Abstract: This study investigates the dynamic effect of digital government on natural resource management in 30 Chinese provinces, considering the government intervention policies, GDP, foreign direct investment, trade openness, and energy prices. In this context, QLARDL, QR, and Dumitrescu Hurlin Panel Causality approach estimate the panel data collected from 2010 to 2020. Results suggested that the digital government positively impacts natural resources management at various quantile levels. On the contrary, government intervention has a limited effect, while Foreign direct investment boosts natural management, especially in the long run. At the same time, energy prices and openness trade significantly negatively impact natural resources management. Based on the empirical findings, several policy implications are suggested for the Chinese provinces.
