Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(1)

Published: Oct. 29, 2024

Digital trade, as one of the vanguards global technological revolution and industrial transformation, empowers low-carbon economic cooperation on a scale. This study based panel data from 2007 to 2021 46 countries with varied development levels, constructed multi-dimensional indicator system six aspects: trade potential, digital infrastructure, innovation, skills security, scale environment, aim measure level explore its impact carbon emissions, followed by heterogeneity analysis. The research results indicate that there are significant differences in levels among different strengths. Countries stronger power larger scales have higher development, while less developed regions lag trade. As increases, emissions will also change. Overall, exhibits pronounced effect, varies levels.

Pursuing a carbon-neutral world: How digital exports, financial stability, and energy security contribute to green growth

Energy & Environment, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Dec. 19, 2024

Digital exports, financial stability, and energy security are vital in determining green growth. However, no empirics the past have shed light on relationship between digital security, The main focus of analysis is how affect growth 33 world's leading energy-consuming economies from 2000 to 2021. To that end, study employed novel cross-sectionally augmented autoregressive distributed lag (CS-ARDL) model. Our findings show exports stability boost long-run full sample Asian, European, American models, while risks hinder models. Environmental technology promotes full-sample European renewable consumption helps In short run, crucial for Asian environmental benefits all Integrating sustainable practices ecologically commercially rewarding a fast-changing global context essential.
