Abstract

The prevailing economic growth model prioritizing economic is no longer valid due to a great need for a sustainable and balanced growth model encompassing both economic expansion and environmental sustainability and the natural resource conservation, which is important to explaining carbon neutrality and the sustainable development goals.
