THE DYNAMICS RELATIONSHIP OF CARBON DIOXIDE, NITROUS DIOXIDE, SULFUR DIOXIDE EMISSIONS AND ECONOMIC GROWTH OF ETHIOPIA

Abstract

The core objective of this study is to asses Dynamics relationship of carbon dioxide (CO2), Nitrous dioxide (NO2), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Emissions and Economic growth of Ethiopia from 1990-2017. Quantitative research approach was used to show the studies that makes use of Statistical analysis. Secondary data were collected from the targeted sector World Bank data (WB) and international monetary fund IMF from 1990-2017 fiscal year. FGLS regression model used to identify the most important dynamic relationship of (CO2), (NO2), (SO2) and Economic growth of Ethiopia from 1990-2017. The finding of the study show that, the annual release of CO2 emissions of Ethiopia from 1990-2017 (consumptions of modern energy like coal, frost, industries, transportations consumption) investigated worth average is 63712.3 m2 ton which is dynamically positive contributed to 0.2% to Ethiopian economic growth. Whereas, the positive and significant relation between economic growth and CO2 indicates, economic growth was inevitably increases carbon dioxide emissions in the country. Similarly, regression result towards annual emissions of SO2 increased to 487.1 M2 ton shows dynamic positive relationship with Ethiopian economic growth show 0.4% worth annually. However, NO2 is the highest which is showing annual increase in Ethiopia during with an emissions in average 4194.2 to 15894.7 metric ton next to carbon dioxide which is portrayed inverse dynamic relationship to Ethiopian economic growth at negative 0.6% per annual. It suggested that Creating partnership between academia and implementing/ regulatory organizations to facilitate evidence-based decisions, Improving the awareness and participation of stakeholders like private sectors, non-government sectors and government sectors to get easy solutions. To minimize CO2 emissions that comes from, economic growth and urbanizations in Ethiopia, cost effective, carbon free, and efficient utilization of renewable energy consumption based on the country comparative advantage that consider alternative use of resources are advisable like: -Hydro and Geothermal.
