Abstract
This research explores how digital transformation (DT) affects environmental performance (EP) in mining companies, considering supply chain power dynamics involving suppliers and retailers. We construct theoretical models to depict the game process of the DT strategy of a mining company under different supply chain power structures. We then validate our theoretical model through a sample of 1155 A-shared listed mining companies with complete financial data in China. Regression models with fixed effects are applied to estimate the potential parameters. The empirical findings are consistent with theoretical results, showing that DT improves the EP for mining companies. The EP is weaker when DT is treated at higher supplier and retailer concentrations. This study can guide policy frameworks at COP28, promoting sustainable mining practices aligned with global climate goals.
期刊介绍：
Business Strategy and the Environment (BSE) is a leading academic journal focused on business strategies for improving the natural environment. It publishes peer-reviewed research on various topics such as systems and standards, environmental performance, disclosure, eco-innovation, corporate environmental management tools, organizations and management, supply chains, circular economy, governance, green finance, industry sectors, and responses to climate change and other contemporary environmental issues. The journal aims to provide original contributions that enhance the understanding of sustainability in business. Its target audience includes academics, practitioners, business managers, and consultants. However, BSE does not accept papers on corporate social responsibility (CSR), as this topic is covered by its sibling journal Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management. The journal is indexed in several databases and collections such as ABI/INFORM Collection, Agricultural & Environmental Science Database, BIOBASE, Emerald Management Reviews, GeoArchive, Environment Index, GEOBASE, INSPEC, Technology Collection, and Web of Science.
