The study looked at how economic growth affects the environment in emerging economies. Instead of just focusing on economic growth, the researchers also considered factors like labor, capital, and human capital. They used the ecological footprint as a measure of environmental impact. The results showed that investing in human capital can help reduce the ecological footprint in these countries.
