The study sought to examine the repercussions of livelihood activities on the riparian vegetation of the Black Volta Basin in the Lawra Municipality. Estimates of Shannon Diversity Index (0.686) and Simpson's Index (1.5328) of the vegetation of the Black Volta Basin in the Lawra Municiplaity demonstrate a diminished riparian vegetation due to livelihood activities as compared to Shannon Diversity Index (1.6406) and Simpson's Index (3.5511) of the riparian vegetation of the Burkina Faso site across the Black Volta Basin. This is supported by satellite images which justifies a reduction in riparian vegetation of the Black Volta Basin in the year 2020 and 2021 as compared to the year 2000 and 2001. It is recommended that local stakeholders of the riparian vegetation of the study area should enact by-laws in order regulate the exploitation of riparian vegetation species.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100674,"journal":{"name":"Innovation and Green Development","volume":"2 4","pages":"Article 100090"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49880057","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this model, finite replenishment rate is considered and managed by the forward as well as reverse supply chain. In the beginning, the remanufactured and newly manufactured products are stored in owned warehouses (OW) that have limited storage space and for the excess amount; suppliers hire a rented warehouses (RW) at a higher holding cost than owning warehouses. The objective of this model is to obtain the optimal production and remanufacturing strategies to minimize the total relevant costs of the system. The paper concludes with an illustration of numerical data and a sensitivity analysis. Based on the results, the practitioners are advised to reduce the cycle length if the production rate is relevantly high.

Our main findings are as follows: there is a negative correlation between FDI and CO2 emissions in manufacturing. Specifically, FDI has a positive effect on reducing carbon emissions in capital-intensive, technology-intensive, and labor-intensive manufacturing industries, with the strongest effect observed in labor-intensive industries. Foreign investment can contribute to improving energy efficiency in China's manufacturing sector, and there is potential for environmental regulation to further reduce carbon emissions in resource-intensive manufacturing.

Over the past decade, information and communication technology (ICT) usage has increased which may increase energy utilization and GHG emissions. Conversely, ICT's clean technologies can minimize pollution. Therefore, this study investigated the dynamic influences of ICT, economic growth, population, and energy use on GHG emissions in Malaysia by employing the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach using data from 1990 to 2021. The results of the ARDL bounds test indicated the existence of a long-run link between the variables. The results revealed that a 1% increase in the number of Internet users could increase GHG emissions by 0.013% in the short run but cut GHG emissions by 0.077% in the long run. Additionally, economic growth, population, and energy usage have a positive association with GHG emissions. The robustness of the ARDL outcomes has been checked by using the Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS), Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS), and Canonical Cointegration Regression (CCR) methods. This article offers additional policy proposals for emission reduction and sustainable development by promoting renewable energy use and financing green ICT.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100674,"journal":{"name":"Innovation and Green Development","volume":"2 4","pages":"Article 100085"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49880060","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of the article was to develop a conceptual model of green technology transfer within the university-industry ambit. The methodological procedures were carried out in four distinct phases. The first phase consisted of a literature search regarding technology transfer conceptual models; this bibliographic review was performed using the ISI (Web of Science) platform, grounded on articles published over a period of 27 years from 1995 to 2022. The second search phase was based on the value chain. The third phase had as its objective to apply a questionnaire with open questions to several Brazilian universities. The last phase consisted in developing the conceptual model. From the results, it is possible to integrate the pre-development and post-transfer technology activities, and the process of green technology transfer can be carried out by focusing on the commercial results of technology licensing, including commercial advantages with a sustainable focus.

As a result, the industrial park emerged and prospered with the advantages of clear industrial positioning, optimized functional layout and complete support facilities. Nonetheless, for the environmental management of industrial parks, environmental impact assessment (EIA) should be better applied as an upstream environmental protection means. Thus, in three aspects, this study summarizes the research on EIA in the world and analyzes the effectiveness and development of EIA in Northeast China. First, this study analyzed the status and trends of international research in EIA, based on the Web of Science database and the CiteSpace scientometric software. The number of papers continues to rise. Some countries collaborate closely and bring forth new ideas. Research focuses on environmental management, EIA methodology, and energy issues. Research hotspots are public participation and life cycle methods. Second, to specifically investigate the effectiveness of the EIA of the Northeast Industrial Park in recent years has been profitable for the improvement of the Northeast EIA system and for promoting the environmental management approach of the EIA at the micro level. It has been demonstrated that the effect of 70% EIA implementation is relatively significant with high effectiveness. Third, using a SWOT analysis approach, it aims to identify internal strengths and weaknesses, external opportunities and challenges in the development of the Northeast Industrial Park EIA, and propose a future development strategy for the Northeast Industrial Park EIA at the macro level.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100674,"journal":{"name":"Innovation and Green Development","volume":"2 4","pages":"Article 100072"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49880051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
