摘要: This paper investigates the causal relationships between per capita CO2 emissions, gross domestic product (GDP), renewable and non-renewable energy consumption, international trade for a panel of 25 OECD countries over period 1980–2010. Short-run Granger causality tests show existence bidirectional between: consumption imports, (exports or imports); unidirectional running from: exports to energy, output energy. There are also long-run causalities all our considered variables. Our fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) dynamic (DOLS) estimates that inverted U-shaped environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis is verified this sample countries. They increasing increases emissions. Interestingly, reduces According these results, more use efficient strategies combat global warming in
