| dc.description.abstract | Global warming and climate change have been on the agenda for years, with discussions on dealing with and mitigating their effects on humanity and the environment (Brink, 2019, Para. 1) Industrialization, as the driver of economic development, has resulted in massive pollution emissions (Ahhmad and Zhao, 2018:3). In an effort to protect the environment and encourage sustainability, tax policies and mechanisms have been used and trusted as effective methods for government to influence society`s behavior (Brink, 2019, Para. 2). Government across different countries have introduced green taxation, including tax incentives, cash grants, and soft loans aimed at encouraging investment in environmental, social, and governance-related projects (PwC, 2023a:3) | |
