Asymmetric effect of structural change and renewable energy consumption on carbon emissions: designing an SDG framework for Turkey

Tomiwa Sunday Adebayo et al.

Summary: The study finds that structural change can improve environmental quality in Turkey and has a nonlinear impact on CO2 emissions. However, Turkey's current economic progress trajectory is unsustainable due to its reliance on fossil fuel-based energy consumption. The government should encourage investment in the service sector to maintain environmental sustainability.

Factors influencing embodied carbon emissions of China's building sector: An analysis based on extended STIRPAT modeling

Chen Zhu et al.

Summary: This study examines the influencing factors of embodied carbon emissions (EC) in China's building sector and provides guidance for the country's greenhouse gas mitigation strategy. The results show that building construction area and indirect emission intensity have the greatest impact on EC and indirect EC, while total factor productivity and energy intensity also play important roles. Additionally, technical factors have both positive and negative effects, and rebound effects exist in the building construction sector. Therefore, controlling building scale, reducing building material supplyside emission, improving technology, and preventing rebound are key to alleviating building EC.

Trade Facilitation, Institutional Quality, and Sustainable Environment: Renewed Evidence from Sub-Saharan African Countries

Ridwan L. Ibrahim et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of trade facilitation and institutions on sustainable environment in Sub-Saharan African countries. The findings show that trade facilitation indicators are positively correlated with environmental sustainability, while institutional quality weakens it. In addition, the adverse effects of trade facilitation measures and institutional quality are more severe from the consumption angle than production. Therefore, establishing a well-harmonized trade facilitation procedure, supported by a sound institutional environment and a well-implemented national environmental protection law, is key to addressing the environmental issues in Africa.

Asymmetric inter-linkages between green technology innovation and consumption-based carbon emissions in BRICS countries using quantile-on-quantile framework

Asif Razzaq et al.

Summary: The study reveals that in BRICS countries, green technology innovation has a significant emission-reducing effect at high emission quantiles, while it is weakly or positively correlated with carbon emissions at low emission quantiles. Conversely, high carbon emissions instigate green innovation across medium to high emission quantiles. The results suggest that when a country has higher emissions levels, green technology innovation can help mitigate carbon emissions.
