“…The ability of a company to quickly respond and impact environmental issues that are sustainable depends on ENST (Adomako et al 2021 ). Senior managers are in charge of the company’s resources, personnel, and standards for the environment (Nureen et al 2023b ). The past study demonstrates that ENST moderates the relationship between GSCM and FRPR.…”

The increasing significance of green supply chain management in developing countries’ manufacturing sector is primarily driven by the deteriorating environment, signified by decreasing raw material resources, a surplus of waste sites, and rising pollution levels. Green supply chain management can provide competitiveness while boosting a company’s environmental sustainability if implemented effectively. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the effect of green supply chain management practices on the firm performance of the manufacturing sector. This research aims to determine the moderating effect of collaborative capability and the mediating influence of eco-technological innovation and environmental strategy on the relationship between green supply chain management and firm performance. Five hundred fifty survey questionnaires are gathered from manufacturing firms of China. Utilizing structural equation modeling (SEM), the proposed hypotheses have been analyzed and investigated. The results show that green supply chain management indirectly affects the firm performance. Moreover, green supply chain management is positively related to environmental strategy and eco-technological innovation, which effectively enhance firm performance. The findings further indicate that environmental strategy and eco-technological innovation significantly mediate the association between green supply chain management and firm performance. Furthermore, collaborative capability significantly and positively moderates the relationship between green supply chain management and firm performance. As a result, the adoption of these factors influences firm performance positively and will assist the manufacturing sector in meeting diverse yet radically changing requirements and overcoming obstacles originating from a dynamic global business environment. Consequently, it is of the utmost importance that businesses must utilize green practices with relatively low environmental impacts. Companies can considerably maintain and improve their firm performance by reducing the environmental impact if they have effective collaborative capabilities, eco-technological innovation, and environmental strategies.

“…This pressure forces enterprises to actively invest in the research and development of green processes and products to meet the market demand for environmentally-friendly consumption (Wang et al, 2022b). The challenges posed by increased costs and environmental resource constraints further heighten enterprises' sense of crisis in the green technology revolution, prompting them to embrace their main responsibility and actively promote corporate green innovation (Yuan and Cao, 2022;Nureen et al, 2023). Enterprises must proactively respond to national principles of green and low-carbon development to maintain their competitive advantage in the market.…”

PurposePromoting enterprises' green innovation is vital to realize the sustainable growth of cities and environmental protection and the rise of urban housing prices might affect the green innovation of enterprises to a certain extent. This study aims to discuss the aforementioned objective.Design/methodology/approachBased on the data of listed companies and urban housing prices of main cities in China from 2011 to 2019, this paper examines the impact of housing prices on enterprises' green innovation and analyzes the mechanism of rising housing prices on enterprises' green innovation.FindingsThe rise of urban housing prices can significantly promote the quality of green innovation of enterprises, but it has no significant impact on the quantity of green innovation. The heterogeneity test results show that the rising house prices have a more significant role in promoting the green innovation of non-state-owned enterprises, enterprises listed on the main board, enterprises in the central and western regions, and enterprises in non-first-tier cities. The mechanism research finds that the rise of urban housing prices has a financing relief effect and cost-pushing effect on the green innovation of enterprises.Originality/valueFirstly, it thoroughly examines the influence of housing prices on corporate green innovation. Second, it explores the differential impact of housing prices on enterprises' green innovation based on variations among enterprises and regions, offering valuable insights for the government to formulate proper policy. Lastly, it elucidates the influencing mechanism of housing prices on enterprise green innovation from the perspectives of corporate financing and costs, providing empirical support for enterprises to appropriately perceive the opportunities and challenges posed by rising housing prices and actively promote green innovation.

“…As green governance practices deepen within firms, it has become increasingly evident that numerous internal and external factors influence the implementation of environmental disclosure. These factors are pivotal in green corporate governance and social responsibility (Nureen et al, 2023). Consequently, researchers globally have delved into the determinants of firms' environmental disclosures.…”

Environmental concerns garner global attention, with firms in developing nations responsible for addressing these issues effectively. Environmental disclosure is a prominent aspect of this responsibility, which has become crucial to corporate practice in these nations. This study explores directors’ foreign experience’s influence on a firm’s environmental information disclosure. Data from listed firms in China, a developing country, are employed for this analysis. Using an empirical model, we investigate the proposed hypotheses. The results indicate a trend among firms to favor directors with foreign experience, given their apparent inclination toward environmental information disclosure. However, it’s been observed that corporate governance tends to weaken the positive correlation between hiring directors with foreign experience and environmental information disclosure. This positive association is particularly evident in firms with weak financing constraints, those subjected to strict environmental regulations, and state-owned enterprises. Our study offers valuable insights for managers and decision-makers in developing countries, particularly regarding managing corporate social responsibility and facilitating green transitions in response to environmental regulations. It aids top-tier management in bolstering their internal strategies to optimize their contribution to environmental sustainability. This study, therefore, presents a valuable exploration into the role of directors with foreign experience in influencing firms’ environmental information disclosure.
