This study explores the relationship between trade, economic uncertainty, innovation, and climate change in BRICS nations using Environmental Kuznets Curve framework. The research is driven by global imperative to address change, with predictions of a 2.7°C rise temperatures century’s end, surpassing Paris Agreement targets. uses data from 1995 2023, employing unit root tests, cointegration tests (Bayer-Hanck Maki), Augmented Autoregressive Distributed lagged nonlinear autoregressive distributed models, Fourier Toda-Yamamoto causality test capture long- short-term dynamics. results demonstrate that technological environmental innovations are critical reducing carbon emissions, reinforcing hypothesis growth initially worsens but eventually mitigates degradation. Conversely, economic, oil price uncertainties exacerbate challenges deterring investments sustainable practices clean technologies. A 10% increase policy trade uncertainty significantly raise emissions. In contrast, improvement TI EI reduces emphasizing indispensable role innovation fostering sustainability. To effectively combat align international goals, must integrate their policies within frameworks Sustainable Development Goals—notably SDG 7 Affordable Clean Energy), 9 (Industry, Innovation, Infrastructure), 13 (Climate Action). Reducing crucial for mobilizing green investments, while subsidies, tax incentives, strong regulatory should be prioritized accelerate innovation-driven decarbonization. Furthermore, enhanced cooperation, governance, adaptive instruments will enable navigate uncertainties, ensuring transition low-carbon economies development pathways.
