Abstract:
In this study we have been
trying to examine the asymmetric effect of renewable energy consumption and
trade openness and economic growth on carbon dioxide emission and ecological
footprint in chosen developing and developed countries with quantile on quantile
regression analysis, we used panel data of ten developed and developing
countries in twenty seven years.
In this study we create for
models:
model 1: examine the asymmetric effect of
renewable energy consumption and trade openness and economic growth on carbon
dioxide emission in five developing countries.
model2: examine the asymmetric effect of
renewable energy consumption and trade openness and economic growth on
ecological footprint in five developing countries.
Model3: examine the
asymmetric effect of renewable energy consumption and trade openness and
economic growth on carbon dioxide emission in five developed countries.
Model4: examine the asymmetric effect of renewable
energy consumption and trade openness and economic growth on ecological
footprint in five developed countries.
The result showed that in
model1 most of the quantiles determined the negative impact of renewable energy
consumption on carbon emission although in few quantiles positive impact and no
impact was indicated.
The result showed that in
model1 most of the quantiles determined the positive impact of trade openness
on carbon emission.
The result showed that in
model1 most of the quantiles determined the positive impact of economic growth
on carbon emission.
The result showed
that in model2 most of the quantiles determined the negative impact of
renewable energy consumption on ecological footprint is asymmetric which means
this impact is positive in half of the quantiles and negative in the other
half.
The result showed
that in mode2 most of the quantiles determined the positive impact of trade
openness on carbon emission although in few quantiles negative impact was
indicated.
The result showed that in model2 most of the
quantiles determined the negative impact of economic growth on ecological
footprint is asymmetric which means this impact is positive in half of the
quantiles and negative in the other half.
The result showed
that in model3 most of the quantiles determined the negative impact of
renewable energy consumption on carbon emission is asymmetric which means this
impact is positive in half of the quantiles and negative in the other half.
The result showed that in
model3 most of the quantiles determined the positive impact of trade openness
on carbon emission although in few quantiles no impact was indicated.
The result showed
that in model3 most of the quantiles determined the negative impact of economic
growth on carbon emission is asymmetric which means this impact is positive in
half of the quantiles and negative in the other half.
The result showed
that in model4 most of the quantiles determined the negative impact of
renewable energy consumption on ecological foot print is asymmetric which means
this impact is positive in half of the quantiles and negative in the other
half.
The result showed that in
model4 most of the quantiles determined the positive impact of trade openness
on ecological foot print although in few quantiles negative impact and no
impact was indicated.
The result showed that in
model4 most of the quantiles determined the positive impact of economic growth
on ecological foot print.
