Abstract

Ekonomik gelişmenin ülkeler için artan önemi, çevre sorunlarını merkezine alan sürdürülebilirlik tartışmalarını da popüler hale getirmiştir. Çevre sorunlarını konu edinen oldukça geniş bir literatür bulunmaktadır. İlgili literatürde genel olarak Çevresel Kuznets Eğrisi Hipotezinin test edildiği ve ekonometrik denklemlere farklı değişkenlerin de eklenerek modellerin genişletildiği görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada Çevresel Kuznets Eğrisi Hipotezi modeli doğrudan yabancı yatırımlar ve küreselleşme indeksi değişkenleriyle genişletilmiş ve panel ekonometrik testlerle E7 ile G7 ülkelerinin bir karşılaştırması yapılmıştır. Tahminlerden elde edilen sonuçlar, G7 ülkelerinde hipotezin geçerli olduğu, E7 ülkelerinde ise geçerli olmadığını ortaya koyarken, her iki ülke grubunda da küreselleşmenin çevresel sorunları azalttığını göstermektedir.

Relationship Between Globalization and Carbon Footprint: a Comparison of E7 and G7 Countries

Abstract

The increasing importance of economic development for countries has also popularized sustainability debates centered on environmental issues. There is a vast literature on environmental problems. In the related literature, the Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis is generally tested and the models are extended by adding different variables to the econometric equations. In this study, the Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis model is extended with foreign direct investments and globalization index variables and a comparison of E7 and G7 countries is made with panel econometric tests. The results obtained from the estimations show that the hypothesis is valid in G7 countries and not valid in E7 countries, while globalization reduces environmental problems in both country groups.
