Flow Versus Stock Pollution
The Neglect of Future Damages

Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to find a possible explanation for the empirical fin
ding that the pollution income relationship (PIR) for flow pollutants is an environmental
Kuznets curve (EKC), i.e. inverted U shaped, but that the PIR for stock pollutants is
monotonically rising. We analyse an overlapping generations model with two pollutants:
The flow pollutant causes immediate damages, but the stock pollutant harms the environ
ment only in the future. Hence, a succession of myopic governments lets stock pollution
grow with income. In contrast, the flow pollutant follows an EKC whose downturn might
be caused by the neglect of future damages and by ever rising stock pollution: Without
the stock pollutant the PIR for the flow pollutant can increase monotonically. We also
find that the turning point of the EKC for the flow pollutant lies at lower levels of income
and of flow pollution if stock pollution is high and harmful.
(JEL: D62, 041, Q20)
Keywords: environmental Kuznets curve, flow and stock pollution, myopia, economic
growth, abatement.
