Interconnecting sustainable development goals 7 and 13: the role of renewable energy innovations towards combating the climate change
This research examines the trends in environmental footprints through energy innovations, digital trade, economic freedom, and environmental regulation from the context of G7 economies. Quarterly observations from 1998-2020 have been utilized for the advanced-panel model entitled Method of Moments Q...
