Green trading and ecological sustainability under macroeconomic policy framework

When confronted with ecological challenges,trading ecologically friendly products involving renewable technologies,green management practices,and effluent treatment methods could alleviate ecological degradation on a global scale while considering the macroeconomic policy framework.Therefore,this study determines the effectiveness of fiscal and monetary policy instruments in moderating the relation-ship between green trade openness(i.e.,trade in environmentally related products)and ecological sus-tainability.Applying panel quantile regression on data from 20 OECD members from 2003 to 2016,we found that green trade openness supports ecological sustainability through a gains-from-trade approach.Concerning moderation effects,expenditure-driven fiscal expansion reinforces the favorable influence of green trade openness on ecological sustainability across ecologically less/moderately efficient economies,while it does the reverse for ecologically more efficient members.Taxation-driven fiscal contraction pro-motes ecological sustainability amelioration impact of green trade openness for economies with below-average ecological quality and remains neutral for those with average/above-average ecological quality.Besides,interest rate-driven monetary contraction proliferates the ecological sustainability enhancement effect of green openness.We suggest that the fiscal and monetary policies demand unambiguous coordi-nation with the OECD's trade policy structure for optimal environmental outcomes of trading in environ-mental products.These insights would help OECD's green trade policies gain momentum to facilitate the attainment of the Climate Action agenda of the United Nations'Sustainable Development Goals.
