Abstract

Apparently, throughout human history, pollution and the economy appear to have been inextricably linked. However, the relationship between environmental harm and economic development is complex, and disciplinary biases have splintered our understanding of it. This study applies Johansen cointegration which indicate that there exists a long-term relationship between air pollutants and economic growth. Multiple regression model indicates that there is a significant relationship between air pollution variables and the economic growth. The vector autoregressive model (Var) indicates a short run relationship between the variables. Then, Vector error correction model was fitted and the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) is supported. More so, the EKC shows that economic growth has both positive and negative significant impact on air pollution. Meanwhile, Granger causality test shows that economic growth has causal effect on air pollution. This indicates that Jordan has reduced CO2 emissions along with other pollutants and thereby contributed to environmental improvement in the country.

约旦空气污染与经济增长动态关系的实证分析
显然,在整个人类历史中,污染和经济似乎有着千丝万缕的联系。然而,环境损害和经济发展之间的关系是复杂的,学科偏见已经分裂了我们对它的理解。本研究采用约翰森协整,表明空气污染物与经济增长之间存在长期关系。多元回归模型表明,大气污染变量与经济增长之间存在显著的相关关系。向量自回归模型(Var)表示变量之间的短期关系。然后拟合向量误差修正模型,支持环境库兹涅茨曲线(EKC)。更重要的是,EKC表明,经济增长对空气污染既有积极的影响,也有消极的影响。同时,格兰杰因果检验表明,经济增长对大气污染具有因果效应。这表明约旦减少了二氧化碳和其他污染物的排放,从而有助于改善该国的环境。
