Tóm tắt

Tóm tắtDựa trên mẫu các công ty từ các nước G7, chúng tôi điều tra tác động của đổi mới sinh thái đến quản lý chất thải cũng như vai trò điều tiết của các yếu tố môi trường, xã hội và quản trị (ESG) của doanh nghiệp trong mối quan hệ này. Các phát hiện của chúng tôi chỉ ra rằng mức độ đổi mới sinh thái cao hơn có thể dẫn đến sự suy giảm tỷ lệ chất thải tổng thể mà các doanh nghiệp sản xuất và sự gia tăng trong quy mô tái sử dụng và tái chế chất thải của các doanh nghiệp. Tương tự, các phát hiện của chúng tôi cũng cho thấy tác động điều tiết của ESG đối với mối liên hệ giữa đổi mới sinh thái và quản lý chất thải. Chúng tôi lập luận rằng đổi mới sinh thái, cùng với hiệu suất ESG tốt hơn, dẫn đến giảm lượng chất thải sản xuất và do đó quản lý chất thải doanh nghiệp tốt hơn. Nghiên cứu của chúng tôi có nhiều tác động ở các cấp độ vi mô và vĩ mô. Các quốc gia nên xem xét lại các chiến lược quốc gia và chính sách trong nước về nền kinh tế tuần hoàn để hình thành các liên minh quốc tế và thúc đẩy phát triển công nghệ nhiều hơn.
