Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 14Unravelling the Moderating Roles of Environmental Regulations on the Impact of Foreign Direct Investment on Environmental Sustainability(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, 2025-02) Ehigiamusoe, Kizito Uyi; Chen, Danqing; Dogan, Eyup; Binsaeed, Rima H.In the era of economic globalization, China attracts significant foreign direct investment (FDI) to accelerate economic prosperity. FDI inflows could have ramifications on environmental degradation (ED) despite the enactment of different environmental regulations (ERs) such as market-incentive, command-and-control as well as informal regulations. Though some studies have shown that FDI and ED have significant relationship, the moderating roles of different ERs on the environmental impact of FDI has not been empirically unraveled. This study fills this research gap by analyzing the direct impact of FDI on ED (i.e., carbon dioxide emissions, ecological footprint) using the provincial panel data. Second, it unravels the moderating roles of different ERs on the environmental impact of FDI in the provinces and regions. The results indicate that FDI directly mitigates ED, verifying the pollution halo hypothesis while ERs directly alleviate ED in China. However, the interaction between FDI and ERs do not alleviate ED in China albeit regional heterogeneity exist. The economic implication is that FDI is not a channel through which ERs enhance environmental sustainability in China. This study recommends some policy options arising from the findings.Article Citation - Scopus: 24Analyzing the Nexus Between Environmental Sustainability and Clean Energy for the USA(Springer, 2024-03-22) Dogan, Eyup; Si Mohammed, Kamel; Khan, Zeeshan Anis; BinSaeed, Rima Hassan; Mohammed, Kamel SiEnvironmental sustainability is a key target to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs). However, achieving these targets needs tools to pave the way for achieving SDGs and COP28 targets. Therefore, the primary objective of the present study is to examine the significance of clean energy, research and development spending, technological innovation, income, and human capital in achieving environmental sustainability in the USA from 1990 to 2022. The study employed time series econometric methods to estimate the empirical results. The study confirmed the long-run cointegrating relationship among CO<inf>2</inf> emissions, human capital, income, R&D, technological innovation, and clean energy. The results are statistically significant in the short run except for R&D expenditures. In the long run, the study found that income and human capital contribute to further aggravating the environment via increasing CO<inf>2</inf> emissions. However, R&D expenditures, technological innovation, and clean energy help to promote environmental sustainability by limiting carbon emissions. The study recommends investment in technological innovation, clean energy, and increasing R&D expenditures to achieve environmental sustainability in the USA. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
