摘要

联合国可持续发展目标（sdg）本质上包括以保护和养护自然环境和人类生命为目标的气候行动。在确定存在性并解决相关的内质性问题之后，采用两步系统- gmm来检查潜在的宏观经济和社会经济因素以及六类治理指标和制度质量对选定183个国家二氧化碳（CO2）排放的影响，首先在单个面板中，然后在五个区域的细分面板中：撒哈拉以南非洲（SSA）；中东和北非（MENA）；欧洲,中亚（非洲经委会）；东,南亚和太平洋（ESAP）；和美国。重要的是，调查显示，治理指标（即腐败控制、政府有效性、政治稳定/恐怖主义、监管质量、法治、话语权和问责制）和制度质量在整体面板中加剧了碳排放，而这些影响因地区而不同。此外，金融发展和自然资源总量可以降低整体面板的二氧化碳排放，而农业和工业活动的增加值以及贸易开放程度、土地面积、信息和通信技术（ICT）、人口和人均收入对环境质量不利。在政策相关性方面，研究结果压倒性地指出，政策制定者注意到治理、制度质量和社会经济因素在推动各个地区（特别是组成国家）的环境可持续性目标方面的重要性。

Exploring the role of governance and institutional indicators in environmental degradation across global regions

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) essentially includes climate action that targets the protection and conservation of the natural environment and human lives. After establishing the existence and addressing the associated endogeneity problem, a two-step system-GMM was deployed to examine the influence of potential macroeconomic and socioeconomic factors alongside six categories of governance indicators and institutional quality on carbon dioxide (CO₂) emission across selected 183 countries, first in a single panel and then in sub-divided panels of five regions: Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA); Middle East and North Africa (MENA); Europe & Central Asia (ECA); East & South Asia and the Pacific (ESAP); and the America. Importantly, the investigation reveals that the governance indicators (i.e control of corruption, government effectiveness, political stability/terrorism, regulatory quality, rule of law, and voice and accountability) and institutional quality aggravate carbon emission in the overall panel while these influences vary across the region. Moreover, financial development and total natural resource are found to abate emission from CO₂ emission in the overall panel while value added from agricultural and industrial activities alongside trade openness, land area, information and communication technology (ICT), population, and income per capita are detrimental to environmental quality. On policy relevance, the results overwhelmingly point policymakers to the criticality of the aspects of governance, institution quality, and socioeconomic factors in driving environmental sustainability goals across respective regions and particularly in the comprising countries.

期刊介绍： Environmental Development provides a future oriented, pro-active, authoritative source of information and learning for researchers, postgraduate students, policymakers, and managers, and bridges the gap between fundamental research and the application in management and policy practices. It stimulates the exchange and coupling of traditional scientific knowledge on the environment, with the experiential knowledge among decision makers and other stakeholders and also connects natural sciences and social and behavioral sciences. Environmental Development includes and promotes scientific work from the non-western world, and also strengthens the collaboration between the developed and developing world. Further it links environmental research to broader issues of economic and social-cultural developments, and is intended to shorten the delays between research and publication, while ensuring thorough peer review. Environmental Development also creates a forum for transnational communication, discussion and global action. Environmental Development is open to a broad range of disciplines and authors. The journal welcomes, in particular, contributions from a younger generation of researchers, and papers expanding the frontiers of environmental sciences, pointing at new directions and innovative answers. All submissions to Environmental Development are reviewed using the general criteria of quality, originality, precision, importance of topic and insights, clarity of exposition, which are in keeping with the journal''s aims and scope.
