The Impact of Technological Innovation and Institutional Quality on the Environment in Nigeria
The study investigated the impact of technological innovation institutional quality on the environment in Nigeria The study spanned from 1990 to 2022 The key variables in the study were technological innovation as proxy by technological index institutional quality as proxy by six governance indicators and carbon emission as proxy for environment While the control variables include energy consumption and Gross domestic product The study first conducted a pre-estimation test using Descriptive statistics and Correlation matrix and Augmented Dickey Fuller test for stationarity while Ordinary least was used as major estimation techniques since it does not violates classical linear regression assumption The findings from the preliminary estimation shows that all data series are stationarity at levels The result form the best linear unbiased estimates indicate that environmentally related technological innovation destructively affects C02 emissions while energy consumption and economic growth positively impact C02 emission
The Asymmetric Arrows of Space-Time in the Evolution of Planet and the Anthropocene
This article aims to verify the relationship of society with nature and its thermodynamic energy flows as an evolutionary element generating totalization and being analyzed by the arrow s of space-time This article will also verify how this process influences the formation of the Anthropocene In this sense the principles born after the advent of quantum mechanics will be applied to the spatialtemporal analysis of physis which integrates society-nature The article also verifies how each formcontent in a unique way contributes energetically to the development of its arrow of space-time Thus it will also be verified as the current production process is associated in general with the disruption of the states of homeotase in the energetic balance of the process of exchange between energy and matter and as the old pattern of relative stability which characterized the Holocene has been replaced by disorder which is at the basis of the emergence of the Anthropocen
