The circular economy proposition is not a novel concept. However, it has recently stimulated sustainable consumption and production ideas on remanufacturing, refurbishing and recycling of materials. A thorough literature review suggests that the circular economy’s regenerative systems are...

Natural gas extracted form shale reached record production totals in 2015 in the United States and the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) forecasts natural gas production will continue to increase. Wastes from shale gas extraction can contain the radioactive isotopes radium-226 (Ra-226)...

The saying ‘The road to hell is paved with good intentions’ could have been coined to describe the 5,000 years journey to what is today known as ESG. This references the progression, if that indeed is the correct term, outlined in the comprehensive, informed and informative but...

The circular economy (CE) has recently stimulated debates on sustainable consumption and production; Its regenerative systems minimise the environmental impact as practitioner reduce their externalities, including; waste, emissions, and energy leakages through the use and reuse of resources....

This study critically examined the legal framework for the development of nuclear energy in Nigeria. It analyzed the concept and historical development of nuclear energy, highlighted the benefits and disadvantages inherent in the development of nuclear capacity and the utilization of nuclear...
