Economic growth and the environment

By Grossman and Krueger.

In this paper, Grossman and Krueger trace out the environmental Kuznets curves for pollutants in cities. They study atmospheric and water pollutants. In general, they find that there is a Kuznets relationship, with pollution peaking around the GDP of Mexico or Malaysia.

There conclusions are in line with Arrow et al; Grossman and Krueger only study local pollutants that have local effects.
