In order to build a firm foundation for competitiveness and prosperity, nations should maintain equilibrium with the three key aspects of the global energy trilemma, which are energy affordability, energy access, and ecological balance. In light of this, the purpose of this research was to investigate the impact that nuclear energy, technological advancements, renewable energy, non-renewable energy, and natural resources have had on carbon footprints. We selected the top five nuclear energy countries by consumption in the Asia Pacific region, including China, India, Japan, Pakistan, and South Korea. We devised an exhaustive and all-encompassing empirical inquiry and used contemporary econometric methods. The second-generation panel’s long-run cointegration promotes the idea of long-term relationships between the series. According to t...

It is the time of technological rapidness; especially after COVID-19, the word business has majorly transformed into a digital business. If an organization did not shift toward technology, it would be hard for it to even sustain in this rapid era. This study adopts the questionnaire after extensive literature review. A quantitative study was conducted among logistics SMEs in Pakistan to empirically verify what competitive advantages they are leading and gaining from information technology and how much information technology is important for their sustainability. The literature lacks information about the ways in which information technology has been integrated into logistics SMEs operating model, and more specifically, there is no information about IT valence, IT resource commitment, IT managerial commitment, and IT competency. The research is prima...

Agricultural insurance not only motivates farmers to adopt environmentally friendly production technology and enhances the effectiveness of production, but it also accomplishes the goal of lowering the number of chemicals that are put into the environment. This article investigates the dynamic relationship between agricultural insurance, air pollution, and agricultural green total factor productivity. To complete the aim, the authors used the panel auto-regressive distributed lags method (PMG method) and panel data from 50 states of the United States between 2005 and 2019. The empirical findings demonstrate a considerable co-integration and a cross-sectional reliance between agricultural insurance, air pollution, and agricultural green total factor production. Expanding agricultural insurance may boost agricultural green whole factor output but also exacerbate air pollution. However, significant air pollution does no...

In this sense, the diversity of energy sources can contribute to achieving both environmentally sustainable development. This study investigates the relationship between energy diversification and economic growth in Nordic nations by employing a unique measure of energy diversity. The Nonlinear Panel Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NPARDL) approach is utilized in the research, and it looks at data from 1998 through 2018. According to our results, these nations experience favorable economic growth when there is an increase in the long-term diversity of their energy sources. However, in the near term, they have seen negative economic development due to the diversification of their energy sources. According to these findings, energy diversification benefits Nordic econ...

After rigorous robust scrutiny, the research empirically endorses the claim that Corporate governance pursue investment decision, while curbing dividend payout, profoundly by questionable corporate governance; cash dividends are seldom given in the US. Sales Revenue (and the firm’s value) boost investments, while its positive influence on dividends is insignificant. All other tactics impede Dividend policy, most profoundly by the firm’s value. Taxable income impedes investment. On the other hand, the firm’s value and sales revenue do sig...
