Climate change poses an urgent challenge to both developed and developing economies, with varying degrees of vulnerability institutional capacity. This study investigates the impact energy efficiency, technological financial innovations, industrial-economic development, quality on climate effects (CCE), measured by ecological footprint, across G20 countries. Using panel data from 2000 2022, we apply Method Moments Quantile Regression (MMQR), Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS), Fully Modified (FMOLS) capture distributional long-run relationships. The results reveal that innovations significantly reduce CCE in groups, though is more pronounced economies. In contrast, technologies are positively associated suggesting expansion digital infrastructure without green safeguards may exacerbate environmental degradation. Energy efficiency exhibits a rebound effect these contexts, undermining its potential benefits. Institutional industrial however, consistently demonstrate mitigating footprint. These findings offer differentiated policy insights: while innovation governance reforms critical all economies require stronger regulatory frameworks align growth objectives. contributes broader discourse sustainable development identifying context-specific levers for reducing pressures alignment Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

This study investigates the effects of financial globalization, trade and information communication technology on ecological footprint in G9 industrial economies (China, United States, Japan, Germany, India, South Korea, Italy, France, Kingdom) from 2000Q1 to 2018Q4. A distinctive Method Moments Quantile Regression (MMQR) model was employed analyze these relationships, Bootstrap (BSQR) used validate results. The findings reveal that globalization (FG), environmental tax (ETAX), institutional quality (IQ) contribute environmentally sustainable development by reducing (ECOFP). In contrast, (ICT), gross domestic product (GDP) have a significant positive impact footprint, leading increased degradation. BSQR results corroborate findings, confirming roles quality, tax, technology, shaping footprint. Based results, policymakers nations should promote as tool reduce encouraging green financing investments. For stricter regulations practices are essential mitigate its adverse effects. Also, efforts minimize focus integrating renewable energy into ICT infrastructure advancing innovations.

Achieving environmental sustainability has become a global priority, with energy efficiency (EE) emerging as critical pathway. This study examines the influence of information and communication technology service exports (ICT) on EE by integrating moderating role regulatory quality. We employ super-slack-based measure (Super-SBM) generalized least squares models in G20 economies throughout 2001–2023. The findings show that average is 0.855, which indicates potential for further improvement 14.50%. ICT positively related to EE, quality delivers conducive environment adoption technologies optimize usage. also indicate synergistic effect between quality, can lead substantial improvements emphasizing importance governance facilitating technological advancements. highlight renewable economic openness shaping EE. Furthermore, Argentina South Africa achieved highest reflecting their proximity efficient frontier. In robust tests, this verifies its results using method moments, panel-corrected standard error, feasible models. suggest perspectives provide valuable insights policymakers aiming enhance through digital transformation institutional reforms.

This study examines how environmental regulation (ER), green intellectual capital (GIC), human resource management (GHRM), and ambidextrous innovation (GAI) contribute to enhancing the sustainable performance (SP) of manufacturing firms. Using a quantitative approach, data from 472 managers garment firms in Bangladesh were analyzed with SmartPLS4 software. The results indicate that GHRM GIC positively impact SP, exerting stronger influence on GAI—encompassing exploitative (EIGI) exploratory (ERGI)—compared GHRM. Additionally, GAI affects SP serves as partial mediator GIC-SP relationship but not GHRM-SP relationship. ER negatively moderates GHRM-GAI links, while it GIC-GAI relationship, albeit weakly connection. highlights GAI’s mediating roles (specifically, GHRM-EIGI-SP GHRM-ERGI-SP) GIC-EIGI-SP GIC-ERGI-SP) relationships within regulatory context. By introducing fresh perspectives, this research advances studies, offering valuable insights for academics industry professionals. It provides strategic framework navigate regulations, foster innovation, optimize intangible resources, enhance performance, thereby positioning themselves leaders global market.
