Non-renewable and renewable energy consumption and CO2 emissions in OECD countries: A comparative analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the determinants of CO 2 emissions using the STIRPAT model and data from 1980 to 2011 for OECD countries, and find that non-renewable energy consumption increases CO2 emissions whereas renewable energy consumption decreases CO 2 emission.

The effects of FDI, economic growth and energy consumption on carbon emissions in ASEAN-5: Evidence from panel quantile regression

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of foreign direct investment, economic growth and energy consumption on carbon emissions in five selected member countries in the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN-5), including Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand.

The impact of economic growth, industrial structure and urbanization on carbon emission intensity in China

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors quantitatively studied the impact of China's economic growth, industrial structure and urbanization on carbon emission intensity based on the historical data from 1978 to 2011.

Age-Structure, Urbanization, and Climate Change in Developed Countries: Revisiting STIRPAT for Disaggregated Population and Consumption-Related Environmental Impacts

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on three environmental impacts particularly influenced by population age-structure, including carbon emissions from transport and residential energy and electricity consumption, as well as aggregate carbon emissions for a panel of developed countries, and take as their starting point the STIRPAT framework.

Urbanisation, energy consumption, and carbon dioxide emissions in China: A panel data analysis of China’s provinces

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the relationship between urbanisation, energy consumption, and CO 2 emissions over the period 1995-2011, using a panel data model, based on the data for 30 Chinese provinces.

Impact of Population Growth

Paul R. Ehrlich, +1 more
- 26 Mar 1971 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that population growth causes a disproportionate negative impact on the environment and that the control of population is necessary but not sufficient means of seeing us through the whole crisis of environmental deterioration.

STIRPAT, IPAT and ImPACT: analytic tools for unpacking the driving forces of environmental impacts

TL;DR: In this paper, the STIRPAT model is augmented with measures of ecological elasticity, which allows for a more precise specification of the sensitivity of environmental impacts to the forces driving them.

Effects of population and affluence on CO2 emissions

TL;DR: The general value of the IPAT model is confirmed as a starting point for understanding the anthropogenic driving forces of global change and it is suggested that population and economic growth anticipated over the next decade will exacerbate greenhouse gas emissions.

Does urbanization lead to less energy use and lower CO2 emissions?A cross-country analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effects of urbanization on energy use and CO2 emissions with consideration of the different development stages and found that urbanization decreases energy use in the low-income group, while it increases energy consumption in the middle and high-income groups.
