Economic dynamics with renewable resources and pollution

This article considers a two-sector economy with externalities. In particular,the analysis involves an industrial sector whose production activities have negative effects on the regeneration of a natural resource in the other sector. Without the usual convexity or the super-modularity structure, we prove that the economy evolves to increase the \textit{net gain of stock}, and establish the conditions ensuring the convergence of the economy in the long run.
