To obtain a scientific understanding of the spatial and temporal patterns of agricultural eco-efficiency (AEE) as well as its influencing factors in Fujian Province, effective recommendations were provided to promote agricultural green development. The Super-SBM model with undesired output was employed to assess AEE, and the GTWR model was used to analyze the main factors influencing AEE based on data from nine prefecture-level cities in Fujian Province spanning from 2000 to 2020. There are three conclusions to be drawn: Firstly, the AEE of Fujian Province has increased from 0.340 in 2000 to 0.971 in 2020

In this study, we applied decoupling theory to explore the link between carbon emissions, sewage discharge, and fishery output growth in China from 2012 to 2021. The research results indicated that during the research period, the relationship between carbon emissions and fishery output was mainly weak decoupling, while the relationship between sewage discharge and fishery output was weak decoupling and expansive negative decoupling. Carbon emissions and sewage emissions were weak decoupling for most of the time. At the same time, the article defined the relationship between the environment and fishery production based on the decoupling state between the three, which are environmentally friendly, conventional, and polluting. It was discovered that China’s fishery production and environment still exhibit a polluting state. This means that there is a need for green and coordinated development of fisheries production and the environment, and corresponding measures must be taken. As a result, we have proposed policy recommendations that include optimizing aquaculture models, strengthening technological innovation and promotion of new technologies, and strengthening government supervision, management, and policy support.

Nitrogen fertilizer production and use contribute to the increase in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. GHGs due to nitrogen (N) fertilizer use can be reduced to a certain extent with legume agriculture. This study was conducted to estimate the amount of N produced by biological N fixation (BNF) in legumes grown in Türkiye, the amount of synthetic N fertilizer corresponding to this amount of N, and the global GHG emission equivalent of the production, transport, and use of this fertilizer in the field. Firstly, the amount of N fixed by BNF in a year in legume cultivation areas in Türkiye was calculated. Then, the GHG equivalents emitted during the production, transport, and application in the field of synthetic N fertilizers, which is the equivalent of N fixed by BNF, were calculated. The total amount of N fixed with BNF in 2022 in Türkiye is 363,354 tons. The total GHGs emissions during the production, transport, and use of N fertilizer equivalent to 363354 t of N fixed by BNF is 2,631,043 tons CO 2 -eq. In other words, in one year in Türkiye, 2,631,043 tons of CO 2 -eq GHGs will be reduced thanks to legume agriculture. GHG emissions of the Turkish agricultural sector (total 72.1 Mt CO 2 -eq) have been reduced by about 3.65% (2.63 Mt CO 2 -eq). For an economically and environmentally sustainable agriculture, we need to give more importance to the cultivation of pulses.

Carbon allowance prices (CAP) directly reflect the overall movement of the carbon market, which is the core of the carbon market operation and an important perspective for studying the carbon market. Based on the threshold model and regime switching model, through studying the performance of CAP in China’s carbon market, the paper has the following conclusions. First, CAP show significant non-linear structure and three operating intervals of high, medium, and low, with most of the time being active in the medium and low intervals. Second, there is a stabilization mechanism in the current operation of CAP, which can adequately regulate the trend of CAP fluctuations and eventually converge back to the normal state. Finally, it is found that moderate increases are the main form of CAP volatility in China’s carbon market, but other possible states and the risk of abnormal CAP volatility due to state transformation still exist. Furthermore, for investors, China’s carbon market may be an ideal place to make long-term investments and hedge risks in the future. This paper provides theoretical support for investors and regulators in the carbon market to make scientific decisions based on the carbon market.
碳配额价格（CAP）直接反映了碳市场的整体走势，是碳市场运行的核心，也是研究碳市场的重要视角。基于门槛模型和制度转换模型，通过研究 CAP 在中国碳市场中的表现，本文得出以下结论。第一，CAP 表现出明显的非线性结构，存在高、中、低三个运行区间，大部分时间活跃在中低区间。其次，当前 CAP 运行中存在稳定机制，可以充分调节 CAP 的波动趋势，并最终收敛回正常状态。最后，研究发现，适度增长是中国碳市场 CAP 波动的主要形式，但其他可能的状态和状态转换导致的 CAP 异常波动风险依然存在。此外，对于投资者而言，中国碳市场可能是未来进行长期投资和规避风险的理想场所。本文为碳市场的投资者和监管者基于碳市场做出科学决策提供了理论支持。

