Summary: China's urbanization and urban sprawl have had a significant impact on CO2 emissions, increasing overall carbon emissions through CO2 emissions from industrial, construction, residential consumption, and transportation sectors. Based on these findings, specific suggestions for China's carbon reduction and low-carbon development were made.

Summary: This study examines the impact of energy consumption, economic development, urbanization, and energy consumption on carbon emissions using panel cointegration tests and pooled mean group (PMG-ARDL) approaches. The results reveal that urbanization has no significant effect on environmental quality, while energy usage significantly increases environmental harm. Further research indicates that environmental distortion is a long-term consequence of economic expansion. The responsibility of achieving a green and clean environment lies with government officials and politicians, who should prioritize appropriate energy management, urban planning, and pollution reduction without impeding economic growth.

Summary: This study examines the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI), urbanization, and CO2 emissions in China from 1996 to 2018 using the dynamic panel threshold approach. The findings suggest that urbanization leads to an increase in CO2 emissions, but this effect diminishes after a certain level of foreign capital is reached. Additionally, the development of technology, finance, and government sectors can promote urbanization and reduce CO2 emissions. These results have significant policy implications for China's urban planning and environmental policies.

Summary: This study employs a comparative approach to examine the relationships among economic growth, energy consumption, urbanization, trade, and CO2 emissions in South and East Asian countries. The findings indicate long-term connections between these variables, with nonrenewable energy consumption and economic growth increasing CO2 emissions in South Asia, while trade and renewable energy consumption reducing CO2 emissions in the short term. Similar patterns are observed in East Asia, with economic growth, nonrenewable energy consumption, trade, and urbanization increasing CO2 emissions, and renewable energy consumption reducing them. The study also identifies long-term bidirectional causation between CO2 emissions, renewable energy use, economic growth, and trade.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between economic growth and ecological footprint for 16 European countries from 1990 to 2020. The empirical analysis reveals some correlations, including a negative correlation between foreign direct investment and ecological footprint, and an inverted U-shaped curve between GDP and ecological footprint, supporting the environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis. Furthermore, renewable energy is found to have a negative correlation with ecological footprint, while energy structure has a positive correlation.

Summary: Considering the resource curse assumption, the environmental aspects of resource utilization pose significant dangers to human existence. This study analyzes data from MENA countries with abundant oil and gas reserves to examine the contribution of natural resources to environmental quality. The analysis reveals that natural resource utilization has a negative impact on the environment, which decreases until the 50th percentile and then starts rising again towards the upper percentiles. Primary energy utilization and globalization worsen and improve the environmental quantile, particularly in the upper percentiles, while income confirms an inverted U-shaped hypothesis across all percentiles. Furthermore, there is a significant one-way directional causality from natural resources, economic expansion, primary energy use, and globalization to carbon emissions levels. Therefore, the study provides environmentally friendly resource utilization policies for MENA economies and other resource-rich countries.

Summary: This study further expands the existing knowledge on the role of economic complexity in the environment and sustainable development debate by examining its effect on environmental degradation. The results show that income facilitates economic complexity in mitigating ecological footprint, CO2 emissions, N2O emissions, and greenhouse gas emissions. The study also finds a nonlinear relationship between income and the impact of economic complexity on environmental degradation, indicating that economic complexity initially increases these environmental indicators but gradually reduces them as income rises.

Summary: The present study empirically analyzes the impact of energy consumption, such as oil, gas, coal, gross domestic product, and urbanization, on environmental degradation in the form of CO2 emissions. The study aims to identify the long-run and short-run interrelationships among the six key variables. The investigation is based on time-series yearly data for the period of 1980-2020. The results conclude that overall energy consumption and GDP have a unidirectional causality with CO2 emissions in the long and short-run, and urbanization has a negative impact in the short term due to industrialization.

This paper fills the gap by evaluating the spillover effects of RE and R&D on CO2 emissions in a global panel of 54 countries from 2003 to 2017. The findings indicate that economic growth increases CO2 emissions at a decreasing rate, and that global R&D investment led to a reduction in CO2 emissions through both RE and economic growth channels.

Summary: This study investigates the unbalanced link between CO2 emissions, foreign direct investment (FDI), and economic growth in Malaysia from 1980 to 2019. Using the non-linear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) technique, we find a significant asymmetry between FDI, CO2 emissions, and GDP in Malaysia. Long-term negative FDI adjustments have a stronger negative impact on economic growth compared to short-term fluctuations. Positive changes in CO2 emissions have a stronger long-term effect on economic growth than negative shocks. Malaysian policymakers should understand the dynamic relationship between FDI, CO2 emissions, and GDP to develop appropriate economic and environmental policies for sustainable development and a safer environment.

Summary: This study examines the effects of financial inclusion, agricultural innovation, trade, and forest rent on carbon dioxide emissions, economic growth, and ecological footprint in Pakistan from 1970 to 2017 using symmetric and asymmetric cointegration approaches and linear and non-linear autoregressive distributive lag techniques. The results show no long-term cointegration among the variables in symmetric analysis, but significant effects of agricultural innovation on economic growth in the long and short term in asymmetric analysis. Positive shocks lead to increases in carbon dioxide emissions, while negative shocks lead to decreases. Short-term ecological footprint is influenced by positive shocks in agricultural innovation and forest rent.

Therefore, the conditional influence of human capital in the urbanization-CO2 emission nexus has policy implications for sustainable development.

Summary: This study examines the effects of trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) on CO2 emissions in GCC countries using a spatial Durbin model. The results show that economic growth follows an environmental Kuznets curve in both territory-based CO2 (TCO2) and consumption-based CO2 (CCO2) models. Exports have a positive direct effect on TCO2 emissions but a negative effect on CCO2 emissions, indicating that exports raise domestic emissions while helping reduce emissions in neighboring countries. Imports have positive effects on both TCO2 and CCO2 emissions. FDI has negative effects on CCO2 emissions and positive effects on TCO2 emissions. The study suggests promoting financial market development, FDI, and exports to have positive ecological effects in the GCC countries.

The results show the presence of an environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) in lower emission quantiles, but not in higher quantiles. Renewable energy serves as a solution for reducing CO2 emissions in lower and upper quantiles, while the relationship is insignificant in medium quantiles. Public-private partnership investment exhibits similar relationships with CO2 emissions across all quantiles. Therefore, it is recommended that the government invest more resources in renewable energy development and increase public-private partnership investment in environmentally friendly sectors and industries.

Spatial econometric models reveal that increasing mature RE technologies such as geothermal and hydropower can lower CO2 emissions, while more advanced technologies like solar, wind, and bioenergy either increase or have no impact on CO2 emissions. Increasing RE sources as a whole result in a reduction of CO2 emissions in the sample countries.
