The empirical evidence which is based on panel fixed effects regressions shows that: i) the political empowerment of women as...

The nexus of population dynamics and environmental degradation has been discussed widely in the extant literature. Most related studies have utilized carbon emission as a proxy of environmental quality. However, carbon emission does not capture the multidimensional nature of environmental...
