Environmental quality in the shadow of geopolitical risk
Climate change mitigation has become an urgent global priority, particularly for OECD countries that face mounting pressure to reconcile sustained economic growth with significant reductions in carbon emissions. Against this backdrop, this study aims to examine the roles of eco-innovation, resource efficiency, and geopolitical risk in shaping environmental quality across OECD nations from 1990 to 2021. To achieve this, the study employed a compre…
Economic Policy Uncertainty, Geopolitical Dynamics, Energy Prices, and Green Bond Returns
This study investigates the asymmetric effects of economic policy uncertainty (EPU), geopolitical risk (GPR), and liquefied natural gas (LNG) prices on green bond returns in China from August 2012 to July 2022.Using quantile-on-quantile regression (QQR), quantile Granger causality, and wavelet coherence analysis, we examine the relationships between these factors and green bond prices across different quantiles.Our findings reveal significant asy…

The rockburst phenomenon is the major source of the high number of casualties and fatalities during the construction of deep underground projects. Rockburst poses a severe hazard to the safety of employees and equipment in subsurface mining operations. It is a hot topic in recent years to examine and overcome rockburst risks for the safe installation of deep urban engineering designs. Therefore, for a cost-effective and safe underground environme…
Investigating the role of economic complexity in sustainable development and environmental sustainability
A productive economic structure, represented by economic complexity (ECP), augments the economic development of nations. However, previous empirical investigations on this topic are confined to understanding the direct effects of economic complexity on environmental quality with equivocal outcomes. Therefore, this study not only probed the effects of ECP on the ecological footprint (EF) but also explored the indirect environmental effects of ECP …
Capital Formation, Green Innovation, Renewable Energy Consumption and Environmental Quality
The world economy continues to witness a steady rise in carbon emissions, which makes it challenging to fulfill the terms of the Paris agreement on reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In this context, countries worldwide enact environmental regulations to curtail environmental pollution to promote sustainable development. However, the importance of environmental regulations has not been fully validated in the previous literature. In addition, the …
Digital Economy and Environmental Quality
Recent developments in attaining carbon peaks and achieving carbon neutrality have had enormous effects on the world economy. Digitalization has been considered a viable way to curtail carbon emissions (CE) and promote sustainable economic development, but scant empirical studies investigate the link between digitalization and CE. In this context, this study constructs the digitalization index using the entropy value method and spatial Markov cha…

Specifying the Domineering Role of Governance in the Long Term Environmental Excellence
Pakistan is facing massive issues such as political instability, weak law enforcement, and corruption, leading to poor implementation of environmental policies. This research investigates the nexus among CO2 emissions, energy consumption, financial development, governance index, and economic growth under the framework of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis. Moreover, the investigation also explores the impact of government effectiven…
Modelling the dynamic linkages between eco-innovation, urbanization, economic growth and ecological footprints for G7 countries
Linking Innovative Human Capital, Economic Growth, and CO2 Emissions
To study the economic and environmental effects of human capital, previous studies measure human capital based on education; however, this approach has many shortcomings because not all educated people are innovative human capital. Hence, this study introduces the concept of innovative human capital by developing a new index that measures human capital based on the number of patents every one million R&D staff full-time equivalent. After this, th…
Modeling the Dynamic Linkage between Tourism Development, Technological Innovation, Urbanization and Environmental Quality
This study investigates the linkage between tourism development, technological innovation, urbanization and environmental degradation across 30 provinces of China. Based on data from 2001 to 2018, the study used an advanced economic methodology for the long-run estimate, the Augmented Mean Group (AMG) estimator, which accounts for heterogeneity in slope parameters and dependencies across countries. The empirical results show that tourism developm…
Digital financial inclusion and economic growth
China’s rapid expansion of digital financial inclusion in the last few years has dramatically augmented the accessibility and affordability of financial services, predominantly serving formerly financially excluded people, and positively contributes to higher economic growth. Despite the importance of digital financial inclusion in promoting economic growth, empirical evidence is relatively thin. Moreover, none of the studies has considered human…
Economic growth, renewable energy consumption, and ecological footprint
Countries enact environmental regulations to achieve sustainable development and ecological sustainability. However, environmental regulations do not guarantee environmental sustainability unless implemented efficiently. Furthermore, political institutions play a key role in the formulation and management of environmental regulations. This research examines the relationship between democracy, environmental regulations, economic growth, and ecolog…
