Institutional integrity and carbon emissions

Applied 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 ...
