“…The research emphasizes how important carbon pricing tools are for encouraging companies to cut their carbon emissions, such as carbon taxes and cap‐and‐trade programs (S. Wang & Kim, 2023; Q. Zou et al, 2022). Mechanisms for pricing carbon encourage companies to absorb the cost of their carbon emissions and take wise decisions to become carbon neutral (Sugimura et al, 2022; E. Wang, Nie, & Wang, 2023). Government initiatives that offer financial rewards for the use of renewable energy are crucial to the development of carbon‐neutral companies.…”

“…Carbon‐neutral firms are mostly driven by government laws that establish emissions reduction objectives and mandate that businesses disclose their carbon emissions. The governments provide a framework that incentivizes firms to monitor, manage, and lower their carbon emissions by establishing explicit objectives and reporting requirements (Sugimura et al, 2022; S. Wang & Kim, 2023). The development of carbon‐neutral enterprises is significantly impacted by government initiatives supporting green public procurement.…”

This study investigates the enhancement of technological and strategic enablers for carbon‐neutral businesses (CNB) through artificial intelligence (AI)‐driven business model innovation (AIDBMI). Drawing upon the insights gained from the literature review, the study employs structural equation modeling (partial least squares structural equation modeling [PLS‐SEM]) as the methodology to examine the relationships between AIDBMI, technological enablers, strategic enablers, and the attainment of carbon neutrality. The sample size consists of 326 small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) in the United States of America. The findings of this study affirm the significant positive relationships between AIDBMI and both technological and strategic enablers for CNB. The utilization of AI technologies proves to be instrumental in fostering the development and implementation of innovative business models that integrate sustainability practices and address environmental challenges. By leveraging AIDBMI, SMEs can harness technological advancements to adopt energy‐efficient processes, embrace renewable energy solutions, and implement effective carbon reduction strategies. Moreover, the study highlights the critical role of strategic enablers in driving the transition towards carbon neutrality. The alignment of sustainability goals with organizational strategies, stakeholder collaboration, and employee engagement emerge as pivotal factors in enabling SMEs to effectively utilize AIDBMI and leverage technological advancements to achieve carbon neutrality. The implications of this study contribute to the existing literature by highlighting the importance of technological and strategic enablers in creating CNB. By integrating AIDBMI, organizations can drive sustainable transformations, optimize their operations, and align their resource management with sustainable practices. These insights provide valuable guidance for SMEs, policymakers, and researchers seeking to foster sustainable practices, promote carbon neutrality, and contribute to the advancement of a low‐carbon economy.

“…Climate change policies should be initiated for proper risk management through expected utility theory and economic evaluation regarding expenditure incurred for disaster management relief and preventing calamities. Several measures advocated carbon neutral ports [24], [25] and carbon accumulation in forest areas [26], [27] as recommendable initiatives towards mitigating climate risk, including storing organic carbon existing in degraded soil at ports.…”

Purpose: The emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) have a critical influence on sustainable development and cause global warming, therefore contributing to climate change. National and international governments prioritize measures to mitigate global warming by funding green projects. The study aims to assess the relationship between global warming indicators (emission level of carbon dioxide, methane and greenhouse gas) and India’s climate change expenses incurred for employing renewable energy sources avenues nuclear power plants, efficient waste management, and transforming fuel-based technology with electricity-based to meet the extending electricity need. Methodology: The secondary data is taken from the World Bank to establish the causality between climate change expenditure and global warming indicators. The augmented dickey-fuller (unit root) test is performed to check the stationarity of the data series. Based on the validated data, the quantum of discharge of CO2, CH4 and GHGs is used to gauge the impact on climate change expenditure through Engle and Granger technique on e-views software. Findings: The results indicate a positive relationship between CO2, CH4, GHGs emissions and expenditure incurred to implement the mitigation strategies for climate change. The stationarity of the series is established at the first difference. Then regression model is determined through Engle-Granger Test, which depicts the model as a good fit with a 76% prediction level. Managerial implications: The study provides insight into the successive increase in climate change expenditure which requires the government to frame a more stringent policy to preserve the environment with proper implementation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
