The objective of the research is to evaluate the effect of technology on environmental pollution. Panel data econometric techniques such as Generalized Least Squares (GLS) and quantile regressions by Canay (2011), Powell (2016) and Chernozhukov, Fernández-Val & Melly (2020) are used, this methodology allows capturing the heterogeneous distribution of the pending. The data were obtained from the World Bank (2020) for 122 countries classified according to their income level in the period 1996 - 2018. The results focus on the fulfillment of the Kuznets curve at the global level, PIA and PIMB, where showed a heterogeneous distribution in the quantiles. Likewise, exports and income from natural resources showed a positive effect on pollution throughout the distribution. The contribution of the research is to contribute to the existing empirical evidence, obtaining new results through a methodology that has not been estimated in previous studies. That is why governments must implement rigid environmental laws that prevent increased pollution, in such a way that companies invest in green technologies. Likewise, create restrictive policies regarding the establishment of foreign companies that pollute the environment through their productive activities. In addition, the economies that are clearly extractivist of raw materials, which are mostly GDP and GDP, change their productive matrix to avoid the depletion of natural resources. |
