TLDR
In this paper, the authors examined the relationship between urbanization, energy consumption, foreign direct investment (FDI), and carbon dioxide (CO2) emission of 17 countries in the South and Southeast Asian (SSEA) region during the period 1980-2012.Abstract:
This study examines the relationship between urbanization, energy consumption, foreign direct investment (FDI), and carbon dioxide (CO2) emission of 17 countries in the South and Southeast Asian (SSEA) region during the period 1980–2012. In order to find out the intensity of CO2 emission in 17 countries, we classify the total sample countries into three sub-groups, namely high, middle, and low-income countries. These three sub-panels are constructed based on their gross national income per capita of countries. Pedroni cointegration result shows that urbanization; primary energy consumption, FDI, and CO2 emission are cointegrated in all sub-groups of countries, regardless of their levels of national income per capita. Furthermore, while incorporating the fossil fuel energy consumption in place of primary energy consumption in the alternative specification of regression, the result suggests a cointegrating relationship between fossil fuel energy consumption, FDI, urbanization, and CO2 emission in middle-income countries. Nevertheless, Westerlund cointegration results are more or less in the line of Pedroni results. Furthermore, the results reveal that primary energy consumption, fossil fuel energy consumption, and FDI are substantially affecting the CO2 emission in the SSEA region. Moreover, the empirical findings suggest that in middle-income countries, both primary and fossil fuel energy consumption are considerably increasing the CO2 emission, and leading to greenhouse gas problem in the SSEA region.read more

Spillover effects of urbanization on carbon emissions: A global view from 2000 to 2019
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the spillover effects of urbanization on carbon emissions and highlighted the importance of developing policies for sustainable urbanization and carbon emission reduction globally, and showed that an increase in proportion of added value of secondary and tertiary industries to gross domestic product (GDP) tended to be associated with higher per capita carbon emissions.

A Comparative Study of Unit Root Tests with Panel Data and a New Simple Test
G. S. Maddala,Shaowen Wu +1 more
TL;DR: The Im-Pesaran-Shin (IPS) test as discussed by the authors relaxes the restrictive assumption of the LL test and is best viewed as a test for summarizing the evidence from independent tests of the sample hypothesis.

A simple panel unit root test in the presence of cross-section dependence
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple alternative where the standard ADF regressions are augmented with the cross section averages of lagged levels and first-differences of the individual series is proposed, and it is shown that the individual CADF statistics are asymptotically similar and do not depend on the factor loadings.

Panel cointegration: asymptotic and finite sample properties of pooled time series tests with an application to the ppp hypothesis
TL;DR: This paper examined properties of residual-based tests for the null of no cointegration for dynamic panels in which both the short-run dynamics and the long-run slope coefficients are permitted to be heterogeneous across individual members of the panel.
