Re-examining the pollution-income relationship: a random coefficients approach

Matthew A. Cole ()

Economics Bulletin, 2005, vol. 14, issue 1, pages 1-7

Abstract: This paper re-examines the pollution-income relationship using a random coefficients model to allow for greater cross-country heterogeneity. The existence of a common pollution-income relationship across countries is rejected and hence little support for the environmental Kuznets curve is found.
