Role of Natural resources rent on economic growth: Fresh empirical insight from selected developing economies

Yiling Yu

Summary: This study analyzes the relationship between natural resource rents and economic growth in selected developing economies between 1990 and 2020. The findings show that natural resource rent has a negative impact on economic development in Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Afghanistan, but a positive impact on economic growth in Pakistan and India, suggesting that natural resources benefit these countries' economies. Vietnam and Sri Lanka exhibit long-term asymmetric effects, while Bhutan and the Maldives show short-term asymmetric effects. These empirical findings have important policy implications.

Urbanisation-driven land degradation and socioeconomic challenges in peri-urban areas: Insights from Southern Europe

Samaneh Seifollahi-Aghmiuni et al.

Summary: Climate change and landscape transformation have led to rapid expansion of peri-urban areas globally, resulting in land degradation and environmental degradation. This paper focuses on Southern Europe as a case study to examine the interactions between urbanization-driven factors and land degradation, highlighting the importance of socioeconomic drivers such as population growth and urban sprawl. It also suggests three key measures for future land management in peri-urban areas.

The environmental Kuznets curve, based on the economic complexity, and the pollution haven hypothesis in PIIGS countries

Daniel Balsalobre-Lorente et al.

Summary: This study investigates the dynamic association between economic complexity, foreign direct investment, renewable energy, urbanization process, and carbon emissions in PIIGS countries. The results show an inverted-U and further N-shaped relationship between economic complexity and CO2 emissions, confirming the presence of the environmental Kuznets curve hypotheses. The findings also support the pollution haven hypothesis and reveal the inhibiting effect of renewable energy on CO2 emissions. Urbanization process exerts significant pressure on environmental quality. Additionally, a bidirectional causal link is found between economic complexity and CO2 emissions.

Nexus between Technological Innovation, Renewable Energy, and Human Capital on the Environmental Sustainability in Emerging Asian Economies: A Panel Quantile Regression Approach

Miguel Angel Esquivias et al.

Summary: This study examines the relationship between renewable energy, technology innovation, human capital, governance, and environmental quality in Asian emerging economies from 1990 to 2019. The findings suggest that economic growth, population density, technological innovation in renewable energy, and exploitation of natural resources contribute to increased CO2 emissions in emerging Asia. However, larger capital, use of renewable energy, green technology, and human capital development have a positive impact on environmental sustainability in Asia. The study also indicates that corruption rates do not necessarily lead to more environmental damage. The findings provide insights for environmental policy proposals related to consumption, energy composition, and technology choices. Investments in human development, new technologies for energy efficiency, increased working capital, and transitioning to more environmentally friendly energy sources offer opportunities for reducing CO2 emissions and achieving sustainable environmental goals.

Does environmental policy stringency reduce CO2 emissions? Evidence from high-polluted economies

Qin Yirong

Summary: The study aims to analyze the asymmetric effects of environmental policy stringency on CO2 emissions in top emitter's economies such as China, USA, India, Russia, and Japan. The findings show that increasing or decreasing environmental policy stringency can lead to a reduction in CO2 emissions in the long run, and policymakers should consider both positive and negative changes when formulating environment-related regulations.

How environmental taxes and carbon emissions are related in the G7 economies?

Buhari Dogan et al.

Summary: The paper explores the impact of an environmental tax on carbon emissions for the G7 nations from 1994 to 2014, as well as the importance of factors such as energy use, economic complexity, natural resources rent, and economic growth in driving emissions. The study confirms the Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis for the G7 countries and examines the marginal effects of an environmental tax on traditional energy consumption, natural resources rent, and renewable energy consumption. The findings suggest that environmental taxes effectively reduce emissions for the G7 countries, and the marginal effects of the tax vary with the level of taxation.

The nexus between remittances, natural resources, technological innovation, economic growth, and environmental sustainability in Pakistan

Minhaj Ali et al.

Summary: This research examines the impact of remittances, natural resources, technological innovation, and economic growth on carbon dioxide emissions in Pakistan, while controlling for energy consumption and urbanization. The study finds that an increase in remittances has a significant positive association with CO2 emissions in the long run, indicating a negative impact on the environmental performance of Pakistan. On the other hand, natural resources decrease CO2 emissions. Furthermore, technological advancement, economic progress, energy use, and urbanization all contribute to an increase in CO2 emissions.

Towards achieving eco-efficiency in top 10 polluted countries: The role of green technology and natural resource rents

Fu Chen et al.

Summary: This study examines the influence of green technology and natural resource rents on eco-efficiency using panel data from the top 10 polluted nations. The results show that green technology, natural resource rents, the squared term of economic complexity, and the interaction term of green technology with financial development positively affect eco-efficiency. However, financial development has a negative impact on eco-efficiency. The study suggests that governments should focus on improving environmental quality and shifting investment programs towards green strategies.

The Patterns of Energy Innovation Convergence across European Countries

Tomasz Kijek et al.

Summary: The research identifies patterns of energy innovation convergence among 27 European countries from 2000 to 2018, demonstrating that these patterns are influenced by differences in environmental R&D expenditure, human resources in science and technology, and environmental policy stringency. The findings suggest the need for tailored policies to boost energy innovation performance, particularly in less technologically advanced sectors.

Feasible generalized least squares for panel data with cross-sectional and serial correlations

Jushan Bai et al.

Summary: This paper presents a feasible generalized least squares (GLS) estimator for linear panel data models, which is more efficient than ordinary least squares in the presence of heteroskedasticity, serial, and cross-sectional correlations. The covariance matrix for the feasible GLS is estimated using the banding and thresholding method. The proposed estimator's limiting distribution is established, and it is validated through a Monte Carlo study and empirical application.

A homogeneous approach to testing for Granger non-causality in heterogeneous panels

Arturas Juodis et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a new method for testing Granger non-causality in panel data models, valid for large cross-sectional and time series dimensions with homogeneous or heterogeneous coefficients. The approach utilizes pooled least-squares estimation and the Split Panel Jackknife method to address the Nickell bias, leading to a Wald test based on bias-corrected estimates. Empirical evidence suggests that the proposed method outperforms existing procedures in various settings.

When Should You Adjust Standard Errors for Clustering?*

Alberto Abadie et al.

Summary: Clustered standard errors are common in empirical research in economics and other disciplines, but the current econometric framework has some unanswered questions regarding reasons for adjusting standard errors in certain ways, validity of clustered variance estimator, and impact of clustering choices. A novel framework has been proposed to address these issues by introducing new variance estimators that correct bias in conventional clustered standard errors when a significant portion of clusters are observed in the population.
