The article outlines the current state of increasing consumption and demand for primary energy resources due to exhaustion and avalanche-like growth of their world prices. The effects of excessive use of non-renewable energy resources that have led to global climate change and deterioration of the natural environment are highlighted. The priority of sustainable development of the world energy sector is based on increasing consumption of renewable energy resources. The processes of the general world consumption of various types of primary energy and the dynamics of indicators of world bioethanol and biodiesel production during 2000-2018 are analysed. The forecast of consumption of the primary world energy and the production of liquid biofuels has been made for 2019-2025. The results indicate that the world market of bioethanol and biodiesel tends to expand, providing from an economic point of view rational use of energy resources, reducing gasoline and diesel consumption.

The article describes the strategic orientations of environmental and economic regulation of sustainable agroforestry under the conditions of anthropogenic and agro-natural environment formation. The necessity to determine the territorial agroforestry potential for further formation of the agroforestry natural capital and the forest reclamation planning of agricultural landscapes is discussed. The system and mechanisms of the forest environment and economic regulation of sustainable spatial agroforestry in terms of the motive factors' formation and creating linear-type forest shelterbelts by agribusiness entities require the agroforestry reclamation cadaster. The methodology of environment and economic assessment of creating forest shelterbelts from the perspectives of the ecosystem service economy has been improved. Some features of determining the 'total economic value' of forest protective belts have been considered in this article. A system of strategic targets (production, economic, environmental, and social) for environmental and economic regulation of the spatial agroforestry has been proposed.

The paper deals with the analysis of the food security drivers among the post-Soviet, Visegrad and Baltic countries in the framework of green economy and sustainable development goals. The hypothesis of the investigation is checking to link between governance efficiency and food security of the country. The governance efficiency is estimated through the World Governance Indicators while the Food Security Index determined the food security of the country. Using the GLS method, the significance and power's impact of political institutions' functioning and the quality of governmental regulation on food security was checked. Considering the findings and results of comparative analysis of EU agricultural policy, the authors allocated the three types of food security drivers: basic (the focus of efforts on reducing corruption and increasing political freedom); enforced (focus on extending the right to vote and improving government efficiency); and intense (ensuring the rule of law).
本文在绿色经济和可持续发展目标的框架下,对后苏联、维谢格拉德和波罗的海三国的粮食安全驱动因素进行了分析。调查的假设是检验国家治理效率与粮食安全之间的联系。治理效率是通过世界治理指标来衡量的,而粮食安全指数则决定了一个国家的粮食安全水平。运用GLS方法,检验了政治制度运行和政府监管质量对粮食安全的重要性和权力影响。考虑到欧盟农业政策比较分析的发现和结果,作者将粮食安全驱动因素分为三种类型:基本的(集中精力减少腐败和增加政治自由);强制(侧重于扩大投票权和提高政府效率);和激烈(确保法治)。

Researches that provide insights on major environmental matters are necessary for policy decision making in Liberia. Therefore, we employ autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model to gauge short-and-long-run associations between CO2 emissions and Liberia's key macroeconomic variables. The ARDL long-run outcomes are compared against results from dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS) approach. The short-run outcomes reveal that energy consumption (EC) and real output (GDP) have significant positive impacts on CO2 emissions in Liberia. In the long-run, both ARDL and DOLS estimates show significant positive impacts of EC, real GDP and oil price on CO2 emissions. Hence, we find the existence of the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis for Liberia. Therefore, we argue that EC is the main factor that promotes economic growth in Liberia, but growth in EC and real GDP stimulate CO2 emissions growth. Thus, new carbon free technologies that reduce dependence on primary energy use are required.
为利比里亚的政策决策提供深入了解重大环境问题的研究是必要的。因此,我们采用自回归分布滞后(ARDL)模型来衡量二氧化碳排放量与利比里亚关键宏观经济变量之间的短期和长期关联。将ARDL的长期结果与动态普通最小二乘法的结果进行比较。短期结果表明,能源消耗(EC)和实际产出(GDP)对利比里亚的二氧化碳排放产生了重大的积极影响。从长远来看,ARDL和DOLS的估计都显示出EC、实际GDP和油价对二氧化碳排放的显著积极影响。因此,我们发现利比里亚存在环境库兹涅茨曲线(EKC)假说。因此,我们认为EC是促进利比里亚经济增长的主要因素,但EC和实际GDP的增长刺激了二氧化碳排放量的增长。因此,需要减少对初级能源使用依赖的新的无碳技术。

