Institutional integrity and carbon emissions

open access: yesApplied Economics, 2022
Abstract Institutions affect environmental quality by enabling economic growth, supporting environmental protection policies, and regulating industries. In this paper, we empirically examine the impact of institutions on carbon emissions. Using the Generalized Methods of Moments and an unbalanced panel of 120 countries from 1984 to 2016, we ...

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Income Inequality and Carbon Emissions [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2012
We document a U-shaped relationship between income inequality and carbon dioxide emissions per capita, using a newly available panel data set on income inequality (GINI) with observations for 138 countries over the period 1960–2008. Our findings suggest that, for high-income countries with high income inequality, pro-poor growth and reduced per capita ...
