One of my papers entitled“Towards a Sustainable Environment: The nexus between ISO 14001, renewable energy consumption, access to electricity, agriculture and CO2 emission in SAARC countries” is considered one of the most cited Sustainable Production and Consumption articles. It has also recorded highly cited paper on Web of science website. In this study, we investigated the complex, country-level relationship between ISO 14001 certification, renewable energy consumption, access to electricity, agriculture, and CO2 emissions within the SAARC countries. In this study we use multiple models to examine data covering the years 2000 to 2014 starting with novel Grey Relational Analysis models. We found in this study that among all SAARC countries, India has substantial CO2 emission. We also found reduction in emission from renewable energy consumption and the adoption of ISO 14001 certification in these countries.The results reveal that among all SAARC countries, India has substantial CO2 emission issues. We also find reductions in emissions from renewable energy consumption and the adoption of ISO 14001 certification in these countries. The outcomes of this study can assist organizations and policymakers in their decision-making and investments.
