“…The aforementioned explanation has suggested that LESCM practices would be economically as well as ecologically sustainable if implemented through green energy and technological re‐engineering. As enterprises will never sustain without financial prospects (Jahanshahi et al, 2021); therefore, LESCM‐oriented firms should consider three strategies: (a) combustion emissions reduction (Cadez et al, 2019; Jahanshahi et al, 2023), (b) process emissions reduction (Cadez et al, 2019; Jahanshahi et al, 2023), and (c) alliance (Sun & Zhong, 2023). Companies can minimize the use of coal‐sourced projects (e.g., electricity plants and heating plants in the manufacturing industry) through applying a combustion emissions reduction strategic policy.…”

“…However, profitability ratios like ROA and ROE are promising to explore a firm's financial strengths (Blažková & Dvouletý, 2017; Sitorus et al, 2021). Utilizing actual data from balance sheets unveils an organization's overall realistic financial performance, but in the case of measuring progressive changes by focusing on specific costs or investments in business, the OER should be measured too (Jahanshahi et al, 2021). The OER is highly beneficial to disclose a firm's efficiency on new investments or reinvestment concerns (Sitorus et al, 2021).…”

The adoption of environmentally and socially responsible practices, particularly in the form of low‐emission supply chain management (LESCM), has become increasingly vital for businesses globally. Renewable energy‐oriented LESCM practices are effective tools for proactive and leading manufacturing organizations, making them socially and environmentally responsible enterprises. In this context, our research focuses on understanding how LESCM implementation by companies may indirectly impact firms' financial success, through facilitating the adoption of blockchain technology (BT). Furthermore, we investigated the impact of the adoption of BT on reducing business operating costs and improving the business's environmental performance. To answer these research questions, we have used survey data from 189 Bangladeshi manufacturing firms, a developing country facing unique challenges and opportunities in the realm of sustainable business practices. Through rigorous analysis and robust statistical methods, we substantiate our hypotheses, shedding light on the positive associations between LESCM practices, BT adoption, financial performance, cost reduction, and environmental sustainability.

Save the green and live in the green should be the mottos of the modern high-tech world. Industry 4.0 introduces the most advanced automated technologies, but many of them cause high CO2 emissions around the globe that need strong compelling force because any catastrophic changes in the climate causes dreadful vandalization in the economy and society. This chapter discusses the climate-friendly economic and low-emission technological developments in the 4IR and 5IR by using the practical-sense mechanism. Reading this chapter will therefore increase the knowledge of blockchain technology (BT), artificial intelligence (AI), and climate finance in the low carbon economic sustainability. Furthermore, the proposed green development themes (i.e., hybrid green city and industrial layout, hybrid low emission agriculture farm) affirms the sustainable low carbon economic developments in the forthcoming Industry 5.0. Finally, the strategic recommendations will assist in developing the low carbon economy with the perfection of BT, AI, and global climate finance in the world.

Amalgamating green energy and green technologies can ensure sustainable green supply chain management practices through boosting organizational performance and reducing carbon footprint around the world. The traditional supply chain system is one of the major sources for global emissions. To establish eco-friendly, cost-effective, and sustainable GSCM, this chapter proposes a renewable energy and low carbon technology-based green supply chain simulation design. Adopting GSCS will ensure maximum utilization of resources but significantly reduce lead-times and climate emissions. The GSCS defines the green techniques for executing RE plants without leverage risk. An exploratory approach has been applied to demonstrate green policies with realistic evidence, which will help to gain knowledge of successful implementation of GSC policies to intensify financial growth and green environmental safety. In addition, executable eco-friendly directions chronicled in this chapter would also be beneficial for the firms including SMEs, especially those in the embryonic stage of GSCM practices.
