Abstract

This study aims to investigate the relationship between carbon emission per capita, coal consumption per capita, financial development, income per capita and the square of income per capita in Mexico covering the period from 1971 to 2015 and using autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach, bounds testing, Bayer-Hanck cointegration testing, error correction model and Hatemi-J Asymmetric causality model. The bounds and Bayer-Hanck tests for cointegration indicates that the analyzed variables are cointegrated. ARDL test result revealed that there is a one-way and statistically significant relationship moving from coal consumption per capita, financial development and income per capita to carbon emission per capita in the long-run. The negative impact of financial development on carbon emissions shows that as financial development in Mexico increases, environmental pollution decreases. This inverted U-shaped relationship, which is statistically significant between income per capita and carbon emissions per capita, supports the Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis. Applying conservative policies may cause a decrease in economic growth because the increase in coal consumption increases carbon emissions. Therefore, the efficient use of energy resources should be a primary goal of policy makers.

Özet

Bu çalışma; Meksika’da 1971-2015 döneminde otoregresif gecikmesi dağıtılmış model (ARDL), sınır testi, Bayer-Hanck eşbütünleşme testi, hata düzeltme modeli ve Hatemi-J asimetrik nedensellik yöntemi yardımıyla kişi başına düşen karbon salımı, kişi başına düşen kömür tüketimi, finansal gelişim, kişi başına düşen gayri safi yurtiçi hasıla ve kişi başına düşen gayri safi yurtiçi hasılanın karesi arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Sınır ve Bayer-Hanck testleri sonucunda seriler arasında uzun dönemde eşbütünleşme ilişkisi olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Yapılan ARDL testi sonucunda uzun dönemde kişi başına düşen kömür tüketimi, finansal gelişim ve kişi başına düşen gayri safi yurtiçi hasıladan kişi başına düşen karbon salımına doğru tek yönlü ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişkiye ulaşılmıştır. Finansal gelişimin karbon salımını negatif olarak etkilemesi, Meksika’da finansal gelişim arttıkça çevre kirliliğinin azaldığını göstermektedir. Kişi başına düşen gayri safi yurtiçi hasıla ile karbon salımı arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı tespit edilen ters U şeklindeki bu ilişki, Çevresel Kuznets Eğrisi hipotezini destekler niteliktedir. Kömür tüketiminde artış karbon salımını arttırdığı için korumacı politikalar uygulanması ekonomik büyümede azalışa sebep olabilir. Bu yüzden enerji kaynaklarının verimli kullanılması politika yapıcıların öncelikle hedefleri arasında yer almalıdır.
