The Chinese economy traces an outstanding economics growth and development by utilizing its natural resources and cheap labor force along with environmental problems. China is focusing on policies related to technology for people’s well-being. Despite this, about 2 million Chinese are going to die yearly due to air pollution regarding the Global Air Quality Report of the World Health Organization. The marginal impact of technology innovation and adoption is inaudible in the Chinese pollution equation. Therefore, this study analysis spotlights on nexuses of technology innovation and adoption CO2 emission for the Chinese economy, respectively. The marginal impacts infer that technology innovation and trade openness are mitigating the CO2 emission, whereas technology adoption and GDP enrich the CO2 emission in the Chinese context. Lag periods of technology innovation and adoption also have significant linkage with CO2 emission. Hence, an increase in technology innovation will help lessen the CO2 emission. The introduction of green energy and efficient ICT equipment is needed to tackle environmental degradation. The policy-makers can put a carbon tax on inefficient industrial processes and products for sustainable development.
