Abstract
⺠I estimate the relationship between a country's share of elderly population and CO2 emissions from road transport. ⺠In order to alleviate the unit roots issue, the analysis uses a first-order differential equation to estimate models. ⺠There is a quadratic relationship between CO2 emissions per capita and the share of elderly. ⺠The level of the turning point in terms of the share of elderly in OECD European countries and Japan is around 16 percent.
