Sažetak
The role of human capital and unemployment has been debated in a
limited number of empirical studies that have aimed to study the discipline
of environmental sustainability. Therefore, by Employing a
reliable autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model approach, this
study examines the dynamic linkage between education, unemployment,
and CO2 emissions, by using the Chinese economy’s dataset
from the time period pertaining to 1991–2020. The vivacious side of
human capital shows that variables such as literacy rate and the average
year of schooling curb CO2 emissions in the long run. Moreover,
Human capital results are also based on facts in terms of their magnitude
and direction. Also, empirical findings have unfolded that
unemployment significantly increases CO2 emissions in the longrun.
However, the short-run has estimated that the coefficients of
education and unemployment provide similar results. Based on
these novel findings, a wide set of economic policies are required
and hence suggested for maintaining the environmental quality.
