The focus of the green growth concept is on reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, the efficient use of natural resources and the opportunities for investment and innovation in environmental services. However, green growth not only affects the quality of growth, but also the overall production process (such as low carbon economy). The purpose of the paper is to examine the interrelationship in Bulgaria between ICT indicators and environmental indicators for the period 1990-2014 (e.g. emissions, renewable energy and others) using the Granger causality test for assessing whether Bulgaria has developed green growth strategies to achieve sustainable performance in different sectors of the economy.

Abstract
The focus of the green growth concept is on reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, the efficient use of natural resources and the opportunities for investment and innovation in environmental services. However, green growth not only affects the quality of growth, but also the overall production process (such as low carbon economy). The purpose of the paper is to examine the interrelationship in Bulgaria between ICT indicators and environmental indicators for the period 1990-2014 (e.g. emissions, renewable energy and others) using the Granger causality test for assessing whether Bulgaria has developed green growth strategies to achieve sustainable performance in different sectors of the economy.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
