the same period, the total GHG emissions excluding land-use change and forestry have increased 18% (WRI, 2014), while per capita GPD has raised 17%. The Brazilian climate policy must go beyond the deforestation control to avoid an unsustainable pattern of development. Since the mitigation effort bears heavily on primary activities, one must ask: how important are those sectors for Brazilian economy? And how their emissions are connected to other sectors along the productive chain? Specifically, this paper aims to calculate the GHG emissions multipliers of the Brazilian economy in 2009 and associate these results with the employment and income multipliers, particularly of the Agriculture sector. The ‘field of influence’ method (SONIS and HEWINGS, 1992) is applied to calculate the intersectorial relations in terms of input linkages and GHG emissions.
