Additionally, a comparative analysis of advanced and emerging economies is conducted. The findings reveal that while expansionary monetary policy significantly increases environmental degradation in emerging economies, no significant relationship is observed in advanced economies. This underscores the critical need to integrate sustainability into monetary policy frameworks. It is vital for long-term sustainable growth that central banks assess the environmental impacts of their activities, prioritise green investments, and promote green financial instruments.}, number={65}, publisher={Sosyoekonomi Society}
