“…A plethora of empirical works also interrogate the effect of EG on the environment. For instance, in focusing on 25 African countries, Opoku-Mensah et al (2021) use the Stochastic impacts by regression on population, affluence, and technology model to examine the effect of EG on carbon emissions. Their evidence based on 25 African countries suggests that EG will increase CO2 emissions in Africa by 17%.…”

“…The main theory are built by (Grossman and Krueger, 1991) the same as tourism sector, the channel is energy use by shipping, fuel and storage. Since the paper published, many empirical research has been done in this such as in France (Mutascu, 2018), Kuwait (Wasti and Zaidi, 2020), Nigeria (Zubair et al, 2020), and China (Zhang et al, 2017) and group of countries namely Africa (Dauda et al, 2021;Opoku-Mensah et al, 2021;Tugcu, 2014), selected countries (Khan et al, 2020;Khan and Ahmad, 2021;Kim et al, 2019;Muhammad et al, 2020), Europe (Du et al, 2020;Kasman and Duman, 2015), newly industrialized countries (Zhang et al, 2017), South Asia (Rahman et al, 2020), Mena Countries (Omri et al, 2015) The effect of trade on CO 2 emission are non-linear relationship confirm that there is Environmental Kuznet Curve (EKC) (Du et al, 2020;Shahbaz et al, 2017). According to (Du et al, 2020) when income level is lower than 16.883,45 US$, the increasing of international trade also increase the CO 2 emission.…”

This study aims to analyze the influence of foreign direct investment, tourism, exports, and imports on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the High-Income State, Upper-Middle Income, and Lower-Middle-Middle Income in Asia during the period of 2010 to 2019. This study uses the Poisson Pseudo-Maximum Likelihood (PPML) method. The results of this study indicate that Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis (EKC) is valid in the country of High Income and Upper-Middle Income. In addition, there is a non-linear relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI), tourism, Export, and imports on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The interaction variables, which are a foreign direct investment with tourism and foreign direct investment with Export. Each of them is reducing carbon dioxide emissions only in high-income countries. Meanwhile, the interaction variables between foreign direct investment and imports reduce carbon dioxide emissions in high-income countries. However, it increases the carbon dioxide emissions in the upper-middle-income country

“…The rapid increase in ecological footprint and increasing global warming has reached a tipping code red point for humanity (Opoku‐Mensah et al, 2021) and requires drastic measures to avert further terrible warming. As production and construction activities are responsible for many environmental problems (Tu & Wu, 2021), implementing green concepts could help mitigate and achieve the broader goal of sustainable production.…”

The United Nations has described global warming as reaching a code red point for humanity and requires drastic measures to avert further terrible warming. Green procurement practices have been recognized as sustainable measures towards a low carbon trajectory, yet its implementation is still at the embryonic stage mainly due to weaknesses in organizational creativity skills and learning strategies. For the first time, we provide a theoretical framework that links stakeholder pressure, organizational learning, green procurement, and environmental performance within a public–private partnership environment. The analysis in this study is performed using the partial least square structural equation modelling and a sample of 295 respondents from Ghanaian infrastructure projects. Overall, we have found that exploratory and exploitative learning are necessary to translate stakeholder pressure to implement green procurement practices effectively. Also, firms that yield to stakeholder pressure develop their creative skills and increase their environmental performance. We recommend that managers should consider frequent market research and consistent stakeholder dialogue to create a culture of learning towards green practice implementation and promote environmental sustainability.
