Yet, it seems more likely that economic growth could eventually reduce the concentrations of local pollutants...

The Niger Delta region is the oil producing area of Nigeria, which consist of highly diverse ecosystems that is supportive of numerous species of terrestrial and aquatic fauna and flora. This region is the largest wetland in Africa and it is among the ten most important wetlands and marine...

This research uses annual time series data on CO2 emissions in India from 1960 to 2017, to model and forecast CO2 using the Box – Jenkins ARIMA approach. Our diagnostic tests indicate that India CO2 emission data is I (2). The study presents the ARIMA (2, 2, 0) model. The diagnostic tests...

This paper examines the impact on the environment of economic growth and trade openness in 261 cities in the People's Republic of China (PRC) over the period 2004-2013, using a recently developed, continuously updated, fully modified method that allows for cross-sectional dependence and...

We construct a strategic trade model of an international duopoly, whereby production by exporting firms generates a local pollutant. Governments use environmental policies, i.e., an emissions standard or a tax, to control pollution and for rent shifting purposes. Contrary to their firm, however,...
