This study examines the role of energy consumption and institutional quality in determining ecological footprints. The results demonstrate a significant positive relationship between energy consumption and ecological footprints in the first quarter, but a negative relationship in the fourth quarter. Additionally, the study finds that institutional quality has a positive impact on ecological footprints. These findings suggest that specific institutional strategies and efficient energy consumption can contribute to improving ecological footprints.
In this study, we examine the role of energy consumption and institutional quality on ecological footprints. We employed a robust econometric estimation technique on a panel sample of 21 African countries between 2002 and 2019. Our results showed that energy consumption is significantly and positively related to the first quarter's ecological footprint but negatively related to the fourth quarter's ecological footprint. Similarly, we discovered that institutional quality improves ecological footprints. Our results imply that an improved ecological footprint is possible when there are specific institutional strategies and energy.
