The effects of excessive use of non-renewable energy resources that have led to global climate change and deterioration of the natural environment are highlighted. The priority of sustainable development of the world energy sector is based on increasing consumption of renewable energy resources. The processes of the general world consumption of various types of primary energy and the dynamics of indicators of world bioethanol and biodiesel production during 2000-2018 are analysed. The forecast of consumption of the primary world energy and the production of liquid biofuels has been made for 2019-2025. The results indicate that the world market of bioethanol and biodiesel tends to expand, providing from an economic point of view rational use of energy resources, reducing gasoline and diesel consumption.","PeriodicalId":52429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Global Environmental Issues","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66874107","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 necessity to determine the territorial agroforestry potential for further formation of the agroforestry natural capital and the forest reclamation planning of agricultural landscapes is discussed. The system and mechanisms of the forest environment and economic regulation of sustainable spatial agroforestry in terms of the motive factors' formation and creating linear-type forest shelterbelts by agribusiness entities require the agroforestry reclamation cadaster. The methodology of environment and economic assessment of creating forest shelterbelts from the perspectives of the ecosystem service economy has been improved. Some features of determining the 'total economic value' of forest protective belts have been considered in this article. A system of strategic targets (production, economic, environmental, and social) for environmental and economic regulation of the spatial agroforestry has been proposed.","PeriodicalId":52429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Global Environmental Issues","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66874125","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}

Using the GLS method, the significance and power's impact of political institutions' functioning and the quality of governmental regulation on food security was checked. Considering the findings and results of comparative analysis of EU agricultural policy, the authors allocated the three types of food security drivers: basic (the focus of efforts on reducing corruption and increasing political freedom); enforced (focus on extending the right to vote and improving government efficiency); and intense (ensuring the rule of law).","PeriodicalId":52429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Global Environmental Issues","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66874501","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}

Therefore, we employ autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model to gauge short-and-long-run associations between CO2 emissions and Liberia's key macroeconomic variables. The ARDL long-run outcomes are compared against results from dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS) approach. The short-run outcomes reveal that energy consumption (EC) and real output (GDP) have significant positive impacts on CO2 emissions in Liberia. In the long-run, both ARDL and DOLS estimates show significant positive impacts of EC, real GDP and oil price on CO2 emissions. Hence, we find the existence of the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis for Liberia. Therefore, we argue that EC is the main factor that promotes economic growth in Liberia, but growth in EC and real GDP stimulate CO2 emissions growth. Thus, new carbon free technologies that reduce dependence on primary energy use are required.","PeriodicalId":52429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Global Environmental Issues","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49150108","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}

This article introduces the feasibility of incorporating vernacular device strategies to reduce energy consumption and thereby to more realistically assess the opportunities for adapting these strategies in arid areas. The objective is to develop an overall process focused on the integration of vernacular devices and to realise an effective return for both users and developers by improving energy efficiency. A complexity analysis of the integration of the energetic aspects in several vernacular cases was performed in order to propose design processes that optimise energy performance while ensuring occupants' comfort, based on the proposed building structure morphology. The results concretely illustrate both the interrelation between energy consumption and the various conception choices, and how vernacular devices can condition local energy practices.","PeriodicalId":52429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Global Environmental Issues","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66873889","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}

This study utilises big-data based global media-analysis to clarify the role of coal-power related media-image in company decision-making. Opinion mining by a specific software tool for media-analysis and monitoring is utilised. The analysis bases on the notion that the media-image of company products - or specific technologies - may impact corporate investment and divestment decisions in the energy sector. The assumption is that coal-power related media-image may cause corporate brandimage pressures. The findings indicate that the general media-sentiment towards coal-power is negative, possibly influencing corporate decisions. The large negative media-sentiment towards coal-power may override the benefits of developing cleaner coal-power and related technologies such as carbon capture and storage and utilisation. The negative media-sentiment towards coal-power may mitigate the more positive image of related less-known technologies. Evidence is provided on the media-impact of coal-power related divestment decisions and potential impacts on decision making.","PeriodicalId":52429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Global Environmental Issues","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46876958","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}

Since there has been a change toward more urban living, notions of progress have changed from the collective to the individual. What are the implications of various notions of progress, especially when they are at odds with foundational collective articulations of the common good? The purpose of this article is to analyse the evolution of notions of progress and to discuss their most recent iterations in contexts of the Anthropocene. It is hypothesised that progress in the Anthropocene has generated a double awareness of plenty and scarcity. The argument is that planning professionals are severely burdened by their background, moral and ethical responsibility to think and lead collective transformations, which go beyond self. The key finding includes the identification of implications for professional planning practice.","PeriodicalId":52429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Global Environmental Issues","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45770186","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}

This is made possible through allowing the use of emission credits generated by emission reduction projects undertaken in developing countries. Two important issues surround the implementation of CDM: the 'low-hanging fruits' (LHF) and the alternative baseline types. To examine the interactions between these issues, we have modelled the behaviour of a monopolistic firm with the possibility of participating in CDM projects. Under an ex-ante baseline, the CDM project increases marginal cost during the first period. Consequently, the output produced by the firm decreases and emissions are reduced. In our study, the LHF problem occurs if the firm does not take into account the future emission reduction or limitation commitments and the irreversibility aspect of abatement measures. Therefore, the increase in the myopic marginal cost is higher than predicted. Under an ex-post baseline, the CDM project decreases marginal cost, increasing the firm's output level. The low-hanging fruits problem takes place if the marginal cost in the myopic behaviour decreases more than predicted. In our study, the extent of the LHF problem increases under a permits' endowment effect but decreases under the irreversibility effect.","PeriodicalId":52429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Global Environmental Issues","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48226829","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}
