“…Indeed, the human economic activity contributes to climate change and global warming. Some scientists claim that such changes are natural environmental variants, while others relate their primary causes to human activities (Eldowma et al , 2023). Consumption of nonrenewable fuels has had a significant influence on the environment: air pollution, acid rain and greenhouse effects.…”

Purpose This study aims to shed light on the experience of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in balancing three main pillars: the environmental criteria, the reduction of CO2 emissions and the economic growth. Based on the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) framework, it will assess the causal relationship between economic indicators such as gross domestic product (GDP) per capita, trade openness and energy use and environmental indicators such as CO2 emissions. Design/methodology/approach The analysis relies on a period of 40 years (1981–2020) where data is extracted from the World Bank database. This study uses the unit root test for time series stationarity, the optimal lag length test, the “Johansen” test for co-integration and the vector error correction model. Findings The paper concludes to two major findings. On a short-term basis, CO2 emissions and economic indicators are negatively correlated, whereas on a long-term basis, there is no association between CO2 emissions and economic indicators in the UAE. Research limitations/implications The research ends with important recommendations. It illustrates the importance of rationalizing the use of primary resources and the necessity to embrace successful and efficient policies in the energy production. Practical implications More specifically, UAE is urged to address the problem of CO2 emissions in the electricity sector and increase awareness of the use of environmentally friendly processes in the transport and industrial sectors. While setting their economic agendas, UAE are encouraged to meet environmental criteria and invest in renewable energy projects such as “Shams 1”, the largest solar power plant outside of Spain and the USA. Originality/value The current study is significant in its research on the environmental impact of economic development, trade openness and energy use policies in the UAE. It uses CO2 emissions as an environmental proxy and evaluates the environmental policies adopted in the UAE to reduce its impact.

“…So, when growth increases by 1 percent, the murabahah margin income for sharia mortgage products will increase by 3.1 percent, ceteris paribus. Economic growth is closely related to the level of consumption in society (Eldowma, Zhang, and Su 2023;Kahia et al 2022;Khmara and Kronenberg 2023), while murabahah financing is consumptive. If the level of consumption increases, economic growth will also increase, it is what makes economic growth has a positive effect on murabahah margin income (Khotijah 2020).…”

This study aims to analyze the effect of mergers, economic growth, the volume of murabaha financing, Bank Indonesia interest rates, and other variables on murabaha income on sharia pawn products at Bank Syariah Indonesia. The results of this study indicate that murabaha margin income is used as the dependent variable in this study. Dummy variables, five independent variables that have a large influence on the results, two independent variables that do not have a significant impact on the results, and one dummy variable are one of the seven independent variables used in this study. The model used is multiple linear regression with the OLS method. The findings of this study indicate that neither inflation nor fluctuations in the volume of murabaha financing have a significant effect on income from murabahah margins. Income from murabaha margins, however, is very negatively affected by non-performing financing (NPF) variables. Operating expenses as a percentage of operating income (BOPO), BI rate, growth, and aggregation dummy all have a large beneficial impact on earnings on murabahah margins.

“…The transportation framework covers passenger and freight transportation, with market flows through vehicle and vessel sales and retirements, kilometers and age as operating conditions. The energy interaction framework consists of energy losses (electricity, natural gas, etc., have some losses in transmission and storage) and power generation modules [28]. All fossil energy inputs are imported from the outer border.…”

The calculation of carbon emissions in the LEAP model is provided in the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC)'s sixth report [23][24][25][26][27][28]. The calculation of carbon emissions from energy consumption covers three main greenhouse gases including carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide [29].…”

Coordinating and controlling carbon and atmospheric pollutant emissions in industrial cities poses challenges, making it difficult to formulate effective environmental governance strategies in China. This study used the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) and Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning (LEAP) models, with a typical industrial city in the Sichuan Basin as the case study. Five emission reduction scenarios, one integration scenario, and one baseline scenario were set to quantitatively analyze the synergistic effect between carbon emissions and atmospheric pollutant emissions. The results indicate a high synergy between sulfur dioxide and greenhouse gases. For every one-point decrease in the Air Quality Composite Index (AQCI), the Industrial Restructuring Scenario (IR), Other Source Management Scenario (OSM), Transportation Energy Efficiency Improvement Scenario (TEEI), Industrial Energy Efficiency Improvement Scenario (IEEI), and Transportation Restructuring (TR) scenarios would require a reduction in carbon emissions by 56,492.79 kilotons, 39,850.45 kilotons, 34,027.5 kilotons, 22,356.58 kilotons, and 3243.33 kilotons, respectively. The results indicate that governance measures, such as improving transportation structure and upgrading industrial technologies, provide stronger support for simultaneous carbon emissions reductions and air quality improvement.
