An obstacle for the transformation to a low-carbon economy is the carbon lock-in: fossil fuel-
based (“dirty”) technologies dominate the market although their carbon-free (“clean”) …

We develop an endogenous growth model with capital, labor and carbon-energy as
production factors and three technology variables that measure accumulated innovations for …

This paper examines how robust economic, political, and demographic variables are related
to water and air pollution. Employing Bayesian Averaging of Classical Estimates (BACE) for …

The environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) is a hypothesis stating that pollution rises with
income at low income levels but falls at higher ones. We analyse the EKC in a …

An analysis of how responsive governance has shaped the evolution of global fisheries in
cyclical patterns of depletion and rebuilding dubbed the “management treadmill.” The …

This paper develops a dynamic two-good (clean and dirty goods), two-sector model to
explore the implications of the macroeconomic environmental rebound/backfire effect for …

Using a recently developed probabilistic approach of a conditional directional distance
function, we measure the effect of economic growth on countries' environmental efficiency in …

Achieving sustainable development requires a transition from the current production fashion
that leads to the environmental degradation to a cleaner production. Such a substitution can …

基于对苏州市1991—2005 年经济增长与工业污染物排放之间关系的研究,
选用多种函数对苏州市的环境库兹涅茨(EKC) 曲线进行估计, 并分析原因. 结果表明 …

Multi-stage modeling provides powerful tools to study optimal switches between different
technologies. In most of the related literature, however, it is assumed that the number of …
