MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: The study aims at analyzing the relationship between economic growth Environmental degradation in Côte d'Ivoire over the period 1990-2020. To do so, we applied the STIRPAT (Stochastic Impacts by Regression on Population, Affluence and Technology) model of Ehrlich-oldren (1971 ; 1972), improved by Dietz and Rosa (1997) and York et al. (2003), which allows to catch the effects of macroeconomic variables on the environment. The results of the test indicate a long-run relationship between the variables, and the results of the long-run model confirm the Kuznets environmental curve hypothesis for the Ivorian economy with a GDP per capita turning point of 2008 US Dollars. We also find that energy consumption, urbanization and industry have significant positive effects on CO2 emissions. The Toda-Yamamoto approach shows that there is a unidirectional causality from economic growth to carbon dioxide emissions in Côte d'Ivoire.
