African countries have become interested in economic transformation through revamping their manufacturing sectors. However, the environmental effect of industrialization is an issue great concern, with need to maintain a sustainable environment line development goals. This study investigates on sustainability Africa, taking consideration moderation renewable energy and non-renewable consumption. Data was collected for 46 from Global Footprint Network, World Development Indicators Bank Food Agricultural Organization 2000 2022. Robust panel fixed effects regression generalized least squares methods were used analyze data. The empirical results showed that value added has negative significant sustainability. when interacted consumption, exerted positive load capacity factor, indicating will be if sector activities are powered by energies. suggests ability propel industrial growth Africa while sustaining environment. moderating estimates. suggest fossil fuel particularly clean fuels or natural gas can still drive without considerably harming but continual use it long run make unsustainable. From above results, this recommends take place, should grow her extending range manufactured products light heavy manufactures ensuring remains major source supply.

Since the ECOWAS region is most susceptible to climate change, factors driving change and policy processes are pressuring authorities in take more action fight against change. In light of this, paper investigates role financial development, globalization, renewable energy, economic growth, industrialization reducing environmental degradation framework N-shaped Kuznets curve hypothesis. Second generation econometric techniques, Driscoll-Kraay panel regression approach quantile estimation techniques were developed based on a dataset 10 countries from 1990 2019. From analyses, EKC validated for region. Moreover, empirical analysis suggests that lower levels associated with increased development energy usage. Globalization have deleterious impact quality. The results U-test also reveal shape contingent nation under study. On other hand, show holds low medium emitters but not high emitters. significantly promote all quantiles, while homogeneously reduces degradation. Financial was found hinder having neutral effect offers valuable directions policymakers findings.

Numerous investigations have extensively examined the effects of renewable energy on CO2 emissions. However, a majority previous studies overlooked potential nonlinear that may These could be influenced by various factors, including human capital. Regrettably, existing literature has not adequately explored role capital in this context. Therefore, objective study was to investigate impacts different levels relationship between and To achieve objective, employed dynamic threshold panel data model encompassing 67 countries, both developed developing, over period from 1999 2019. The empirical findings revealed negative impact found there is effect associated with index. For value 3.407, while for developing it 2.949. When index exceeded these thresholds, reducing emissions significantly greater. In 4.75 times more effective, 5 effective when surpassed threshold. results also show had direct Additionally, lagged emissions, fossil fuel consumption, population density, GDP, industrial activities all exerted positive

Abstract Introduction This study investigates the determinants impacting consumer purchasing behavior. Methods Utilizing multidimensional planned behavior theory alongside measures of brand awareness and green awareness, this examines mediating role theory. Empirical data were gathered through a survey conducted among Generation Z university students, yielding 638 responses. Analysis was performed on 590 valid Results Findings indicate that marketing initiatives positively influence consumers’ purchase intentions. Subdimensions (TPB), namely, attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, serve to strengthen these relationships mediate interaction process. Conclusion contributes novel insights burgeoning field literature, offering structural model for firms policymakers. It suggests companies can effectively engage in informal education efforts, thereby influencing decisions via Moreover, such activities foster an increase providing with opportunity promote conscious The study's utilization TPB is both timely original, particularly its alignment United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.

This study delves into exploring and comparing various cooling technologies for PV panels, with a special focus on revealing the harmful effect of excessive heat absorption solar energy efficiency. Effective temperature management dissipation excess are essential to protect integrity panels improve power generation. With strong emphasis importance experimental setups, this comprehensive research examines methodologies methods used across wide range studies, illustrating complexities data collection analysis. Supported by schematic illustrations depicting demystifies inherent in distinct methods. Furthermore, extends beyond experimentation include examination economic aspects associated technologies, including calculation presentation efficiency ratios. It is worth noting that results confirm superiority passive techniques, sinks (43 %), PCM (25), evaporation techniques (36 spray systems (54 contrast active methods, as indicated their net Passive advantageous its low maintenance cost-effectiveness, whereas cooling, though effective hot climates enhancing efficiency, incurs higher initial costs requirements. The novelty lies detailed classification specific materials each method, coupled thorough measuring tools employed. includes comparative analysis based aspects, alongside advantages disadvantages technique. These invaluable insights hold potential revolutionize development efficient dependable strategies systems, thereby elevating feasibility sustainability pivotal cornerstone our future landscape.
