“…Guo et al used the Tapio decoupling entity model to calculate the CO 2 emissions of 30 provinces from 2004 to 2015 and studied the effectiveness of environmental governance policies on reducing carbon emissions [18]. Chao et al analyzed the trends in transportation CO 2 emissions for 29 Eurasian countries and tested the link between transportation development and CO 2 emissions using the Tapio index [19]. As for the construction industry, Ya et al examined the decoupling relationships between economic output and carbon emission by focusing on China's construction industry at both national and provincial levels from 2005 to 2015 [20].…”

The construction industry plays a crucial role in China’s fulfillment of the goal of achieving “carbon neutrality” in 2060. Based on the data of energy and building materials consumption of the construction industry in China and 30 provinces from 2008 to 2018, this paper constructs a model for measuring provincial CO2 emissions of China’s construction industry and establishes a Kuznets curve and elastic decoupling model of the industry’s CO2 emissions. The analysis based on the models shows that: (1) the CO2 emissions of China’s construction industry show a trend of increasing first and then decreasing; (2) in terms of the decoupling effects, most provinces are in a weak decoupling status of CO2 emissions; and (3) the Kuznets curve of the provincial construction industry shows an inverted “U” shape in recent years, and it is predicted that the CO2 emissions of the construction industry will reach the peak in 2034. It is possible for the construction industry to achieve “carbon neutrality”, but long-term efforts must be made for strategic planning, policies and regulations, industry standards, etc.

“…In the contrast, income inequality is negatively associated with carbon emissions through marginal propensity to consume concern over consumers. Likewise, Wang et al ( 2020a , b , c ) and Wang et al ( 2020a , b , c ) examined the relationship between transport-carbon emissions and economic development. They quantified the effect of economic decoupling on environment.…”

“…Afterward, environmental degradation is substantially reduced due to economic development in the Belt and Road countries. Moreover, Wang et al ( 2021a , b ) and Wang et al ( 2020a , b , c ) discussed economic development causes carbon emissions through transport infrastructure development. Transport infrastructure construction also becomes source of carbon emissions during the construction activities such as energy use and transport via fossil fuel, which indicate the economic development process.…”

Environmental quality has been pondered as an essential aspect of sustainable development across the global economies. Several factors such as economic development, income inequality, transportation, and environmental expenditures drastically influence environmental quality. More specifically, the transport sector is a major contributor to carbon emissions which deteriorate the environmental quality. Therefore, this study investigates whether economic development, transportation, environmental expenditures, and income inequality affect transport-carbon emissions for the OECD countries. Furthermore, panel time-series data period from 2000 to 2020 and cross-sectional autoregressive distributed lag method are used for transport-oriented environmental examination. Results demonstrate that transportation upsurges transport-carbon emission level by 46.45% on average. Moreover, the joint effect of economic development and environmental taxes significantly reduces transport-carbon emissions by 14.70%. Findings further suggest that an inverted U-shaped relationship exists between economic development and transport emission. Besides, income inequality, environmental expenditures, and green transportation are negatively associated with the coefficient of transport-carbon emissions. More interestingly, income inequality is negatively correlated with transport-carbon emissions across the sample countries. Furthermore, the joint effect of income inequality and economic development increases the emission level released by the transport sector. Thus, this research recommends some policies: countries should control traffic movements and increase environmental expenditures, and produce green transport vehicles to tackle environmental issues.

This research aims to prove and analyze the effect of total investment, population density and the amount of transportation on environmental degradation in Indonesia. The data used is obtained from the worbank website and the National Statistics Agency. The data used is time series data with a time sequence from 1988 to 2018. The method of analysis used in this research is multiple linear regression processed using SPSS. Based on the results of hypothesis testing, it is found that total investment and population density have no significant effect on environmental degradation in Indonesia, while the amount of transportation has a significant effect on environmental degradation in Indonesia.
