日本語
スリランカを対象に、観光・エネルギー消費・FDI・GDPとCO2排出の関係を1990〜2022年でARDLモデルにより分析。エネルギー消費はCO2排出を増加させる一方、観光とFDIは長期的に排出削減と関連し、再生可能エネルギーとグリーン観光の推進を提言している。
English
This study uses ARDL bounds testing on Sri Lanka data (1990–2022) to show that energy consumption raises CO2 emissions, while tourism arrivals and FDI are associated with lower emissions in the long run. It calls for renewable energy, green tourism, and eco-friendly investment policies.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本のGX文脈では、途上国の観光依存型経済における排出構造を示す事例として、日本のODAや民間投資のグリーン化議論に示唆を与える。ただし、日本固有の政策連動は薄い。
In the global GX context
For global readers, this provides empirical evidence on the tourism–energy–emission nexus in a developing economy, relevant for sustainable tourism policy and climate finance discussions. It adds to the EKC literature with a Sri Lankan case.

🔬研究者:ARDLとECMによる観光・FDI・CO2の長期的関係の実証結果が参考になる。
🏛政策担当者:再生可能エネルギーとグリーン観光政策の根拠となる実証データを提供している。
📄 Abstract（原文）
Environmental degradation and climate change have become major challenges for developing economies due to rapid economic activities, increasing energy demand, and tourism expansion. In Sri Lanka, tourism and energy consumption play an important role in economic growth while also contributing to carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions. This research examines the relationship among Energy Consumption, Tourism Arrivals, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and CO₂ emissions during the period from 1990 to 2022. The study applies the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) bounds testing approach to identify both short-run and long-run relationships among the variables. The Error Correction Model (ECM) is also used to measure the speed of adjustment toward long-run equilibrium. The findings indicate that energy consumption has a significant positive impact on CO₂ emissions, confirming that heavy dependence on fossil fuels increases environmental degradation. In contrast, tourism arrivals and foreign direct investment demonstrate negative long-run relationships with CO₂ emissions, implying that sustainable tourism development and environmentally friendly investments can support environmental improvement. GDP shows an insignificant relationship with CO₂ emissions in the long run, providing limited evidence for the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis. The results highlight the importance of promoting renewable energy, green tourism practices, and eco-friendly investment policies to achieve sustainable economic growth while reducing environmental risks in Sri Lanka.
