This paper studies the relationship between economic globalization and environmental footprint. It hypothesizes that economic globalization will increase the negative environmental impact. The study covers theories for and against this argument, focusing especially on the validity of an environmental Kuznets curve, market-based solutions, and other suggested policies.

The study concludes by discussing these results and proposing future steps.

Interestingly, my findings suggest that women’s participation in national legislatures has a positive and statistically …
