Nowadays, customers are more interested toward a healthy way of life. They apprehend that the meals they are consuming have direct impact on their health and they are preferring organic food over the food prepared with the help of harmful chemicals. Indian population is showing a huge interest in the use of natural meals. It is very difficult for a businessman to know the changing buying habit of customers, so the current research is very useful to understand the affecting factors on the buying attitude of Indian organic food customers. This study proposed a research model and used a questionnaire to collect the data of 200 organic food users. The information evaluation has used confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to establish validities of the instrument and in the process, identified that every indicating variable has meditated their primary constructs. After the CFA, it is described that the perfect fit for the statistics contemplated by the form of measurement. Path analysis approach was used to test the causal effect association with several constructs (structural model). The association ship model for buying intention may additionally assist the agency in dealing with the market for organic food.
如今,消费者对健康的生活方式更感兴趣。他们担心他们所吃的食物对他们的健康有直接的影响,他们更喜欢有机食品而不是用有害化学物质制作的食品。印度人对使用天然食物表现出巨大的兴趣。对于一个商人来说,了解顾客购买习惯的变化是非常困难的,所以目前的研究对于了解印度有机食品顾客购买态度的影响因素是非常有用的。本研究提出了一个研究模型,并采用问卷调查的方式收集了200名有机食品使用者的数据。信息评估使用验证性因子分析(CFA)来建立工具的效度,并在此过程中确定每个指示变量都考虑了它们的主要结构。在CFA之后,它描述了通过测量形式所考虑的统计数据的完美拟合。采用通径分析方法检验与多个构念(结构模型)的因果关系。购买意向的关联船舶模型还可以帮助代理机构处理有机食品市场。

The aims of this exploratory research are to identify key stakeholders and their risk perceptions related to the bike-sharing enterprise and to point out possible strategies to mitigate those risks. The result of this study found that 10 stakeholders are involved in this business. Theft and vandalism, traffic accidents, disclosure of personal information, and loss of customer deposits are considered the most important risks factors. Application of smart digital technologies in detecting faulty bikes, development of collaborative relations, awareness building, and involvement of third-party organisations to refund user deposits is considered the most important risk mitigation strategies.

Over the years, business leaders were criticised for exploiting as well as harming the environment for the sake of profit maximisation. The environmental movement has brought to conscious the potential negative impact of corporate ideals and formed the basis for resistance to those ideals. This study demonstrates the impact of environmental values on employees' attitudes toward business owners and managers and highlights the impact of change in social values on business activities and norms. The results of this study are meaningful to leaders and policy makers who seek to promote workers' cooperation and support in face of urging social trends.
多年来,商界领袖因为了利润最大化而剥削和损害环境而受到批评。环保运动使人们意识到企业理想的潜在负面影响,并形成了抵制这些理想的基础。这项研究展示了环境价值观对员工对企业主和管理者态度的影响,并强调了社会价值观的变化对商业活动和规范的影响。这项研究的结果对那些寻求促进工人在面对紧迫的社会趋势时的合作和支持的领导人和政策制定者来说是有意义的。

Development of Bangladesh is endangered because of environmental degradation. Faced with this challenge, the government of Bangladesh introduced green banking policy and encourages banks to participate in offering green financing since 2011. This study aims to examine and compare the green financial performance of selected commercial banks in Bangladesh for three years. In achieving this objective, secondary data is gathered from annual report and green banking report of five conventional banks and five Islamic banks. Additionally, to justify the comparison of Islamic banks performance with conventional counterpart, case study and risk-return analysis is conducted. The study finds that none of the banks fully meet the green policy requirements; however, Islamic banks showed more seriousness than conventional one. To expedite green financing of banks several recommendations are made. Presumably, Islamic banks can contribute more to the sustainable economic growth of the country by in-lining their complete operations with green policies.
由于环境退化,孟加拉国的发展受到威胁。面对这一挑战,孟加拉国政府自2011年起推出了绿色银行政策,并鼓励银行参与提供绿色融资。本研究旨在检验和比较孟加拉国选定商业银行三年来的绿色金融绩效。为了实现这一目标,从五家传统银行和五家伊斯兰银行的年度报告和绿色银行报告中收集了二级数据。此外,为了证明伊斯兰银行与传统银行业绩的比较,进行了案例研究和风险回报分析。研究发现,没有一家银行完全符合绿色政策要求;然而,伊斯兰银行表现出了比传统银行更为严肃的态度。为了加快银行的绿色融资,提出了几点建议。据推测,伊斯兰银行可以通过将其全部业务与绿色政策结合起来,为国家的可持续经济增长做出更多贡献。

