In this paper we examine the influence of foreign direct investment inflows on energy intensities of developing … countries empirically. We first show that a simple OLS estimation, as it is found in the literature, suggests energy intensity … reductions from FDI inflows, which is consistent with the hypothesis of energy saving technology transfer via FDI. However, such …

This study attempts a numerical simulation of potential CCS (carbon dioxide capture and storage) use by using a modified version of the DICE (Dynamic Integrated model on Climate and Economy) model (Nordhaus, 1994; Nordhaus and Boyer, 2000). In DICE, CO2 emissions are controlled to the extent in...

This concept is used to examine … a panel of data for evidence of a causal relationship between GDP and carbon emissions. The technique is compared to the …

This paper examines empirically whether oil price shocks impact stock market returns. Using monthly data for eight developed countries from January 1991 to September 2013, strong negative connections between oil price and stock market returns are found in seven of the selected countries. Oil...

To investigate the link between rising global temperature and global energy use, we estimate an energy demand model …-linearities in the impact of temperature on energy demand as well as temperature-income interactions. We find that oil, gas and … electricity use are driven by a non-linear heating effect: Energy use not only decreases with rising temperatures due to a reduced …

Large-scale agricultural land acquisitions might entail substantial welfare implications for the affected rural population. Whether the impacts are indeed as devastating as the popular notion of "land grabs" would suggest depends on a number of factors, including the size of compensation...
