The digitalDigital advancements have brought about unprecedented disruptions, reshaping traditional practices and opening new avenues for innovation. Digital transformationDigital transformation (DT) signifies a monumental shift across organization and society, propelled by the evolution of technological digitalization like big data analysis, artificial-intelligence, the internet of thingsInternet of Things (IoT), and cloud services provider. However, within this digitalDigital revolution, there remains a significant gap in understanding its implications for environmental sustainabilityEnvironmental sustainability. This research will endeavor to bridge this gap by conducting a comprehensive analysis of DT’s impact on environmental sustainabilityEnvironmental sustainability. Through a meticulous review of existing literature, the study will expose the various disruptions that DT has set off within this domain. The findings will culminate in developing a robust framework, delineating transformations across four pivotal areas: urban sustainability, waste managementWaste management, pollution controlPollution control and sustainable production. Within these key domains, a nuanced exploration will disclose a multitude of subcategories, each representing a distinct aspect of transformation. For instance, under pollution controlPollution control, sensor technologies and data analytics advancements have revolutionized monitoring and mitigation efforts, enabling real-time interventions and more precise control measures. Similarly, innovative solutions powered by digitalDigital technologies have facilitated efficient recycling processes in waste managementWaste management, minimizing waste generation and promoting circular economy practices. Furthermore, the research will go beyond simple classification and provide a guideline for subsequent investigations. This emphasizes the critical nature of evaluating performance indicators, organizational capabilities, and DT strategies for environmental sustainabilityEnvironmental sustainability.
