“…In a similar vein, with respect to the relationship between carbon emissions and population, Casey and Galor (2017) provide empirical evidence that a reduction in fertility rates, while increases income per capita, diminishes carbon emissions. Likewise, Dalton et al (2008) provides an analysis of the effect of population aging on U.S energy use and carbon emissions. None of these studies point to the impact of demographic patterns on savings rates and, subsequently, on climate policies.…”

“…They have been used to study possible emissions in the absence of mitigation policy as well as the costs and other consequences of emissions reduction strategies. Although nearly all scenarios include assumptions about future population growth, none has explicitly investigated the separate effect of demographic influences on emissions, with the exception of a few studies at the country level (13).…”
