• Economic Growth and Climate Change: A Cross-National Analysis of Territorial and Consumption-Based Carbon Emissions in High-Income Countries (2014, background): “If past performance is relevant for future outcomes, our results, along with numerous other studies of the economy/emissions relationship, cast doubt on this approach [3,14,15,30].”
• Impact of population, age structure, and urbanization on carbon emissions/energy consumption: evidence from macro-level, cross-country analyses (2013, neutral): “Population growth To my knowledge population growth’s impact on the level of national carbon emissions has not been explicitly explored (a conclusion also reached in another review by Rosa and Dietz 2012).”
• Mapping the carbon footprint of EU regions (2017, background): “Such omitted factors include institutions (e.g. demographic institutions of governance leading to greater environmental protection), social psychology and culture (e.g. values, beliefs, norms and world-views) (Rosa and Dietz 2012).”
• Income Inequality and Carbon Emissions in the United States: A State-level Analysis, 1997–2012 (2017, background): “…size of a state's manufacturing sector and its level of fossil-fuel production could increase overall statelevel emissions, and both have been found in past comparative-international research to be significant predictors of national-level emissions (Dunlap and Brulle, 2015; Rosa and Dietz, 2012).”
• Transitions in pathways of human development and carbon emissions (2013, methodology): “Guided by the discussion in Rosa and Dietz (2012), we consider six drivers of national carbon emissions identified in the literature (table 1).”
