With rising concerns about environmental sustainability, examining the economic-environmental nexus is essential. This study investigates relationship between economic growth (GDP), renewable energy consumption (RENC), urbanization (URB), and foreign direct investment (FDI) with Norway’s ecological footprint from 1990 to 2023. Guided by Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis, we aim understand how these factors influence impact over time. Using an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model, captures both short- long-term effects of variables on footprint, model stability confirmed through Cumulative Sum Squares (CUSUM) test. The findings reveal a U-shaped EKC pattern, where initial reduces but beyond certain GDP threshold, pressures increase. Renewable shown lower significantly, supporting sustainability goals. Conversely, FDI associated increased impact, potentially due resource-intensive projects. These insights underscore need for balanced policies that harmonize development preservation. Policymakers are encouraged foster green FDI, prioritize investments, implement sustainable urban planning maintain trajectory toward sustainability.

A detailed analysis of non-financial and sustainability reporting may indicate companies’ attention to responsibility regarding environmental, social, economic aspects. This article investigates the correlation between environmental performance as a metric financial performance. Simultaneously, it identifies categories information provided by companies implicit with which they address protection issues. Data were collected from reports 668 in Romania for 2019–2021 period. The study uses, on one hand, diagnostic method (the grid method) determine (environmental score) companies. On other uses linear regression model test (including tolerance identify multicollinearity, forward variable selection, backward Durbin-Watson test). study’s findings underscore positive In particular, high turnover advanced age company are associated
