This study intends to analyze how the adoption of Green Innovation (GI) practices by companies of the industrial sector promotes the development of Green Technologies (GT) and Green Growth (GG) in Developed Countries (DC) and Emerging Countries (EC). The survey sample consisted of 8659 observations from DC industrial companies and 1958 observations from EC companies, from data collected from Thomson Reuters and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Structural Equation Modeling was used for variable relationship analysis. The results pointed out that, in DC, GI practices impacts positively the GT of the countries, but this does not occur with the GG, which are negatively affected by the adoption of GI practices by the companies. On the other hand, in EC, only environmental investments positively affected the development of GT in these countries. And in relation to the GG, the GI practices of Environmental Management and Environmental Policies positively influenced this growth. The survey results contribute to discussions on regional differences in the benefits of green innovation by companies in promoting sustainable development. In addition, it can contribute with possible paths for companies and governments in setting goals to achieve SDG-8, SDG-9 and SDG-10.
Keywords: green innovation; green technology; green growth; SDG.

In recent years, especially since 2005, a substantial increase in temperature has been observed worldwide, including in Poland. Crop production is very important for livestock feeding and food production. In this study, the effect of climate change from 2014 to 2022 on selected crops, especially winter rye yield, was evaluated. The data for the analyses were obtained from the FAOSTAT database and post-registration cultivar trials. The effect of climate change was evaluated for cereals, potatoes, and sugar beets. The trends of crop yields were evaluated using analysis of regression. The results of the study proved a positive correlation between precipitation and crop yield and a negative correlation between temperature and crop yield. The most significant effect of weather conditions was observed in the April-June period.
Keywords: climate change, rye yield, forecast.

In the scientific article, the positive impact of preventive accident insurance programs in the workplace is studied. Such programs are the most common and strategically significant type of social security in many countries. Insurance programs often include medical services, vocational rehabilitation, and benefits for injured workers or family members of deceased breadwinners. However, considering current trends, preventive measures aimed at stimulating the improvement of working conditions and occupational safety, active support, and funding of informational and preventive measures remain relevant. The article provides an overview of the use of preventive measures in insurance programs and suggests improving their effectiveness in enhancing working conditions. Firstly, it is proposed to create a unified information database for monitoring insurance contracts, controlling insurance flows on an industry-specific basis, for each enterprise and specific profession, as well as supervising the completeness and quality of preventive measures and the timely provision of compensation to injured workers and rehabilitation measures. Secondly, within the framework of assessing insurance risk, it is suggested to implement comprehensive assessment of occupational risk through the insurance fund. The results of the occupational risk assessment will serve as the basis for applying a two-component insurance tariff, taking into account a surcharge if the working conditions are unsafe. Thirdly, it is proposed to provide occupational health and safety training through insurance financing.
Keywords: safe work, risk-oriented approach, insurance, industrial accident, prevention.

Socio-cultural sustainability has become an increasingly important aspect of resilience in public services, particularly in meeting the needs of diverse populations. This article reviews the concept of socio-cultural sustainability and its relevance to public services and provides a comprehensive framework for achieving socio-cultural sustainability in service delivery. The framework includes five key strategies: (1) engaging with diverse communities, (2) promoting cultural competency, (3) fostering inclusion and equity, (4) building partnerships, and (5) continuous evaluation and improvement. The article discusses the importance of each strategy and provides practical examples and case studies to illustrate how they can be implemented in practice. The research explores the benefits of achieving socio-cultural sustainability, including increased community engagement, improved service delivery, and enhanced organizational performance. Finally, the article discusses the challenges of achieving socio-cultural sustainability in public services and provides recommendations for overcoming these challenges.

People make mistakes in their thinking. Errors in human thinking and incorrect information contents in people’s mental representations can be found in everyday context such as in arguments about the current climate crisis. Erroneous thinking can cause false thought models such as climate change denialism and conspiracy thinking. Therefore, it is important to analyze the information contents of incorrect schemas or thought models. This can be done with an approach called content-based psychology.
In this research we analyzed 2980 public opinions posted in Finnish Social Media Platform Suomi24 to study how people think about and what kinds of illusory contents they use in constructing their representations on climate issues. We wanted to ask whether one can find illusory thinking in social media posts and to outline a typical construction of a false thought model in conspiracy thinking related to climate change. As a result, we found that conspiracy thinking can be found in online media discussions, and it is strongly associated with climate change denialism. Also, different fallacious or biased thought models have combined effects in constructing active mental representations in conspiracy thought models. Analyzing mental contents makes it possible to understand denialist and illusory thinking, but it requires further work.

