Corruption and Environmental Protection in Sub-Saharan African Countries

Abstract

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are a growing concern for policy makers and environmental advocates. The objective of the article is to determine the role of governance in environmental decarbonization based on the environmental Kuznets curve from a panel of 21 SSA countries over the period from 1996 to 2019. The Driscoll-Kraay estimator is used to estimate the long-term relationship and the dynamic ordinary least squares (DOLS) estimator to test the robustness. The results show the non-existence of an environmental Kuznets curve and the negative influence of corruption on CO2 emissions. These results suggest strengthening the control of corruption to ensure effective environmental decarbonization policies.
