“…Data on per capita GDP were from Anaman (2018) Regression analysis as a statistical method was used to examine the relations between dependent variable and the three variables of interest. The use of regression for the study is consistent with existing literature in the area of environmental economics and international trade that have demonstrated an empirical relationship between the macroeconomy and environmental resource deployment (refer to works such as Grossman and Krueger, 1991;Selden and Song, 1994;Kohler M. 2013, Mizra et.al., 2017Mikaylov et al 2018, Khan andUllah, 2019). The variables used in the econometric analysis are described in Table 1.…”

“…The pursuit of economic growth worldwide by human beings has resulted in rapid urbanization, industrialization and agricultural operations that are responsible for environmental degradation and pollution (Kijima et al, 2010). Reductions in environmental degradation and pollution are a sine qua non for sustainable development of any economy (Khan and Ullah, 2019). Among the greatest challenges facing humanity in the 21st Century is the extensive environmental degradation and pollution induced by increasing greenhouse gas emissions.…”

“…Among the greatest challenges facing humanity in the 21st Century is the extensive environmental degradation and pollution induced by increasing greenhouse gas emissions. Existing literature, (for example, those produced by Khan and Ullah 2019;Haigh, 2017;Li and Yang, 2016;Ramachandra et al 2015;Abas and Khan, 2014;Gholipour, 2013;Karl and Trenberth, 2003), suggests that that greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions underpin global warming and climate change. GHGs comprise; carbon dioxide, ozone, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapour.…”

“…GHGs comprise; carbon dioxide, ozone, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapour. However, carbon dioxide emission is the principal GHG and a major cause for climate change and global warming (Khan and Ullah, 2019). The concentration of carbon dioxide emissions increased by 42% between 1990 and 2014 (Aung et al, 2017).…”

This paper examines the effects of per capita gross domestic product (GDP), trade openness, and urbanization on the total carbon dioxide emissions of Ghana using time-series annual data from 1960 to 2014. The 55-year period, from 1960 to 2014, covered economic transformation of Ghana from a low-income agrarian country to a lower-middle income country. The analysis used the autoregressive distributed lag method of co-integration. The results showed that per capita GDP, trade openness, and urbanization all significantly influenced both long-run and short-run levels of carbon dioxide emissions in Ghana. However, increased trade openness led to reduced total emissions, while rising per capita GDP and increased urbanization both increased total emissions albeit at different intensity levels.

“…Hence, the manufacturing sector uses large amounts of natural resources in their products and works with inefficient production processes [5,6]. This intensification is leading to global warming, climate change and environmental deprivation [2,7]. This shows that sustainable performance is not only required to be successful in the global market, but also essential for survival, conservation of the environment and improving the quality of life of society [8].…”

Scholars have investigated the direct linkage between manager's age and sustainable corporate performance, however, the mixed results and conflicting findings on the nature of the relationship demand further explanation through the missing constructs. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to examine the mediating role of sustainable entrepreneurial orientation in the manager's age and sustainable performance. This study develops a conceptual link by using a dynamic capabilities approach and upper echelon perspective, indicating that younger managers can adopt a more holistic approach towards sustainable practices which can enhance the environmental, social and economic performance of firms. This implies that the relationship between manager's age and sustainable performance can be explained through sustainable entrepreneurial orientation (SEO) which can play a key role in setting organizational direction towards sustainable development and achieving sustainable business performance. This study contributes to the literature by examining the role of SEO in the relationship between the manager's age and sustainable performance. This research will help practitioners recognize the importance of minimizing environmental and social problems generating due to organizational production activities. This will lead to profit generation as well as value creation for nature and the local community.

The global economies continue to observe a consistent increase in carbon emissions, making it problematic to achieve the Paris agreement goals on the environmental variations. To notify strategies, and mitigate carbon emissions, it is important to recognize the issues that affect on it. Considring this view, this study explores the impact of autocracy, democracy, and the globalization process on the carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions for 74 developing countries during the period from 1990 to 2016 by using the stochastic impacts by regression on population, affluence, and technology (STIRPAT) model framework. The results based on a robust system generalized method of moments (SYS-GMM) indicate that autocracy, political globalization, economic growth, financial development, energy consumption, and gross fixed capital formation significantly enhance environmental degradation, while democracy, economic, social, and overall globalization significantly reduce it. Additionally, the results are robust to various robustness checks, which confirm the consistency of the findings. This study also offers various useful policy implications to the governments; regulatory authority and policymakers in general, and specifically analyzed developing countries for promoting environmental sustainability.
