Abstract
The current study focuses on describing global environmental issues and the initiatives of higher authorities to resolve them. Therefore, the current research considers emerging economies to demonstrate the vital environmental factors from 2005 to 2022. However, the second-generation estimation strategy was utilized to investigate the long-run impact of natural resources, information & communication technology (ICT), research & development expenditures (R&D), human capital, openness, and financial development on carbon emissions. This empirical research utilizes a series of novel estimators to investigate the study objectives. In light of the study's findings, ICT, R&D, and human capital are all important factors contributing to environmental quality. However, natural resources, openness, and financial development increase emissions. Under the investigated outcomes, this study proposes some green policies to attain a sustainable environment shortly.
期刊介绍：
Resources Policy is an international journal focused on the economics and policy aspects of mineral and fossil fuel extraction, production, and utilization. It targets individuals in academia, government, and industry. The journal seeks original research submissions analyzing public policy, economics, social science, geography, and finance in the fields of mining, non-fuel minerals, energy minerals, fossil fuels, and metals. Mineral economics topics covered include mineral market analysis, price analysis, project evaluation, mining and sustainable development, mineral resource rents, resource curse, mineral wealth and corruption, mineral taxation and regulation, strategic minerals and their supply, and the impact of mineral development on local communities and indigenous populations. The journal specifically excludes papers with agriculture, forestry, or fisheries as their primary focus.
