“…Liu et al [ 11 ] also used the above methods to analyze the CCD between Nansi Lake catchment’s social economy and the water environment. Chen et al [ 12 ] studied the CCD of China’s carbon emissions and the ecological environment from 2009 to 2015 based on the CCD model and found that the two barely reached a dynamic balance. Based on remote sensing data, Ariken et al [ 13 ] analyzed the relationship between urbanization and eco-environment in China’s typical arid area of Yanqin Basin using the CCD model.…”

With rapid urbanization and industrialization, ecological disorders and environmental degradation have become serious, and the promotion of the coordinated development of the social economy and ecological environment is not only a pressing problem to be solved, but also an important step towards sustainable development. The coordinated development of the social economy and eco-environment is conducive to sustainable development. Considering the Chengdu–Chongqing urban agglomeration as a case study, this paper adopts panel data and establishes an index system to evaluate the coupling coordination degree (CCD) between the social economy and ecological environment based on the concept of high-quality development. From the perspective of time and space, the changing laws and characteristics of the CCD are analyzed, and the key factors affecting it are determined using regression analysis. The results show the following: (1) the CCD between the social economy and ecological environment of the Chengdu–Chongqing urban agglomeration presents a low level overall; (2) the CCD in more developed regions is significantly higher than that in less developed regions; thus, the characteristics of spatial differences are obvious; (3) the urbanization rate, ratio of actual use of foreign capital and GDP, ratio of total export-import volume and GDP, proportion of days with good air quality, and per capita public green space area are the main factors affecting the coordinated development of the social economy and ecological environment in the Chengdu–Chongqing urban agglomeration; and (4) Chongqing has obvious endogeneity. Finally, corresponding policy recommendations are provided aimed at promoting rapid economic development in the Chengdu–Chongqing urban agglomeration while focusing on environmental protection and promoting high-quality economic development with ecological environmental protection, while putting forward decision-making suggestions for high-quality development of urban agglomerations.

“…Some studies argue that renewable energy consumption enhances financial and economic development (Kemmler and Spreng 2007 ; Vasylieva et al 2019 ), whereas other extant literature found that FD spurs REC (Apergis et al 2020 ; Ji and Zhang 2019 ; Qamruzzaman and Jianguo 2020 ). Since developed countries work on zero-carbon emission plan (for example see Shahbaz et al 2020 ), emerging economies still account for a significant portion of GHG emissions worldwide (Apergis and Garzón 2020 ; Chen et al 2020 ). Therefore, we intend to highlight the relationship between FD and REC in emerging countries.…”

In the past three decades, the significance of large industrialized emerging economies has been highlighted. In terms of economic productivity and CO2 emissions, these markets play an important role in the global environment. Hence, to achieve global environmental needs, transition to renewable energy sources is essential. However, financial constraints along with geopolitical risks could act as possible barriers to the required transition. Thereby, in this paper, we aim to assess the impact of financial development and geopolitical risk on renewable energy consumption in emerging markets from 1996 to 2015. A two-step system GMM is tested, revealing a positive significant effect of financial development on transition to renewable energy. Moreover, contrary to the expected negative effect of geopolitical risk, our results reveal significant positive effect of geopolitical risk on renewable energy consumption. We highlight that the effects of both financial development and geopolitical risk are more pronounced in the long run. Finally, imperative policy implications are highlighted.

“…In detail, the coastal regions (Jiangsu and Shanghai) and Hubei had better performances mainly because of the adequate budget for both higher education and science popularization, large amount of output in higher education, large scale of science popularization venues, and high qualified stakeholders (such as teachers, students, personnel, and visitors) of the two systems. Such spatial differences appear in former studies; for instance, spatial differences exist when analyzing the coupling coordination relations between carbon emission and eco-environment [ 67 ]. (2) Though there were gaps compared with other places, the western regions (especially Guizhou) were accelerating their coordinated growth performances and were gradually reducing the gap.…”

This study aims to explore whether higher education and science popularization can achieve coordinated growth with temporal and spatial characteristics. Selecting the provincial regions of the Yangtze River Economic Belt in China as cases with data from the national statistics administrations (such as China Statistical Yearbook), this study uses entropy weight analysis, TOPSIS, GM(1,1) gray prediction methods and coupling coordination degree model to evaluate the coordinated growth status. The key findings are: (1) the annual budget per student, and the number of science and technology museums affect both systems more obviously; (2) the overall performances of science popularization fluctuate more obviously than those of higher education; (3) the coordinated growth performances of the two systems in most regions remain mild fluctuations and keep relatively stable coordinated status, however, temporal and spatial variation tendencies do exist among regions. Therefore, corresponding countermeasures should be implemented: generally, national authority needs to involve in coordination activities among regions; the regions with satisfactory coordinated growth performances need more creative approaches to maintain the coordinated growth interactions; the regions at the transitioning status need to prevent the grade decline and upgrade the performances; the regions with lagging performances need to stop the decline and reduce the gaps with others. The novelties include analyzing the coordinated growth interaction mechanism between the two, selecting indices to assess the abstract interaction mechanism precisely, proposing suggestions based on temporal and spatial comparisons of the coordinated growth performances, etc.
