Public debt can affect environmental quality in world countries through various mechanisms, including control of corruption and natural resource rent. In this regard, this study uses a threshold panel regression model and the load capacity factor (LCF) as an environmental sustainability assessment index to analyze the effect of public debt on the environment quality in 67 countries between the years 2002 and 2022 and according to the threshold effects of natural resource rent and control of corruption. The results show that the threshold level of the total natural resources rents as a share of the GDP is 12.385 percent and the threshold level of the control of corruption index is 0.882. In the model with the threshold variable of natural resource rent, the effect of public debts is insignificant in the first regime, but negative in the second regime. In the model with the threshold variable of control of corruption, the effect of public debts is negative in the first regime, but positive in the second regime. Based on this, it can be said that the natural resources rent and control of corruption play an important role in the type and intensity of public debt's impact on environmental sustainability. Based on other results, per capita energy consumption and population density have a negative and significant effect on LCF and the environmental hypothesis of load capacity curve (LCC) is also confirmed.
