explaining the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC), the purported inverted U-curve relationship between environmental degradation … ageing contributes to an explanation of the EKC via willingness to pay. The main results can be summarised as follows. In … three EKC specifications for air pollutants, we find that the estimated coefficients for population ageing are positive and …

In this paper, we apply time series techniques for panel data to the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) model. Within … the literature that estimates emissions-income relations in the EKC context, little attention has been paid to the time … series properties of the data and in particular to whether the variables could be integrated time series. We estimate the EKC …