The rising global concern on climate change and sustainable development has led to a paradigm shift in the Indian markets. Consumers today prefer green products over conventional products as they are growing environmentally and socially responsible. As a result of the growing base of eco-consumers several individuals and organisations are taking advantage of the contemporary Indian market scenario by innovating and redesigning their products with a green perspective. Hence, the concept of green entrepreneurship is slowly and steadily establishing stronghold in the Indian markets. This study is exploratory in nature as it offers insights into the emergence of the concept of green entrepreneurship and its role in the Indian context. Based on the available literature the study proposes a conceptual model which explains the nexus between environmental, economic and social actors in development of green entrepreneurship which further leads to achievement of sustainable development. The opportunities and challenges for green entrepreneurship development are also explored in light of the initiatives taken by business houses, individuals and the Government of India by taking up case studies of successful green entrepreneurship ventures in India.
全球对气候变化和可持续发展的日益关注导致了印度市场的范式转变。今天的消费者更喜欢绿色产品而不是传统产品,因为他们越来越对环境和社会负责。由于越来越多的生态消费者,一些个人和组织正在利用当代印度市场的情况,从绿色的角度创新和重新设计他们的产品。因此,绿色创业的概念正在印度市场缓慢而稳步地建立据点。这项研究本质上是探索性的,因为它提供了对绿色创业概念的出现及其在印度背景下的作用的见解。在现有文献的基础上,本研究提出了一个概念模型,该模型解释了绿色创业发展中环境、经济和社会行动者之间的联系,从而进一步导致可持续发展的实现。通过对印度成功的绿色创业案例进行研究,本报告还根据商业机构、个人和印度政府所采取的举措,探讨了绿色创业发展的机遇和挑战。

Green GDP is an indicator of sustainable development and environmental accounting via the green economy concept. This article aims to present a method for calculating green GDP according to the Herman E. Daly formula and its empirical calculation for Thailand. Such calculation relies on the output distance function via stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) to estimate the elasticity of good and bad outputs before computing the shadow prices of air pollution and water pollution and calculating green GDP succession. The findings of this study indicate significant elasticity of around 0.1146 for air pollution and 0.1915 for water pollution. During a period 1997-2016, green GDP when focusing on the pollution cost and resource depletion reveals an average value of around 4,807,994.45 million baht (137,371.27 USD million) with an average gap from GDP approximately 33.59%. The average ratio output per pollution cost was around 2.99 million baht per mg/kg.
绿色GDP是可持续发展的指标,通过绿色经济理念进行环境核算。本文旨在提出一种根据Herman E. Daly公式计算绿色GDP的方法及其对泰国的实证计算。这种计算依赖于通过随机前沿分析(SFA)的产出距离函数来估计好产出和坏产出的弹性,然后再计算空气污染和水污染的影子价格,计算绿色GDP继承。本研究的结果表明,空气污染和水污染的显著弹性约为0.1146和0.1915。1997-2016年期间,考虑污染成本和资源消耗的绿色GDP平均约为4,807,99445万泰铢(137,37127万美元),与GDP的平均差距约为33.59%。每污染成本的平均产出比率约为299万泰铢/毫克/公斤。

Latvia with its growing economy and intensive use of biomass is one of the biggest per capita natural resource consumers in Europe. If current patterns of resource use are maintained, environmental degradation and depletion of natural resources will continue. This paper looks at the resource flows in Latvia (1995 to 2016) - the country that does not have fossil energy resource deposits and timber industry is an important economic sector contributing most to the direct material input. It analyses the main resource flows, its intensities and looks at the main drivers behind these changes. Results demonstrate that resource extraction and consumption is steadily increasing and are not decoupled from economic growth. However, material productivity in Latvia is still very low. With population gradually decreasing and declining share of the timber industry in the total economic output, the main driving force of resource consumption in Latvia is economic growth.
随着经济的增长和生物质的密集利用,拉脱维亚是欧洲人均自然资源消耗最大的国家之一。如果维持目前的资源使用模式,环境退化和自然资源的枯竭将继续下去。本文着眼于拉脱维亚(1995年至2016年)的资源流动-这个没有化石能源资源储量的国家,木材工业是对直接材料投入贡献最大的重要经济部门。它分析了主要的资源流动及其强度,并着眼于这些变化背后的主要驱动因素。结果表明,资源的开采和消耗在稳步增长,并且与经济增长不脱钩。然而,拉脱维亚的物质生产力仍然很低。随着人口的逐渐减少和木材工业在经济总量中所占份额的下降,拉脱维亚资源消耗的主要驱动力是经济增长。

