A reconciliation of the disagreement on whether financial globalization (FG) affects ecological footprint through scale, technique and composition effects cannot be achieved without an explicit understanding direct indirect interactions FG with environmental sustainability. Hence, novel perspective this study lies in investigation how green innovations moderate non-linear tendencies FG-environmental sustainability link among western African states given abundance natural resources prevailing pace economic growth. The core findings are obtained from robust analysis based cross-sectional autoregressive distributed lag (CS-ARDL) technique, augmented mean group (AMG) common correlated (CCEMG) advanced estimators. Firstly, beneficial impacts were observed. As per impact, enhanced exhibits detrimental effects. However, cushion observed adverse FG. Furthermore, resource rents reduce within moderating framework innovation as Kuznets curve (EKC) is validated states. Additionally, a bidirectional causal between globalization, innovations, growth, resources, was Thus, significant policy implication for West to decisively increase their investments while strategically encouraging share ecologically friendly total utilization guarantee more sustainable environment.

Abstract This work aims to examines the effect of Chinese outward foreign direct investment (CoFDI), renewable energy, and energy intensity on CO 2 emissions in 46 Belt Road Initiative (BRI) nations divided into: Panel A, consisting 16 European countries, B, comprising 30 Asian MENA countries. analysis used data from 2005 2018, applying second-generation econometric techniques. The empirical outcomes, obtained using Driscoll–Kraay methods, confirmed pollution halo suggesting that FDI flows these countries are environmentally friendly. In contrast, results indicated a positive impact CoFDI e supporting haven hypothesis may add pollution. addition, study found an inverted-U-shaped association between per capita income e, validating environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) both panels. findings also revealed positively affects whereas has significant negative panels, while interaction terms heterogenous Based findings, recommends policy makers attract clean FDI, particularly sectors, shift fossil fuel-based sources control by enacting energy-saving initiatives via lowering intensity.

To advance the global sustainable development agenda and uphold emission reduction commitments of Paris Agreement, this study is dedicated to exploring potential digital infrastructure construction in fostering carbon reductions. Drawing on panel data from 249 cities China spanning period 2010 2021, we empirically analyze impact, mechanisms, heterogeneous effects urban emissions using a two-way fixed-effect model. Furthermore, delve into carbon-reducing new-type construction. The research findings indicate that can significantly decrease emissions; it achieves by enhancing green innovation heightening public environmental awareness, thereby further reducing emissions. In city samples located western regions, with higher government fiscal expenditures better foundations for new energy utilization, promotional effect reductions more pronounced. Additionally, demonstrates significant emissions, where well developed, even evident. This deepens our understanding mechanisms through which digitization empowers regional variations involved, providing empirical evidence governments formulate differentiated policies future research, plan expand scope investigation countries regions globally; concurrently, will conduct an in-depth analysis long-term
