dc.description.abstractLittle is currently known about how policy choices that seek to bridge the gap between low production capacity and growing consumption demands in developing economies impact the environment. To address this research gap, a quantile-based model is used to examine the impact of three policy-relevant variables on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions: international remittance infows, trade liberalization, and renewable energy consumption. Territorial-based CO2 emissions are used to explain the environmental efects of the variables when emissions are calculated solely on the basis of domestic production capacity. To consider if trade-induced consumption demands provide a better measure for assessing the environmental efects of the variable, consumption-based CO2 emissions are used. The study focused on SubSaharan African countries with zero or net positive CO2 emissions from trade. The results show, among other things, that remittances and trade liberalization increase CO2 emissions irrespective of the accounting method. Trade, in particular, has a stronger efect through import-induced consumption activities. However, the efect is statistically insignifcant for the lower quantile countries and statistically signifcant for the middle and upper quantile countries. Harnessing the potential of renewable energy to reduce CO2 emissions should thus be a priority for policymakers in net-importing developing economies if production and consumption activities are to be created in less carbon-intensive ways.en_US
