Más allá de la Curva Ambiental de Kuznets: comprensión de los determinantes de la degradación ambiental en México

Abstract

Este estudio estima los factores determinantes de los niveles de emisión de dióxido de azufre (SO2) utilizando modelos estructurales con datos de panel a nivel estatal en México. El modelo se calcula para las emisiones de SO2 de diferentes fuentes de contaminación, en concreto, fuentes de la industria, pequeñas empresas y fuentes que representan las emisiones de los automóviles. Los factores socioeconómicos considerados en los modelos estructurales son: la composición de la economía, la calidad de las instituciones, la desigualdad de los ingresos, la apertura comercial, la heterogeneidad geográfica, la tendencia del tiempo y el ingreso per cápita. Se encontró evidencia de que los factores socioeconómicos tuvieran impactos distintos sobre las emisiones de SO2 en sus diferentes fuentes. Además, se encuentra evidencia a favor de la hipótesis del “refugio para la contaminación”, así como también una relación negativa de la desigualdad de los ingresos sobre las emisiones de SO2 emitidas por automóviles, y las relaciones persistentes de la relación de U invertida entre los ingresos y los niveles de emisión de SO2 después de controlar otros factores socioeconómicos.
