This study investigates the impact of renewable and non-renewable energy sources on carbon emissions in context China's 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025). The plan emphasises a "Dual-control" strategy simultaneously setting consumption limits reducing intensity for GDP (gross domestic product) order to meet targets five-year plan. Using comprehensive dataset Chinese macroeconomic information spanning from 1990 2022, we conduct Granger causality analysis explore relationship between level air pollution. Our findings reveal unidirectional link, wherein contributes reduction pollution, while lead an increase.

The perceived relationship between digitalization and ecological, economic, and social sustainability

Journal of Cleaner Production, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 315, P. 128128 - 128128

Published: June 28, 2021

Sustainability, in terms of ecological, economic, and social sustainable development, the advancing digitalization represent some most substantial societal challenges today. However, little is known about how different actors decision-makers perceive relationship those two challenges. In our paper, by building upon framing theory representations theory, we address that gap investigating interrelationship between sustainability. Such research particularly important because understandings sustainability determine actors, including managers policymakers, act response to imperatives. Following a multi-method approach, combined media analysis with experimental studies examining various frame discourses which dimension sustainability—ecological, or social—dominates. Building these results, assess whether extent affects perception three dimensions. Among findings, perceptions ecological economic but not seem be affected digitalization. For future research, findings indicate need for more nuanced view on accounts its dimensions, especially Beyond that, perceived link guides respond imperatives, work also has practical implications as well.
