摘要
高质量发展是经济发展新常态下的主动选择,也是企业可持续发展的必由之路。如何驱动企业在逐利过程中兼顾环境、社会和治理表现(ESG)成为高质量发展过程中不可回避的重大现实问题。基于此,利用2011—2020年A股上市公司ESG评级数据与地级市环境关键词百度搜索指数数据,重点考察公众环境关注对企业ESG表现的影响效应与内在影响机制。结果发现:公众环境关注显著促进了企业ESG表现,这一结论经过大量稳健性检验后依然成立。公众环境关注通过外部压力和内部关注双重渠道促进企业ESG表现的提升,具体表现为对外部调整了政府注意力配置、对内部提高了企业可持续发展意识。同时,在规模大、董事年长、政企关联弱的企业以及位于财政收入水平高、法治环境好地区中的企业,公众环境关注对企业ESG表现的提升作用更强。最后,媒体报道在公众环境关注促进企业ESG表现提升的过程中起到了正向调节作用。
