Abstract Recent decades have seen an increasingly awareness of climate changes, putting a pressure on companies to do more deal with carbon emission. One the popular measures used in assessing how well company commits sustainable development and reduces emissions is ESG ratings. Given importance both ratings footprints our society target net zero by 2050, we explore relation between emission Refinitiv scores for US sample from 2005 2018. Our findings indicate that high ESG‐rated or environment‐rated firms not lower emissions. It appears these are incentivized environment, as they already been awarded good publicity being environmentally friendly. Finally, also support ‘cheap talk’ concept, greenwashing hypothesis legitimacy theory. Companies genuinely committed action.

Furthermore, acts catalyst, playing negative moderating role validated by both regression fixed effects models on data. Green indirectly influences supporting innovation, thus facilitating transition greener economic development framework. Lastly, disparities are found influence CE. In regions high performance, impact is smaller, while low more significant. findings offer theoretical backing for policymakers regarding efficacy achieving neutrality objectives, valuable strategic recommendations diversified formulation strategies national provincial scales. Regional heterogeneity test results provide support formulating policies encourage provinces performance.
