Beyond the Environmental Kuznets Curve in Africa: Evidence from Panel Cointegration (2014, background): “Some types of economic structure have been emphasized by some studies such as Ravallion et al. (2000), who pointed out that development processes that are essentially resource-driven will depend on how well a society manages its resources in order to avoid or mitigate pollution.”
Income inequality and carbon dioxide emissions: The case of Chinese urban households (2012, positive): “By including indirect emissions into the analysis, our results point to the opposite conclusion of Ravallion et al. (2000) with regard to the impact of income re-distribution on aggregate emissions.”
Wealth Inequality and Carbon Emissions in High-income Countries (2017, background): “In contrast, another effect is that higher income inequality may reduce emissions, because the marginal propensity to emit (and consume) declines with income (Heerink et al. 2001; Ravallion et al. 2000).”
The inequality-emissions nexus in the context of trade and development: A quantile regression approach (2017, methodology): “On the opposite, Ravallion et al. (2000) and Heerink et al. (2001) show that higher inequality across households can reduce aggregate environmental degradation.”
The Trade-off Between Income Inequality and Carbon Dioxide Emissions (2017, methodology): “In particular, Ravallion et al. (2000) ignore heterogeneity, but allow for a cubic income term.”
