Role of green finance and carbon accounting in achieving sustainability

Humanities and Social Sciences Communications, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 11(1)

Published: Jan. 18, 2024

Abstract This study delves into the influence of carbon accounting and green finance on sustainable development index within a dataset 500 Chinese publicly listed companies over period from 2010 to 2020. Leveraging analysis conducted through fully modified OLS methodology, research findings unveil that adoption positively impacts among these Chinese-listed firms. However, number employees engaged in exhibits an adverse effect index, consumption resources, including water electricity, demonstrates inverse relationship with overall sustainability In light findings, suggests several central policies bolster development. These include expanding markets by harnessing financial technology (fintech) big data, advancing corporate management, investing energy projects, establishing efficient taxation system.

Advancing Sustainable Fluorine Management in China Based on Evolution of the Anthropogenic Cycle during 2000–2020

Environmental Science & Technology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Feb. 21, 2025

Fluorine (F) has substantial social and environmental significance. Despite its high natural abundance, which often leads to the neglect of sustainable management, primary source, fluorspar, is limited nonrenewable. As world's largest producer consumer F resources, China encounters considerable challenges in managing these resources sustainably. However, a comprehensive understanding flows across China's economy been notably absent. This study establishes national-level material flow analysis (MFA) framework examine circulation accumulation substances various sectors from 2000 2020. The MFA encompasses over 200 F-containing products 15 key sectors, tracking through stages production, manufacturing, use, waste management. Key findings show that resource supply increased 2297.9 kt 6392.2 2020, with 91.1% sourced domestic ore mining. consumption for manufacturing rose 270.1 2462.9 same period. Traditional like metallurgy, cement electrolytic aluminum dominated consumption, while emerging photovoltaics experienced rapid growth. net exporter exports totaling 14,732.3 compared 1931.1 imports two decades. Nonetheless, role global trade shifted primarily exporting ores becoming major products. provides date flows, offering critical insights policymakers industry stakeholders enhance management practices address related supply, utilization efficiency, impacts.

Energy transition through bioelectricity in Pakistan: Implications for limiting global mean temperature below 1.5°C

Environmental Progress & Sustainable Energy, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 42(4)

Published: May 29, 2023

Abstract Climate change threats demand unprecedented economic shifts around the world, including a fundamental transformation of global energy system. An transition is underway in most regions, predominantly power sector. This research depicts pathway for achieving 100% renewable systems through bioenergy Pakistan. The growth rate 20%, 30%, and 40% biomass projects were considered study period 2023 to 2053 using Low Emissions Analysis Platform (LEAP) software. It presents technology‐rich, multi‐sectoral cost‐optimal limiting mean temperature below 1.5°C. results revealed that Pakistan's electricity generation undergoes rapidly evolving from fossil fuels 62.1% 81.3% renewables 2053, entirely zero CO 2 emissions by 2060. Hydro source costly, wind solar sources are seasonal so emerges as major supply cost optimal Share increasing mere 0.81% 9.44% under 20% rate, which then increase 39.67% 30% further increases 78.33% rate. Pakistan contributes 0.8% carbon footprint, but we among 10 climate‐stressed countries on planet this helps reduce cumulative 151.63 million metric tons 8.90 across power, heat, transport, desalination sectors.

The Impact of the Digital Economy on Regional Carbon Emissions: Evidence from China

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 15(20), P. 14863 - 14863

Published: Oct. 13, 2023

As a high-tech, energy-efficient mode of economic development, the digital economy has strong impact on regional carbon emissions and sustainable development. With sample panel data from 30 provinces in China ranging 2011 to 2021, this study employs an expanded STIRPAT model examine emissions. The results reveal that significantly inhibits emissions, specifically, 1% increase level development leads decline approximately 1.09% total heterogeneity analysis indicates more significant inhibitory effect eastern region areas with higher economy. mechanism shows can inhibit by affecting energy efficiency changing structure. A further spatial spillover reduction Therefore, government should fully leverage potential promote emission reduction, innovation technology, continuously improve utilization efficiency, achieve mutually beneficial goal benefits reduction.
