Beyond the classroom: Influence of a sustainability intervention on university students’ environmental knowledge and behaviors
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - Trang 1-12 - 2024
On college campuses, environmental science education largely takes place in classrooms, thereby limiting impact on the full student body. By implementing an educational intervention in an informal campus setting, this study tested an approach aimed at expanding the reach of environmental learning. Students at a mid-size Midwestern university were exposed to a food-focused environmental and climate...... hiện toàn bộ
The role of leadership in depleting institutional ethos: the case of Scott Pruitt and the Environmental Protection Agency
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 9 - Trang 187-195 - 2019
By borrowing theoretical insights from institutional theory and environmental and military sociology, the paper examines a relatively unobservable yet deep impact of Scott Pruitt’s tenure as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) administrator: changes in the institutional ethos of the EPA. Institutional ethos refers to the intangible and invisible fabric of the institution—its “spirit”—and imp...... hiện toàn bộ
Mapping research activities and technologies for sustainability and environmental studies—a case study at university level
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 42-48 - 2012
Systemic understanding of potential research activities and available technology seeds at university level is an essential condition to promote interdisciplinary and vision-driven collaboration in an attempt to cope with complex sustainability and environmental problems. Nonetheless, any such practices have been hardly conducted at universities due mainly to a lack of appropriate institutional sch...... hiện toàn bộ
Twitter as a tool for conservation education and outreach: what scientific conferences can do to promote live-tweeting
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 2 - Trang 257-262 - 2012
If more conservation-minded citizens were aware of certain environmental threats and how to resolve them, these issues could be resolved more effectively. Scientific conferences focusing on conservation bring together countless experts on environmental problems and solutions, but are not an effective means of reaching the interested public on a large scale. This paper discusses the use of twitter ...... hiện toàn bộ
Hybrid green infrastructure for reducing demands on urban water and energy systems: a New York City hypothetical case study
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 77-89 - 2016
Green infrastructure shows promise as a “best management practice” for controlling stormwater runoff, particularly in older cities with combined sewer systems. Green infrastructure systems have been used to both mitigate pollutant loading to adjacent waterways as well as to reduce burdens on municipal wastewater and stormwater collection and treatment systems during storm events. Although the elec...... hiện toàn bộ
Minding the gap: socio-demographic factors linked to the perception of environmental pollution, water harvesting infrastructure, and gardening characteristics
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 12 - Trang 594-610 - 2022
With the ongoing need for water conservation, the American Southwest has worked to increase harvested rainwater efforts to meet municipal needs. Concomitantly, environmental pollution is prevalent, leading to concerns regarding the quality of harvested rainwater. Project Harvest, a co-created community science project, was initiated with communities that neighbor sources of pollution. To better un...... hiện toàn bộ
A trickster tale about integrating Indigenous knowledge in university-based programs
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 2 - Trang 324-330 - 2012
Written as a trickster tale and co-narrated by the researcher and a trickster figure (Crow), this writing considers the challenges of bringing traditional ecological knowledge to environmental studies and science programs. The researcher describes a project to raise and release salmon, which was collaboratively developed and carried out by members of a First Nations community and staff at the loca...... hiện toàn bộ
Immersive field experiences lead to higher-level learning and translational impacts on students
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 9 - Trang 286-296 - 2019
Internships in STEM disciplines, especially in fields related to conservation and sustainability, have become more widespread in recent years. Such experiences are thought to go beyond traditional classroom learning and are now required as part of the curriculum in many programs. However, benefits of such internships have largely been presumed up to this point. In this work, we developed and teste...... hiện toàn bộ
Urbanites’ perceptions of green spaces and their roles in effective management: a survey-based study from Delhi, India
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 - Trang 31-42 - 2022
In recent decades, Indian cities have experienced massive restructuring, expansion, and redevelopment due to economic, social, and infrastructural changes. Urbanites commonly aspire for a livable city with more trees and green spaces to mitigate the pollution and extreme stress faced in their daily lives. However, unprecedented urbanization has caused such Urban Green Spaces (UGSs) to shrink, be p...... hiện toàn bộ
The nature buffer: the missing link in climate change and mental health researchAbstract The connections between climate change and mental health are well known (Berry et al., Int J Publ Health 55(2):123–132, 2010; Clayton and Manning 2018; Kim et al., J Environ Sci Health C 32(3):299–318, 2014). Research also points to the positive impacts of nature on mental health, well-being, and attention (Capaldi et al., Int J Wellbeing 5(4):1–16, 2015; K... ... hiện toàn bộ
