- Abstract
Under the background of the rapid development of trade in services, the double effects of trade in services on environmental quality are studied. This paper constructs the fixed effect panel models of the environmental equation and the economic growth equation, collects the cross-national panel data of 129 countries from 1995 to 2018, uses two-stage regression methods, empirically tests the double environmental effects of trade in services. The results show that the direct effect of trade in services on environmental quality is positive, the indirect effect is negative, and the overall effect of trade in services on environmental quality is positive. In countries with different income levels, the impact of trade in services on the environment is heterogeneous. The total effects of trade in services and services exports trade on environmental pollution are negative in low-income countries, lower middle-income countries and high-income countries, and positive in upper middle-income countries. The total effects of services imports trade on environmental pollution are negative in low-income countries, upper middle-income countries and high-income countries, and positive in lower middle-income countries.
