“…The association between economic growth and CO 2 emissions is much contextual in the ongoing debate on climate change (Balsalobre-Lorente et al 2021 ; Murshed et al 2020 ; Razzaq et al 2021 ). While India has experienced steady progress in per capita GDP by 2.7 times over 1990–2019, per capita CO 2 emissions have also increased by 1.6 times over the same timeline.…”

The paradigm of sustainable tourism policy implications aims to prioritize the decoupling association between tourism development and environmental deterioration. The study revisits the dynamic associations among carbon dioxide emissions, economic growth, international tourism, education, renewable energy consumption, and gross capital formation for the case of India through the lens of the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis framework. The long-run dynamics among the variables confirm the inverted U-shaped environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis for India. The regression findings affirm that higher international tourist arrivals, renewable energy use, and gross capital formation curb emissions in the long run. Besides, the coefficient of the interaction term between tourist arrivals and capital formation is evidenced to be positive implying capital formation has not been conducive in the pathway of sustainable tourism practices. On the other hand, the negative coefficient of the interaction term between education index and renewable energy consumption unveils the importance of educational advancement in the pathway of renewable energy penetration to thrive environmental sustainability. This study concludes with some policy suggestions to be incorporated within the existing ecological and energy approaches that may aid India in practicing the smooth functioning of low-carbon tourism models.

“…Smoke-free kitchens should be established to promote health and well-being while reducing carbon emissions. Green technology innovation improves the economy and reduces the CO2 emissions (Razzaq et al, 2021). Furthermore, 61.5% of respondents stated that they do not own any electric cooling appliances.…”

Pakistan has experienced energy poverty, as most of the people live in rural areas. Poor people are stereotyped as collecting the firewood and using the unclean energy sources to meet their residential energy needs. As a result, respondents in the provinces with the highest rates of energy poverty set a high priority on this research. Structured interviews were used to conduct the research in rural parts of Punjab and Sindh provinces. Due to the apparent country’s large population and rapid industrialization, conventional energy sources cannot meet the country’s present energy needs. Results revealed that energy poverty in rural areas had exposed the residents to security problems such as health dangers, fire accidents, time poverty, financial poverty, illiteracy, and other issues at various levels of severity. As a result, alternative energy sources must be explored. This research aims to determine the best renewable energy choice for Pakistan’s rural areas. In terms of pricing, life duration, operation, and maintenance costs, the results show that solar energy is the best renewable energy source for Pakistan. The key barriers that continue to promote energy poverty have been identified. Finally, the study suggests policy recommendation for public and private sectors to overcome energy related barriers to alleviate energy poverty in rural areas by utilizing maximum solar energy.

“…In the time-series data, it is crucial to ensure the integration order of the series before applying the QARDL model for estimations (Razzaq et al, 2021c;Song et al, 2021). Therefore, this study conducted the ZA (Zivot-Andrew) and ADF (Augmented Dickey-Fuller test) unit root tests to determine whether the time series data are stationary.…”

Amid rising industrialization and economic progress, China has shown exponential growth in energy and fossil fuel consumption; therefore, it faces great global concern and widespread criticism for energy and fuel conservation to reduce fuel-related emissions. In addition, the recent spread of COVID-19 instigates the impact of environmental pollution, exaggerates the virus intensity, and lowers people’s immunity due to poor air quality. Therefore, this study explored the role of green energy efficiency and climate technologies in achieving carbon neutrality in China using an advanced quantile autoregressive distributed lag (QARDL) framework. The results indicated that green energy efficiency and climate technologies significantly reduce environmental pollution across all quantiles in the long run. In contrast, urbanization enhances environmental degradation at lower and higher emissions quantiles, while trade only promotes environmental pollution at lower quantiles. These findings suggested using alternative energy sources and carbon-reducing technologies to ensure a sustainable environment.
