Many recent initiatives have been introduced to enhance ecological sustainability by minimizing countries' footprints (EF). The focus has on achieving environmental footprint neutrality through the application of green technologies (GT) and financial development (FD) in facilitating this transition. To determine contribution these variables sustainability, study investigated effects GT FD EF Algeria from Q1/1990 Q4/2021. Additionally, research examines moderating role with EF. achieve objectives, advanced Fourier autoregressive distributed lag techniques causality test were employed. findings reveal that increases EF, leading degradation. Conversely, reduces long run, demonstrating its potential foster sustainability. Notably, highlights significant FD-EF relationship. This underscores critical mitigating adverse creative lowering Therefore, recommends integrates long-term reduction harm. In conclusion, needs hasten combination stronger mitigate impacts without compromising sustainable economic growth.

Linking Resource Richness, Digital Economy, and Clean Energy to Ecological Footprint and Load Capacity Factor in Emerging Markets

Natural Resources Forum, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Янв. 8, 2025

ABSTRACT The wave of digitalization has spread across all countries in the world, with lasting environmental consequences medium and long term. On flip side, impact resource richness, including its exploitation consumption, been an age‐long debate among policymakers, particularly emerging markets. As such, this study examines effect natural resources (NR), digital economy, clean energy consumption on ecological footprint (EF) load capacity factor (LCF) from 2000 to 2022. current enriches literature by assessing different dimensions economy both demand side supply quality. results augment mean group estimator suggest that NR economic growth increase EF models. However, indicators except ICT goods exports, alleviate EF. same set variables reduce also LCF for selected countries. Renewable (REC) heterogeneous effects LCF, suggesting is not adequately consumed In addition, direction causality flows A bidirectional exists between REC EF, LCF. Based findings, it recommended develop more technologies, intensify process promotion, mobilize benefits transition a sustainable environment.

Alleviating environmental pressure from livestock production: A “livestock-resource environmental carrying capacity” perspective in China

Ecological Indicators, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 160, С. 111800 - 111800

Опубликована: Фев. 27, 2024

Scientific assessment of the relationships and influencing factors between livestock resource-environmental carrying capacity (LS-RECC) is essential for alleviating environmental pressure. The crop-livestock balance method was used to measure China's production potential from 2005 2020. improved coupling coordination degree model (I-CCDM) exploratory spatial data analysis (ESDA) were analyze spatial-temporal coordinated development characteristics LS-RECC. Furthermore, geographically temporally weighted regression (GTWR) identify findings showed that (1) From 2020, nutrient demand crop cultivation in China increased, and, system exceeded supply 2007 190 ×104 tons, reaching a maximum 925 tons 2019. However, Ningxia, Tibet, Guizhou, Gansu, Yunnan, Qinghai severely overloaded. (2) (CCD) LS-RECC progressively increasing trend, which indicates sustainable ability industry constantly increasing. compared with eastern central China, level western lower, further indicating excessive China. (3) Environmental regulation had strongest effect on regional LS-RECC, obvious differences. economic positive effect, but urbanization Engel's coefficients opposite effect. These results provide not only references reducing pressure also guidance other large countries.

Micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) during the post-pandemic economic recovery period: digitalization, literation, innovation, and its impact on financial performance

Cogent Business & Management, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 11(1)

Опубликована: Апрель 22, 2024

This study explores the impact of digitalization, literation, and innovation on financial performance Micro, Small, Medium-Sized Enterprises (MSMEs) in Bojonegoro, East Java, Indonesia. Using a sample 35 business owners, research employs partial least squares structural equations modelling. The findings reveal positive significant relationship between MSMEs' performance, emphasizing crucial role innovative practices. Additionally, owners' literacy levels positively influence innovation. Although digitalization shows lack statistical significance calls for nuanced exploration. contributes to understanding complex dynamics within MSMEs post-pandemic, importance literation offers practical insights MSME owners enhancing fostering an culture their businesses. Policymakers were also encouraged allocate resources facilitate training owners. Urban areas might employ varying pandemic response strategies depending economic circumstances, resulting differences interaction variables. Future studies should extend these diverse urban settings broaden our innovation, digitalization's performance.

Role of natural resources, renewable energy sources, eco-innovation and carbon taxes in carbon neutrality: Evidence from G7 economies

Heliyon, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 10(13), С. e33526 - e33526

Опубликована: Июнь 25, 2024

Global warming has created problems for human life, and it been increasing a few years. All the developing developed countries are establishing policies to attain zero carbon status. This study extends ongoing debate on emissions. It examines effect of natural resources RE (Biofuel other renewable sources) greenhouse gas (CO2 emission PM2.5) emissions while using data over 22 years (1999–2021) from G7 countries. In addition, this investigated taxes, financial development, environmental neutrality. The cross-sectional-ARDL, Common correlated means group (CCEMG), Augmented mean (AMG) cutting-edge model have employed. Quantile regression employed robustness. results demonstrate that biofuel energy (RE) sources, policy, eco-innovation decrease emissions). Meanwhile, resource dependence positively impact robustness result also verifies findings CS-ARDL, AMG, CCEMG methods. empirical used infer policy implications economies.

Global warming has become a big problem around the world, and it is because of what people do. As possible answer, countries are looking for ways to keep their economies growing invest in technologies that use clean energy. Therefore, notion carbon neutrality emerged as crucial policy strategy nations attain sustainable development. This study expands existing discussions on by investigating influence key factors, including green innovation, financial development, natural resources depletion, trade openness, institutional quality, growth, urbanization progress made towards attaining neutral state BRICS nations. considers Method Moment Quantile-Regression (MM-QR) Prais–Winsten correlated panel corrected standard errors (PCSEs) estimators investigate objectives over period 1990–2021. Under investigated outcomes, this validated significant role growth neutrality. On other hand, finds positive resource development environmental deterioration. However, under systematic analysis, utilizes different proxies sector, instance, complexity, efficiency, stability, domestic credit provides interesting outcomes. Based these also suggestions desired levels sustainability.

Опубликована: Фев. 20, 2025

The scanning curve of the soil–water characteristic (SWCC) represents intermediate paths followed by soil as it transitions between initial drying and main wetting cycles. alternating occurrence climatic conditions, such rainfall evaporation in different regions globally, provides a valuable framework for understanding how these dynamics influence curve. Monitoring can provide insights managing water resources mitigating impacts drought, contributing to environmental sustainability enabling more precise agricultural practices, promoting conservation, supporting resilience ecosystems face climate change. It enhances data-driven designs that minimize resource use, reduce impact, increase slopes natural hazards like landslides flooding. Available studies determine SWCC are limited mostly conducted laboratory. This study aims real-time measurement unsaturated soil. research focuses on assessing hysteresis behavior residual slope from old alluvium through combination field instrumentation laboratory testing. pore size distribution was derived SWCC. Field monitoring (scanning curve) indicates measurable deviations experimental results, including 10% lower saturated content 25% air-entry value. demonstrates potential field-based determination curves. highlights their role improving prediction hydraulic during varying conditions.
