Resumo

This paper explores the link between environmental policy and
economic growth by employing an extension of the AK Growth Model. We
include a state equation for renewable natural resources. We
assume that the change in environmental regulations induces
costs and that economic agents also derive some utility from
capital stock accumulation vis-a-vis the environment.
Using the Hopf bifurcation theorem, we show that cyclical
environmental policy strategies are optimal, providing
theoretical support for the Environmental Kuznets Curve.
