“…Second, it is important to consider the role of other variables such as gender equality, industrialization or human capital can influence RE-CO2 nexus in this region. For instance, Salahodjaev et al (2022) shows that renewable energy and tourism have significant effect on CO2 emissions. Future studies should also use other empirical methods to take into account non-monotonic asymmetries, long-…”

This study analyzes the relationship between renewable energy and CO2 emissions in top natural resource depending countries over the period 2000–2015. An important contribution of this study is to assess the role of governance. The Ordinary Least Squares Fixed effects Generalized Least Squares methods and two-step GMM estimators are used for panel data. The empirical results show that renewable energy has significant negative impact on per capita CO2 emissions. The estimates show that 1 percentage point increase in renewable energy consumption leads to 1.25% decrease in CO2 emissions per capita. We also find that renewable energy consumption decreases CO2 emissions faster in countries with higher rule of law and voice and accountability. gross domestic product per capita has inverted U-shaped relationship with CO2 emissions.

“…REC is a crucial panacea to mitigate environmental degradation. Recently, previous literature studies have shown that REC reduces CO 2 emissions for low-income countries (Ehigiamusoe and Dogan, 2022), Europe and Central Asia (Salahodjaev et al, 2022), global income countries , Argentina (Yuping et al, 2021) and selected Asian countries (Anwar et al, 2021). On the contrary, Murshed et al (2022) pointed out that REC increases CO 2 emissions in G7 countries and suggested that a clean energy transition could enable these countries to switch production processes in an environmentally friendly way.…”

PurposeThe main purpose of this research is to examine the impact of institutional quality and sectoral employment on environmental degradation in developing countries. This paper also re-examined the validity of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis and estimated the long run impact of explanatory variables on CO2 emissions.Design/methodology/approachIn this paper, the balanced panel data for the period 2002–2016 was used based on data availability and applied two-step SYS-GMM estimators.FindingsThe results showed that institutional quality such as government effectiveness (GE) and the rule of law (RL) reduce CO2 emissions and promote environmental quality in developing countries. Interestingly, the authors found new evidence that employment in agriculture and industry has a positive impact on pollution, while employment in the service sector was negatively associated with CO2 emissions, and the validity of the EKC hypothesis was confirmed. In addition, the research suggests that strong institutional frameworks and their effective implementation are the most important panacea and should be treated as a top priority to counteract environmental degradation and achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals.Originality/valueThis is the first study to examine the short run and long run effects of institutional quality and sectoral employment on environmental degradation using the balanced panel data for a large sample of developing countries. This paper also used a special technique of Driscoll and Kraay standard error approach to confirm the robustness results and showed the different roles of sectoral employment on environmental quality.

“…Using data from the European and Central Asian regions, Salahodjaev et al ( 2022 ) discern whether tourism and renewable energy contribute to emissions. The authors conclude that tourism is an imperative trigger of COE in European and Central Asian regions.…”

In recent years, climate policy has experienced several episodes of crest and trough in the US, which has induced profound uncertainty. This climate policy uncertainty (CPU) may exert economic, social, and environmental impacts. Therefore, using the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) framework, this study targets to probe whether CPU affects sectoral carbon dioxide emissions (COE) in the US. We make use of advanced econometric procedures such as the novel SOR unit root test (to probe the order of integration of the entire dataset) and the novel Fourier ARDL approach (to retrieve the long- and short-run estimates). The findings delineate that the EKC holds for the industrial, electric power, commercial, and residential sectors. In addition, CPU escalates COE in the residential, commercial, and electric power sectors in both the long- and short-run. Parallel to this, CPU affects industrial COE neither in the short-run nor in the long-run. Keeping in view the key findings, we propose a set of sector-specific policy implications to curb COE.
