This study, based on an original survey of Japanese firms, analyzes the productivity of firms that used relief policy measures during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The result cautions against the excessive and prolonged relief policies.

Based on a quasi-natural experiment with the Zero Waste Cities (ZWC) initiative launched in 2019, this study takes 14,191 Chinese A-share listed companies from 2014 to 2022 as the research object to assess the impact of the policy on pollution and carbon emission reduction through a difference-in-difference method. It highlights the superior effectiveness of ZWC in enhancing collaborative efforts towards emissions reduction, with waste reduction impacts exceeding those on carbon emissions. The success is attributed to three main channels: rigorous environmental governance, green innovation promotion by firms, and shifts in public behavior.

Although a considerable body of research has documented the effects of environmental regulation, spatially differentiated sustainability pressures in China call for diversified environmental governance policies. Based on the Sustainable Development Policy for Resource-based Cities (SDPRC) implemented in 2007, we adopt a staggered difference-in-differences approach using firm-level data to investigate the microeffects and mechanisms of place-based supportive policy on corporate emissions. We find strong and robust evidence that the SDPRC has significantly reduced corporate emissions.
