        abstract = {This study aims to analyze the determinants of environmental degradation in the
efforts to achieve Net Zero Emissions in G20 countries. Environmental degradation
is proxied by carbon emissions per capita, while the independent variables include
economic growth, industrialization, foreign direct investment (FDI), green
technological innovation, renewable energy, and institutional quality. The study
employs panel data from 19 G20 member countries over the period 1999?2023. The
analysis is conducted across three sample groups, namely all G20 countries,
developed G20 countries, and developing G20 countries. The Pooled Mean Group-
Autoregressive Distributed Lag (PMG-ARDL) method is employed to identify the
short-run and long-run relationships between the independent variables and the
dependent variable. The results show that, in the long run, industrialization and
institutional quality have a positive and significant effect on environmental
degradation across all groups of countries. Economic growth has a positive and
significant effect on environmental degradation in the overall G20 sample and in
developing G20 countries, while it has no significant effect in developed G20
countries. Furthermore, FDI and renewable energy have a negative and significant
effect on environmental degradation across all groups, whereas green
technological innovation has a negative and significant effect only in developed
G20 countries. In the overall G20 sample and developing G20 countries, green
technological innovation has a positive and significant effect on environmental
degradation. In the short run, economic growth has a positive and significant effect
across all groups, while renewable energy has a negative and significant effect.
Industrialization and FDI have a positive and significant effect on environmental
degradation in the overall G20 sample and developing G20 countries, but have no
significant effect in developed G20 countries. Green technological innovation has
a negative and significant effect on environmental degradation only in developing
G20 countries, while institutional quality has no significant effect across any of the
country groups. Based on these findings, greater adoption of clean technologies is
required, particularly technologies aimed at reducing emissions from
industrialization processes, along with stronger governance across all groups of
countries. In developed G20 countries, policy should focus on increasing carbon
taxes on high-emitting industries and using the resulting revenues to subsidize the
development of green technologies. Meanwhile, in developing G20 countries,
policies should focus on strengthening human resource capacity so that knowledge
and technology transfer through FDI can promote the development of adaptive
green technological innovation. Thus, to achieve the NZE target, G20 countries
require stronger efforts and commitment.}
