    Agricultural Energy Consumption-Economic Growth Relationship in Turkish Economy: A Hidden Cointegration Analysis
    (Univ Namik Kemal, 2023) Cetin, Murat; Kapcak, Servet; Can, Aycan
    According to energy economists, the energy factor underlies economic growth and development. In this approach, energy is accepted as an indispensable production factor in the production of all goods and services. In addition, it is known that agricultural activities are at the forefront at the beginning of development, and a structural transformation has taken place from agriculture to industry and from the industrial sector to the service sector. However, due to the developments in the world economy in recent years and the fact that the agricultural sector plays a key role in the country, many countries attach special importance to the development of this sector. The development of the agricultural sector brings the need to increase the amount of energy used by this sector. The increase in energy costs day by day puts the agriculture sector in a difficult situation, and how the increasing energy consumption will affect the economic growth of the country emerges as a research topic. The literature investigating the relationship between energy consumption and economic growth rarely addresses this issue on a sectoral basis. In this context; It is important whether energy consumption in the agricultural sector can affect economic growth. This study aims to investigate the relationship between agricultural energy consumption and economic growth for the Turkish economy in the period of 1990-2018. The results of the ADF and PP unit root tests used for the stationarity analysis of the variables reveal that the variables become stationary at the first difference. The long-term relationship between the variables is investigated using the Hatemi J-Irandoust hidden cointegration test, which is one of the new generation tests. The coefficients of the variables and the causality relationship are examined with the FMOLS technique and the hidden error correction model, respectively. The findings show the existence of a cointegration between the + component of agricultural energy consumption and the + component of economic growth. The findings also indicate the existence of a positive relationship between the + component of agricultural energy consumption and the + component of economic growth. Finally, there is a unidirectional causality running from the + component of economic growth to + component of agricultural energy consumption. These results show that agricultural energy consumption has an impact on Turkey's economic growth. The study can offer some policy recommendations related to the agricultural sector for the growth of the Turkish economy.

    Analysis of the relationship between tourism, green technological innovation and environmental quality in the top 15 most visited countries: evidence from method of moments quantile regression
    (Springer, 2024) Avci, Pinar; Sarigul, Sevgi Sumerli; Karataser, Busra; Cetin, Murat; Aslan, Alper
    Global warming, climate change and environmental pollution are considered among the important developments that threaten all world economies. In this context, the transition to a zero-emission economy remains one of the environmental sustainability goals of policymakers. The literature investigating the tourism-environmental pollution relationship has limited emphasis on the role of green technological innovation. Therefore, this study explores the effect of tourism and green technological innovation on CO2 emissions in top 15 most visited countries during the period of 1995-2019. Renewable energy consumption, financial development and economic growth are integrated into the CO2 emissions equation as control variables. The cointegration tests verify the existence of a cointegration between variables. The long-run estimaters reveal that tourism, green technological innovation and renewable energy consumption serve to improve environmental quality by reducing CO2 emissions. Contrary to these findings, financial development and economic growth play a role in the increase of CO2 emissions implying a deterioration in environmental quality. The bootstrap causality analysis points to a bidirectional causality between tourism and CO2 emissions and between green technological innovation and CO2 emissions. The findings will make important contributions to policy makers in these countries in meeting their CO2 emissions reduction targets. Graphical AbstractThe long-run findings

    Does globalization mitigate environmental degradation in selected emerging economies? assessment of the role of financial development, economic growth, renewable energy consumption and urbanization
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2023) Cetin, Murat; Sariguel, Sevgi Sumerli; Topcu, Betul Altay; Alvarado, Rafael; Karataser, Buesra
    While the acceleration of globalization in newly developing (emerging) economies contributes positively to economic developments on the one hand, it is a research topic that can have an impact on environmental pollution on the other hand. Therefore, this study analyzes the impact of globalization on environmental pollution for 14 emerging economies in the 1991-2018 period by including economic growth, financial development, renewable energy consumption, and urbanization in the ecological footprint model. In addition to the AMG forecaster, Driscoll-Kraay, PCSE, and FGLS estimation techniques are used for long-term forecasting. Causal linkages among variables are analyzed by the Dumitrescu-Hurlin panel bootstrap causality test. The findings show that the series are cointegrated, that is, a long-term relationship between the variables. In the long term, globalization and renewable energy consumption reduce environmental pollution, while economic growth and financial development play a role in encouraging environmental pollution. Causality analysis enumerates a causality from economic growth and financial development to environmental pollution, as well as a two-way causality between globalization and environmental pollution and renewable energy consumption and environmental pollution. Empirical findings can offer important implications for policies that will reduce environmental pollution in these countries.

    Nexus between technological innovation and environmental pollution in selected OECD countries
    (Wiley, 2024) Cetin, Murat; Ozturk, Ilhan; Sarigul, Sevgi Sumerli; Murshed, Muntasir; Kilavuz, Emine
    Addressing environmental pollution is fundamental to establishing sustainable development across the globe. While navigating the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it is of critical relevance for economies worldwide to come up with innovative measures that can withstand the factors driving environmental pollution. On that note, this study explores the technological innovation-environmental pollution linkages in the context of 10 members of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) using data spanning from 1994 to 2018. Notably, considering ecological footprints as the environmental proxy, the analysis controls for the corresponding levels of economic growth, financial development, and renewable energy consumption in the concerned countries. In addition, the long-term estimates are investigated using Augmented Mean Group, Common Correlation Effects Mean Group, Fully Modified Ordinary Least Square, and Dynamic Ordinary Least Square techniques while the causality relationship is determined by Dumitrescu-Hurlin panel bootstrapped causality test. The results establish the long-term cointegrating linkages among the variables considered. It is also observed that economic growth increases the ecological footprint level, while technological innovation, renewable energy consumption, and financial development reduce it. Moreover, the results reveal that technological innovation and ecological footprint causally influence each other, while there are one-way causalities moving from economic growth and financial development to ecological footprint. Furthermore, a two-way causality concerning renewable energy consumption and ecological footprint is also detected. Considering these results, it is pertinent for the selected OECD countries to improve energy efficiency rates, scale investment for developing the renewable energy sector, and execute policies that support investments in initiatives concerning low-carbon technological development. Additionally, these countries should look to implement policies that are compatible with the objectives of establishing green growth so that low-emission development can take place to tackle climate change-related problems.