Consumers are key actors in promoting environment-friendly consumption behaviours. Throughout times, consumers are becoming apprehensive of the environmental problems caused by their day-to-day consumption of goods and services, and as a result, they prefer to purchase green products. The study examines the influence of values such as environmental concern, self-transcendence and self-enhancement on attitude towards green product purchase. The research model developed is verified, applying structural equation modelling technique with a sample of 1150 consumers from the state of Goa, India. The findings suggest that environmental concern and self-transcendence has a significant positive, whereas self-enhancement has a significant negative influence on attitude towards green product purchase. There is an indicative positive influence of attitude towards green product purchase on green product purchase intention and green product purchase behaviour. The findings do not support the mediating role of green product purchase intention in the relationship between attitude towards green product purchase and green product purchase behaviour. The managerial implications of the findings are also outlined in the paper.
消费者是推动环保消费行为的关键角色。随着时间的推移,消费者越来越担心他们日常消费的商品和服务所造成的环境问题,因此,他们更愿意购买绿色产品。本研究考察了环境关注、自我超越、自我提升等价值观对绿色产品购买态度的影响。应用结构方程建模技术,对印度果阿邦1150名消费者的样本进行了验证。研究发现,环境关注和自我超越对绿色产品购买态度有显著的正向影响,而自我提升对绿色产品购买态度有显著的负向影响。绿色产品购买态度对绿色产品购买意愿和绿色产品购买行为有指示性正向影响。研究结果不支持绿色产品购买意愿在绿色产品购买态度与绿色产品购买行为之间的中介作用。本文还概述了研究结果的管理含义。

Green economy versus green economics: examining Africa's conceptual uncertainty in the post-Paris era 绿色经济与绿色经济:审视后巴黎时代非洲概念的不确定性
Q2 Economics, Econometrics and Finance Pub Date : 2019-08-05 DOI: 10.1504/IJGE.2019.10022999

Arguments exist within academic circles on the most appropriate economic organisation toolkit to drive post-Paris commitments. Two variants of green economy compete for attention: the green growth and green economics. Though ideas of greening the economy is catching on in Africa but the continent cannot leapfrog from its carbon intense trajectory to a low-carbon economy unless it is aligned with the tenets of a concept which is agreeable to the people. Using a desk study, we uncovered that with the current concept, there is no let up on emissions as green growth strategies are externally driven favouring depletion of natural capital. The green economics is the most suitable model for Africa owing to its interrelatedness with African biocommunitarianism world view. Solution to Africa's intractable agroecological problems lie in the flexible mechanism this variant avails. This convergence with Africa's ecological values allows a cultural shift capable of guaranteeing political buy-in to catalyse a green technological shift.
学术界存在关于推动后巴黎承诺的最合适的经济组织工具包的争论。绿色经济的两种变体相互竞争:绿色增长和绿色经济。尽管绿色经济的理念正在非洲流行起来,但非洲大陆不可能从碳密集的轨道跨越到低碳经济,除非它与人民所接受的概念原则相一致。通过桌面研究,我们发现,在目前的概念下,由于绿色增长战略是外部驱动的,有利于自然资本的消耗,因此排放不会减少。由于绿色经济与非洲生物社群主义世界观的相互关联,绿色经济是最适合非洲的模式。解决非洲棘手的农业生态问题的办法在于这种变通的灵活机制。这种与非洲生态价值的融合使得文化转变能够保证政治上的支持,从而促进绿色技术的转变。

This convergence with Africa's ecological values allows a cultural shift capable of guaranteeing political buy-in to catalyse a green technological shift.","PeriodicalId":35060,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Green Economics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44123017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Global warming is probably the most serious environmental problem facing the human kind. Understanding public concern regarding global warming is the key to create mitigation and adaptation policies. This paper aims at assessing worldwide concern for global warming. This research is the first to attempt to fit a stochastic cusp catastrophe model to estimate the influence of GDP per capita, CO2 emissions, objective environmental problems, post-materialistic tendencies, religiosity, and demographic factors on global warming concern. Results from 47 nations seem to contradict Inglehart's objective environmental problems hypothesis. Results also confirm the existence of a global warming Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC). We also found that concern for global warming is driven by religiosity. The findings of this paper highlight the importance of using sophisticated non-linear dynamic techniques in determining factors influencing concern for global warming across the globe.
全球变暖可能是人类面临的最严重的环境问题。了解公众对全球变暖的关注是制定缓解和适应政策的关键。本文旨在评估全球对全球变暖的关注。本研究首次尝试拟合随机尖点突变模型来估计人均GDP、CO2排放、客观环境问题、后物质主义倾向、宗教信仰和人口因素对全球变暖担忧的影响。来自47个国家的调查结果似乎与英格尔哈特的客观环境问题假说相矛盾。结果还证实了全球变暖环境库兹涅茨曲线的存在。我们还发现,对全球变暖的担忧是由宗教信仰驱动的。本文的研究结果强调了使用复杂的非线性动态技术来确定影响全球变暖的因素的重要性。
