The study investigates the relationship between technological innovation, clean energy, trade openness, and natural resource rents on environmental sustainability within BRICS + T nations. Motivated by urgent need to address escalating CO2 emissions—reaching 36.4 billion metric tons in 2022—the research aims understand how these factors influence emissions, ecological footprint, load capacity factor, its inverse, contributing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). uses panel data from countries spanning period 1990 2022. Employing advanced econometric techniques such as Dynamic Seemingly Unrelated Regression (DSUR), Cross-Sectionally Augmented Panel Unit Root (CUP-FM, CUP-BC), nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) models, tests Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis evaluates asymmetric effects of variables. Key findings indicate that innovation consistently reduces emissions footprints, reinforcing role promoting through cleaner technologies more efficient industrial processes. Clean energy adoption has also been shown be a significant driver reducing degradation, with consistent negative while improving factor. However, openness exhibits dual effect. While it enhances use efficiency, simultaneously increases likely due heightened activity. Natural display mixed results: some cases, they exacerbate others, contribute funding eco-friendly initiatives. recommends nations prioritize investments green technologies, strengthen regulations, enhance international collaboration accelerate transition renewable energy. Policymakers should balance benefits stricter standards mitigate adverse sustainability. These integrated strategies are essential for achieving targets outlined SDGs.

Abstract This paper investigates the asymmetric effects of fossil fuels, foreign direct investment (FDI), and globalization on ecological footprint (EFP) in Mexico from 1975 to 2020. To this end, Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL), Nonlinear (NARDL), wavelet coherence approach are conducted. Based outcomes ARDL method, economic growth fuel consumption lead degradation, while improves environmental conditions. Globalization has no impact environment. The NARDL illustrates that a positive shock FDI, degrades results emphasize adverse influence fuels. These imply Mexican government should conduct its expansion considering principle sustainable development. In context, policymakers propagate carbon taxes similar instruments promote clean energy sources can replace fuels compatible with development policies.
