In line with the latest skincare trends, this study has found the purchasing intentions of green skincare brands based on social media influencers, brand trust and brand image. Cross-sectional research through an online survey questionnaire was conducted. A total of 334 primary data were used for analysis. Social media influencers are significant in building brand trust, brand image and sparking purchase intention in green skincare. The purchase intention of a green skincare brand can be stimulated through social media influencers and brand image. Although social media influencers may build up brand trust, purchase intention may not necessarily be influenced by brand trust. Social media influencers and brand image may encourage potential customers to make a purchase decision on green skincare products. However, consumers still have doubts about the brands' green claims and view it as more of greenwashing. Journal: Int. J. of Green Economics Pages: 93-107 Issue: 1 Volume: 19 Year: 2025 Keywords: brand image; brand trust; green branding; green skincare; purchase intention; social media influencer; Malaysia.

The roots of green economics can be traced back to ancient, non-reductionist conceptions of economic action, ranging from Aristotelian economics and the economic teachings of Asian religions to the school of the physiocrats and other approaches beyond the mainstream. In many ways, green economics can be seen as a continuation and further development of a historical understanding of the economy as a part of a whole. This is very different from the neoclassical tradition, which regards the economy as a system with its own rationality - that is, only based on the narrow framework of successful and efficient performance in markets. By comparing conflicting paradigms, the conclusion is drawn that there is a need for a redefinition of received views in an age of ecological destruction. Journal: Int.

Using an extended STRIPAT analysis framework, we test the existence of the environmental Kuznets curve and the validity of the pollution haven hypothesis in Ethiopia. Methodologically, the ARDL bounds test approach is employed to find the short-run and long-run estimates of the model. We find that CO<SUB align="right"><SMALL>2</SMALL></SUB> emission tends to fall with increasing in income in the long run in Ethiopia. Moreover, energy consumption, industrialisation, population density, trade openness, and foreign direct investment are found to significantly decrease environmental quality in the long run. Furthermore, the pollution haven hypothesis is found to be valid since both foreign direct investment and trade openness are intensifying CO<SUB align="right"><SMALL>2</SMALL></SUB> emissions in Ethiopia. Hence, policymakers are advised to adopt green growth, sustainable industrialisation, environment-friendly investment, and trade policies to abate environmental pollution in Ethiopia. Journal: Int.

Through quantile regression and dynamic panel threshold analysis, three main objectives are pursued: assessing industrialisation's effect on environmental quality across quantiles, exploring governance quality's influence on this relationship, and investigating the presence of the industrialised environmental kuznet curve (IEKC). Findings reveal industrialisation's significant negative impact on environmental quality at lower quantiles, with a positive effect observed at higher quantiles, suggesting a threshold effect. Governance quality moderates this impact, particularly at lower quantiles, emphasising its pivotal role in promoting sustainable industrial development. Dynamic panel threshold regression identifies critical thresholds where industrialisation's environmental implications intensify, informing targeted policy interventions. Policy recommendations include fortifying environmental regulations, promoting sustainable industrial practices, enhancing governance capacity, and adopting integrated policy approaches to balance economic development and environmental conservation in Africa.

The results indicate that all three factors significantly impact environmental awareness, which in turn positively influences purchasing decisions. Green marketing has the most potent effect, followed by green products and green prices. Mediation analysis reveals that environmental awareness partially mediates the relationship between green products and green marketing on purchasing decisions, while it strongly mediates the effect of green prices. These findings highlight the importance of integrating sustainability in product development, pricing strategies, and marketing efforts. Businesses should enhance transparency, educate consumers on sustainability benefits, and implement effective green marketing campaigns. This study contributes to the understanding of green consumer behaviour and provides strategic insights for businesses promoting sustainable consumption. Future research could explore additional mediators, such as consumer trust and perceived value. Journal: Int.

We assess firm-level climate change exposure by developing a specialised climate change dictionary, which is constructed by curating and integrating relevant keywords related to climate change. The frequency of these keywords within firm disclosures serves as a measure of the extent to which banks are exposed to climate-related opportunities, regulatory changes and physical risks. We observe that the positive impact of climate change regulatory and physical exposure on bank performance are more pronounced in high regulatory quality environment and after the implementation of the Paris Agreement. This study contributes to the understanding of how climate change exposure influences firms in the banking sector and highlights the importance of regulatory quality and implementation of Paris Agreement in facilitating positive impacts of exposure to climate change topics on these firms' performance.

