“…Many empirical studies analyze the determinants of environmental quality (Cetin 2016 ; Cetin et al 2018a ; Chien et al 2021a , 2022 ; Sun et al 2021 , 2022 ; Farooq et al 2021 ; Anwar et al 2021a , b , 2022a , b ; Habiba et al 2022 ; Çetin et al 2022 ; Liu et al 2022 ). Recent studies have focused on various determinants of environmental quality such as renewable energy (Sharif et al 2020 ), tourism (Wangzhou et al 2022 ), natural resources (Safdar et al 2022 ), political instability (Sohail et al 2022 ), globalization (Karaduman 2022 ), income inequality (Ozturk et al 2021 ), insurance sector (Li et al 2022 ), agriculture sector (Çetin et al 2020 ), information and communication technology (Chien et al 2021b ), urbanization (Cetin et al 2018b ).…”

The environmental pollution caused by climate change and global warming pose significant risks to health. This raises the question how environmental disturbances can affect health expenditures. Based on this, this study examines the asymmetric effect of environmental quality on health expenditures in Türkiye using the non-linear ARDL (NARDL) model for the 1975–2019 period. In addition to environmental quality, natural resources, economic growth, and trade openness variables are also included in the health expenditure model. The findings support the existence of an asymmetric cointegration relationship between the series. The findings also indicate that positive environmental pollution shocks affect health expenditures positively in the long run, while negative environmental pollution shocks do not have a statistically significant effect on health expenditures. Positive and negative natural resource shocks affect health expenditures negatively in the long run. Despite the effect of positive economic growth shocks on health expenditures is positive but statistically insignificant, the effect of negative economic growth shocks is positive and significant. Besides, positive trade openness shocks have a negative effect on health expenditures and negative trade openness shocks have a positive effect. The findings prove that the steps to be taken to protect the environment in the current period will increase the effectiveness of health expenditures in the future. This situation has a guiding feature for policy-makers in terms of policy decisions.

“…Several studies use long-term cointegration techniques to examine the benefits of renewable energy on environmental mitigation at the level of groups of economies; for example, (Sulaiman et al, 2020;Sun et al, 2022a;Sun et al, 2022b) in 27 EU economies find that increasing biomass energy use in the production process can reduce EFP. (Bekun et al, 2019) find a long-term equilibrium relationship in the EU, suggesting that REC reduces EFP while GDP and natural resource income increase EFP.…”

Heterogeneous anthropogenic and insufficient development strategies have caused an international compromise between sustainable growth and environmental deterioration. Environmental concerns have necessitated rules and human capital to protect the global ecosystem. Literature is ambiguous on the usefulness of environmental rules in reducing environmental deterioration. This study examines the impact of environmental regulations and education as a proxy for human capital in Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Turkey (MINT) countries’ ecological footprints between 1990 and 2020. The econometric research shows that present environmental restrictions in MINT countries are unsuccessful at reducing their ecological footprints. Energy consumption and trade-openness also increase ecological footprints. The MINT countries panel also confirms the Environmental Kuznets Curve idea. The country-specific findings show that energy use silently harmed the environment in MINT nations, whereas environmental legislation, economic growth, and trade-openness had diverse effects. These findings suggest that in order for MINT nations to achieve environmental sustainability, they should strengthen and enforce environmental regulations; adopt policies that promote sustainable economic growth; reduce their reliance on fossil-fuels; improve quality education and awareness; and actively engage in sustainable trading activities.

“…Several studies employ time series techniques to examine the benefit of renewable energy in environmental mitigation. For example, for the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) countries, Sun et al ( 2022 ) find that it is possible to reduce carbon dioxide emissions if biomass energy is increased in production processes. Sohail et al ( 2022 ) show evidence that political stability increases clean energy consumption in Pakistan and contributes to improving environmental quality in the short term.…”

This paper analyzes the impact of international oil price uncertainty on the different economic sectors (primary, secondary, and tertiary) in Mexico in the period 1993:1–2020:4 through a bivariate structural vector autoregressive (VAR) model with a generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) in mean to capture the impact of oil volatility on economic growth at the sectoral level of economic activity. The results show that the uncertainty of the international price of oil has a differentiated effect on the different sectors of economic activity in Mexico since it does not influence the primary sector; it negatively impacts the secondary sector, and there is mixed evidence in the tertiary sector. Additionally, evidence is provided that both positive and negative shocks to the international oil price have asymmetric effects at the sectoral level in Mexico. The results highlight the need to implement public policies, at the country level, that help mitigate the effect of uncertainty in the oil market and promote economic stability at the sector level.
