Results from time-series analyses reveal that an inverted U-shaped EKC hypothesis is confirmed for Cyprus with and without tourism development. Tourism also exerts positively significant and long-term effects on the levels of carbon emissions, revealing that growth in the tourism sector causes degradation in the environment.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessTourismEKCEnergy consumptionSmall islandCyprusEstimating the effects of tourism growth on emission pollutants: empirical evidence from a small island, CyprusArticle3974Q139113WOS:000516444600001Q2
