Better to grow or better to improve? : measuring environmental efficiency in OECD countries with a Stochastic Environmental Kuznets Frontier
Badunenko, Oleg; Galeotti, Marzio; Hunt, Lester C. - 2021
The standard approach to the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) holds that as a country develops and GDP per capita grows environmental degradation initially increases but eventually it reaches a turning point where environmental degradation begins to decline. Environmental degradation takes many...
