This article employs a Panel Mean Group Autoregressive Distributed Lag (PMG-ARDL) approach to investigate the interaction between carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), fossil fuel, renewable energy consumption, trade, and their collective impact on life expectancy within the BRICS nations. The research reveals compelling findings. Notably, CO2 emissions and trade openness exhibit negative and statistically significant impact on life expectancy.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study analyzes how renewable energy usage in Indonesia is influenced by globalization, economic growth, and environmental quality, using time-series data from 1990 to 2020 and advanced statistical methods.
  • - Findings suggest that globalization positively impacts renewable energy through increased trade, foreign direct investment, and the adoption of energy-efficient technologies, while financial development and economic growth also play significant roles.
  • - The research emphasizes the need for supportive policies that enhance financial and environmental development by investing in renewable energy initiatives.

Unquestionably, the industrial revolution of the twenty-first century contributes to global warming. Excessive amounts of carbon emissions into the atmosphere are responsible for global warming. Therefore, this research aims to assess the impact of GDP, green energy consumption, population, trade openness, and democracy on CO2 emissions in four selected South Asian countries from 1990 to 2019.

This research investigates the effects of tourism, GDP per capita, renewable energy, energy intensity, urbanization, and population on the environment in 40 Asian countries. Data from 1995 to 2019 are used in this analysis. Slope heterogeneity (SH), cross-sectional dependency (CSD), and the combination of level and first differenced stationary are all addressed using a new cross-sectionally autoregressive distributed lag (CS-ARDL) model in this work.

Within the European Union (EU), the majority of countries are considered developed, and the level of economic activity is rising. As a result, carbon dioxide emissions have increased. If the European Union wants to maintain long-term, sustainable growth, it must act quickly to find solutions to pollution.

This study examines the effects of health expenditure, energy consumption, CO emissions, population size, and income on health outcomes in 46 Asian nations between 1997 and 2019. Cross-sectional dependence (CSD) and slope heterogeneity (SH) tests are utilized due to the close linkages between Asian nations as a result of commerce, tourism, religion, and international agreements. The research uses unit root and cointegration tests of the second generation after validating CSD and SH issues.

Purpose: This study employed the stochastic implications of regression on population, affluence, and technology (STIRPAT) methodology between 1972 and 2021. The main goal of this research is to look at how FDI, population growth, industrialization, and education affect the environment in Argentina.

Methodology: The F-bound test and Johansen cointegration test are employed in this research to determine if there is a co-integration association among the variables.

The European Union (EU) is extremely concerned about the environmental harm caused by rising CO emissions and other factors. The EU has to uncover factors that decrease pollution before it's too late to achieve long-term sustainable growth. The paper applies the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis to examine the dynamic connection between GDP, energy use, energy intensity, research and development (R&D), and CO emissions.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the environmental impacts of industrialization, urbanization, and renewable energy in the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) from 1972 to 2021, highlighting the negative effects of increased resource demands.
  • Using advanced statistical methods, the research indicates that while industrialization and urbanization drive environmental degradation, the adoption of renewable energy can mitigate these effects.
  • It emphasizes the need for sustainable policies that promote renewable energy and environmentally friendly practices to balance economic growth and environmental protection in the diverse BRICS context.

Article Synopsis
  • This study examines the relationship between energy consumption, population growth, and economic development in Bangladesh to assess the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) and its effect on carbon dioxide emissions from 1971 to 2020.
  • Utilizing an autoregressive distributed lag model, the research finds a long-term EKC pattern, indicating that as economic growth increases, carbon emissions initially rise but eventually decline after reaching a certain economic threshold.
  • The findings suggest that while energy consumption and economic development negatively impact the environment—especially through fossil fuels—transitioning to renewable energy sources like solar and biodiesel is essential for improving environmental quality in Bangladesh.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to food safety and hygiene among fish farmers and food handlers in Noakhali, Bangladesh, using face-to-face interviews with 100 participants.
  • Most respondents recognized the need for hygiene training and expressed willingness to participate during their free time, with significant emphasis on separating raw and prepared foods.
  • A strong correlation was found between knowledge, attitudes, and practices among the participants, indicating the need for a comprehensive training program to enhance food safety awareness and reduce health risks.