The present study attempts to ascertain the impact of health consciousness and environmental concern on millennials’ buying behavior (through attitude and intentions) towards green personal care products. It also assesses reference group influence’s impact on the association between green buying intentions and behaviors. This study collects first-hand data from 402 millennials who use green personal care products to meet their routine needs. A purposive-cum-simple random sampling method was adopted. The partial least squares (PLS) structural equation modeling (SEM) method was used for the analysis. Findings show that health consciousness and environmental concerns impact consumers’ attitudes in predicting green purchase behavior. The formed attitude strongly influences green buying intentions and behavior. In addition, reference group influence dampens the linkages between green purchase intentions and the behavior of Indian millennial consumers. The findings can be used to create new organizational strategies and policies for emerging economies and better understand green consumer behavior.

Sediment transport in debris rivers is a unique phenomenon of sediment transport in general. This is related to the complexity of the characteristics of the material transported and the nature of the flow that transports sediment. This work aims to predict potential bed profile changes in one of the debris rivers in Indonesia: the Sombe-Lewara River in Central Sulawesi Province. The control of debris flow in this river has been carried out simultaneously by the relevant government agencies by building sediment control structures along the river section. The study was carried out by hydraulic simulation at the intersection of the Sombe River and Lewara River using the HEC-RAS Model with two input data: average discharge and bed load gradations at both upstream boundaries. The average discharge was obtained by rainfall-runoff transformation using the HEC-HMS Model due to the limited discharge data in the study area, while the sediment gradation data was obtained from laboratory test results based on bed load sample data. Due to the limitations of the observation data, the parameter optimization is only applied to the HEC-RAS model, especially the Manning roughness coefficient by comparing the observed water level elevation with the simulated water level elevation. The results of the study indicate that the bed profile elevation in the upstream confluence of the river tends to increase and the bed profile downstream of the confluence tends to decrease. This is closely related to the transport intensity and bed slope upstream and downstream of the river confluence. The results of this study can be used as a reference for handling sedimentation in debris rivers.

The research is focused on finding ways to develop safe environment design using virtual worlds like Second Life and Metavers and identifying the best opportunities for this. The novelty of the study lies in a wide representative survey of experienced participants in the process of designing a secure environment using virtual tools and obtaining their generalized Delphi assessment of the prospects and optimal capabilities of this process. The survey involved 228 participants from 31 countries. The participants formulated a set of possibilities and patterns of possible development and then gave them an assessment. The results of the study showed that designers and planners tend to distrust the possibilities of modeling and predicting the state of the urban safe environment in virtual spaces and tend to perceive it as a means of creating projects, revealing the imagination and talent of the designer and a space for communication and co-design with the expert community and communities. It was revealed that they see the use of augmented reality for the presentation of real objects in the virtual world and information about objects in the real world as the most promising direction of development.

This study examines the effects of globalization on environmental quality, explicitly focusing on the scale, technique, and composition aspects proposed by KOF Swiss Economic Institute. A large sample of 115 developed and developing countries is analyzed to understand how different dimensions of globalization impact environmental degradation at various levels, using the quantile regression method. The results indicate that globalization has a positive effect on emissions at lower and middle quantiles, but at the upper quantiles, the effect becomes negative, based on the distribution of CO 2 per capita (CO2PC). Additionally, each dimension of globalization has its influence on emissions: (i) Renewable energy consumption significantly negatively impacts environmental quality across most percentiles, except for the 90 th percentile. (ii) Foreign direct investment inflows positively affect environmental quality at lower quantiles but negatively at higher quantiles. (iii) Urbanization initially correlates negatively with environmental degradation at the 50 th percentile, but this relationship turns positive at the 75 th percentile. Overall, globalization benefits countries facing environmental degradation seriously, while countries maintaining a high quality environment have not benefited much from globalization. These findings offer valuable insights for policymakers in developing effective environmental policies considering diverse economic and environmental conditions across countries.
