Abstract: Climate degradation is a significant issue around the globe, and climate change mitigation technologies and the effective use of natural resources are significant factors in reducing climate degradation, which require research attention. The current article analyses the impact of climate mitigation technology (renewable energy production and consumption) and natural resource management (natural resource rent and depletion) on climate change (greenhouse gas emissions) in China. A nonlinear ARDL technique is used to test the link between the constructs over the period 1991–2021. The findings reveal that renewable energy (RE) output, RE consumption, natural resource rent, and natural resource depletion have negative associations with greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in China, while industrialization and population growth have positive associations. The research provides guidelines for regulators formulating regulations related to climate change using climate mitigation technology and effective use of natural resources.
