Responsible consumption is considered a primary objective for social and economic development and at the same time essential for sustainable development. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relevance of SDG-12, particularly in responsible consumption, in Colombia, Valle del Cauca, and Tuluá, to establish the alignment of the goals that are presented at the national, regional, and local levels, and that contributes to the country advances in the fulfillment of this objective. Initially, a theoretical analysis was carried out where the main approaches that responsible consumption has had over time were identified; subsequently, the analysis of the relevance of responsible consumption at different scales was carried out, for which the adaptation of an alignment methodology of the SDGs was carried out, using the Rapid Integrated Assessment tool – RIA; SPSS software was used for data analysis. The above, made it possible to establish the contribution made from the national to the local level, for the fulfillment of the goals of SDG-12. It was identified that in the country all the goals of SDG 12 were prioritized, although several have a low level of coverage; in Valle del Cauca and Tuluá, some goals are not prioritized.

In the field of urban transformation interventions, the “privatization” of the potential indirect benefits is a crucial issue. In fact, if not adequately recaptured and managed they can favor the private developers or owners by reducing the share of acquirable public resources intended for the realization of new infrastructures and services. For this reason, the Extraordinary Urbanization Contribution (EUC) was introduced in Italy in 2014 with Art. 16, co.4 of DPR n. 380/2001 to allow an equitable redistribution - between the public and private subjects involved - of the surplus value generated by urban variant interventions. The lack of univocal guidance for determining this contribution has made its application difficult, therefore the work aims to provide a rational and methodological rigorous decision support model intended for the public administration for assessing the surplus value generated by complex urban variant intervention. Its methodological structure is based on goal programming optimization principles. In particular, the innovative contribution of the model is to provide the assessment of the surplus value of “complex” urban variant interventions, or those for which the inclusion of the “time” factor could affect the results and the conveniences of the parties involved. For these reasons, different discount rate values are assumed. The main findings regard the possibility of being used for supporting the public administrations in the correct application of the national regulations, also consistent with the value recapture and value sharing research streams, and for identifying the extra-profit margins and conveniences of the private subject involved.

Due to global warming, the risk of floods is constantly increasing due to the drying up of the soil, followed by more intense rain showers and storms. Therefore, it is essential to pay more attention to this topic now. The article deals with the design of flood protection in the municipality. A flood control measure is proposed for each type of slope of the soil relief in which the municipality is located. Based on the proposed measures, the article aims to minimize the level of flood risk to the lowest possible level with the use of flood protection aimed at the non-urban area of the municipality. The proposed measures are intended not only for smaller municipalities but also for cities.

Indonesia is a legal state in Southeast Asia. Therefore every policy that is born must be following applicable regulations, unfortunately, not all objects in Indonesia have regulations that govern and one of them is the Bengawan Solo watershed. This situation makes the Bengawan Solo watershed vulnerable to damage and difficult to develop. Even though the Bengawan Solo watershed has great potential, one of which is the development of water tourism. With natural conditions that support the development of water tourism, it is suitable to be developed in the Bengawan Solo watershed area, but before it is developed into water tourism, it should have special regulations for the sustainability of the Bengawan Solo watershed. This research is research that uses qualitative data and a critical legal approach, then coupled with field observations. The results of the research in this study are: (1) there are no specific rules regarding the Bengawan Solo watershed, but there are rules that are still general regarding Bengawan Solo management policies. (2) the potential for the development of water tourism in the Bengawan Solo watershed is quite potent and has an impact on the preservation of the Bengawn Solo watershed and provides additional income for the community. (3) the opportunity to make special regulations regarding the Bengawan Solo watershed still exists, because it can take as an example the presidential regulation regarding the Citarum watershed.

The pollution of Plumbum heavy metal in water is an environmental concern. Plumbum (Pb) can be found in water naturally and due to human activities. This study aimed to analyze Plumbum heavy metal’s content in the waters of Batu Jaya village in Southeast Sulawesi. The research method employed was descriptive, and the samples were tested for Plumbum heavy metal content using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The study revealed that several stations (ST) exceeded the threshold, including ST 2 with 0.0217 mg/l, ST 3 with 0.0220 mg/l, ST 5 with 0.0182 mg/l, ST 6 with 0.0141 mg/l, and ST 10 with 0.0312 mg/l. On the other hand, other stations, namely ST 1, 4, 7, 8, and 9, remained within acceptable limits. Consequently, Plumbum heavy metal is present in the waters of Batu Jaya village, South Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. The pollution originates from human activities in the vicinity of the port and from ship traffic passing through the area.
水中重金属铅的污染是一个令人关注的环境问题。铅可以在水中自然存在，也可以由于人类活动而存在。本研究旨在分析苏拉威西岛东南部Batu Jaya村水域重金属铅的含量。采用描述性研究方法，用原子吸收分光光度法测定样品中重金属铅的含量。研究发现，多个监测站(ST)超过阈值，其中ST 2为0.0217 mg/l, ST 3为0.0220 mg/l, ST 5为0.0182 mg/l, ST 6为0.0141 mg/l, ST 10为0.0312 mg/l。另一方面，其他台站，即ST 1、4、7、8和9仍然在可接受的范围内。因此，铅重金属存在于Batu Jaya村的水域，南科纳威摄政，东南苏拉威西省，印度尼西亚。污染来自港口附近的人类活动和通过该地区的船舶交通。

