环境库兹涅茨曲线（EKC）假说对于理解一个国家的发展道路与其环境的关系至关重要。经济发展过程的影响如何决定环境变化，可以通过EKC的研究来发现。为了了解气候变化的EKC现象，本研究通过回顾现有文献进行。由于二氧化碳、硫氧化物和氮氧化物是导致全球暖化的主要温室气体，因而导致气候变化，研究集中于这些温室气体作为环境知识中心的考虑因素。在了解不同的环境知识中心轨迹后，试图确定环境知识中心对孟加拉国经济发展的影响。结果表明，在大多数情况下，CO2的EKC遵循单调的直线。SOx在大多数情况下都遵循EKC的完整轨迹，而NOx仅在发达国家获得低收入转折点的情况下才有希望。还揭示了孟加拉国在所讨论的污染物和来源方面应遵循的经济政策类型。通过这些讨论，可能会对孟加拉国的政策刺激作出贡献。(C)2010爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis is critical to understanding the developmental path of a nation in relation to its environment. How the effects of economic development processes dictate environmental changes can be found through the study of EKC. To understand the EKC phenomena for climate change, this study was undertaken by reviewing the available literature. As CO2, SOx and NOx are the significant greenhouse gases (GHG) responsible for global warming, thus leading to climate change, the study focused on those GHGs for EKC consideration. With an understanding of the different EKC trajectories, an attempt was made to determine the implications for the economic development of Bangladesh in regards to the EKC. It was shown that EKC for CO2 was following a monotonous straight line in most cases. SOx were shown to follow the full trajectory of the EKC in most situations and NOx was shown the hope only for the developed countries getting the low-income turning point. The type of economic policy that Bangladesh should follow in regards to the discussed pollutants and sources is also revealed. From these discussions, contributions to policy stimulation in Bangladesh are likely to be made. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
