Economic activities based on primary industrial operations and fossil fuel energy cause environmental pollution by releasing carbon dioxide that is harmful to the environment. Green technological innovation institutional quality are considered important tools reduce emission levels promote economic growth. However, there few studies explore role of in exacerbating from perspective emerging Asian countries. Thus, this study unveils influence green technology innovation, quality, renewable use non-renewable per capita emissions growth countries 1995 2022. The current uses second-generation augmented mean group common correlated effects panel methods, taking into account residual cross-sectional dependence heterogeneity reveal long term relationship between dynamics. analysis results emphasize every 1% expansion can strongly 0.329%, while effectively boosting 0.397%. improvement 0.243% 0.362% respectively. Moreover, reduces promotes enhancement, considerably stimulates progress. Based revealed exploration, recommends markets Asia should strengthen their respective focus investing projects achieve sustainable development goals.

This manuscript investigates the interplay between energy dynamics, economic growth, and environmental sustainability, offering a comprehensive analysis of Türkiye's long-term ecological trends. In this sense, research elaborates long-run linkage among natural gas import, usage, trade openness, urbanization footprint (EF) by implementing Johansen cointegration test, fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) analysis, nonlinear distributed lag autoregressive model (NARDL) model, wavelet analyses from 1980 to 2022 for Türkiye. Furthermore, when contributions novelties paper existing academic literature are considered, time series models comprehending FMOLS NARDL point out relationship EF, which is confirming Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis Türkiye in short term. Considering coefficients 1% increases gross domestic product EF 0.1972% increase import 0.0369% as negatively. addition, according it should be stated that use 0.7600%. When all remaining independent variables examined deeply thoroughly, there positive effect them. Empirical findings reveal imports ( p = .0428) consumption < .0001) major contributors degradation. Conversely, .3999) demonstrates potential mitigating pressure long The study highlights need transitioning renewable energy, enhancing efficiency, adopting sustainable urban development practices. These emphasize importance aligning growth with sustainability through targeted policy interventions. Unlike previous studies predominantly concentrate on CO 2 emissions, dissimilarly overlooked effects imports. insights not only expand understanding dynamics but also challenge common perception an eco-friendly source. To sum up, includes empirical results patronizes necessity transition resources cleaner technologies mitigate costs.
