Using a vector error correction model, this paper investigates the long-run relation with short-run dynamics among CO2 emission, technological progress and economic growth. It observes a specific kind of causality running from technological progress to reduction of CO2 emission in the United...

The destructive role of institutional quality such as corruption has been considered an important factor for economic growth, particularly in the European Union, where such practices dealt with zero tolerance. Environmental degradation such as massive carbon emissions is stressing the global...

The exponential rise in energy-related carbon emissions poses a severe risk to both human and other species on the earth. The existence of a two-way relationship between economic growth and energy-specific carbon emissions needs to be delinked to achieve a low carbon economy. The current study...
