Carbon neutrality achievement, mitigating and reverting environmental degradations, increasing renewable energy projections have been among the most mentioned received attention of government's agendas. Nearly all documents policy actions designed highlighted under environmental-related issues. However, considered tough decisions involving a trade-off between quality economic welfare. The Environmental Phillips Curve has recently introduced insight into trade-off, EPC implies that degradations can be blessed at cost high unemployment. study strives to scrutinize EKC hypotheses by considering effect Democratization, government, fossil use on CO₂ emissions in UK. Within this context, ARDL approach, FMOLS, DOLS estimators are performed data covering period 1990 2021. result discloses hypothesis is not verified, whereas holds for Besides, government Democratization play pivotal role emissions, while fuels impair air evidence policymakers improved democratic institutions implement better performance providing directions degradation, country with achieved compositions techniques effects pro-environmental policies without

Enhancing climate action in OECD countries: the role of environmental policy stringency for energy transitioning to a sustainable environment

Environmental Sciences Europe, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 36(1)

Published: Sept. 3, 2024

Climate change affects the world economy, environment, and human well-being, jeopardizing overall sustainability. The escalating impacts of climate emphasize necessity to assess moderating influence environmental policy stringency (EPS) on association energy transition (ET) GHG emissions from 1990 2020 across 36 OECD countries. Further, this study incorporates direct impact (ET), environmental-related technology (ERTs), green innovation (INV), Gross Domestic Product (GDP) emission. For purpose, employs an extensive range econometric techniques, including DOLS, FMOLS, CCR, MMQR approaches evaluate data attributes. findings demonstrate that interaction ET*EPS contributes lower −0.271% −0.300% all quantiles (20th 80th). This indicates implementation policies fosters adoption transitions mitigate negative effects change, particularly reduce emissions. technologies (ERTs) (INV) decrease by 0.15%–0.13% 0.967%–2.049%, respectively, quantiles, thus encouraging heterogeneous effect ERTs is due varying levels in sample highlight crucial need for integrating strictness measures effectively It highlights significance adaptive, responsive are line with SDGs 7 & 13, which concentrate sustainable practices integrated action economies.

Abstract The purpose of this “perspective” type paper is to revisit and recapitulate an existing alternative approach measuring economic sustainable GDP (using the ISEW as a proxy) at both national regional levels. Motivated by recognized inadequacies Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in capturing true welfare, study highlights need for comprehensive indicators that reflect genuine prosperity. While has long served primary macroeconomic measure development, it fails account progress, prompting exploration measures. In recent decades, development become focal point global, national, economies, highlighted United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals. inability capture welfare led proposal various literature. This revisits recapitulates Index Economic Welfare, first introduced Daly Cobb (For common good: redirecting economy toward community, environment, future, Beacon Press, Boston, 1989), which adjusts better development. current reviews application across different countries revealing significant insights into limitations benefits more holistic Additionally, emphasizes importance prosperity local level advocates inclusion cultural aspects fourth pillar
