Abstract

Because of the environmental damage associated with the rise in economic activity, Policymakers are desperate to develop mechanisms that can help fuel an economy’s economic well-being and reduce environmental hazards for the Sustainable Environment (SEN). Hence, the focus of this paper would be to identify ways SEN can be developed by assessing the extent of contributions by Financial Inclusion (FIN), Natural Resources (NTR), and Urbanization (URB) could make and to examine the impact they could have for developing an SEN. For that purpose, the panel data from the E7 economies were selected because each E7 country was ranked among the top 20 greatest CO2 emitters in 2016. The estimations were done through the application of CS-ARDL. The outcome of CS-ARDL reports the positive role of FIN, NTR, and URB in the destructing environment through emitting additional CO2 emissions, which is a threat to SEN. Based on the findings, the policymakers from the E7 countries are recommended to give more emphasis on the operations and processes that are more environmentally friendly so that their objective of having the SEN can be successfully attained.
