| Research Abstract |
I find that an increase in trade openness increases deforestation for non-OECD countries while slowing down deforestation for OECD countries. This implies that, in developing countries where deforestation is already serious, the globalization accelerates deforestation. Concerning water resources, my results show that : firstly, an increase in trade openness decreases the withdrawal of water resources in-2.471% on average ; and secondly, economic growth is possibly restricted by the scarcity of water resources.
