了解增长和环境的历史趋势有助于理解和鼓励世界的可持续增长。环境库兹涅茨曲线有助于我们分析不同国家和不同时期的增长模式。它对所有国家,特别是发展中国家的环境政策倡议都是有用的。然而,环境库兹涅茨曲线的含义可能会被误解,需要注意的是,不要假定所有环境问题都是过渡性的,一旦收入水平提高就可以得到解决。贸易与环境之间有着密切的联系,我们需要了解这些联系是如何发挥作用的,以便能够充分利用这一关系,帮助实现可持续发展。
Knowledge of the historical trends in growth and the environment is useful for understanding and encouraging sustainable growth in the world. The environmental Kuznets curve helps us analyze growth patterns in different countries and over time. It is useful in environmental policy initiatives in all countries, but in developing countries in particular. However, the implications of the environmental Kuznets curve can be misconstrued and care needs to be taken not to assume that all environmental problems are transitional and can be taken care of once income levels increase. There are strong links between trade and the environment and we need to understand how these links work to be able to exploit fully this relationship to aid sustainable development.