Farmers make decisions with incomplete information. Industrial producers can determine the number of products they produce using different inputs. Farmers find it impossible. The paper aims to measure farmers’ perception of sources of production risk. For this purpose, a questionnaire was designed based on the researched literature and the reality of the farms. We conducted face-to-face interviews with 260 farmers to assess how they assess sources of production risk. We measured perception using a 1-to-5 Likert scale psychometric rating. From the descriptive statistical analysis, the perception of the farmers for the production risk is very high. Also, the perception of the five sources of risk (drought, flooding, low temperature, non-quality factors of production, and damage) varies from high to very high. While from the regression analysis, the statistically significant variables are drought and flood. Their impact is 86% on production risk.

The global war has disrupted trade, production, and consumption, leading to increased commodity prices and a threat to global food security. The article examines the long-term consequences of the war on global food and environmental security, focusing on disruptions in food markets and infrastructure destruction. The study utilizes the FAOSTAT database and food security indicators to assess the state of food security in Russia and Ukraine from 2010 to 2021. The results reveal numerous negative direct and indirect effects on food and environmental security, with the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) being among the most affected regions. Prior to the Russian invasion in February 2022, Ukraine was a major grain exporter to the MENA region. However, the war caused extreme volatility in food insecurity. Among the key consequences of the war, it should be mentioned about the decrease in the volume of production of agricultural products in Ukraine due to the reduction of cultivated areas as a result of blockades and destruction, which led to export restrictions, and loss of producers’ income. The countries of the Global South are most vulnerable to the food crisis (Turkey, Egypt, Georgia, Tunisia, Morocco, Libya), given the significant import dependence on Ukraine and the significant increase in product prices. The war has also resulted in pollution of water and land resources, air contamination, supply and sewage problems, and deteriorating sanitary conditions.

Mapping of Cultural Heritage is a crucial process aiming at safeguarding and promoting the unique identity, history, and traditions of a particular community or region. This practice involves the documentation, conservation, and interpretation of various aspects of Cultural Heritage, which can be conducted through Geomatics techniques including the use of various tools and methods to collect, analyze, and visualize spatial data related to heritage sites. The same techniques can be used for the identification and subsequent cataloging of unsafe buildings thus creating a cadastre useful for authorities, urban planners, and building management organizations to identify, monitor and address unsafe structures. In this context, this paper presents an automatic, innovative, and experimental system through which it has been possible to map the Cultural Heritage in a fraction of the province of Reggio Calabria and, at the same time, to build a cadastre of unsafe structures. A prototype drone was programmed to acquire the images, subsequently pre-processed using commercial software and analyzed using Machine Learning techniques and dedicated software. An Open GIS (Geographic Information System), then, made it possible to view the archaeological heritage sites and the dangerous and damaged buildings, with identified and cataloged cracks. In relation to the monitoring of Cultural Heritage and old, unsafe buildings, several different technologies including Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and high-resolution satellite imagery are being successfully used, which involve, however, data processing complexity and the need for specialized expertise. By overcoming the challenges of these traditional methods, this proposed approach holds promise in facilitating comprehensive Cultural Heritage monitoring and management even in smaller and less resource-rich areas. The use of drones for data acquisition and integration into a well-implemented GIS, in fact, could offer a potential solution to monitor Cultural Heritage and assess the condition of existing buildings, while saving time and costs in the process.

Strategic management accounting is the last stage of evolution in management accounting, seeking to contribute strategic information to support strategic decision-making and strategic management; this information is obtained from the application of several strategic management accounting techniques for collecting superior information. This paper aims to determine the role of strategic management accounting in the financial performance of low-cost airlines, seeking to encourage its adoption, implementation, and use for these types of companies. It relies on a literature review regarding strategic management accounting and the airline industry, especially with documents obtained from Scopus and Web of Science. Besides, a questionnaire was applied to experts in this industry, along with the application of a spline regression model for data analysis. The study revealed that the contribution of strategic management accounting in the financial performance of the analyzed low-cost airlines is influenced by decision-making and decision-implementation processes, management accountants who provide external, non-financial, and forward-looking information are the main actors in the adoption, implementation, and the use of strategic management accounting in the analyzed low-cost airlines.
战略管理会计是管理会计发展的最后阶段，旨在为战略决策和战略管理提供战略信息；这些信息是通过应用几种战略管理会计技术来收集高级信息而获得的。本文旨在确定战略管理会计在低成本航空公司财务绩效中的作用，并鼓励这类公司采用、实施和使用战略管理会计。它依赖于关于战略管理会计和航空业的文献综述，特别是从Scopus和Web of Science获得的文件。此外，还对该行业的专家进行了问卷调查，并应用样条回归模型进行数据分析。研究表明，战略管理会计对所分析的低成本航空公司财务业绩的贡献受到决策和决策实施过程的影响，提供外部、非财务和前瞻性信息的管理会计师是采用、实施，以及运用战略管理会计对低成本航空公司进行分析。
