Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Using a sample of 24,321 firm‐year observations from 25 countries over the 2006–2021 period, we show that operating flexibility increases carbon emissions. This increase is due to to the efficiency and instability channels. The relation is stronger for firms where expansion flexibility outweighs contraction flexibility, and for focused and financially unconstrained firms. Cross‐country analyses indicate that the effect of flexibility on carbon emissions is more prominent in developed economies with superior institutional quality. In contrast to prior studies that highlight the beneficial consequences of operating flexibility, our findings expose its adverse effect on environmental performance.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
