This study explores the long-run relationship among environmental footprint (EnF), renewable energy consumption, use, industrial growth, and urbanization in Saudi Arabia from 1990 to 2023, employing Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model, alongside Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS), Dynamic (DOLS), Canonical Cointegrating Regression (CCR) for robustness checks. Results indicate a significant long-term variables, with adoption emerging as crucial factor reducing carbon emissions. The ARDL bounds test confirms existence of cointegration, revealing dynamic interplay energy, economic sustainability. findings show that consumption significantly reduces (CO2 emissions), supporting Arabia’s Vision 2030 goals diversification sustainable development. However, expansion, while critical still contributes increased emissions, underscoring need further investment clean technologies. also highlights role urbanization, which, essential development, poses challenges Short-term dynamics, represented by Error Correction Model, fast adjustment speed toward equilibrium, deviations corrected approximately 52% each period. offers valuable insights policymakers aiming balance growth protection, emphasizing strategic investments efficiency. research understanding energy–economy–environment interactions oil-rich economies, providing foundation future studies explore impact advanced technologies policy interventions on development

Many recent initiatives have been introduced to enhance ecological sustainability by minimizing countries' footprints (EF). The focus has on achieving environmental footprint neutrality through the application of green technologies (GT) and financial development (FD) in facilitating this transition. To determine contribution these variables sustainability, study investigated effects GT FD EF Algeria from Q1/1990 Q4/2021. Additionally, research examines moderating role with EF. achieve objectives, advanced Fourier autoregressive distributed lag techniques causality test were employed. findings reveal that increases EF, leading degradation. Conversely, reduces long run, demonstrating its potential foster sustainability. Notably, highlights significant FD-EF relationship. This underscores critical mitigating adverse creative lowering Therefore, recommends integrates long-term reduction harm. In conclusion, needs hasten combination stronger mitigate impacts without compromising sustainable economic growth.

ABSTRACT The wave of digitalization has spread across all countries in the world, with lasting environmental consequences medium and long term. On flip side, impact resource richness, including its exploitation consumption, been an age‐long debate among policymakers, particularly emerging markets. As such, this study examines effect natural resources (NR), digital economy, clean energy consumption on ecological footprint (EF) load capacity factor (LCF) from 2000 to 2022. current enriches literature by assessing different dimensions economy both demand side supply quality. results augment mean group estimator suggest that NR economic growth increase EF models. However, indicators except ICT goods exports, alleviate EF. same set variables reduce also LCF for selected countries.

Scientific assessment of the relationships and influencing factors between livestock resource-environmental carrying capacity (LS-RECC) is essential for alleviating environmental pressure. The crop-livestock balance method was used to measure China's production potential from 2005 2020. improved coupling coordination degree model (I-CCDM) exploratory spatial data analysis (ESDA) were analyze spatial-temporal coordinated development characteristics LS-RECC. Furthermore, geographically temporally weighted regression (GTWR) identify findings showed that (1) From 2020, nutrient demand crop cultivation in China increased, and, system exceeded supply 2007 190 ×104 tons, reaching a maximum 925 tons 2019. However, Ningxia, Tibet, Guizhou, Gansu, Yunnan, Qinghai severely overloaded.

Global warming has created problems for human life, and it been increasing a few years. All the developing developed countries are establishing policies to attain zero carbon status. This study extends ongoing debate on emissions. It examines effect of natural resources RE (Biofuel other renewable sources) greenhouse gas (CO2 emission PM2.5) emissions while using data over 22 years (1999–2021) from G7 countries. In addition, this investigated taxes, financial development, environmental neutrality. The cross-sectional-ARDL, Common correlated means group (CCEMG), Augmented mean (AMG) cutting-edge model have employed.
