“…In developed countries, environmental pollution has been continuously increasing due to economic activities and energy consumption. Basar and Tosun (2021) [32], in a study of 28 OECD countries covering the years from 1995 to 2015, found an inverted U-shaped relationship between environmental degradation and income, indicating that a greater awareness of environmental pollution fluctuations leads to a crucial impact on sustainable development. In fact, natural resources have had a remarkable impact on accelerating economic performance.…”

“…Although there has been a number of studies on the impact of environmental pollution on economic growth, such as the studies by [26][27][28]32], the results of the studies are still inconsistent on the relationship between foreign direct investment, environmental pollution and economic growth. Most of the results show positive or negative effects of foreign direct investment and environmental pollution on economic growth.…”

The paper examines the impact of foreign direct investment and environmental pollution on economic growth in an emerging economy. We used annual data covering the period of 1986–2020 and the non-linear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) to analyze the positive and negative co-integrated variables, and our findings support the asymmetric relationship between foreign direct investment, environmental pollution and economic growth in both the short and long run, as well as a long-run relationship between environmental pollution and economic growth. A one-percent increase in environmental pollution leads to a positive change in economic performance by 0.662 percent. Adversely, a one-percent decrease in environmental pollution leads to a negative change in economic performance by 0.212 percent. Vietnam is an emerging market, and capital needs for economic activities are essential. However, the research results show that a disproportionate impact of foreign direct investment on economic growth is recorded in the long run, and a disproportionate impact of environmental pollution on the economy occurs in both the short and long term. Therefore, the government needs to have policies to attract foreign investment to develop a green and sustainable economy.

“…This link has been corroborated by a number of subsequent researches. For instance, Kibria et al (2021) found that better environmental performance is good for the economy of developing countries. The paper claims that better environmental conditions can lead to economic development by increasing tourism, luring foreign investment, and enhancing the health and well-being of local residents.…”

This study examines how Jordan's economic development is impacted by sustainable entrepreneurship (SE), with an emphasis on the mediating function of environmental performances (EP). To be more precise, we look at how Jordanian entrepreneurs' entrepreneurial leadership, culture, and mentality support SE and ultimately impact economic development through EP. We use data gathered from a sample of 250 Jordanian entrepreneurs to evaluate our assumptions using a Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling technique. According to our research, SE significantly and favourably influences EP, which in turn mediates the relationship between SE and economic development. Furthermore, the findings demonstrate that Jordanian entrepreneurs' entrepreneurial leadership, culture, and mentality all have a favourable impact on SE. Policymakers, business owners, and other stakeholders interested in advancing sustainable economic development in Jordan should take note of these results. Our research emphasises how critical it is to create an entrepreneurial ecosystem that supports entrepreneurs' sustainable leadership, culture, and way of thinking. Furthermore, our results imply that Jordan's economic development may benefit from initiatives to enhance EP, offering policymakers a possible way to encourage sustainable entrepreneurship. Overall, by analysing EP's mediating role in the relationship between SE and economic development, this study adds to the body of knowledge on sustainable entrepreneurship and offers insightful information to practitioners and policymakers who wish to support sustainable economic development in Jordan.

“…Through this process, the temperature of the planet, the atmosphere, oceans, and glaciers keep gradually increasing, reaching alarming numbers on a global scale. Environmental risks have been created by the economy and production expansion [1], including the emission of greenhouse gasses, waste management, and air, water, and soil pollution. In consequence, temporarily as well as permanently, exposure to those high levels of pollution can have a negative impact on health and increase the risk to develop diseases.…”

Nowadays, pollution keeps increasing due to social, political, economic, cultural, and environmental factors. Environmental awareness is close to zero because people prioritize personal activities. In that sense, the objective of this investigation is to raise environmental awareness in the population regarding the impact of pollution and support this through a mobile application (APP) that helps reduce pollution. The methodology used was the cascade, and through its phases, it was developed the prototype design of the mobile APP. The results obtained from this hybrid research were through a survey using ATLAS.ti 22; it concluded that environmental awareness begins at home and is taught by the parents, also it should be promoted from elementary school to high school and even in college. Moreover, in a survey, the users stated by 89% that the use of this mobile APP can help reduce the environmental impact. Also, in the validation through expert judgment, all the attributes were accepted with an average of 81%, that of functionality was the lowest, and the highest was that of consistency and integration with 83%. Finally, environmental education should be a priority policy in any country, as this will benefit its population.
