“…With data from Chinese A-share businesses, Wu et al showed that green-technology innovation boosted green total-factor productivity, but that there was a threshold effect-of-technology gap, and that green-technology innovation inhibited green total factor-productivity below the threshold [ 29 ]. Wang et al, Song et al, and Jiakui et al all concluded through empirical research that technological innovation significantly increased green total-factor productivity [ 30 , 31 , 32 ]. Santra found innovation technology had a sound impact on the sustainable performance of BRICS countries and that green technological innovation helped firms and countries to reduce their energy absorption and CO 2 emissions [ 33 ].…”

This paper employs the SBM-DDF method to measure the index of green total-factor productivity (GTFP), based on the panel data of 279 prefecture-level cities in China from 2007 to 2019, and constructs a spatial Durbin model (SDM) and a threshold effect to empirically test the effects of dual environmental-regulations and green technological innovation on GTFP. The results are as follows: (1) the SDM supports a nonlinear contribution of dual environmental-regulations spillover to GTFP. The relationship between formal environmental-regulation and GTFP is an inverted U-shape, while a U-shaped nonlinear relationship is found between informal environmental regulation and GTFP. (2) Green technology innovation has a significant negative moderating effect on the process of dual environmental-regulations affecting GTFP in local regions, but a positive moderating effect on informal environmental regulation in neighboring regions. (3) There is a significant green technology innovation threshold effect of dual environmental-regulations affecting GTFP. Specifically, the promotion effect of dual environmental-regulations on GFFP gradually increases as the level of green technology innovation increases.

“…41 Increasing resource depletion which is demonstrated by resource reduction is not just a problem in Pakistan, in fact, it is a worldwide phenomenon. 42 Just as food products must be safe for consumer usage, the proper storage, transfer, and utilization of vaccines is crucial for health. 43 Moreover, this dilemma is aggravated by hoarding of vaccines by developed countries of the world, automatically creating a shortage in chain supply.…”

Background In Pakistan, 74 children out of 1000 lose their lives annually due to diarrheal illness. This commentary addresses the contributing factors aggravating this growing dilemma and the effect of a simultaneous rise in COVID‐19 cases in a healthcare system ready to collapse, along with providing recommendations to alleviate the problems causing this spike in diarrheal cases. Methods This narrative review has emphasized the causes of the spike in pediatric diarrheal illnesses in Pakistan as well as recommendations offered to lessen the burden by incorporating recent literature ( n = 68). Tactics to tackle COVID‐19 alongside diarrheal illnesses were also included. Pakistan was chosen to be assessed due to its high burden of child and infant mortality due to preventable causes. Results The provision of safe drinking water, the proper use of Integrated Management of Newborn and Childhood Illnesses (IMNCI), adequate awareness of the benefits of breastfeeding, the use of correct rehydration techniques such as Oral Rehydration Therapy, and the crucial implementation of the EPI vaccination schedule can curb this increase in diarrheal cases. Conclusion The increased prevalence of diarrheal diseases amongst the pediatric population of Pakistan can be attributed largely due to unsanitary drinking water. Emphasis must be put in the provision of safe drinking water. During the first years of life, children can be kept safe from deadly pathogens just by adequate breastfeeding. IMNCI and EPI must also be properly implemented.

“…For the long-term development of the manufacturing industry, the concept of green growth is more appropriate [25]. From the reality of the development of manufacturing industry, the power source of green growth of manufacturing industry mainly comes from three aspects [26][27][28]. The first is the demand for energy conservation and emission reduction.…”

“…Yeh Jiahuey examined total-factor green growth performance, including the energy efficiency and carbon shadow price of China's chemical sector [5]. Due to the improvement of DEA methods, Chen investigated the direct effect and spillover effect between green efficiency and Co 2 emission abatement policy [28]. Song developed a directional distance function model to explore the regional evaluation of green output in China [29].…”

Green Growth or Gray Growth: Measuring Green Growth Efficiency of the Manufacturing Industry in China

The manufacturing industry has created a rapid evolution of the economy, but it has also negatively impacted the ecosystem. A better understanding of the manufacturing industry in green growth is crucial to achieving the sustainability goals in China’s high-quality development stage and is better for identifying the impact of scale effect or technological effect in EKC. In this research, a super-efficiency slacks-based measure model is proposed to evaluate the green growth efficiency of 27 manufacturing industries, and a Luenberger index method is adopted to interpret the driving forces of efficiency. The results demonstrate that green growth efficiency in the manufacturing industry shows a fluctuating upward trend, and more than 60% of the industries are in a gray growth state. The growth of green growth efficiency mainly depends on the pulling effect of technological dividends brought by technological progress, rather than the improvement of technical efficiency. As the industry heterogeneity is analyzed, technology-intensive industries still dominate in the process of manufacturing industry and have shown a significant upward trend. Finally, some suggestions are proposed from the perspective of the government and enterprises.
