Abstract

Economic growth has been crucial in contributing to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the Industrial Revolution, and it affects CO2 emissions heterogeneously with different income levels. Therefore, studying the role of economic growth on inequality in carbon emissions is imperative. This paper analyses the determinants of CO2 emissions inequality in the panel dataset of 37 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries from 1990 to 2019. Age dependency, globalisation, and institutional quality reduce CO2 inequality in the OECD economies. However, gross domestic product per capita increases CO2 inequality. The results are robust to utilise different panel data estimation techniques. This paper provides the first evidence in the literature of determinants of CO2 inequality across the OECD countries. It is suggested that governments in the OECD economies offer a blueprint for a sustainable society of green economic growth. Other potential policy implications are also discussed.
经合组织国家的全球化和二氧化碳排放不平等
自工业革命以来,经济增长对二氧化碳排放的贡献至关重要,不同收入水平对二氧化碳排放的影响也不尽相同。因此,研究经济增长对碳排放不平等的作用势在必行。本文分析了1990年至2019年37个经济合作与发展组织(OECD)国家面板数据集中二氧化碳排放不平等的决定因素。年龄依赖性、全球化和制度质量降低了经合组织经济体的二氧化碳不平等。然而,人均国内生产总值增加了二氧化碳的不平等。使用不同的面板数据估计技术,结果具有鲁棒性。本文提供了OECD国家二氧化碳不平等决定因素文献中的第一个证据。建议经合组织经济体的政府为绿色经济增长的可持续社会提供蓝图。本文还讨论了其他潜在的政策影响。
