“…In other words, when there is (as the ekc hypothesis predicts) an inverse relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation in an economy, it means that economic development causes an environmental improvement after per capita income reaches a critical threshold (Pontarollo & Mendieta Muñoz, 2020;Sarkodie & Ozturk, 2020). According to Zilio (2012), this pattern can be explained as follows: if the poorest sectors of society cannot cover their basic needs, such as nutrition, education, and healthcare, they will not demand environmental improvements (Zilio, 2012). Conversely, the richest societies will demand measures to achieve less environmental degradation and exert pressure to establish protective measures and stricter regulations (Dinda, 2004).…”

Objetive: This paper analyzes the environmental Kuznets curve (ekc) for the North American Free Trade Agreement (nafta) countries during 1971-2014. Methodology: In this regard, unit root, co-integration, and causality tests are applied making use of the data panel approach. Results: Results suggest that the series in this research are integrated of order one, and a long-run relationship among variables is observed. Besides, the ekc hypothesis is confirmed. In addition, the analysis shows that renewable energy and trade openness contribute to reducing pollution in these countries. Limitations/implications: Further research should be done to include other variables such as financial development and human capital. Originality/value: The present paper contributes to understanding the relationship between trade openness and renewable energy consumption, on the one hand, and pollution, on the other. Conclusions: Policies concerned to trade openness and environmental issues should consider renewable energy and trade to reduce pollutant emissions in these countries.

Empirical Evidence in Ecuador between Economic Growth and Environmental Deterioration

Currently, obtaining evidence of the correlation between economic growth and environmental deterioration is of great relevance. Due to an increase in economic activity, an increase in CO2 emissions and its possible effects on the current climate change is very worrying. The studies that analyze this correlation serve as a basis for the awareness of countries and the establishment of policies worldwide to curb such deterioration. The objective of this research is achieved through a panel data model and spatial econometric techniques to address the relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation in Ecuador. A regression model is proposed where the deterioration dependent variable is CO2 emissions, which is also an independent variable for the provincial gross value added. Poverty and inequality are considered as control variables in order to observe their effects on CO2 emission. The results are coherent with what is stated by the theory and describe an inverted U-shaped curve. They also show that the generation of pollutant emissions is directly related to the growth of the vehicle fleet and inversely related with the population’s schooling levels. The spatial effects are significant and the spatial impact multipliers indicate that the strongest direct and indirect effect is the one caused by the generation of car emissions per capita. This variable is relevant for the design of public policy aimed at improving environmental quality.

“…Los mecanismos de desarrollo limpio forman parte de un grupo de mecanismos establecidos dentro del Protocolo de Kyoto (1998), estos mecanismos de flexibilidad sirven para la reducción de las emisiones de los GEI, los cuáles a largo plazo son fundamentales para ayudar a mitigar los efectos de la degradación ambiental (Zilio, 2012). A continuación, en la tabla 2, se visualizan los proyectos de MDL que se encuentran registrados por los miembros de la Alianza del Pacífico.…”

Este artículo tiene el objetivo principal de demostrar la existencia o no, de la hipótesis de la curva ambiental de Kuznets (CAK) en forma de U invertida en los países de la Alianza del Pacífico. Se consideraron los cuatro países que conforman el bloque comercial como ámbito de estudio, aplicando herramientas metodológicas como, los modelos Autorregresivos de Rezagos Distribuidos (ARDL). Se estimaron las relaciones existentes entre el crecimiento económico, como variable independiente, y las emisiones de CO2, como variable dependiente, en el corto y largo plazo. El periodo de análisis comprendió una serie de tiempo desde el año 1991 hasta el 2017. Se consideraron cinco variantes de los modelos propuestos incluyendo variables como: la población, la inversión extranjera directa (IED), el desempleo, el coeficiente de Gini y las exportaciones de bienes y servicios. El principal aporte de esta investigación radica en presentar la relación existente entre las principales variables de crecimiento económico y las emisiones de CO2 en los miembros de la alianza económica, en donde, México evidenció un mayor cumplimiento de la hipótesis de la curva ambiental de Kuznets de acuerdo a los datos analizados en el periodo de estudio.
