About this book

Sustainable economic growth is important due to its implications for the ecosystem, natural resources, and human development. Public health is also a key factor in developing a sustainable economy, and it is a national asset because of its impact on labor supply and productivity. Health conditions depend on various factors, such as environmental hazards, availability of public facilities, economic conditions, pandemics etc. Green energy has an association with health, as it guarantees a clean environment. Such measures are necessary to improve the public’s mental and physical health, leading to sustainable economic growth. Hence, green energy, governance, and health are the potential avenues to enhance public health, promoting sustainable economic growth. Good health guarantees higher economic growth as, when more people are healthy and suitable to work, the labor supply will increase, and the economy grows. Likewise, when health improvements are made, the productivity of people improves because healthy people prove to be more active both physically and mentally. When overall productivity improves, the economy would also benefit. However, some factors affect public health, including environmental degradation process. Green energy helps to improve overall health by the reduction in emission of dangerous gasses. Preservation of balance in terms of atmospheric gasses becomes possible through green energy and a clean environment, resulting in fewer diseases and deaths, making the economy grow by providing healthier people with higher productivity. Previous studies tried to investigate the channel through which public health can affect economic growth and added environmental pollution as a health problem. However, the literature sheds light on the importance of a clean environment for the economy by checking its impact on public health. Although, there is a lack of investigation into how governance and green energy can influence public health which lead to increase the economic growth, calling scholars to add this beneficial factor in future research. This Research Topic focuses on sustainable economic growth through public health and green energy to add valuable information to the current knowledge in green energy, environment, public health, as well as sustainable economic growth. The main focus of research for this topic is emerging economies, as these are the most vulnerable in terms of health and energy issues and economic growth sustainability. It is assumed that the use of nonrenewable energy has a high environmental impact on health. Hence, there should be some practical solution to improve health without interrupting the energy supply. As a result, scholars must hypothesize and test new solutions, and this Research Topic is an attempt to do so. Topics covered by us would be governance, green energy, environment and sustainable economic growth.. This Research Topic provides an avenue for discussion as well as practical research on areas related to green energy, public health, sustainable environment, sustainable economic growth, and energy-related issues of developed and developing economies.
