I am pleased to share that our research paper,
"The Impact of the European Union 2030 Climate and Energy Framework on the Ecological Footprint: The Moderating Role of Green Technology Innovation,"
has been published in Sustainable Futures.
This work is the result of a collaborative effort with Amir Hossein Nimjerdi, Mohammad Rahsepar, Milad Morshedi Ghaziani, and myself (Seyedhossein Sajadifar). It has been particularly rewarding to conduct this research alongside my graduate students and witness their growth as young researchers.
Our study addresses an important question in environmental economics: Can ambitious climate policies effectively reduce ecological pressure, and what factors enhance their effectiveness?
Using Difference-in-Differences (DiD) and Triple Difference-in-Differences (Triple DiD) models, we provide causal evidence that the EU 2030 Climate and Energy Framework significantly reduces the ecological footprint of member states. More importantly, our findings show that green technology innovation substantially strengthens the effectiveness of climate policy.
A key contribution of this research is moving beyond traditional CO₂ emission indicators by employing the ecological footprint as a more comprehensive measure of environmental sustainability, while also revealing the moderating role of green technology innovation in translating climate policy into tangible environmental outcomes.
I sincerely thank my co-authors for their dedication, collaboration, and valuable contributions throughout this research journey. I hope our findings contribute to the growing body of knowledge on environmental economics, sustainability, and evidence-based climate policymaking.
