An inverted-U relationship between GDP per capita and three urban transport-related emissions is tested (using data from 84 cities). Per capita urban transport-related emissions of CO, VHC, and NOx increase and then decline at observed income levels — a result driven by a similar inverted-U...

Automobile exhaust emission are an important feature of urban environment contamination due to movement of high traffic density and are widely believed to have detrimental effects on plant growth. The effects of automobile exhaust emission on the germination and early seedling growth performance...

4207 I examine the association between nighttime light luminosity and ten pollution measures (CO2, CO, NOx,SO2, NMVOC, NH3, BC, OC, PM10 and PM2.5) across different political regimes at a local level. Although the effects of the political system and economic growth on pollution have been widely...

The developing economies of Asia are confronted by serious environmental problems that threaten to undermine future growth, food security, and regional stability. This study considers four major environmental challenges that policymakers across developing Asia will need to address towards 2030:...

This article extends the recent findings of Liu (2005), Ang (2007), Apergis et al. (2009) and Payne (2010) by implementing recent bootstrap panel unit root tests and cointegration techniques to investigate the relationship between carbon dioxide emissions, energy consumption, and real GDP for 12...
