To further explore these dynamics, we conduct separate analyses for each country to examine the connection between innovation, financial development, and environmental pollution. Our results indicate that the short-term impact of innovation varies considerably across most G-20 countries. Nonetheless, in ...
While the social planner would allocate the task of reducing the regional emissions levels by 30% (stipulated by the Copenhagen accord) to countries with the lowest marginal abatement costs, this approach will require complete elimination of industrial sector in most of the region's countries. We ...
