Introduction and Objective: Achieving high economic growth is one of the development goals in countries that have a direct relationship with the quality of the environment, because the increase in economic growth has led to an increase in agricultural and industrial activities and has caused an increase in environmental pollutants and more use of scarce natural resources, both of which will mean reducing the quality of the environment. But the path of a knowledge-based economy is a path that pursues both economic development and does not have the plagues of ordinary industrial development. Therefore, paying attention to the knowledge-based economy can be important in the path of sustainable development.
Material and methods: Considering the importance of the knowledge-based economy on the level of pollution, the present research examines the four knowledge-based economic indicators introduced by the World Bank, including economics; innovation; technology and education deals with the emission of three important pollutants, CO2, CH4 and N2O. To achieve this goal, 8 Islamic developing countries (D8) were used for the period 2000 to 2019, which were estimated with the help of Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS) to investigate the effect of sub-indices on the amount of pollution, artificial neural networks were used. It has been used to Iran.
Results: The results of the DOLS model showed that in all three pollution diffusion models, the information technology and the innovation indexs had a negative and significant effect on pollution diffusion and the education index had a significant positive effect. The results of the neural networks for Iran indicated that there had been a negative effect on the amount of pollution in all three sub-indicators of economic and innovation pollution.
Conclusion: The results showed that among the four indicators, the innovation index had a greater elasticity on the spread of pollution than other indicators. Therefore, it is suggested to invest more in the use of innovations in Iran and other D8 member countries. Also, according to the results of neural networks in Iran, it is suggested to move with more attention and more correct management in controlling corruption and the quality of regulations, as well as increasethe country's economic growth in the direction of reducing pollution.

Introduction and Objective: The packaging of a product is a combination of various elements, each of them can be effective in the buying behavior of consumers. One of the important elements of the packaging is the information elements included on the packaging. In this research, the effect of four types of packaging information, including mandatory information, marketing information, nutritional information, and environmental information, on the preferences of consumers of dairy products, was investigated in the city of Noor, Mazandaran province in 2021.
Material and Methods: This research is practical in terms of its purpose, and descriptive-correlation survey in terms of the way of conducting the research. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire that was distributed among 384 customers of food stores in the city of Noor by available sampling method. The reliability of the questionnaire was confirmed through three measures of factor loadings, Cronbach's alpha and composite reliability, and its validity was confirmed through convergent validity and divergent validity. Structural equation method was used in this research.
Results: The model estimation results showed that the research model had moderate predictive power, so that the independent variables together could explain 37.7% of consumer behavior changes. In this regard, legal information with a path coefficient of 0.55, environmental information with a path coefficient of 0.33, and marketing information with a path coefficient of 0.275 respectively have had the most positive and significant impact on consumer purchasing behavior. The path coefficient calculation of 0.097 did not show a significant relationship between nutritional information and the buying behavior of customers.
Conclusion: The findings of the research showed that the types of packaging information are effective on the behavior and preferences of consumers; also, marketing information has a positive and significant effect on consumer buying behavior. It is suggested that in order to attract more attention of consumers, the information related to the storage conditions of the products should be made available clearly and completely.
