ABSTRACT Nigeria faces significant environmental and health risks due to rapid Waste Electrical Electronics Equipment (WEEE) generation, estimated at 500,000 tons annually. This systematic review analyses the situation of WEEE in Nigeria, examining existing policies, regulations, emerging technologies for sustainable recycling. The analysis reveals gaps legislation, inadequate infrastructure, primitive recycling methods, resulting severe pollution risks. Emerging technologies, such as waste‐to‐energy conversion, circular economy approaches, offer potential solutions. evaluates these technologies' effectiveness sustainability Nigerian context. Recommendations policy reforms, technological innovations, stakeholder engagement are provided inform evidence‐based decision‐making promote practices Nigeria.

Natural resource management is indispensable keeping in view their positive economic impacts as well detrimental environmental consequences. To achieve certain SDGs, it inevitable to manage natural resources through effective policies that help inhibit adverse impacts. Based on this approach, the current empirical analysis aims probe whether policy stringency intensifies, meagres, and/or halts abysmal impact of G-7 countries (United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Italy, France, Japan, and Germany) for period from 1990 2020. end, we rely second-generation panel data approaches quantile regression. The outcomes reveal increase carbon dioxide emission whereas synergy plunges emissions across quantiles. These findings suggest adoption a strict attaining targets SGD-08 (economic growth), SDG-09 (innovations), SDG-11 (sustainable cities), SDG-12 (responsible consumption resources), SDG-13 (climate action).
