Abstract

The aim of the research is to examine the impact of ecological sustainability on poverty alleviation in Nigeria. Despite finding the limit to growth theoretical clarity, it is more justifiable to verify the connection that ecological sustainability does not relate to policies perspectives for improving the well-being of poor people. Employing Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model (ARDLM) to analyze the impact of social and economic sustainability on poverty reduction based on ecological policies perspectives from 1981-2021. Use the limit-to-growth theory to examine the hypothesis in poverty alleviation as well as the ecological policies perspectives such as social or urban growth, economic or empowerment sustainability. The results reveal that ecological policies perspectives correlated with social and economic sustainability in alleviating poverty. In addition, social sustainability is positive and significant, while economic sustainability is negative and insignificant in the short- and long-run on poverty alleviation. Besides, the impact of ecological policies on social sustainability on poverty alleviation is found to be positive and economic insignificant, which does not confirm the hypothesis on growth limit that creates an impact on ecological policies perspectives.
