“…In addition, this is the first time that the method in our study has been provided and applied on environmental issues. Mielnik and Goldemberg (1999) and Roca and Alc antara (2001) propose the ideas of emission intensity and carbonization value, but this present study is the first to discuss room for improvements in these aspects, as well as room for improvement in energy intensity by examining empirical evidence of G7 and BRICS countries for 2000e2010.…”

“…The relationship among emission intensity (CO 2 /GDP), carbonization index (CO 2 /E), and energy intensity (E/GDP) can be shown as follows (see Mielnik and Goldemberg, 1999;Roca and Alc antara, 2001):…”

This study examines the linkages among economic growth, energy consumption, financial development, trade openness and CO 2 emissions over the period of 1975Q 1 -2011Q 4 in the case of Indonesia. The stationary analysis is performed by using Zivot-Andrews structural break unit root test and the ARDL bounds testing approach for a long run relationship between the series in the presence of structural breaks. The causal relation between the concerned variable is examined by the VECM Granger causality technique and robustness of causal analysis is tested by innovative accounting approach (IAA). Our results confirm that the variables are cointegrated; it means that the long run relationship exists in the presence of structural break stemming in the series. The empirical findings indicate that economic growth and energy consumption increases CO 2 emissions, while financial development and trade openness compact it. The VECM causality analysis has shown the feedback hypothesis between energy consumption and CO 2 emissions. Economic growth and CO 2 emissions are also interrelated i.e. bidirectional causality. Financial development Granger causes CO 2 emissions. The study opens up a new policy insights to control the environment from degradation by using energy efficient technologies. Financial development and trade openness can also play their role in improving the environmental quality.

“…Así pues, el crecimiento del PIB crea las condiciones necesarias para mejorar el medio ambiente al estimular la demanda por mejorar la calidad medioambiental. En este último punto, Roca (2003) afirma que una vez que el ingreso alcanza cierto monto, la disponibilidad a pagar por un medio ambiente más limpio aumenta en una mayor proporción que el ingreso. La hipótesis de la CAK proviene de la importante cantidad de estudios realizados a inicios del decenio de los noventa.…”

El artículo hace un análisis de la relación entre crecimiento económico y medio ambiente para las 32 entidades federativas de la República Mexicana. La curva ambiental de Kuznets (CAK) sugiere la existencia de una relación entre crecimiento económico y medio ambiente. A medida que las economías disfrutan un mayor crecimiento económico, se presenta una degradación ambiental y una vez que se alcanza cierto crecimiento, aumenta la disponibilidad a pagar por la conservación del medio ambiente. En el caso de la economía mexicana, al aplicar el análisis de convergencia por medio de datos de corte transversal y datos de panel, se encuentra que: i) existe β convergencia en árboles plantados, áreas naturales protegidas, licencias ambientales y volumen de tratamiento de aguas en sus niveles per capita; ii) no hay evidencia de σ-convergencia en las variables medio ambientales para los estados de la economía mexicana, excepto en áreas naturales protegidas, árboles plantados y licencias ambientales; iii) no existe una relación entre crecimiento económico y aumento en el cuidado de las variables medioambientales, excepto para el volumen de recolección de basura y el volumen de aguas residuales; iv) los resultados sugieren que el medio ambiente no está entre las prioridades de la economía mexicana de acuerdo con la hipótesis de la CAK.
