    This study is the first to examine the impacts of industrial gas consumption on industrial output in Malaysia due to its significance in the industrial sector. The present study aims to provide valuable insights into sustainable development and carbon emission reduction. The augmented distributed lag (ARDL) approach was employed to explore the relationships between gas consumption, foreign direct investment (FDI), financial development, capital, labor, trade openness, and industrial yield. Gas consumption, FDI, and capital significantly affect industrial output in the short and long runs. Nonetheless, the impacts of labor and financial development were only observed in the long term, while trade openness produced no notable influence on industrial output. The results could lead to critical policy implications as natural gas consumption is associated with lower carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions than non-renewable energy sources, such as oil and coal. Consequently, promoting increased gas utilization in the industrial sector could serve as a crucial driver for sustainable development and environmental protection by simultaneously reducing environmental damage and enhancing output. The current study provided valuable quantitative knowledge for policymakers, industry stakeholders, and any parties intending to advance sustainable economic growth while addressing environmental challenges

    This study examines the relationship between industrial output and life expectancy in ASEAN countries from 2000 to 2021, emphasizing coal consumption as a moderating factor. Using the Panel ARDL method, the findings reveal that industrial output positively impacts life expectancy, highlighting the economic benefits of industrialization, such as improved healthcare access and job creation. Model 1's industrial output coefficient is 0.1542, while Model 2's is 0.2352, both models giving a p-value of 0.0000. However, this positive effect is significantly offset by coal consumption, which detracts from life expectancy due to environmental degradation and health hazards such as respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. This coefficient is 0.0722 (p-value: 0.0000) in Model 2 and 0.8457 (p-value: 0.0000) in Model 1. The study further shows that the interaction between industrial output and coal consumption exacerbates these adverse effects, underlining the critical need for sustainable industrial practices. Practical implications include the necessity for targeted green policies, such as phasing out coal subsidies, adopting renewable energy technologies, and implementing carbon taxation, to mitigate the detrimental health impacts of coal consumption while maintaining industrial growth. Identifying critical thresholds, such as coal consumption exceeding 50% of the energy mix or industrial output growth surpassing 5–10% annually without corresponding energy efficiency improvements, provides actionable insights for policymakers. These findings highlight the importance of balancing industrial development with sustainable health and environmental outcomes through informed policy interventions.
