摘要
Carbon dioxide emissions, the most significant greenhouse gas, are growing at more rapid rates in developing economies relative to advanced economies. This paper estimates the effects of the growth of GDP, changes in industrial structure, fuel mixes and energy efficiency on the carbon dioxide emissions of nine developing countries using a decomposition model. Policy implications for reducing emissions, in the light of the findings, are discussed. Copyright (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
