This paper conducts an analysis about the relationship between carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and green innovations in European countries. The first chapter provides an overview of the current condition of environmental sustainability in the EU, with a focus on the issue of CO2 emissions and the European strategies put in place to reduce them. The second chapter, on the other hand, outlines the concept of "green innovation" and lays out its most relevant elements. Some examples of green innovation funded by the European Union are brought up. The third chapter conducts an analysis about the relationship between CO2 emissions and green innovations in different European countries. First, an examination of the existing literature is made. Then, a regression analysis between the two variables is implemented, accompanied by the introduction of some control variables in order to enrich the analysis model. Through a statistical model, an attempt will be made to capture the role of CO2 emissions in spurring the development of green innovations.
Il presente elaborato conduce un'analisi circa la relazione esistente tra le emissioni di anidride carbonica (CO2) e le innovazioni green nei paesi europei. Il primo capitolo offre una panoramica della condizione corrente della sostenibilità ambientale nell'UE, con una focalizzazione sulla tematica delle emissioni di CO2 e sulle strategie europee messe in atto per ridurle. Il secondo capitolo, invece, delinea il concetto di "innovazione green" e ne espone gli elementi di maggiore rilevanza. Vengono portati alcuni esempi di innovazione green finanziati dall’Unione Europea. Il terzo capitolo condotta un'analisi circa la relazione tra le emissioni di CO2 e le innovazioni green nei diversi paesi europee. In primo luogo, si procede a una disamina della letteratura esistente. Successivamente, si attua un'analisi di regressione tra le due variabili, accompagnata dall'introduzione di alcune variabili di controllo allo scopo di arricchire il modello di analisi. Attraverso un modello statistico si cercherà di cogliere il ruolo delle emissioni di CO2 nello spronare lo sviluppo di innovazioni green.

Abstract
This paper conducts an analysis about the relationship between carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and green innovations in European countries. The first chapter provides an overview of the current condition of environmental sustainability in the EU, with a focus on the issue of CO2 emissions and the European strategies put in place to reduce them. The second chapter, on the other hand, outlines the concept of "green innovation" and lays out its most relevant elements. Some examples of green innovation funded by the European Union are brought up. The third chapter conducts an analysis about the relationship between CO2 emissions and green innovations in different European countries. First, an examination of the existing literature is made. Then, a regression analysis between the two variables is implemented, accompanied by the introduction of some control variables in order to enrich the analysis model. Through a statistical model, an attempt will be made to capture the role of CO2 emissions in spurring the development of green innovations.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
