Abstract
This study investigates the effects of eco-friendly finance and fossil fuel efficiency on sustainability in 15 OECD countries from 2005 to 2021. A 1% increase in the Fossil Fuels Efficiency Index improves sustainability by 0.32% in the short term and 0.45% in the long term. Similarly, a 1% rise in green finance enhances sustainability by 0.16% short-term and 0.40% long-term. Negative impacts on sustainability were found from the Energy Security Risk Index, Carbon Footprint, and Economic Growth, while higher Income Levels boost sustainability. Fossil fuel efficiency has a greater effect on sustainability than green finance, highlighting the need to prioritize fossil fuel efficiency. Recommendations include promoting renewable energy, digitizing green finance, customizing marketing strategies, importing energy efficiency technologies, and implementing efficient green tax rates.
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.
