Abstract

There has been established in the article the correlation and regression relationship between the factors of the country’s development and the level of environmental safety on the basis of identifying the patterns of certain factors sets influencing the volume of harmful emissions into the atmosphere. On the basis of modeling, there has been carried out the analysis of individual groups of factors influencing the volumes of harmful emissions in the countries selected for the study. The nature and degree of influence of the selected factors on the resulting indicators (volumes of harmful emissions) have been determined. It has been found that the number of these factors is significantly higher in France than in Ukraine. This is due to both the political and economic situation in the country. The level of energy efficient technologies implementation and environmental restructuring of business entities are no less significant. The ranking of factors has been carried out based on the value of the correlation coefficient within a separate group and each country. There are also highlighted differences in the research results and their reasons.

Highlights

  • In today's world, among the dominant problems, there are environmental ones associated with climate change as they threaten the further development of mankind

  • Natural resources were used as a control variable that showed the relationship between revenues and emissions in the EU-5 countries [2]

  • - in the Paris Agreement, any sanctions for greenhouse emissions were canceled and each country determined for itself the amount of emission reductions

Summary

Introduction

In today's world, among the dominant problems, there are environmental ones associated with climate change as they threaten the further development of mankind. The countries participating in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (1992) have assumed international obligations defined in the Kyoto Protocol (1997) and the Paris Agreement (2015) regarding the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. This necessitates states with different levels of development to form and implement an effective environmental policy, which will reduce anthropogenic influence and stimulate the development of a "green" economy. To analyze the relationship between emissions, natural resources, revenues and renewable energy in the BRICS countries, there has been applied the AMG method [1].
