Ionic liquids (ILs) have been proposed as a more benign replacement to toxic and volatile organic solvents in enzymatic biodiesel production, used to minimize methanol inhibition effect and enhance the stability of immobilized enzyme. Despite their several advantages, ILs are expensive, which...

The purpose of this study is to explore long run affiliations between exports and carbon dioxide emissions. This paper examines thirty-seven countries over the period 1960 to 2010 and uses the Toda and Yamamoto causality approach to investigate the direction of causal links. The results reveal...

The purpose of this paper is to investigate how nearby sourcing versus long-distance sourcing affects the ecological friendliness-operationalized in terms of energy efficiency-of a supply chain for a non-food item in a developing country. Using case research, we show that the average energy...

In its decarbonization efforts, the European Union aims to decrease energy consumption through technological advances. One of the most prominent advances is the increased extension and utilization of digital information and communication technologies. However, there is little understanding of...

This paper provides estimates of household energy consumption in the United States in 2019 by adding passenger transportation to residential consumption. It also separates household energy consumption into two components: standard and optional and shows that the latter accounts for 29 percent of...

The present research aims to investigate the influence of remittance inflows on the ecological footprint (EFP). It also seeks to evaluate the interactive effects of technological innovation and financial development on the ecological footprint covering the panel data for 94 countries from 1980...

Climate change mitigation is one of the greatest human challenges. The associated transformation of energy supply and demand to low-carbon energy sources requires not only technical solutions, but also involves consumers and as such, represents a holistic societal process. To date, however, the...

This study was aimed at examining the linkages between corruption, environmental sustainability, and economic performance. It was motivated by the quest to test the validity of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis in Nigerian. The EKC hypothesis explains the nexus between economic...

Raforkugeiranum á Íslandi, orkunotkun, skipulagi og auðlindir sem enn eru ónýttar er lýst og gefið stutt yfirlit yfir orkuspár sem eru helstu forsendur orkuhönnunar og aflspár sem eru forsendur aflhönnunar raforkukerfa. Íslenska raforkukerfið er orkuhannað vatnsaflskerfi, sem...

More efficient and sustainable energy consumption behaviors are crucial to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. This paper examines how dynamic personal pricing and externality cost incentives interact and affect energy conservation behaviors. We conduct an online lab experiment in...