This study is based on the natural resource-based view theory. The data was collected from 261 owners and managers of Indian SMEs. The conceptual model was analysed through structural equation modelling in SMART PLS 4 software. The study performed importance performance matrix analysis. Moreover, the results indicated that green entrepreneurial orientation has an insignificant impact on economic performance. Furthermore, more green innovation capability and green brand orientation are fully mediating between green entrepreneurial orientation and economic performance. This study makes a significant contribution to the existing literature. By emphasising green innovation and branding, SMEs can not only address environmental challenges but also strengthen their competitive advantage in the evolving market landscape. It holds enormous value for managers seeking insights into the effective utilisation of green entrepreneurial orientation in driving economic performance development. Journal: Int.

However, technology does not necessarily require environmental destruction. Innovations in environmental technologies can support sustainability and reduce climate change impacts. Despite their importance, environmental patents - key indicators of green innovation - are understudied. This paper investigates the effects of environmental patents, environmental taxes, renewable energy consumption, and economic growth on CO<SUB align="right"><SMALL>2</SMALL></SUB> emissions in OECD countries from 1995 to 2020. Using the Dumitrescu-Hurlin panel causality test, the study finds mutual causality between variables. These findings highlight the complex relationship between economic policies and environmental outcomes. As climate concerns grow, it becomes increasingly vital to understand how policy tools such as taxes and innovation influence emissions. The study contributes to the literature by offering insights into how environmental technologies and economic instruments can mitigate climate change. Journal: Int.

Selected West African studies, 1980-2022 Abstract: Some theories, like Malthus's, predict that population growth will outpace resources, while others disagree. This study investigated the impact of population growth on carbon emissions in Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal, and Niger from 1980 to 2022. The research, using secondary data from the World Bank Group and tested at a 0.05 confidence level, found that a 1% rise in population results in a 1.75% (or 174.966 units) increases in carbon emissions. A key finding was that while population growth positively impacts carbon emissions, it was insignificant to proxies of wealth creation, such as per capita GDP. Additionally, poverty and inequality were found to have a positive and significant relationship with emissions. The study recommends that West African governments implement measures to reduce fossil fuel use, such as carbon taxes on firms, and adopt deliberate population control strategies to mitigate climate change.

Eighteen Latin American countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay) are considered for the period 2019-2023. Using panel data estimation by the generalised method of moments (GMM), the results indicate that the existence of strong institutions and better government management enhances the effect of sustainable financial flows, which are relatively scarce in Latin America. It also mitigates the adverse effects of carbon-intensive financial flows, through redistributive public policies that improve the results in the social dimension of sustainable development, compensating for the limitations in meeting the objectives of the environmental dimension in the region.

We used food security indices from FAOSTAT and the number of people who tested positive for COVID-19 from the World Health Organization. The results are derived from a series of random effects panel models. The results show no statistically significant relationship between COVID-19 and the prevalence of severe food insecurity in the total population at conventional thresholds. However, we notice a significant negative effect on dietary energy supply adequacy. The results of this research suggest that in the event of a health crisis such as COVID-19, policymakers must take measures to limit the spread of the disease, but they must not lose sight of the economic and social impact of the restrictive measures taken.

Unfortunately, irresponsible parties such as corporations still use the green economy concept for personal gain through greenwashing and green financial crime. Green bonds shows a positive trend towards improving the quality of environmentally friendly technological innovations, building green infrastructure yet still causes climate issues. However, its application in Indonesia was constrained by the complexity of issuance eligibility requirements and has not been accompanied by strict audit quality. The conclusion of this normative legal research was that green bonds should be implemented accordingly to the eligibility requirements and procedures, both in the form of corporate and government bonds and the quality of due diligence for prospective issuers needs to be improved.

The study merged two theoretical frameworks: WebQual 4.0, a measure of website quality and theory of planned behaviour for analysis. This cross-sectional research model was analysed using structural equation modelling (SEM) applied to collected data of 410 consumers. The findings revealed that consumer's attitude and perceived behavioural control were significantly linked with their purchase intentions. The study further established the role of perceived interaction quality, usability quality and service interaction quality of the website are determining consumers' attitude towards green apparel. Research found an insignificant relationship between subjective norms and intention to purchase green apparel and confirmed the moderating role of internet usage intensity across different segments.

The conflict has precipitated substantial changes in trade strategies, international relations, and mechanisms of economic cooperation. A qualitative analysis of secondary data was undertaken using a descriptive methodology, through which key themes were identified - including economic repercussions, adaptive strategies, changes in export-import dynamics, supply chain restructuring, and the evolving landscape of global trade. Findings indicate that companies have encountered significant operational and financial challenges, prompting a shift toward more resilient and adaptable strategic models. The study highlights the critical role of international risk mitigation frameworks in navigating post-conflict trade environments. Key outcomes include the diversification of supplier bases, increased investment in technological innovation, and the reinforcement of regional trade agreements. These measures aim to buffer against the adverse effects of geopolitical disruptions and ensure long-term trade stability. Journal: Int.
