Stakeholder theory forms the basis for this paper, categorizing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) into internal and external social responsibility based on stakeholder profiles. Additionally, a dual-chain intermediary model has been devised to explore the mechanism of heterogeneous social responsibility for green innovation. This study draws the following conclusions based on data from 1743 listed manufacturing companies in China from 2011 to 2020: Generally, corporate social responsibility activities have a positive effect on green innovation. Internal corporate social responsibility activities promote green innovation of enterprises significantly, while external corporate social responsibility activities inhibit the green innovation of enterprises considerably. The influence mechanisms of heterogeneous social responsibility on green innovation are evidenced by the mediating roles of financing constraints and R&D expenditures. Following a series of robustness tests, the above conclusion remains sound. This study not only advances the theoretical research scope of corporate social responsibility from a subdivision framework but also offers a novel way of analyzing the impact of CSR on green innovation. Moreover, it serves as a theoretical resource and guidance for the green innovation practices of manufacturing enterprises.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100674,"journal":{"name":"Innovation and Green Development","volume":"4 1","pages":"Article 100197"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143148298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Today, companies consistently grapple with higher levels of potential supply chain risks in their sustainable operations due to the uncertainty of the business environment. It is imperative for firms to implement effective sustainable supply chain strategies to mitigate the adverse consequences of these potential risks on overall performance. This article delves into an inventory model designed to formulate supply chain policies in scenarios where the quantity of carbon emissions is unknown, along with potential risks. The aim of the study is to outline potential risks in the supply chain and investigate their impact, especially the effects of uncertain carbon data, on supply chain strategies. To address the uncertainty of carbon parameters throughout the system process, we apply fuzzification to all carbon factors, treating them as intuitionistic triangular fuzzy numbers. The model is then defuzzified using the signed distance method. And we propose a solution approach designed to determine green ecological policies. Numerical analysis is provided to validate the proposed model. The main numerical conclusions drawn from this study in the ecological context are threefold: (<em>i</em>) effective control of carbon emissions from supply chain processes can be achieved through strategic investments in green technologies, (ii) there exists a potential to minimize total cost, and (<em>iii</em>) an assessment of the effects of human errors during inspection on optimal strategies. The results underscore a crucial consideration for policymakers, emphasizing the need for exercising caution when contemplating flexibility in accounting for the quantity of carbon emissions during the development of environmental strategies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100674,"journal":{"name":"Innovation and Green Development","volume":"4 1","pages":"Article 100193"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143147728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unit root tests analyzed data stationarity, while the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) method investigated the variable nexus in the near and distant futures.

By redeploying money into big carbon abatement projects, a 1% economic expansion reduces CO<sub>2</sub> emissions by 0.04% in the near term and 0.05% in the long term. Multiple estimators, including the fully modified least squares (FMOLS), dynamic ordinary least squares (DOLS), and canonical cointegrating regression (CCR), were utilized to test the robustness of ARDL results.

In one, capital is defined as money. Adam Smith proposed the other, which considers capital as anything that has a role in the creation of wealth even if peripheral.

The concept of capitalism is generally derived from Smith's overinclusive concept of capital. This led to ambiguity and tautology. However, the pre-Smith concept of capital does not require the concept of capitalism. By removing non-monetary elements from the concept of capital, this study reaches an alternative ‘monetary society in the biosphere’ concept, which avoids confusion regarding monetary and non-monetary flows. This new concept integrates the economic and societal production in the biosphere. Furthermore, it recognizes that various monetary flows can be detrimental to ecological crises. Abandoning the concept of capitalism can contribute to conceptual precision in addressing the political economy of societal, environmental, and green development phenomena.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100674,"journal":{"name":"Innovation and Green Development","volume":"4 1","pages":"Article 100201"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143148596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
