Africa remains the most affected by environmental degradation, thereby exacerbating the negative effect of climate change in the region. Little empirical credence has been leaned to the institution-environmental sustainability relationship in Africa. This omission in the literature of environmental sustainability is abysmal, considering the role of institutions and government in ecological preservation. To inform policy and research on the subject matter, we estimated a unbalanced panel data of the indices of good governance and strong institutions to explain transformation to environmental sustainability using the dynamic system generalised method of moment estimator from 1996 through 2017. Findings suggested a positive relationship between the rule of law and regulatory quality and transformation to environmental sustainability. An inverse relationship between government effectiveness and environmental sustainability was established. We recommended concerted effort at an institutional level such that policy and punishment for violation of greenhouse strategies will be optimum.
非洲仍然是受环境退化影响最严重的地区，从而加剧了该地区气候变化的负面影响。在非洲，很少有实证证据表明机构与环境可持续性之间存在关系。考虑到机构和政府在生态保护方面的作用，这种在环境可持续性文献中的缺失是令人震惊的。为了为政策和研究提供信息，我们使用动态系统广义矩估计方法，从 1996 年到 2017 年，对良好治理和强大机构的指数进行了非平衡面板数据分析，以解释向环境可持续性的转变。研究结果表明，法治和监管质量与向环境可持续性的转变之间存在积极关系。同时，政府效能与环境可持续性之间存在反比关系。我们建议在制度层面上做出协同努力，以便对违反温室战略的政策和惩罚达到最佳效果。
