The findings suggest that a national output of knowledge and technology creation makes a significant contribution to environmental innovation. However, this relationship changes as the focus shifts from internal knowledge and technology creation to external knowledge and technology dissemination. While the national knowledge and technology impact output also enhances innovation to a lesser degree, the diffusion of knowledge and technology does not uniformly improve corporate environmental innovation. We suggest that this relationship suggests the existence of a rebound effect‐like character, indicating that firms should not assume a linear or uniformly positive relationship between increased knowledge dissemination and environmental innovation outcomes. Additionally, the relationships are income‐specific. Furthermore, firms with ongoing renewable energy projects and environmental investments achieve significantly better environmental innovation performance. Sustainability and ESG‐related executive compensation have a considerable positive impact on environmental innovation. Country‐level energy intensity acts as a significant barrier to progress, whereas firm‐level biodiversity disclosure enhances energy intensity.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"158 6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145254519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite their rapid proliferation, the effects of ESG disclosure regulations remain contested. To provide a comprehensive assessment, this study conducted a bibliometric analysis and a meta‐analysis on previous studies. Following PRISMA guidelines, we selected 929 journal articles related to the impacts of ESG disclosure practices and regulations for a bibliometric analysis, and 32 studies with 411 effect sizes, quantifying the effects of ESG disclosure regulations for a meta‐analysis. Results indicate that the trend and spatial coverage of the publications align with the development of ESG disclosure practices. Second, the topic evolution reveals shifts from CSR reporting to ESG disclosure, from voluntary disclosure to strategic disclosure, and from qualitative to quantitative methods. Third, the meta‐analysis yields an average effect size of 0.06 for ESG disclosure regulations, confirming a modest but positive regulatory impact. Meta‐regression further shows that government‐issued mandates are less effective than exchange‐led rules, yet all regulations enhance corporate transparency and ESG performance. We recommend that future studies investigate the mechanisms of regulations, examine how they shape public perceptions, and delve into dynamics around stakeholder interaction.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"113 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145254518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explores the interplay between nonrenewable energy, green finance, eco‐innovation, green taxes, and green growth of G20 economies from 2002 to 2021. The evidence of cross‐sectional dependence and heterogeneity directed us to use the Method of Moments Quantile Regression (MMQR) estimation and robustness check performed through the Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS), Panel‐corrected Standard Error (PCSE), and Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FM‐OLS) techniques. The MMQR quantiles ranging from 0.20 to 0.80 revealed that eco‐innovation, green taxes, and green finance positively impact environmentally adjusted multifactor productivity–green growth. In contrast, nonrenewable energy has a negative impact. Furthermore, the interaction between nonrenewable energy and green finance has a significant positive impact on green growth. The findings suggest that G20 economies must integrate economic growth with environmental protection goals, encourage the implementation of efficient climate technologies, switch to renewable energy sources, and ensure that inclusive finance mechanisms are in place. It has been suggested that the detrimental effects of nonrenewable energy sources on ecosystems accelerate environmental deterioration and climate change. By contrast, green finance, green taxation, and sustainable innovation practices act as catalysts to address these challenges. The study recommends some key policy guidelines for the execution of SDGs 7, 9, 13, and COP 27 commitments.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145254687","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Knowledge exchange is assessed through training in knowledge management and internal knowledge transfer, both of which contribute to enhancing information quality. Based on a quantitative design, data were collected through 141 surveys and analysed using PLS‐SEM. The results reveal that training and internal transfer positively affect information quality, which in turn drives environmental practices. These practices are found to improve financial performance, with advanced management technologies acting as a partial mediator between information quality and sustainability outcomes. The findings contribute theoretically by integrating knowledge management, information quality, advanced technologies, environmental practices and financial performance into a comprehensive framework for SMEs in emerging economies. From a practical perspective, they provide guidance for managers and decision‐makers on prioritising knowledge‐sharing mechanisms and technological tools to foster sustainability. Thus, this study highlights that fostering knowledge‐sharing mechanisms, coupled with advanced technologies, is critical for SMEs seeking to align sustainability with financial success.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"85 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145254706","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Ghana, where industrial development coexists with environmental vulnerabilities, there is an essential need for a deliberate focus on sustainable business practices. This work explores the effects of green supply chain management (GSCM), green innovation (GNI), and sustainable dynamic capabilities (SDCs) moderated by governance quality (GVQ) on CEP among Ghana's manufacturing sector. Reinforced by the resource‐based and natural resource‐based views, this study constructs an integrated model to investigate the interactive effect of these variables. The firm‐level information and structural equation modeling outcomes show that GSCM affects CEP, especially when complemented with GNI and robust SDC. Further, quality governance increases the effectiveness of green practices through institutional congruence and environmental responsibility. The results support Ghanaian firms' need to build adaptive capacities, invest in eco‐innovation, and collaborate with regulatory agencies to attain sustainability goals. The study contributes to emerging economy studies by placing green performance mechanisms in sub‐Saharan Africa and offering actionable recommendations to industry leaders and policymakers. Finally, the study suggests ways businesses in Ghana and similar economies can align competitiveness with environmental stewardship to pursue a greener future.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"126 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145254699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the case of water, circular principles include sustainable management of water coming from primary sources, as well as water recovery from water‐based waste (as wastewater or grey water) and its reuse for various purposes. These activities can be successfully implemented by residents of European countries. This paper analyses attitudes, opinions and behaviours on the management of water resources in individual households in Poland. For this purpose, a survey questionnaire method was used, which was developed and distributed to adult citizens of the country. A total of 511 responses were received in April 2024. The results showed that almost all Polish consumers (96%) are aware of the importance of water saving, while 84% of respondents agree that saving water helps protect the environment, and 91% believe that it can reduce water bill costs. Despite this high awareness, not all respondents indicate the most easily accessible methods of saving water, such as drinking tap water, taking a shower instead of bathing or turning off the tap during everyday activities such as brushing teeth. The results of this study could be further used to shape future policies regarding the implementation of CE in the water sector. The most important area for regulation is the scope of educational activities within both formal and informal education, as well as the use of effective methods in social campaigns. Moreover, realising the European Commission's ambitious goals of CE transition requires further governmental support for individual households and setting a regulations or guidelines with clear benefits for stakeholders. Effective collaboration among Quadruple Helix representatives—business, science, government and society—is also essential to unlock the full potential of CE principles in this sector.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145181191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this context, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are at the forefront of this transition. Vision 2030, in particular with SMEs, aims to increase SMEs' contribution to the GDP to 35%. However, it is not possible without equipping SMEs with innovation, strategic thinking, and sustainability. To address these concerns, the objective of this study is to investigate the influence of innovation capability (IC), strategic orientation (SO) mediated by strategic renewal (SR). Driven by dynamic capability theory (DCT), the study also examined how internal resources (IC, SO) enable small firms to renew their strategies to achieve sustainable business performance (SP). To achieve the objective, a quantitative, three‐wave time‐lagged research strategy was deemed appropriate. The study employed purposive sampling, and data were collected from 211 SMEs located in Riyadh, Makkah, and Eastern Province of KSA through structured questionnaires in three intervals. The data was analyzed through structured equation modeling (SEM) through Smart PLS 4. The findings show that antecedents SO and IC significantly influence SR within SMEs, which in turn positively influence SP. In addition, it was found that SR mediates the relationship between IC and SO and SB. The study offers novel insights to theory through the extension of DCT to KSA‐based SMEs and outlines practical steps that SMEs and authorities need to integrate to achieve within SMEs to achieve Saudi Vision 2030.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"73 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145153615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