In the context of the strategic development objectives of the European Union for the next strategic cycle until 2030, a priority issue is the decarburization of the economy, oriented towards the design and monitoring of strategies in order to achieve the objectives regarding climate change, the simultaneous stimulation of economic growth and ensuring social cohesion. A special place belongs to the progress of climate change, which requires progressive steps in the implementation of strategies and policies for all member countries of the EU. We propose in this article to focus on the application of decarburization strategies and policies in the countries of the European Union with an emphasis on Romania, with a necessary approach to social inclusion issues. The development of proposals for efficient strategies for the decarburization of economies in EU, the comparative analysis between the diversification of macroeconomic policies and instruments with different evaluation criteria, having as an essential support - the digitalization tools, which will accelerate the process of decarburization of the countries' economy EU. We propose the development of decarburization strategies based on a mix of policies focused on establishing emission prices; standards and regulations; the implementation of capital, labor and innovation reallocation policies.

There are significant regional disparities regarding circular material use rates between Western European countries and other regions in the EU. Hence, there is a severe risk that the circular transition will remain slow and unevenly distributed across EU regions. Business ethics related to circular change involves some principles and practices that guide the ethical conduct of businesses operating within the circular economy. The study aims to recommend a framework to guide regional entities to implement an Ethical Circular Hub to identify new solutions and challenges regarding stakeholder collaboration, ethical circular value chains, social equity, fair labor practices, and transparency, suggesting innovative business models. This framework proposal is based on the literature review and analysis of case studies to identify and promote the best practices in terms of Ethical Circular Hubs implementation. The outcomes of this study will help improve the regional development of policy instruments in the field of Ethical Circular Hubs, identifying ethical and circular best practices to overcome transition problems, will enable countries’ regions to integrate and benchmark successful experiences and policies from other regions into their own regional reality and contribute to a more sustainable, resilient, and inclusive society.

Since the appearance of the first entrepreneurial activities, people have noticed that the most important resource, without which they will not be able to be successful, is the human resource. Over time, industries and fields of activity have evolved and this is obvious to everyone, but this would not have been possible without well-trained, involved and eager people to achieve performance.
Therefore, whatever resources are involved in a business, regardless of the field, country, coverage area, the human resource remains the most valuable. The business sector is constantly evolving and, along with it, the labor market also shows a dynamic that is at least directly proportional.
The pandemic period strongly affected almost all economic sectors and, at the same time, a very large number of employees were directly affected by these changes: either they became unemployed, or they were laid off, or (the happiest ones) they continued the flow of work, without being strongly affected by what happened in the market. We have analysed these changes at the international level in order to outline the evolution of the labor market in recent years and its future trends.
Through this article, with the help of the synthesis of case studies carried out by accredited institutions as well as the specialized literature, we propose to identify what was, with the total or partial return to normality, the dynamics of the labor market and how the companies managed to straighten and fold with the new realities of the markets.

A mechanism for developing and implementing an international marketing strategy for an agricultural enterprise to ensure its sustainable development, a feature of which is to adapt to the new conditions of international markets, is proposed. It is proved that the introduction of a mechanism for developing and implementing an international marketing strategy for an agricultural enterprise will result in a prompt response to changes in the relevant segments of the international market environment through the development and implementation of market research and development activities, preparation of alternative and flexible management solutions aimed at ensuring the sustainable development of the agricultural enterprise.
The article develops an approach to identifying suitable markets for the export of the commodity group "1001 Wheat", where there are favorable business conditions for enterprises from Ukraine. The proposed approach is based on the application of global indicators of business conditions in international markets.
The foreign markets that demonstrate favorable conditions for doing business in them are identified, which indicates the existence of conditions that are a prerequisite for the formation and implementation of international marketing strategies to ensure the sustainable development of domestic agricultural enterprises producing the "1001 Wheat" product group in the German, Dutch, Belgian, British, Portuguese and Austrian international markets.
It is proved that the proposed mechanism for developing and implementing an international marketing strategy for an agricultural enterprise in the postwar period will promote the sustainable development of Ukrainian agricultural enterprises and the recovery of the Ukrainian economy as a whole.

In recent years, learning about sustainable development and sustainability has become an increasingly significant component in universities’ degree programs and curricula. As the world races to achieve the 17 United Nations’ sustainable development goals (SDGs) by the year 2030 and abide by the framework proposed by the Paris Agreement ratified in 2015, our educational landscapes have simultaneously evolved. In universities, lessons in and opportunities for sustainable development and sustainability have redefined the university curricula and set the trajectory for our young people to take the lead in co-creating solutions for a better world. In this paper, background information of Singapore, a small city-state in Southeast Asia, is first presented, against the backdrop of how the nation’s national constraints that are aligned to the UN SDGs have shaped its national agenda and national education, including its higher education landscape.
