Abstract
We evaluate the importance of institutional factors in influencing the emission intensity in 21 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation economies from 2000 to 2019. We show that rising corruption and decreasing governance quality exert positive impacts on pollution in addition to a positive association between oil consumption and pollution. We further note that increasing economic freedom and regulatory standards significantly help reduce pollution. However, the relation between human development and pollution is found to be mixed across our empirical models.
