Abstract

This paper is based on the work of Aghion and Howitt. We have integrated some elements including the tax on the dirty production, varieties production function and the isoelastic utility function. Furthermore, we analyze how the growth theory integrates the environmental dimension. We find that, the tax on the dirty production has no effect on the growth rate of consumption and the rate at which the flow of the natural resource has to deduce.
