The sustainable potential of efficient air-transportation industry and green innovation in realising environmental sustainability in G7 countries

Air transportation has a deep impact on environmental degradation due to the higher fossil fuel consumption. On the other hand, this industry also embraces the highest innovation that may alter its environmental consequences. However, there is a dearth of empirical evidence that explores the impact...
