“…The concept of sustainable development has developed significantly in the last few years. Initially, social and economic development was seen to be constrained by the environment (Bandyopadhyay et al, 2022). This concept developed towards a concept where economic, environmental, and social dimensions were all pillars of the same house and needed equal attention.…”

“…This concept developed towards a concept where economic, environmental, and social dimensions were all pillars of the same house and needed equal attention. The most current concept is that a dynamic interplay between the social, economic, and environmental dimensions of human activity needs to maintain a healthy environment, promote and invest in sustainable livelihoods, and foster an economic growth environment (Bandyopadhyay et al, 2022). This balance implies that none of the sustainability dimensions can be promoted without establishing trade-offs with the two others.…”

“…This balance implies that none of the sustainability dimensions can be promoted without establishing trade-offs with the two others. The three dimensions of sustainability and how they should be balanced are the subject of much debate across academic and professional disciplines, and the public and private sectors environment (Bandyopadhyay et al, 2022).…”

Hydropower comes with a lot of inestimable values. It is indubitably an eco-systemfriendly resource that causes no harm to the natural state of the environment. This creates a better alternative to the heat energy radiating the earth. It is a cost-efficient source of energy and it offers unique opportunities to have cost-efficient tourism sector management in the EU region centers. The primary objective of this research is to determine the effect of hydropower output on tourism sustainability in the European Union (EU 27) states from 1990 to 2021. The autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) was adopted for this study. Findings from this study show that a significant increase in the tourism sector growth can occur in EU14 emerging economies using hydropower output and economic growth variables than in EU13 emerging economies. In addition, among other variables captured in this study, population density and good governance were seen to have a higher level of contribution to tourism sector growth in EU14 emerging economies than in EU13 emerging economies. It was also found that a significant increase in the tourism sector growth could be achieved in the EU13 emerging economies due to the high consumption of fossil fuels than in EU14 emerging economies. This finding implies that the EU27 could achieve sustainability in their tourism sector significantly through the substitution of fossil fuel output with hydropower. This will foster the attainment of Energy Union aims by 2030. It is also a good way to combat climate change and environmental pollution. Using the pooled mean group (PMG), mean group (MG), and dynamic fixed effect (DFE) methods, the projected calculations were seen to be valid. The study, therefore, recommended that EU27 countries should prioritize hydropower in their pursuit of renewable energy production as this will help them to achieve sustainability in their tourism sector and become secure in their energy need now and in the future time. The government, Politicians, and all other concerned stakeholders in the EU27 countries should strive towards replacing fossil fuels with hydropower. This will help to ensure sustainability in their tourism sector and there will be security in the energy sector of these EU27 Countries.

(Yuping et al, Nov. 2021 ), for instance, find that, RE consumption and globalization tended to reduce emissions while nonrenewable emissions boosted emissions in Argentina.…”

Assessing the spillover effects of research and development and renewable energy on CO2 emissions: international evidence

The primary motivation of this paper is the lack of consensus on the impact of renewable energy (RE) and research and development (R&D) expenditure on CO 2 emissions in the literature. Current literature has mostly ignored the spillover effect of R&D on CO 2 emissions by increasing the intensity effect of technology, leading to biased results. Further, little is known about the impact of previous epidemics on CO 2 emissions. This study fills these gaps by evaluating the spillover effects of RE and R&D on CO 2 emissions in a global panel of 54 countries from 2003 to 2017. Using a two-way time- and spatial-fixed-effects panel analysis, we find both income-induced and scale effects of economic growth are present in our panel, though the scale effect is the dominant one. Our findings indicate that economic growth increases CO 2 emissions at a decreasing rate, validating the Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis, and that urbanization and foreign trade worsen the environment. We also find that epidemic episodes before COVID-19 had a nonsignificant impact on CO 2 emissions internationally. More importantly, our results confirm the presence of both the intensity and scale effects of R&D, with the intensity effect being the dominant one. We find overwhelming evidence that global R&D investment led to an overall (direct plus spillover) reduction of CO 2 emissions, driven by its spillover effect, through two channels: RE and economic growth. Finally, we find that RE installations assist with reducing CO 2 emissions internationally, though RE composition and state of R&D can lead to different findings. Our findings have significant policy implications for sustainable development. Our RE and R&D-spillover results support the policy recommendation of shifting to high-tech clean energy sources.

“…On the other hand, green or ecotourism focuses on promoting a symbolic, or worst, the coexistent relationship between tourism and environmental conservation. Further, there is a cumulative relationship between tourism development and environmental and economic development (Bandyopadhyay et al, 2022;Basarir & Cakir, 2015;Shi et al, 2020). Furthermore, tourism's ambiguity lies in the absence of semantic and conceptual clarity, resulting in its focus and purpose being interpreted in a variety of ways, particularly in the identification of many challenges of sustainable tourism development in the developing world (Sharpley, 2000;Zhang & Chan, 2010).…”

This study aims to assess community-based tourism development's socio-economic and environmental impact in the Province of Biliran, Philippines. The research employed quantitative and qualitative methods to gain insights into the province's socio-economic and environmental impacts of community-based tourism. Data were collected from key informants, stakeholders, and local tour guides, as well as from surveys and focus group discussions. The results indicate that community-based tourism development has generally benefited the local communities in terms of economic gains, employment opportunities, and improved infrastructure. However, the research also revealed that the development of tourism in the province had had some adverse environmental impacts, such as increased pollution and destruction of natural resources. The study also revealed that local communities had not been adequately involved in the planning and managing of tourism development in the province, which has led to a lack of ownership over the development process and a lack of accountability for the impacts. The study concludes that a more proactive approach to tourism planning and management is needed to ensure that tourism development's socio-economic and environmental impacts are adequately addressed.
