Abstrakt
W niniejszym artykule zbadano wpływ przedsiębiorczości na ślad węglowy w Afryce Subsaharyjskiej (SSA). Wykorzystano dane pochodzące ze wskaźników rozwoju świata (World Development indicators, WDI) i wskaźników zarządzania światowego (World Governance indicators, WGI). Wykazano, że przedsiębiorczość ma negatywny, ale nieistotny statystycznie wpływ na ślad węglowy w Afryce Południowej. Ponadto przedsiębiorczość ma pozytywny i statystycznie istotny wpływ na ślad węglowy w Afryce Środkowej (0,052%) i Afryce Południowej (0,1914%), natomiast ma negatywny i statystycznie istotny wpływ na ślad węglowy w Afryce Wschodniej (0,064% ) i Afryce Zachodniej (0,0273%). Stwierdzono, że przedsiębiorcy mogą opracowywać i promować czyste technologie, projekty w zakresie energii odnawialnej, inicjatywy dotyczące gospodarki o obiegu zamkniętym, praktyki zrównoważonego rolnictwa, ekologiczne rozwiązania transportowe i programy edukacyjne mające na celu zmniejszenie śladu węglowego. Wymaga to współpracy między zainteresowanymi stronami w celu stworzenia sprzyjającego środowiska dla zrównoważonej przedsiębiorczości i przyspieszenia przejścia Afryki w kierunku niskoemisyjności. Wyniki przyczyniają się do dialogu politycznego na rzecz realizacji Celów zrównoważonego rozwoju, takich jak dobre zdrowie i dobre samopoczucie (SDG 3), czysta woda i warunki sanitarne (SDG 6), promowanie polityk zorientowanych na rozwój, które wspierają działalność produkcyjną, tworzenie miejsc pracy i przedsiębiorczość (cel zrównoważonego rozwoju 8.3); zrównoważone miasta i społeczności (SDG 11), działania w dziedzinie klimatu (SDG 13), życie pod wodą (SDG 14) i życie na lądzie (SDG 15).
