“…The initial shock from the increase in new confirmed COVID-19 cases has the most direct and profound impact on investors. Security scares, triggered by media reports of new confirmed cases and combined with the heavy blow of negative oil prices news, continue to fuel the psychological expectations of energy investors ( Narayan, 2020 ) and therefore influence oil market volatility( Xiao and Wang, 2021 ). However, the shift in the positive and negative correlation between jumps and the pandemic on different time-frequency domains (especially under the influence of the Chinese pandemic, which has recurred several times) suggests that investors can adapt to changes in new confirmed cases over time.…”

“…As an institutional factor, EPU has significant impacts on the business environment for economic activity. Many papers have confirmed the adverse impacts of EPU on the real economy (Gu et al 2021;Li et al 2020), firm investment (Liu et al 2020;Suh and Yang 2021;Zhou et al 2021), innovation activities (Guan et al 2021;He et al 2020), financial markets (Danisman et al 2020;Phan et al 2021), and energy markets (Xiao and Wang 2021;Zhang and Yan 2020). Based on the close link between economic activity and environmental quality, several authors discuss the potential outcomes of EPU on environmental quality (Jiang et al 2019;Yu et al 2021).…”

This study explores the environmental impacts of economic policy uncertainty, economic complexity, renewable energy, and energy intensity on the countries in the Group of Seven (G7) countries. To this end, the study employs fully modified ordinary least squares and a fixed effects model with Driscoll and Kraay, Rev Econ Stat 80:549-560, (1998) robust standard errors and a panel dataset from 1997 to 2015. The findings demonstrate a long-term relationship between the variables of interest and carbon dioxide emissions and the ecological footprint. Specifically, high energy intensity increases environmental pollution while high economic policy uncertainty and renewable energy reduces environmental degradation. The environmental Kuznet curve of economic complexity and environmental quality holds for G7 countries. Moreover, economic policy uncertainty strongly moderates the environmental effect of renewable energy, economic complexity, and energy intensity. Specifically, although economic policy uncertainty amplifies the beneficial environmental effects of renewable energy and economic complexity, it enlarges the harmful effect of energy intensity on environmental quality. These empirical outcomes allow us to draw useful implications for policy makers to mitigate the environmental degradation.

“…Generally, economic policy uncertainty impacts several aspects of the business environment in a country. The impact on the real economy could be adverse [109,110] on financial markets [111][112][113] or energy markets [114,115].…”

The present paper offers a view regarding the challenge induced in the environment by the productive structure of countries. Economic complexity, which links the productive structure of a country with its knowledge, labour, and sophistication, seems to raise new challenges for the environment’s preservation and quality. The debate on this linkage in existing literature is at a beginning, stimulating the mind of scholars, researchers, and policy makers. The relationship between economic complexity and the environment is multi-faced and creates unimagined challenges for humanity in its path toward social and economic progress. The paper reviews the main dimensions of the linkage between economic complexity and the environment, including moderating factors of this connection as they are reported in the existing literature.
