Özet

Çevre kirliliği ile mücadelede uluslararası arenada ön plana çıkan teorik ve ampirik araştırmaların başında gelmeye devam etmektedir. OECD ülkelerinin büyük bir kısmı çevre kirliliği göstergelerinde özellikle de ekolojik ayak izi verilerinde üst sıralarda yer alan ülkeler arasında gözükmektedir. Bu nedenle bu çalışmanın temel amacı seçilmiş OECD ülkelerinde 1994-2020 döneminde çevre kirliliğinin temel ölçütlerinden biri olan ekolojik ayak izinin belirleyicilerini ampirik olarak incelemektir. Panel veri tekniklerinden yeni yaklaşımların uygulandığı bu çalışma seriler arasında bir eşbütünleşmeyi ortaya çıkarmaktadır. CCE-MG tahminleri uzun dönemde ekonomik büyüme ve sermaye oluşumunun ekolojik ayak izini yükselterek çevre kirliliğini desteklediğini gösterir. Diğer taraftan enerji verimliliği ve yeşil büyüme ekolojik ayak izini düşürmekte dolayısıyla çevresel bozulmayı engellemektedir. Çalışmanın CCE-MG tahminleri AMG tahminleri ile de desteklenmektedir. Bu sonuçlar dikkate alındığında; politika yapıcıları enerji verimliliği ve yeşil büyüme uygulamalarını destekleyici önlemler almalı diğer taraftan da ekonomik büyüme ve sermaye oluşumunun çevre üzerindeki olumsuz etkilerini minimize edici uygulamalara ağırlık vermelidirler.

Abstract

Fighting against environmental pollution continues to be one of the leading theoretical and empirical researches in the international arena. Most OECD countries appear to be among the top countries in environmental pollution indicators, especially in ecological footprint data. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to empirically examine the determinants of the ecological footprint, one of the basic measures of environmental pollution in selected OECD countries in the period 1994-2020. This study, in which new approaches from panel data techniques are applied, reveals a cointegration between the series. CCE-MG estimates show that in the long run, economic growth and capital formation promote environmental pollution by increasing the ecological footprint. On the other hand, energy productivity and green growth reduce the ecological footprint, thus preventing environmental degradation. The study's CCE-MG estimates are also supported by AMG estimates. Considering these results; Policy makers should take measures to support energy productivity and green growth practices, and on the other hand, they should focus on practices that minimize the negative effects of economic growth and capital formation on the environment.
