Uncovering the impact of income inequality and population aging on carbon emission efficiency: An empirical analysis of 139 countries

Qiang Wang et al.

Summary: Income inequality and carbon emission efficiency are crucial factors in achieving UN sustainable development goals. However, research on the relationship between these two factors has been lacking. This study uses panel data from 139 countries between 1998 and 2018 to explore how income inequality affects carbon emission efficiency, considering the influence of aging and economic growth. The results indicate that income inequality inhibits the improvement of carbon emission efficiency and that the relationship between income inequality and carbon emission efficiency is influenced by aging and economic growth, showing U-shaped and inverted U-shaped patterns respectively. Policy recommendations are provided based on the changes in spatial and temporal distributions.

Revisiting the environmental kuznets curve hypothesis in 208 counties: The roles of trade openness, human capital, renewable energy and natural resource rent

Qiang Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of trade openness, human capital, renewable energy, and natural resource rent on carbon emissions within the framework of the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis. The results show that the EKC hypothesis is validated when considering the effects of these factors. The relationship between income level and carbon emissions follows an inverted U-shaped curve, and the EKC turning point occurs at a real GDP per capita of $19,203. Renewable energy consumption and human capital have different effects on carbon emissions before and after the EKC turning point, while trade openness only mitigates carbon emissions in countries with weak decoupling after the turning point.

Trade protectionism jeopardizes carbon neutrality-Decoupling and breakpoints roles of trade openness

Qiang Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the decoupling impact of trade on carbon emissions and explores the circumstances under which trade can contribute to decoupling carbon emissions. A combination of the Tapio decoupling model and structural threshold model is used to analyze and quantify the impact. The empirical study utilizes panel data from 124 countries worldwide from 2000 to 2018. The results indicate that the relationship between trade openness, economic growth, and carbon emissions primarily exhibits weak decoupling. Additionally, there are two breakpoints in the impact of trade openness on carbon emissions; once these structural breakpoints are exceeded, trade openness inhibits carbon emissions and contributes to global carbon neutrality, contradicting the claims of trade protectionists. At the sub-regional level, trade openness favors carbon neutrality in affluent countries but not in impoverished countries. Therefore, achieving carbon neutrality necessitates free trade, and fairer free trade should benefit countries of different income groups.

Does income inequality reshape the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis? A nonlinear panel data analysis

Qiang Wang et al.

Summary: The research finds that income inequality changes the relationship between economic growth and carbon emissions, shifting it from an inverted U-shape to an N-shape, thus increasing the complexity of decoupling economic growth from carbon emissions. During periods of low income inequality, economic growth increases carbon emissions, but as income inequality increases, economic growth suppresses carbon emissions. This phenomenon is more pronounced in high-income countries.

Summary: Urbanization strengthens the positive correlation between economic growth and environmental quality, with economic growth having a greater impact on ecological footprint. Trade openness and natural resource rents increase environmental pressure, while population aging and renewable energy help improve environmental quality.

Coupling between energy efficiency and industrial structure: An urban agglomeration case

Xipan Wang et al.

Summary: Understanding the interactions between energy efficiency and industrial structure is crucial for sustainable urban development, with a need to further unravel the coupling mechanism to form a positive cycle. Research on the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration reveals significant differences in cities' energy efficiency, with high levels of industrial reasonability and advancement, but middle-lower levels of industrial concentration.

How to improve total factor energy efficiency? An empirical analysis of the Yangtze River economic belt of China

Liwei Tang et al.

Summary: The study found that in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, technological efficiency has almost zero contribution to the growth of total factor energy efficiency (TFEE), technological progress has a negative impact on TFEE, and scale efficiency changes are crucial for TFEE growth. The TFEE of the western region is narrowing the gap with the central and eastern regions, and research investment is a key factor that can significantly improve TFEE growth.

Summary: The study reveals an asymmetric effect of income inequality on renewable energy consumption, where higher income inequality leads to a stronger promotion of renewable energy consumption. Policy implications suggest reducing income inequality in ASEAN-5 to promote renewable energy consumption and achieve carbon neutrality targets.

Coupling analysis of urbanization and ecological total factor energy efficiency -- A case study from Hebei province in China

Feng Ren et al.

Summary: The study indicates that the level of urbanization in eastern Hebei, central Hebei, northern Hebei, and southern Hebei ranks from high to low, with room for improvement in each region. The overall trend of ecological total factor energy efficiency values of cities is increasing, and the coupling coordination degree is transitioning from a low-moderate stage to a moderate-high stage. This provides valuable reference for policymakers in formulating urbanization and energy efficiency policies.

Unveiling the asymmetric impact of exports, oil prices, technological innovations, and income inequality on carbon emissions in India

Zhilun Jiao et al.

Summary: In a developing country like India, foreign trade can have both positive and negative impacts on carbon emissions. The study reveals that an increase in exports and technological innovation leads to an increase in carbon emissions, while a decrease in exports, higher oil prices, and increased income inequality can help reduce carbon emissions in the long run. The findings suggest the need for a balanced approach in economic development and environmental protection.

Can the semi-urbanization of population promote or inhibit the improvement of energy efficiency in China?

Jingwei Han et al.

Summary: This article investigates the impact of the semi-urbanization of population on energy efficiency in China, finding that maintaining a moderate number of semi-urbanized population can help improve energy efficiency, while the growth of semi-urbanized population suppresses its improvement. Complete urbanization can promote energy efficiency, but the presence of large-scale semi-urbanized population inhibits this positive effect.

Symmetric and Asymmetric Impact of Poverty, Income Inequality, and Population on Carbon Emission in Pakistan: New Evidence From ARDL and NARDL Co-Integration

Salim Khan et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of poverty, income inequality, population, and GDP on carbon emissions in Pakistan. It found that poverty, population density, and GDP per capita increase carbon emissions in both the short and long-run, while income inequality has no direct impact in the short-run and weakens environmental degradation in the long-run. The findings provide policy implications for Pakistan in alignment with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.
