innovation and environmental quality in select south Asian countries such as Bangladesh, India,
Pakistan and Sri Lanka during the period from 1990 to 2016. The study used Panel Fisher and Kao
residual cointegration & Full Modified OLS and Dynamic OLS to analyze the long run relationship

makers should incorporate innovation into reduction of CO2 emission. |
