This manuscript explores the relationship between economic awareness (as a part of energy awareness) Polish households and their sustainable consumption practices. Sustainable is measured by frequency behaviors such as turning off electrical devices when not in use, removing mobile device chargers from sockets, switching lights leaving room, preferring showers over baths, using washing machines dishwashers only full, purchasing energy-efficient appliances light bulbs. Economic gauged through variables knowledge electricity tariffs, understanding electric bill components, prices, exact expenses, usage kWh, effective energy-saving methods, familiarity with efficiency classes study presents profiles high low regarding expenditures examines how these differ behaviors. research based on survey 1407 conducted online 2023.

This study examines the dynamics of transition to green economies in relation energy poverty European countries. By employing augmented mean group (AMG) and fully modified ordinary least squares estimations (FMOLS), we find empirical evidence that indicates influence variables representing processes transitioning on poverty. To further elucidate these relationships, Granger causality analysis was conducted. The findings this research contribute ongoing discourse surrounding from perspective productivity. It is observed improvements productivity are associated with a reduction prevalence Additionally, noteworthy relationship identified between consumption energy, whereby an increase corresponds proportion within overall mix.

The core hallmark of new quality productive forces (NQPFs) is a substantial increase in total factor productivity. Developing NQPFs tailored to local conditions significantly promote green, low-carbon, and environmentally sustainable development. This paper selects 30 provinces municipalities China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Tibet) as research samples. It employs the super-efficiency Slacks-Based Measure (SBM) model, coupling coordination degree analysis, kernel density estimation, Dagum Gini coefficient, β-convergence analysis measure analyze between carbon productivity (CTFP). results indicate that CTFP exhibits an upward trend overall. At same time, show initial increase, followed by decline, with significant regional variations observed both. There notable heterogeneity CTFP. eastern region demonstrates highest degree, central, western, northeastern regions. primary cause this differential distribution inter-regional disparities, particularly widening gap others. Further reveals that, except for region, dynamic evolution nationwide other regions tends converge. Regarding absolute β-convergence, converges fastest, while western slowest. conditional convergence speeds are consistent, but remain unchanged. study provides important theoretical support achieving balanced development comprehensively enhancing CTFP, ensuring contributions low-carbon economy.
