The roles of international tourism and renewable energy in environment: New evidence from Asian countries

The renewable energy consumption-environmental degradation nexus in Top-10 polluted countries: Fresh insights from quantile-on-quantile regression approach

“…In other areas, we observe a weak positive effect. This segment of finding contradicts the finding of Zhang and Liu (2019), who found the association to be positive. Similarly, in Germany, we observe weak to strong negative effect of renewable energy consumption and carbon emissions on each other across majority of the quantiles.…”

Exploring the nexus between tourism development and environmental quality: Role of Renewable energy consumption and Income

“…Recently, Zhang and Liu (2019) have explored the relation among international tourism, CO 2 emissions, real GDP and energy consumption for Northeast and Southeast regions. The authors have utilized panel unit root tests, LLC, IPS, Fisher-ADF and Fisher-PP, to verify the unit root problems for the annual data set during 1995-2014 and the results have confirmed that variables were non stationary at level and become stationary at first difference at 1% level of significance.…”

“…Real GDP per capita is measured in constant 2010 US$, CO 2 emissions per capita is in kiloton (kt), renewable energy consumption per capita is the % of total final energy and total international tourists’ arrival proxy of tourism development. Inspired by the work of Zhang and Liu (2019) , Zhang and Gao (2017), we have used international tourism while all kinds of numbers of inbound, outbound, domestic tourists can be considered in future research to see their impact on CO 2 emissions. Similarly, paper uses CO 2 emissions per capita by following the previous mentioned work, however, CO 2 emissions from tourism sector can be used to investigate the relation between tourism and emissions once the separate data is available.…”

“…Further, paper builds two hypothesis to test the role of renewable energy consumption and real GDP per capita for policy suggestions to help in pollution reduction. Inspired by Zhang and Liu (2019 and Zhang and Gao (2016) , this study uses real GDP per capita (measured in constant 2010 US$), renewable energy consumption (% of total final energy consumption) per capita, CO 2 emissions (kt) per capita, international tourism arrivals to explore nexus among variables. Paper constructs basic panel model as: …”

Financial Inclusion and Banks Performance: An Empirical Study of 10 West African Countries Using Panel Cointegration FMOLS Regression Methodology

“…The aim of the paper is to assess the impact of financial inclusion on banks performance and explore the linkage that exists between them. The econometric model adopted for the study was used by (Zhang and Gao, 2016;Dogan andAslan, 2017 andLiu, 2019) can be written as: B a n ks p erfo rm a n ce f F in a n cia l In clu sio n sep u m e p o p tra d e …”
