Abstract
This study explores whether and how corporate environmental policies (CEPs) influence greenhouse gas emissions intensity (GHG) and/or voluntary environmental disclosure (CED). This study is important for two reasons: 1) If corporate environmental policies are proven to be effective in tackling environmental issues, protecting the natural environment, and enhancing corporate transparency, then less or no regulatory intervention would be needed. 2) Prior empirical literature on the effect of environmental legislations and international frameworks on corporate environmental performance have reported mixed results, which implies that regulatory intervention might not be always effective in tackling environmental issues, protecting the natural environment, and enhancing corporate transparency.