The excessive energy consumption in arid climates raises the question of utilising climate's intrinsic adaptive methods which could significantly contribute to energy saving strategies. This article introduces the feasibility of incorporating vernacular device strategies to reduce energy consumption and thereby to more realistically assess the opportunities for adapting these strategies in arid areas. The objective is to develop an overall process focused on the integration of vernacular devices and to realise an effective return for both users and developers by improving energy efficiency. A complexity analysis of the integration of the energetic aspects in several vernacular cases was performed in order to propose design processes that optimise energy performance while ensuring occupants' comfort, based on the proposed building structure morphology. The results concretely illustrate both the interrelation between energy consumption and the various conception choices, and how vernacular devices can condition local energy practices.
干旱气候下的过度能源消耗提出了利用气候的内在适应方法的问题,这可能对节能战略做出重大贡献。本文介绍了采用本地设备策略以减少能源消耗的可行性,从而更现实地评估在干旱地区采用这些策略的机会。目标是开发一个专注于本地设备集成的整体过程,并通过提高能源效率来实现用户和开发商的有效回报。为了提出优化能源性能的设计过程,同时确保居住者的舒适度,基于拟议的建筑结构形态,对几个乡土案例中能量方面的整合进行了复杂性分析。结果具体说明了能源消耗与各种概念选择之间的相互关系,以及乡土设备如何制约当地的能源实践。

Improving strategic decision making with big data-based media analysis - the case of coal power 基于大数据的媒体分析改进战略决策——以煤电为例

Big-data based methods are developed to aid corporate decision-making. This study utilises big-data based global media-analysis to clarify the role of coal-power related media-image in company decision-making. Opinion mining by a specific software tool for media-analysis and monitoring is utilised. The analysis bases on the notion that the media-image of company products - or specific technologies - may impact corporate investment and divestment decisions in the energy sector. The assumption is that coal-power related media-image may cause corporate brandimage pressures. The findings indicate that the general media-sentiment towards coal-power is negative, possibly influencing corporate decisions. The large negative media-sentiment towards coal-power may override the benefits of developing cleaner coal-power and related technologies such as carbon capture and storage and utilisation. The negative media-sentiment towards coal-power may mitigate the more positive image of related less-known technologies. Evidence is provided on the media-impact of coal-power related divestment decisions and potential impacts on decision making.
开发基于大数据的方法来帮助企业决策。本研究利用基于大数据的全球媒体分析来阐明与煤电相关的媒体形象在公司决策中的作用。利用特定的软件工具进行舆论挖掘,用于媒体分析和监测。该分析基于这样一种观念,即公司产品或特定技术的媒体形象可能影响公司在能源部门的投资和撤资决策。假设煤电相关的媒体形象可能会造成企业品牌压力。研究结果表明,媒体对煤电的普遍看法是负面的,这可能会影响企业的决策。媒体对煤电的大量负面情绪,可能盖过了发展更清洁的煤电以及碳捕获、储存和利用等相关技术的好处。媒体对煤电的负面情绪可能会削弱相关不太知名技术的正面形象。证据提供了媒体对煤电相关撤资决策的影响和对决策的潜在影响。

Notions of progress have changed over the last two centuries; however, attempts at improving living conditions have remained. Since there has been a change toward more urban living, notions of progress have changed from the collective to the individual. What are the implications of various notions of progress, especially when they are at odds with foundational collective articulations of the common good? The purpose of this article is to analyse the evolution of notions of progress and to discuss their most recent iterations in contexts of the Anthropocene. It is hypothesised that progress in the Anthropocene has generated a double awareness of plenty and scarcity. The argument is that planning professionals are severely burdened by their background, moral and ethical responsibility to think and lead collective transformations, which go beyond self. The key finding includes the identification of implications for professional planning practice.
在过去的两个世纪里,进步的概念发生了变化;但是,改善生活条件的努力仍然存在。由于城市生活的变化,进步的概念已经从集体转变为个人。各种进步概念的含义是什么,特别是当它们与共同利益的基本集体表达不一致时?本文的目的是分析进步概念的演变,并讨论它们在人类世背景下的最新迭代。据推测,人类世的进步已经产生了丰富和稀缺的双重意识。他们的论点是,规划专业人士背负着沉重的背景、道德和伦理责任,要思考和领导集体变革,而这种变革超越了个人。主要发现包括对专业规划实践的影响的识别。

