Synthesizing urbanization and carbon emissions in Africa: how viable is environmental sustainability amid the quest for economic growth in a globalized world?

Savas Erdogan et al.

Summary: Global emission statistics show that Africa has low carbon emissions. However, the rising economic growth driven by urbanization and globalization has raised concerns about environmental risks in Africa. This study examines the impacts of urbanization and energy portfolios on the environment in 15 selected African countries. The results suggest that urbanization, economic globalization, and income levels contribute to environmental degradation, with fossil energy consumption having the most detrimental impact. The study supports the EKC conjecture and highlights the importance of investing in green energy technologies to achieve sustainable development goals.

Beyond the environmental Kuznets curve: Do combined impacts of air transport and rail transport matter for environmental sustainability amidst energy use in E7 economies?

Bright Akwasi Gyamfi et al.

Summary: This study explores the combined effect of rail, air transportation, and urbanization on the environment, and finds evidence of the EKC phenomenon in E7 economies. It reveals that conventional energy and air transport have negative impacts on environmental quality, while rail transport and urbanization contribute positively to improving environmental quality. Therefore, policies that promote environmental sustainability are needed in the economic growth trajectory of the E7 economies.

Accounting for the combined impacts of natural resources rent, income level, and energy consumption on environmental quality of G7 economies: a panel quantile regression approach

Bright Akwasi Gyamfi et al.

Summary: This study utilizes multiple empirical methods to investigate the impact of natural resource rents and energy consumption on the environmental quality of G7 economies, revealing a significant positive relationship between natural resource rents and pollution, as well as adverse and significant effects of renewable energy consumption and positive effects of fossil fuel energy consumption on carbon dioxide emissions. Additionally, income levels combined with fossil fuel use strongly affect environmental degradation, while natural resource rents Granger cause clean energy consumption within the G7 countries.

Retrospecting on resource abundance in leading oil-producing African countries: how valid is the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis in a sectoral composition framework?

Stephen Taiwo Onifade

Summary: Policymakers and authorities in Africa are concerned about economic growth and stability but need to address increasing environmental degradation challenges. This study examines the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis and the factors contributing to CO2 emissions in oil-producing African economies. The findings suggest that fossil energy consumption, income levels, and the shares of the manufacturing sector significantly increase environmental pollution. The study recommends diversification of energy portfolios and economic diversification to promote environmental sustainability.

Does it take international integration of natural resources to ascend the ladder of environmental quality in the newly industrialized countries?

Tomiwa Sunday Adebayo et al.

Summary: This study analyzes the data of ten newly industrialized countries (NICs) between 1990 and 2018. The results show that natural resource rent is detrimental to the global goal of carbon neutrality. However, globalization can moderate this effect, and there is a positive correlation between economic growth and environmental quality. Additionally, renewable energy utilization and globalization independently promote environmental quality in these countries.

Energy transition and environmental quality prospects in leading emerging economies: The role of environmental-related technological innovation

Stephen Taiwo Onifade et al.

Summary: The commitment of emerging countries in clean energy development and carbon-neutral goals is crucial. This study examines the role of environmental-related technological innovations (ERT) in achieving climate neutrality in the E7 countries and finds that increasing ERT can significantly reduce carbon emissions. However, these countries still need to make more efforts to transition to cleaner energy sources.

Energy innovations and pathway to carbon neutrality in Finland

Andrew Adewale Alola et al.

Summary: Finland is determined to maintain its status as a low-carbon and clean energy technology country by phasing out coal energy and reducing the utilization of fossil oil by half by 2030. This study analyzes the environmental effects of Finland's disaggregated energy mix with and without environmental technologies. The results show that the deployment of environmental technologies in coal energy development leads to significant environmental costs, while innovations in oil, natural gas, and nuclear energy sources can provide environmental benefits. Without environmental technologies, the utilization of disaggregated energy forms will continue to be an environmental challenge. The study also finds that the independent deployment of environmental technologies can mitigate carbon emissions in the long run.

Linking institutional quality to environmental sustainability

Atif Jahanger et al.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of democracy, autocracy, and globalization on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in developing countries. The findings show that democracy and renewable energy can alleviate environmental pressure, while financial development and globalization increase environmental damage. The interaction between democracy and globalization reduces pollution levels, and the dampening effect of autocracy and globalization has a similar impact on environmental damage. Additionally, an inverted U-shaped environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis is verified across developing countries.

Environmental aspect of energy transition and urbanization in the OPEC member states

Stephen Taiwo Onifade et al.

Summary: The study finds that fossil fuel utilization has a significant positive impact on environmental degradation in the selected OPEC countries, while the negative impact of renewable energy utilization and urbanization on carbon dioxide emissions is insignificant in both the short and long run. The current energy transition policy of OPEC states is not sufficient for environmental sustainability, and the Environmental Kuznets Curve is not valid in the panel of OPEC countries. The research also shows a uni-directional causality from income level to renewable energy consumption, and urbanization strongly Granger causes fossil fuel use and CO2 emissions among the countries.
