This study explores sociodemographic differences in climate change concern and pro-environmental behaviours by socioeconomic status, their association with wellbeing, and whether experiences of climate change (e.g. residing in flood-affected or temperature-changing areas) mediate wellbeing outcomes. Using data from Understanding Society, a national panel survey in England (2018/19, n = 24,950, age 16+), the study examined climate concern, 11 pro-environmental behaviours, satisfaction with these behaviours, and three wellbeing outcomes: life satisfaction, optimism, and psychological distress. Data were spatially linked with flood (2010-18) and summer temperature changes (2001-2020). Climate concern varied by sociodemographic factors, with older and disadvantaged groups most satisfied with their behaviours. Individuals satisfied with their environmental actions reported better wellbeing, while dissatisfaction was linked to distress and worse life satisfaction. However, pro-environmental behaviours themselves were not associated with wellbeing. Residing in flood-affected or temperature-changing areas also showed no link to wellbeing. Addressing wellbeing impacts related to climate concern requires targeted mitigation strategies, especially for those dissatisfied with their environmental actions. Pro-environmental behaviours could act to mitigate against the potential adverse effects of eco-anxiety.","PeriodicalId":29858,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Environment","volume":"11 1","pages":"2500182"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12306679/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144754643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Buyouts, the purchase of an eligible property with the intent to reduce risk, have emerged as a promising strategy; yet, their implementation faces challenges related to cost and the identification of willing participants. To explore this issue, a cross-sectional study (N = 130) was conducted, focusing on the factors influencing willingness to participate in buyout programs. The study found that residents living near Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) facilities and in flood-prone areas are significantly more likely to consider buyouts (Odds Ratio = 3.416, P-Value <0.001), even after adjustments for various factors. This finding is pivotal, as it narrows the focus to a specific geographic region, which not only bears the brunt of adverse health impacts but also presents an opportunity for targeted interventions. The introduction of green space solutions in these high-risk zones also emerges as a feasible improvement strategy, offering potential health benefits to the community. This research sheds light on the nuances of implementing buyout programs in environmentally burdened communities, providing valuable insights for policymakers and urban planners seeking to enhance public health outcomes.","PeriodicalId":29858,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Environment","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12425489/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145065853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Particularly, fruit tree-based agroforestry practice plays a significant role in improving productivity as well as soil fertility management. This study aimed to determine the contribution of on-farm avocado fruit tree-based agroforestry practice on selected soil physicochemical properties in the case of Inguti small watershed. Field survey and laboratory analyses were carried out based on selected physicochemical properties. Soil samples were taken from 12 sample avocado trees at 3 radial distances (under, near, and far from tree canopy) and two depths (0–20 cm and 20–40 cm) in four directions. Soil composite samples were taken for laboratory analysis. To investigate its contribution to selected soil’s physicochemical properties texture, bulk density, organic matter and carbon, pH, total nitrogen, available phosphorus, and available potassium were considered and the significant variation among treatments were analyzed. Based on the result of the study, except soil texture and soil pH, all other investigated soil physical (bulk density) and chemical properties (organic matter, organic carbon, total nitrogen, available phosphorus and potassium) were significantly varied for distance from avocado tree and soil depth from the surface with a p-value of bulk density P < 0.000 and 0.001), organic matter (P < 0.000 and 0.005), organic carbon (P < 0.000 and 0.006), pH (P < 0.00 and 0.626ns), total nitrogen (P < 0.000 and 0.006), available phosphorus (P < 0.002 and 0.01) and potassium (P < 0.002 and 0.01) for distance and depth respectively. So, on-farm avocado (Persea americana) has a significant contribution to soil physicochemical properties in the study watershed.","PeriodicalId":29858,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Environment","volume":"97 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138596093","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}

However, to date, there has been relatively little focus on holistically developed frameworks to assess farmers’ SA potential or their linkage to farmers’ readiness for SA practices such as adopting more organics in farming, particularly in Sri Lanka. To address this gap, we developed a conceptual model to determine farmers’ resilience in implementing more organic use in farming. The model developed was a philosophical combination of ecosystem resilience theory, the rural livelihood assessment framework, and the dimensions of personal readiness to commit to or experience an action. We derived composite indicators to explain the variances of these constructs through a detailed literature review, followed by pre-testing indicators. Data were collected from 386 participants using a structured questionnaire consisting of 119 items. Partial least squares structural equation modelling techniques were used to analyze the variables and path coefficients of the model. Farmers’ sustainable agricultural potential (SAP) was found to be moderately strong in this rice cultivation region. This potential positively influences their readiness for adapting more organics in farming. Some farmers perceived government support as effective. However, this support has not yet been transformed into organic adaptation. Natural capital was identified as the most influential factor in organic farming. Farmers’ education, gender, the extent of sowing, farming methods, and agro-input type were moderating factors between SAP and their readiness for organic matter. Farmers did not deny organic adaptation and understood the need to reduce the use of chemicals.","PeriodicalId":29858,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Environment","volume":"1 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138594672","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}
