Advancing sustainability in China by uncovering the role of eco-innovation, sustainable urbanization and financial development: Evidence from novel wavelet approaches
The Chinese government has faced the challenge of striking a balance between environmental sustainability and economic growth. Nevertheless, it has been recognized that sustainable development is intricately linked with economic, financial, and technological factors. Recently, the Climate Action Tracker has labeled China’s sustainability actions and policies as ‘Highly Insufficient’; thus, it is imperative to explore innovative sustainability dri…
Unlocking Sustainable Prosperity: A Systems Approach to Green Practices, Energy Security, and Digital Transformation
To achieve sustainability and ecological targets, economies worldwide are now paying attention to the role of green production practices (GPP). Against this backdrop, this study aims to analyze the nexus between green practices and various important factors associated with economic growth (ECG). In this regard, the role of digitization, natural resources, and renewable energy is examined for the United States of America (USA) from 1991 to 2021. F…
Impact of geopolitical risk and economic globalization on Turkey's environmental sustainability using the novel quantile-on-quantile KRLS method

Tech collaboration & digital inclusion: Reshaping global trade in the age of climate policy
The unrestrained carbon emissions emanating from international trade are ominously threatening environmental quality; however, this pressing issue remains understudied, underscoring the imperative for robust investigation and informed policy responses. In response to this imperative, the current study delves into the impact of international technological collaboration (IC) and digital inclusion (DIGI) on U.S. trade-embodied emissions. The study f…
Green finance and sustainability in China: Myth or reality
The role of green finance in reducing CO2 emissions: An empirical analysis
This study examines the relationship between green finance and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the top ten economies that support green finance (Canada, Denmark, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States). This study uses quantile on quantile regression (QQR), introduced by Sim and Zhou (2015), to examine the dependence structure between different quantiles of green finance and CO2 emi…
Impact of environmental quality, real exchange rate and institutional performance on tourism receipts in East-Asia and Pacific region
This study attempts to explore the impact of environmental quality, real exchange rate and institutional performance on tourism receipts in East-Asia and Pacific region. A new methodology dynamic common correlated effects (DCCE) is applied to deal with the issue of cross-sectional dependence (CSD) among cross-sectional units. This approach can calculate DCCE by recognizing the heterogeneous slopes and assuming that the variables can be represente…
Green transformational leadership and environmental performance in small and medium enterprises
This study examines the nexus between green transformational leadership (GTL) and environmental performance (EP), considering the mediating role of green human resource management (GHRM) and green innovation (GI). Besides, we also find the moderating effects of environmental values (EV) between GTL and EP. This study collected data from 110 respondents using a survey questionnaire from small and medium enterprises and employed structural equation…
Sectoral CO 2 emissions in China: Asymmetric and time-varying analysis
Today, China is the second-largest, fastest-growing economy in the world. This study analyzes asymmetric and time-varying impact of world energy prices (including world energy prices index, world coal prices, world crude oil prices and world natural gas prices) on China’s CO2 emissions. We used a non-linear ARDL (NARDL) model and wavelet analysis using monthly data from 1992 to 2017. The results based on the NARDL estimate show that world energy …
Unraveling the Nexuses of Tourism, Terrorism, and Well-Being: Evidence from Pakistan
This study attempts to highlight the role of tourism and terrorism in shaping well-being measures and, to address the mechanism of how tourism and well-being measures can lead to terrorism in developing economies. Thus, it examines the causal relationship between well-being measures (overall well-being, social well-being, health well-being, and material well-being), tourism, terrorism, and inequality by focusing on Pakistan as a case study. We ap…
Empirical assessment of government policies and flattening of the Covid 19 curve
The objective of the study is 2-fold. First, it estimates the 2019 new coronavirus disease (COVID19) flattening curve using Panel Random Coefficient Model. This allows each country to have its trajectory while allowing for random error effects to transfer across countries. Second, it calculates the expected number of days to reach the flattening point of COVID19 curve and estimate the empirical effectiveness of government policies around the worl…
Energy consumption, institutional quality and tourist arrival in Pakistan: Is the nexus (a)symmetric amidst structural breaks
Energy consumption is a prerequisite for economic growth especially in developing countries, and its demand is expected to increases as population increases. The quality of institutions is also germane for tourism development, as weak institutions may discourage the arrival of tourists into a country. This study examines the asymmetric impact of energy consumption (EC) and institutional quality (IQ) on tourist arrival (TA) in Pakistan for the per…
Modern derivatives in Islamic perspectives in Pakistan: Shari'ah issues on current Islamic derivative practices
This study examines the opinions of Shari'ah intellectuals' about Islamic derivatives. This research utilizes a qualitative approach to figure out better comprehension of Shari'ah intellectuals (scholars) views regarding Islamic derivatives. Therefore, five Shari'ah intellectuals were interviewed during this study and these scholars were actively involved in the decision making of Islamic financial institutions in Pakistan. The findings of the st…
Addressing the challenges of Covid ‐19 pandemic outbreak: Pakistan's preparations and response
This study examines the challenges faced by Pakistan during COVID‐19 pandemic and the policies taken by the Government of Pakistan to contain and control the spread of the pandemic. Pakistan is considered among those countries that have been severely affected by COVID‐19 due to insufficient health infrastructure. Moreover, the pandemic has affected the country socially and economically, which has slashed down GDP and overall wellbeing. However, t…
Role of public health and trade for achieving sustainable development goals
The United Nations General Assembly adopted “2030 agenda” for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with the objective of “transforming our world.” Provision of health and trade services is central in SDGs. This study focuses on broad objectives of public health and trade, which would significantly contribute to satisfying the health and trade‐related targets of the SDGs. The paper outlines the key provisions in recent trade agreements that constr…
