Abstract
This paper investigates the interdependence between
environmental degradation (CO2 emissions) and economic growth
(GDP per capita) in nine SEE countries over the period 1992 – 2016.
The results of Granger causality testing indicate that in the short run
there is a positive bidirectional causal relationship between CO2
emissions and GDP per capita, but in the long run, there is causality
running just from GDP per capita to CO2 emissions, with the 2.0279%
speed of adjustment. In pursuit of adequate policy measures, SEE
countries need to work on inclusion of non-EU countries into European
Union's Emissions Trading Scheme, further developing carbon taxation
policies and using renewable energy sources on a larger scale.
