Global externalities from avoided emissions in the Costa Rican cattle sector: opportunities for more efficient mitigation policiesAbstract The livestock sector has had an important contribution to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In Costa Rica, more than 20% of emissions come from beef and milk production. This paper performs a cost–benefit analysis of a climate policy in the Costa Rican cattle sector, and tries to innovate by including the positive global externality of emissions reduct... ...

Analysis and prioritization of risk factors in the management of Halal supply chain management
Discover Sustainability - - 2021
In the competitive globalized market, risk management is an important aspect of the supply chain, but it becomes crucial to the management of a faith-based supply chain. The halal supply chain is an emerging research era at an early stage. To retain the halalness from procurement to end customer, this research was aimed to identify and prioritize the important risk elements for managing the HSC. F......
Farmers’ agricultural tractor preferences in Ethiopia: a choice experiment approach
Discover Sustainability - Tập 2 - Trang 1-15 - 2021
Unless supported by agricultural mechanization, achieving sustainable development goals is generally challenging in sub-Saharan African countries, specifically so in Ethiopia. Animal power is the dominant mode for plowing, threshing, and transportation in Ethiopia and yet, at the same time little effort was employed to assess subsistence farmer’s tractor demand in the study area. This study was co......
COVID-19 and lockdown schooling: how digital learning environments influence semantic structures and sustainability knowledge
Discover Sustainability - Tập 2 - Trang 1-13 - 2021
Promoting sustainable lifestyles through Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is part of the UN’s Agenda 2030. Earlier empirical studies proved direct interactions with and in natural environments to be effective ESD methods. Pandemic-related lockdowns rendered such courses nearly impossible, which raised concerns about achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in general. To evalu......
Statistical analysis on egalitarian land redistribution in Ethiopia: policy evaluation using repeated cross-sectional data
Discover Sustainability - Tập 3 - Trang 1-13 - 2022
Rural livelihood in Ethiopia is dependent on subsistence agriculture that has been challenged by farmland shrinkage as a result of rapid population growth. The Amhara regional state government has implemented egalitarian farmland redistribution in 1997 in the region for small-scale and landless farmers. This study aimed to seek new insights from the perspective of equity, rather than efficiency su......
Reflections on educational leadership for sustainability: a Brazilian case study
Discover Sustainability - - 2022
Large-scale socio-environmental education to foster a culture of sustainability and transform degrading situations is considered a matter of worldwide urgency. Considering this, we present and discuss results from a thesis that investigated the potentials and challenges of a participatory methodology, capillarity architecture, to educate sustainability leaders used on a socio-environmental trainin......
Prospects for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles to decarbonize road transport
Discover Sustainability - Tập 4 - Trang 1-17 - 2023
This paper explores the role of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (HFCVs) in helping to meet global climate goals of limiting long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to 1.5 °C. Employing the GREET Model and data from the International Energy Agency (IEA), the study comprehensively compares the full fuel-cycle emission profiles of HFCVs and battery electric vehicles (BEVs). The paper conducts an in-dept......
Driving sustainable uptake: a systematic review of global literature on policies governing woody biomass for energyAbstract Woody biomass has gained increased attention as a source of renewable energy. However, its categorization as a sustainable source of energy remains controversial, as its carbon neutrality depends on its end use, moisture content, bulk density, and the distance between the source of biomass and its end use. Due to these mediating factors, policies largely sh... ...

Navigating complexities towards sustainable food crops production: local practices for climate change adaptation in rural Ghana
Discover Sustainability - Tập 3 - Trang 1-15 - 2022
Globally, food crops production has been challenged by the impacts of climate change. Climate change scholars have argued that rural dwellers, particularly smallholder farmers who engage in food crops production, suffer the most due to their low capacity to adapt. A growing body of knowledge also suggests that local practices serve as safeguards, that enable smallholder farmers to lessen their vul......
Sustainability planning, implementation, and assessment in cities: how can productivity enhance these processes?
Discover Sustainability - Tập 3 - Trang 1-19 - 2022
In this “urban century”, planetary realities and increased environmental and social awareness have led to significant international agreements and the recognition that local communities play a crucial role in successfully implementing long-term sustainability goals. Through two case studies in British Columbia, Canada, this research focused on how the concept, principles, and practices of holistic......
