本研究は、1970年から2021年までのBICS諸国（ブラジル、インド、中国、南アフリカ）を対象に、天然資源の枯渇が環境品質（負荷容量係数とCO2排出量）に与える影響を、総一次エネルギー、都市化、経済成長を考慮して分析した。プール平均群（PMG）法を用いた結果、短期的には資源豊富さが環境品質を向上させるが、長期的には汚染を悪化させることが示された。また、エネルギー消費、都市化、経済成長は環境を悪化させる。政策提言に資する実証的知見を提供する。
English
This study analyzes the impact of natural resource depletion on environmental quality (load capacity factor and CO2 emissions) in BICS countries (Brazil, India, China, South Africa) from 1970 to 2021, considering total primary energy, urbanization, and economic growth. Using the pooled mean group (PMG) method, it finds that resource abundance improves environmental quality in the short run but worsens pollution in the long run. Energy consumption, urbanization, and economic growth degrade the environment. The findings support policy recommendations for sustainable development.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本は天然資源の多くを輸入に依存しており、資源利用と環境負荷の関係はサプライチェーン管理や資源安全保障の観点から重要。BICS諸国との貿易・投資関係を考慮すると、これらの国の環境政策動向は日本企業の海外事業や資源調達戦略に影響を与える可能性がある。
In the global GX context
This study provides empirical evidence on the resource-environment nexus in major emerging economies, relevant to global climate policy and sustainable development. It highlights the long-term environmental costs of resource extraction, informing international frameworks like the SDGs and climate mitigation strategies. The findings are useful for multinational corporations and investors assessing environmental risks in BICS markets.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Environmental sustainability and human well-being are negatively impacted by the rising carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions and the overuse of natural resources (NRs) which are crucial to our day-to-day lives, yet their scarcity requires proper stewardship to stop depletion. The above phenomena have caused atmospheric degradation in numerous locations, resulting in forest devastation, air and water pollution, and soil erosion. Furthermore, utilizing the load capacity factor (LCF) as a measure of ecological excellence encompasses considering ecological issues on both the supply and demand aspects. This study examines how Brazil, India, China, and South Africa (BICS) environmental quality (e.g. LCF and CO 2 emissions) have been impacted by the depletion of NR between 1970 and 2021, taking into account the effects of total primary energy (TPE), urbanization (URB), and economic growth (EG). The research used an advanced econometric methodology known as the pooled mean group (PMG) technique to estimate short- and long-term effects. This approach accommodates variations in slope parameters among nations. The findings show that NR abundance considerably expands environmental quality in the short run. Conversely, NR increases pollution in the long run. Moreover, TPE, URB, and EG also degrade the quality of the atmosphere in the BICS countries. According to the outcmes, the short-run EG impact is larger than long-run impact supports the Environmental Kuznets Curve theory in BICS. The study's findings assist in formulating policy suggestions aimed at promoting sustainable development in BICS economies.
