How industrialization and urbanization process impacts on CO2 emissions in China: Evidence from nonparametric additive regression models (2015, background): “Further studies considered this issue and explored the impacts of different stages of development on CO2 emissions (Ehrhardt-Martinez et al., 2002; Martinez-Zarzoso and Maruotti, 2011).”
Global biodiversity decline of marine and freshwater fish: A cross-national analysis of economic, demographic, and ecological influences (2008, methodology): “…is one indicator of the modernization of institutions, some scholars suggest that urbanization is a particularly apt indicator of (and, perhaps, force behind) the institutional restructuring that is integral to the modernization process (Ehrhardt-Martinez, 1998; Ehrhardt-Martinez et al., 2002).”
The political-economic causes of change in the ecological footprints of nations, 1991-2001: A quantitative investigation (2007, background): “…ecology known as the " Netherlands fallacy " , which refers to the error in assuming that the overall environmental impacts of the Netherlands' population [and other aZuent, higher-consuming countries] are contained within its national borders (e.g., Ehrlich and Holdren, 1971; York and Rosa, 2003).”
Interaction effects between economic development and forest cover determine deforestation rates (2006, methodology): “This eventually leads to reductions in the rate of environmental degradation as income increases further (Bhattarai and Hammig, 2001; Ehrhardt-Martinez et al., 2002; Dinda, 2004).”
A comparative multivariate analysis of household energy requirements in Australia, Brazil, Denmark, India and Japan (2006, background): “[69], production and abatement technology, fuel mix, political organisation and democracy, relative prices (see Agras and Chapman [64]), trade intensity, government regulation, consumer preferences and attitudes, and information and education.”
Land-Change Science and Political Ecology: Similarities, Differences, and Implications for Sustainability Science (2008, background): “Generally supported by statistical analyses undertaken at cross-national scales (150, 152, 153), the transition and its explanation are much more difficult to demonstrate at local to regional scales.”
Does Democracy Lead to a Better Environment? Deforestation and the Democratic Transition Peak (2011, background): “Martinez et al. (2002) , who examined 1980– 1995deforestationdataforasampleof74less-developedcountriesinAfrica,Asia,andLatin America, found a strong inverted-U EKC with a turning point at GDP per Capita US$ 1,150 in 1980dollars.”
Energy consumption, human well-being and economic development in central and eastern European nations: A cautionary tale of sustainability (2014, background): “Environmental social scientists (Ehrhardt-Martinez et al., 2002) commonly argue that environmental protection and suppressed resource consumption (including energy consumption) are enhanced where both responsiveness and policy capacity are high, and such conditions are more likely in nations with hi”
