“…To consider the trade-off between environmental degradation and economic growth, previous research has tested the EKC hypothesis with the traditional inverted U-shaped in various countries and regions (Bakirtas & Cetin, 2017;Begum et al, 2015;Danish, Zhang, Wang, & Wang, 2017;Dogan & Turkekul, 2016;Pata, 2018;Tang & Tan, 2015), thus suggesting policy implications for nations in pursuit of SDGs. Nevertheless, separate and comprehensive attention to the presence of EKC in ASEAN countries have not been paid adequately enough as this region is an emerging vibrant pole in the multipolar world arena (Al-Mulali, Saboori, & Ozturk, 2015;Al-Mulali, Choong, Low, & Mohammed, 2015;Borhan, Ahmed, & Hitam, 2012;Chandran & Tang, 2013;Katircioğlu, 2014;Lean & Smyth, 2010;Saboori, Sulaiman, & Mohd, 2012;Saboori & Sulaiman, 2013;Zhu, Duan, Guo, & Yu, 2016).…”

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.

Purpose: This paper examines the causal and cointegrating relationship between economic growth and CO 2 emissions in a multivariate framework by including imports and exports as others control variables for an emerging economy like Bangladesh. Design/methodology: The paper applied vector error correction model (VECM) Granger casualty test for assessing the direction of causality and variance decomposition to explain the magnitude of the forecast error variance determined by the shocks to each of the explanatory variables over time. LB (Q-stat) test is to determine data properties and WILD test is to assess short run causality from independent variables to dependent variable. Findings: The study results revealed that variables are integrated in the same order. The results of Johansen Juselius cointegration tests indicate that there is a unique longterm or equilibrium relationship among variables. Again, Granger causality test revealed that short run unidirectional causality are running from carbon dioxide emission to exports, GDP to import, and from import to carbon dioxide emissions. Variance decomposition function shows that the positive shocks in error term will produce positive effects on all variables in the long run. Therefore, a concerted effort from all national and international stakeholders, i.e., enterprises, consumers, and governments are expected to take measures to offset carbon emission and pursue environment-friendly trade plan for better managing the cities and regions in order to fight against global warming and climate change risk.

“…Em função da necessidade de aliar crescimento econômico sustentável aplicado às políticas de investimento, as questões ambientais devem ser adequadas e devem ser levadas em consideração durante as tomadas de decisão. Isso porque a degradação ambiental é causada por fatores-chave, como industrialização, transporte, população, pobreza, erosão do solo, congestionamento e tráfego pesado, desmatamentos, entre outros (Borhan et al, 2012).…”

O Brasil é o maior exportador de celulose do mundo, e a maior expansão do setor florestal brasileiro ocorreu em Mato Grosso do Sul, especialmente com relação à produção de celulose e papel. O desenvolvimento gerado pelo setor madeireiro, de florestas nativas e plantadas, pode ser visto como uma combinação de fatores internos e externos, com aplicação na cadeia produtiva. Nesse contexto, a presente pesquisa teve por objetivo avaliar o impacto da produção de produtos madeireiros de florestas nativas e plantadas no desenvolvimento econômico e ambiental do Estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, região Centro-Oeste do Brasil, entre 2000 e 2014. O procedimento metodológico consistiu em pesquisa exploratória sobre a atividade setorial, com o uso debanco de dados secundários disponíveis nos sites do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) para extração das variáveis econômicas e ambientais, aplicando-se modelos econométricos de regressão múltiplacom dados longitudinais. Os resultados mostraram externalidades positivas geradas pela produção de madeira plantada para o desenvolvimento econômico e, ainda, para o meio ambiente. A produção madeireira de florestasnativas não apresentou impacto econômico, influenciando negativamente o meio ambiente. O impacto gerado pela liberdade econômica também foi analisado, ou seja, o grau de abertura comercial no setor, resultando choque positivo da política de atração de investimentos para o setor agroflorestal. As evidências empíricas e os modelos econométricos apresentados podem ser utilizados para auxiliar os policy-makers e produtores na tomada de decisões mais coerentes e sistêmicas, contribuindo para o setor no qual o Brasil é maior exportadormundial. A pesquisa ainda contribui para uma lacuna na literatura, com estudos aplicados para as atividades produtivas da região Centro-Oeste do Brasil.
