Abstrakt

Jednymi z celów zrównoważonego rozwoju jest ograniczenie degradacji środowiska i promowanie zrównoważonego środowiska. Jednym z istotnych czynników promujących zrównoważone środowisko jest poziom demokracji w kraju. W niniejszym badaniu zbadano wpływ demokracji na ślad ekologiczny (EF) na mieszkańca w 68 krajach rozwijających się w latach 1990–2018. W tym celu korzystamy z estymatorów wykonalnych uogólnionych najmniejszych kwadratów (FGLS) i skorygowanych błędów standardowych metodą panelową (PCSE). Wyniki empiryczne pokazują, że istnieje pozytywny związek pomiędzy demokracją a EF. Innymi słowy, wzrost demokracji zwiększa degradację środowiska w krajach rozwijających się. Poza tym ustalenia pokazują również, że podczas gdy wzrost PKB na mieszkańca zwiększa EF, wzrost zużycia energii odnawialnej zmniejsza EF. Nasze ustalenia pokazują, że demokracja ma znaczenie dla zrównoważenia środowiskowego w krajach rozwijających się. Dlatego też rządy i decydenci powinni wziąć pod uwagę demokrację przy formułowaniu polityk środowiskowych.
