This paper is an effort to fill the gap in the energy literature with an in-depth country study for Nigeria. In order to find the main driving forces affecting short and long run CO2 emission patterns and the relationship between economic growth and CO2 emissions in Nigerian economy over the...

Continuous emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) from human activities are likely to result in significant changes in climate. The issues of climate change are a part of major dispute for sustainable development because effects of climate changes are visible in various forms such as rise in the...

As the consumption of energy is responsible for approximately, 80% of GHG in EU, the impact of energy activity on the environment has received increasing attention over the last decades from scholars, researchers, politicians and society as a whole. Within EU member countries it is commonly...

A primary motivation of telework policy is to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Using a numerical simulation of the standard urban model, we show telework causes sprawl, calling into question the idea that telework decreases energy consumption. Overall effects depend on...

National greenhouse gas mitigation plans are usually comprised of multiple policy actions that aim to advance GHG emission reductions within the national boundaries. The paper provides an overview and evaluation of actions that have been undertaken for improving energy efficient operations since...

The study investigates the direction of causal relationships among emissions, energy consumption and economic growth in Nigeria using annual time series data for the period 1970-2013. The Johansen maximum likelihood cointegration tests indicate an existence of a unique cointegrating vector, and...

Exploring the short-run and long-run relationships between consumption of various sources of non-renewable energy, economic growth and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions would be considered as a golden key to provide rational energy policies of Iran in the post sanctions era. The aim of this paper...
