MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: This paper discusses the interplay between environmental challenges, the COVID-19 pandemic, and economic dynamics across the American continent, utilizing the Environmental Kuznets Curve framework to explain how economic growth interacts with environmental degradation amid unprecedented market volatility. By synthesizing empirical research from Latin and North America, diverse responses in environmental policies and economic performance are noticed, highlighting shifts in sustainable investments and disruptions in food supply chains. The analysis underscores the critical need for coordinated, data-driven policy efforts that align short-term recovery measures with long-term environmental sustainability in a post-pandemic landscape.
