The dataset includes firm-level ESG scores, financial indicators, carbon emission intensity, and related variables. All code is annotated for clarity. To reproduce the results: Open Stata (version 16 or higher). Set the working directory to the folder containing the data and code. Run do Code.do to execute the entire workflow.
