Technological Innovation and Climate Change Mitigation: Effects and Transmission ChannelsAbstract: The main objective of our study is to examine the relationship between technological innovation and environmental sustainability in the case of MENA countries during the period 1990 to 2019. In order to explicitly integrate the possible cross-sectional dependencies problem, we use panel cointegration methods. The outcome indicates the rejection of the EKC hypothesis because these countries have not yet reached the threshold of GDP. Yet, financial development and technological innovation do not have direct effects on CO2 emissions. Also, foreign direct investment and energy consumption have negative impacts on environmental quality. However, the interaction between technological innovation on the one hand and energy consumption, financial development, trade, and foreign direct investment on the other hand can reduce CO2 emissions. Consequently, policymakers should not only develop financial and technological systems but also develop more technological goods traded and enhance renewable energy use,

Is export quality a viable option for sustainable development paths of Asian countries?,
Muge Manga, Orhan Cengiz and Mehmet Destek, from University Library of Munich, Germany (2022)
Keywords: This paper investigates the role of export quality in climate action goal of the sustainable development goals in emerging Asian countries. For this purpose, the empirical model that observes the impact of real GDP, energy use and export quality index on carbon emissions is constructed and is analyzed by ARDL bound test approach for the period from 1970 to 2014. We also include the square of real GDP as independent variable to observe the existency of Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis which implies the parabolic relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation. The findings show that increase in export quality leads to a fall in CO2 emissions for China and India. In contrast, the effect of increasing export quality increases CO2 emissions in Thailand and the Philippines. Lastly, our asymmetric causality results show that the positive shocks of export quality causes positive shocks of CO2 emissions in Thailand and Indonesia. Furthermore, we found that positive export quality shocks causes negative carbon emission shocks in India while negative export quality shocks causes positive carbon emissions shocks in China. We also confirm the inverted U-shaped EKC hypothesis in China and Thailand.
