Greater emphasis that society places on environmental value of forest resources (biodiversity, wildlife conservation, aesthetic value, and carbon sequestration) is a traditional mechanism of causality claimed in the EKC literature.
“the greater emphasis that the society places on environmental value of forest resources (biodiversity, wildlife conservation, aesthetic value, and carbon sequestration, all yet still little merchantable) (Bhattarai and Hammig, 2001)”

Society can avoid potential environmental catastrophes while achieving sustainable growth.
“Thus the society can avoid potential environmental catastrophes while achieving sustainable growth (Torras and Boyce, 1998, Panayotou, 1997, Bhattarai and Hammig, 2001and Bhattarai and Hammig, 2004).”

Institutional factors and macroeconomic policies can reduce the amplitude of the EKC and consequently the environmental price of economic growth.
“In fact, institutional factors and macroeconomic policies can reduce the amplitude of the EKC and consequently the environmental price of economic growth (Culas, 2007, Bhattarai and Hammig, 2001and Bhattarai and Hammig, 2004).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