This study is set out to assess surface water quality of three groups of chemical (pH, COD, NH4+), of physics (TSS) and of microorganisms (Coliform) in the Cam Pha mining area, northeast Vietnam. GIS and hierarchical clustering technique were used for interpolation and grouping samples that have similar water quality, respectively. The results showed that surface water quality was heavily contaminated. All of indicators do not meet Vietnam's National Technical Regulations (NTR), especially COD and TSS beyond NTR about ten times at many locations such as TSS at Ha Rang stream, NH4+ at Cau Four River and COD at Khe Sim stream. The worst and best water quality was detected at Ha Rang and Khe Sim and Lep My, Khe Re, and Ong Linh streams, respectively. The results of this study demonstrated GIS and hierarchical clustering technique are effective methods for surface water quality assessments.
本研究旨在评估越南东北部Cam Pha矿区三组化学物质(pH、COD、NH4+)、物理物质(TSS)和微生物(大肠杆菌)的地表水质量。分别采用GIS和层次聚类技术对水质相似的样本进行插值和分组。结果表明,地表水水质受到严重污染。所有指标都不符合越南国家技术法规(NTR),尤其是COD和TSS在许多地方超过NTR约十倍,如Ha Rang河的TSS、Cau Four河的NH4+和Khe Sim河的COD。Ha Rang和Khe Sim以及Lep My、Khe Re和Ong Linh溪流的水质分别最差和最好。研究结果表明,GIS和层次聚类技术是地表水水质评价的有效方法。

The Kyoto Protocol set up the so-called 'clean development mechanism' (CDM) to help industrialised countries to meet their emission targets. This is made possible through allowing the use of emission credits generated by emission reduction projects undertaken in developing countries. Two important issues surround the implementation of CDM: the 'low-hanging fruits' (LHF) and the alternative baseline types. To examine the interactions between these issues, we have modelled the behaviour of a monopolistic firm with the possibility of participating in CDM projects. Under an ex-ante baseline, the CDM project increases marginal cost during the first period. Consequently, the output produced by the firm decreases and emissions are reduced. In our study, the LHF problem occurs if the firm does not take into account the future emission reduction or limitation commitments and the irreversibility aspect of abatement measures. Therefore, the increase in the myopic marginal cost is higher than predicted. Under an ex-post baseline, the CDM project decreases marginal cost, increasing the firm's output level. The low-hanging fruits problem takes place if the marginal cost in the myopic behaviour decreases more than predicted. In our study, the extent of the LHF problem increases under a permits' endowment effect but decreases under the irreversibility effect.
《京都议定书》建立了所谓的“清洁发展机制”,以帮助工业化国家实现其排放目标。这是通过允许使用发展中国家开展的减排项目产生的排放信用额实现的。关于清洁发展机制的实施,有两个重要问题:“唾手可得的成果”和替代基准类型。为了研究这些问题之间的相互作用,我们对有可能参与清洁发展机制项目的垄断公司的行为进行了建模。根据事前基准,清洁发展机制项目在第一阶段增加了边际成本。因此,该公司的产量减少,排放量减少。在我们的研究中,如果公司没有考虑到未来的减排或限制承诺以及减排措施的不可逆转性,就会出现LHF问题。因此,短视边际成本的增长高于预测。在事后基准下,CDM项目降低了边际成本,提高了公司的产出水平。如果短视行为的边际成本下降幅度超过预测,就会出现低挂果问题。在我们的研究中,LHF问题的程度在许可证的捐赠效应下增加,但在不可逆效应下减少。
