This paper reviews and updates the indicator system constructed by previous scholars. The update of index includes: Firstly, latest data 2021 is added to original 1990–2020. Secondly, World Bank's has been restructured optimized, for example removing duplicative unimportant indicators. To demonstrate characteristics updated national ESG indices, this conducts a preliminary analysis performance 19 members G20 draws following conclusions: In general, all countries increased from 1990 2021. China experienced largest growth, jumping last first place in East Asia group, which strongly correlated with regulators' aggressive pursuit high-quality development through environmental regulation Chinese government's goal achieving carbon neutrality 2060. slow India South Africa, where racial issues, social inequality government corruption continue constrain performance.

Energy-environmental efficiency directly relates to global climate change and sustainable development. The research applies a staggered DiD design estimate the effects of low-carbon governance on energy-environmental via panel data 284 cities in China. Results show that significantly improves both unified pure efficiency. Heterogeneity analysis reveals central has no significant effect efficiency, while peripheral can improve which indirectly confirms law decreasing returns scale. At same time, resource-based non-resource-based However, among cities, growth mature facilitates this disappears declining regeneration cities. Mechanism tests suggest immediately through intensive energy use carbon emission reduction channels. intermediate channels are mainly driven by fiscal decentralization, industrial structure upgrading, agglomeration, innovation, marketization, where decentralization plays dominant role.

Abstract Digital infrastructure construction (DIC) is a crucial component of digital transformation, yet its impact on the sustainable development cities remains uncertain. To address this question, study employs Difference-in-Differences (DID) model to evaluate effects typical DIC policy, Broadband China Pilot (BBCP) policy. The research sample covers data from Chinese 2009 2019. DID estimation demonstrates that BBCP policy effectively decreased carbon emissions (COE). Robustness tests, such as parallel trend placebo propensity score matching DID, and local projection all confirm negative COE. Heterogeneity analysis reveals has greater mitigation effect COE in non-resource cities. stronger reducing with higher proportion green funds or lower fiscal expenditures. Further indicates significantly improves low-carbon ecological efficiency reduces intensity. results mechanism reveal lowers by enhancing industrial structure promoting technological progress. provides recommendations realm for developing countries achieve transformation low concurrently. This can assist governments better considering how implement policies construct ecologically
