Data for: Replication of Strazicich and List (2003): Are CO2 Emission Levels Converging among Industrial Countries?

This document includes dataset and codes used in the paper "Replication of Strazicich and List (2003): Are CO2 Emission Levels Converging among Industrial Countries?"

Data file includes three sheets

1-) narrow_and_wide_crosssection is used to generate cross sectional regression results reported in table 1 and 3.
2-) narrow_timeseries is used to produce time series results reported in table 2.
3-) wide_timeseries is used to generate time series results reported in table 4.

There are three different stata command text files.

1-) stata_crosssection is for empirical results reported in table 1 and 3.
2-) stata_timeseries_narrow is for empirical results reported in table 2.
3-) stata_timeseries_wide is for empirical results reported in table 4.

The variables used in cross sectional regression are as follows
