Opis
Izvleček:This paper provides evidence of the existence of an Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) in the long-run for Argentina from 1970 to 2012 which is the country with most production of meat in the region. There is a dynamic relationship between methane emissions, economic growth and agriculture activities. The autoregressive distributed lag methodology was used to test for cointegration in the long-run. Furthermore, we used the vector error correction model to test for causality and to verify the predictive value of independent variables. In fact, a quadratic relationship was found between methane emissions and economic growth. The effect of agriculture was the only unexpected, and that is because the reduction of methane emissions thanks to suitable policies related to the use of technology in agriculture activities.
