Sustainable development with extractive and non-extractive use of the environment in production

F. Butter and Marjan Hofkes

Environmental & Resource Economics, 1995, vol. 6, issue 4, 358 pages

Abstract: This paper considers an economy in which the environment plays a role both in welfare and production. An endogenous growth model, which allows for abatement activities, is formulated in order to study the impact of pollution on welfare and long-term growth. Conditions for optimal and balanced economic growth are discussed and a numerical example is given to provide some insight in the mechanisms at work in the model.
