The Brundtland Commission report Our Common Future in 1987 gave birth to the concept of sustainable development. The meaning is benefitting the present without compromising the future. It was felt that, unless conventional growth and development are replaced by sustainable development through environmentally friendly actions, doomsday is very near. However, such sustainable development was followed by a global spree of consumerism that only added to the environmental burden. This dichotomy needs to be understood, and for the same purpose, one needs to go back to that point of Earth's history when ecology and economy were synonymous. From then on, the drift between the ecology and economy that has brought us to today's scenario needs to be understood. In this background, the chapter raises questions on how green the green sectors are. Furthermore, can sustainable development and consumerism be captured as one body of ‘sustainable consumerism'?

Tofu factories are spread across Indonesia as tofu is a cheap source of protein and favorite food for almost all population groups. Most tofu producers are micro/small business owners. In addition to soybeans, clean water is the most important input to produce tofu curd. It will generate a large amount of wastewater and solid waste, which still contains significant amounts of easily biodegradable organic matter. There are often complaints and protests from the public about the pollution in air and water in the area from the discharged waste. Tofu producers know about this, but their limited income and capital force them to ignore the environmental issues. The potential of tofu waste treatment technologies to produce new products or clean materials that can be fed back into the production process is discussed and reviewed to ensure all input materials in the tofu process can be used optimally and efficiently in a closed-loop production process. And it could be implemented easily and economically by the factories.

In response to Indonesia's accelerating digital use, this study aims to address challenges to implement digital business models and identify the impact of digital economy to external and social and environmental sustainability. This study uses desk study, descriptive statistical analysis, and quantitative regression model and qualitative information from discussion with relevant stakeholders. This study provides several important results. First, increase in mobile cellular subscription will lead to increase in inequality, while percentage of internet user to population has shown otherwise. Second, the study also found that technology has a possibility to affect environment since it could increase CO2 emission. The digital technology gives the pressure to increase balance of payment deficit. The recommendations include increasing digital access and digital literacy, developing pro-environment technology, and increasing the exports of digitally deliverable services.

This research-based chapter investigates impact of various innovation technology factors on digital banking customers' usage intention. The selected factors are online banking, mobile payment, artificial intelligence-based robot advisors, and cloud-based services. The study develops conceptual model against theoretical background of the innovation diffusion theory, technology acceptance model, and unified theory of acceptance and use of technology. Empirical data was collected through online survey using a self-administered questionnaire. Quantitative research method was employed with a total sample size of 302 respondents using snowball sampling technique. Normality and reliability tests were performed followed by confirmatory factory analysis, validity assessment, and structural equation modelling using AMOS 24. The findings confirm positive significant impact of artificial intelligence-based robot advisor and cloud-based services on usage intention. Theoretical contribution and managerial implications are then discussed along with limitations of the current study and future research avenues.

Being thrifty and frugal has become a distinct lifestyle choice. An insightful knowledge about thrifty and frugal consumers on the demand side has been revealed by previous studies. However, related issues on the supply side have largely been neglected. Therefore, this study aims to examine the projection of the thrift store images. By analyzing interviews displayed on public websites with the director and staff of Treasure Factory, a big thrift store chain in Japan, this study has revealed that the company is actively projecting its images. Among seven images, Treasure Factory is especially focusing on products, purchase processes and distribution channels (place), and customer benefits (psychology). The remaining images (prices, promotion, customers or people, and partnerships) are less emphasized but still harmoniously synchronize with and support the main images. Implications for the theory behind thrift stores and for the actual management of them are discussed based on these findings.

This study investigates the role of sustainable finance practices and their impact on digital banking services in India. An increased frequency of internet use for various digital banking services provides an opportunity to build the banking industry with various online services. This study reviews the literature on sustainable corporate finance and the adoption of e-banking services. The study uses an exploratory research-based approach to understand the usage rate and adoption of internet banking. A questionnaire-based survey was conducted on 325 respondents. Findings of the study suggest that there is a gradual increase in the adoption of internet banking, but major barriers in adoption are a threat of security, privacy, and trust.

This study shares some empirical insights for adopting a national innovation system (NIS) to catalyze capacity building in small states with relatively low technology-based research and development resources. These countries may have to start further back than other nations; however, this chapter maintains that with the right NIS, latecomers can have the advantage of catching up economically. This study explores Brunei Darussalam's journey to catalyze innovation for sustainable economic growth, particularly digitalization and deep tech. The study found that establishing a national innovation ecosystem could be effective with national consensus and acceptance behind the approach. It emphasizes building critical infrastructures, institutions, and governance to promote efficient knowledge flow, talent development, digital literacy, and overall absorptive capacity. Because Brunei is a small state, coordinating and facilitating cohesive linkages among its key stakeholders can strategically mobilize change. As Brunei Darussalam embarks on such a trajectory, it must determine a relevant model.

One of the most important concern the economies are facing is food security amidst the growing population. The population growth has exerted tremendous pressure on food security and has raised concerns over food sustainability. The sustainability of food waste is an environmental, economic, and social issue, which has useful policy implications. The issue has been studied through the analysis of responsible consumption and food waste. The literature has emphasised improving the efficiency in supply chain to reduce food waste, but researches on food waste at the consumer level are still in the natal stage. It is important to understand to develop the framework for responsible consumption and to assess the factors that may contribute to reduction in food waste at the household level. The study aims to examine the scope of responsible consumption to attain environmental sustainability.

The sudden appearance of COVID-19 has positively ameliorated digital presence generally as well as B2C e-shopping transactions. This situation attracts researchers' interest to unravel the effect of COVID-19 vis-à-vis various e-commerce activities. Recent studies have already shown a direct impact of the pandemic on many businesses, especially B2C transactions. However, its moderation effect and its effect as a control variable were scarcely traced in the literature. Hence, the chapter explains and proposes a framework for assessing online shopping use under the digital transformation in a post-pandemic era, including both a moderating and a control effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. Building on the TAM theoretical model, the proposed framework added risk factors and channel credibility as additional independent variables and the COVID-19 pandemic as both a moderating and a control variable, respectively. Using existing literature, the authors establish relationships among variables and conceptualise both the moderating and control effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, respectively.
