臺灣六都環保支出及環保回收行為對於廢棄物排放之影響分析

The Impact of Environmental Protection Expenditures and Recycling Behaviors on Waste Emissions in Taiwan's Six Major Cities

本研究之目的在於驗證臺灣六大都市，環境保護支出、環保回收行為對於廢棄物排放的影響。實證結果發現：長期而言，環保回收行為及人口數，對於廢棄物排放的影響並不顯著；但是，營利事業營業額以及環保支出，皆為顯著，同時，當營利事業營業額每增加1%，將使得廢棄物排放增加0.84%；同時，當環保支出每增加1%，將使得廢棄物排放減少0.66%。

This study aimed to examine the impact of environmental protection spending and recycling practices on waste emissions in six major Taiwanese cities. The empirical results found that, in the long run, recycling practices and population did not significantly affect waste emissions. However, both business sales and environmental protection spending were significant. Furthermore, a 1% increase in business sales was associated with a 0.84% increase in waste emissions, while a 1% increase in environmental protection spending was associated with a 0.66% decrease in waste emissions.
