摘要

本研究探讨了气候政策不确定性对环境退化的影响,并研究了民主在这一关系中的调节作用。利用 1996-2021 年间 126 个经济体的年度数据,并采用动态最小二乘法和完全修正的普通最小二乘法模型,分析表明气候政策不确定性与环境退化之间存在显著的负相关关系。研究结果表明,气候政策的不确定性越高,环境退化的程度就越低,这表明气候政策的不确定性可以推动谨慎和具有生态意识的行为。此外,研究还发现民主会放大这种负相关关系,这意味着民主环境会提高气候政策在减少环境退化方面的有效性,而这要归功于民主制度所固有的更高透明度、问责制、公众参与和政策稳定性。这项研究强调了政治和经济制度如何在气候变化中影响环境结果,从而为政策制定者提供了宝贵的现实意义。

Climate policy uncertainty and environmental degradation: Does democracy moderate this relationship?
This study investigates the impact of climate policy uncertainty on environmental degradation and examines the moderating role of democracy in this relationship. Utilizing annual data from 126 economies spanning the years 1996–2021, and employing dynamic least squares and fully modified ordinary least squares models, the analysis reveals a significant negative relationship between climate policy uncertainty and environmental degradation. The findings indicate that higher uncertainty in climate policies is associated with reduced environmental degradation, suggesting that uncertainty in climate policies can drive cautious and ecologically conscious behaviors. Additionally, the study finds that democracy amplifies this negative relationship, implying that democratic environments enhance the effectiveness of climate policies in reducing environmental degradation which is attributed to greater transparency, accountability, public participation, and policy stability inherent in democratic systems. The study offers valuable practical implications for policymakers by highlighting how political and economic systems can influence environmental outcomes amid climate change.
