TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the nexus among carbon dioxide emissions, economic and population growth, and renewable energy across regions using an unbalanced panel dataset of 128 countries over the period 1990-2014.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the nexus among per capita carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, gross domestic product (GDP), and natural gas and renewable energy consumption within the framework of the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC), in a 1985-2016 sample of BRICS countries (i.e., Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of fiscal decentralization on CO2 emissions by using a balanced panel dataset of seven OECD countries between 1990 and 2018, and explored the roles institutions and human capital play in the effect of decentralization.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the dynamic causal links among per capita carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, per capita gross domestic product (GDP), per capita fossil fuels consumption, per per capita nuclear energy consumption, and per capita renewable energy consumption within the framework of the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) for the case of China.

TL;DR: For the SSA countries, the upgrading of industrial structure and further improvement of renewable energy are needed and urbanization plays a crucial role in contributing to environmental degradation and requires immediate policy response.
