Juxtaposing the environmental consequences of different environment-related technological innovations: The significance of establishing good democratic governance

Mitigating environmental pollution in China: Unlocking the potential for high-quality innovation

“…Gao et al. 64 indicated that climate change mitigation-related innovations improve environmental conditions while more environmental management-related innovations exert environmental quality-inhibiting impacts among BRICS countries. Das et al.…”

Green finance pilot reform and corporate green innovation

“…Green finance has the dual characteristics of financial resource allocation and environmental regulation (Tolliver et al, 2021). Many studies have discussed the environmental governance function and effect of green finance (e.g., Dai et al, 2022;Umar and Safi, 2023;Gao et al, 2023;Tian et al, 2023). Among them, the economic effects of green financial policies related to this paper on the microenterprise level have mostly been reflected in research on green Frontiers in Environmental Science frontiersin.org credit policies.…”

“…Moreover, some prior studies focus on the effect of green finance on green innovation in heavily polluting enterprises (e.g., Han et al, 2022;Dong et al, 2022;Yan et al, 2022;Zhao et al, 2022;Zhang and Li, 2022;Liu and Wang, 2023;Xu et al, 2023). And other prior studies simply consider the overall effect of green finance on green innovation in all enterprises (Dai et al, 2022;Yu et al, 2021;Huang et al, 2022a;Yang et al, 2022;Irfan et al, 2022;Tian et al, 2023;Zhang et al, 2023;Gao et al, 2023;Xu, 2023). For example, Yang et al (2022) show that external environmental regulation can impact the relationship between green finance and green innovation.…”

“…For example, Han et al (2022) show that green finance can positively increase green innovation in heavily polluting enterprises. Furthermore, other prior studies simply consider the overall effect of green finance on green innovation in all enterprises (Dai et al, 2022;Yu et al, 2021;Huang et al, 2022a;Zhang et al, 2023;Gao et al, 2023;Xu, 2023) and neglect that green finance may be suitable for specific enterprises so that the research results may be biased. As a result, fewer studies focus on the effect of green finance on green innovation from green enterprises.…”

“…Secondly, other prior studies mainly show that green finance can impact green innovation. (e.g., Wang, 2022;Dai et al, 2022;Yu et al, 2021;Huang et al, 2022a;Wang K. H. et al, 2022;Huang et al, 2022a;Irfan et al, 2022;Wang et al, 2022b;Yang et al, 2022;Huang et al, 2022b;Zhang et al, 2023;Gao et al, 2023;Xu, 2023;Tian et al, 2023). For example, Yang et al (2022) show that external environmental regulation can impact the relationship between green finance and green innovation.…”
