Exploring the relationships among innovation, financial sector development and environmental pollution in selected industrialized countries

Muazu Ibrahim et al.

Summary: The Paris Climate Conference commits countries to reduce emissions for improved environmental quality through Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), but studies on the relationships among innovation, financial development, and pollution have produced mixed findings. While innovation lowers environmental pollution, beyond a certain threshold level, higher innovation exacerbates environmental degradation. Additionally, improved financial development increases pollution, but higher innovation dampens the environmental quality-reducing effect of finance.

Do innovation in environmental-related technologies asymmetrically affect carbon dioxide emissions in the United States?

Daleng Xin et al.

Summary: This research examines the cyclical impact of innovation in environmental-related technologies on CO2 emissions in the United States from 1990Q1 to 2016Q4. The findings indicate that positive shocks in innovation reduce emissions during expansion phases, while negative shocks increase emissions during contraction phases. Additionally, GDP and trade openness have a positive impact on emissions, and renewable energy consumption is an effective measure to mitigate emissions. It is recommended that government implement measures supporting innovation in environmental-related technologies during boom and recession periods to reduce CO2 emissions in the United States.

Summary: This study, based on balanced panel data of 30 Chinese provinces from 1987 to 2017, explores the impact of carbon emissions on economic growth through a panel smooth transition regression model. The empirical results reveal significant non-linear relationships between carbon emissions, financial development, openness, innovation, and economic growth. It also shows that carbon emissions attenuate the promoting effects of financial development and innovation on economic growth, with differences in impact between the northern and southern regions.
