Popis: Treball Final de Grau en Economia. Codi: EC1049. Curs acadèmic: 2019-2020 In this work we have qualitatively analyzed those investigations who take into account the relationship between economic growth and CO2 emissions. This relationship is called Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC). An exhaustive review has been carried out on those articles that use this gas in order to know whether there really is a consensus in the inverted U shape between the different articles for each country analyzed, and therefore, the country with that consensus will have a single turning point with a maximum. To achieve this goal, a discussion has been held on these articles to see if the limitations of this model are really key to be able to achieve this agreement between different articles.
