本文使用适合面板数据平滑过渡回归的计量经济学技术,重新考察了人均收入增长与环境退化之间的关系。这是一种比文献中广泛使用的多项式模型更直观和灵活的方法,它可以调和之前发现的一些混合结果。该方法适用于1971年至1997年期间非经合发组织国家的二氧化碳排放量。虽然没有环境库兹涅茨曲线的证据,但我们发现了两种制度,即低收入制度,其中排放随着经济增长而加速,中高收入制度与环境退化减速相关。
This article re-examines the relationship between growth in per capita income and environmental degradation using econometric techniques appropriate for smooth transition regressions with panel data. This is a more intuitive and flexible methodology than the polynomial models widely used in the literature, and it can reconcile some of the mixed results found previously. The methodology is applied to carbon dioxide emissions from nonOECD countries over the period 1971 to 1997. Although there is no evidence of environmental Kuznets curve, we find two regimes, namely a low-income regime where emissions accelerate with economic growth and a middle to high-income regime associated with a deceleration in environmental degradation.
