16This paper deepens the consumption-based line of inquiry on the Environmental
Kuznets Curve (EKC) question by means of a large panel dataset of world countries
covering the 1961–2003 period. As indicator of environmental pressure, we employ
ecological footprint estimates. The ecological footprint is a consumption-based
measure, since it attributes the environmental impact of a given good or service to the final consumer, independently of where the supplying area is located. We measure income by means of per capita GDP expressed both in absolute and in purchasing
power parity (PPP) terms. None of the estimated models show evidence of a
de-linking between economic growth and environmental pressure for high levels of
income. Hence, as a whole, our analysis does not support the EKC hypothesis.
