Authors: Hui Liu - Changchun University of Technology (China) [presenting]
Abstract: Adequate protection of the environment is one of the hot spots of concern for all sectors of society due to severe environmental pollution. The focus primarily looks into the factors that influence the adoption of green innovations by analysing the growth paths of Chinese SMEs operating in highly polluting industries over a longer time frame than five years. Artificial Intelligence is a valuable tool for solving the issues of ecological degradation, A quantitative method has been implemented for the Chinese companies samples from the deeply polluting industries for more than five years. The findings of this paper advise that the average board size, the governing board meetings, and organizational performance are positively connected with the Chinese firms environmental process. Board independence and diversity of gender have irrelevant associations with ecological performance, A convenient threshold regression model has been used to accumulate the respondents data. It also reveals that larger board sizes and more frequent governing board meetings are positively associated with improved environmental performance among these firms, The findings state the critical implications for the firm executives, policymakers, environmental activists, and regulators. This result supports the insight drained from the resource dependence, stakeholder, firm agency, and legitimacy theories.
