Furthermore, we used multiple linear regression, spatial measurement, and mediation effect models to analyze the influence of provincial digital inclusive finance on green economy in China. The results revealed that digital inclusive finance can significantly improve the green economy. In addition, the impact of digital inclusive finance has spillover effects on the green economy, and the digital inclusive finance in a region can have significant impact on green economy in the surrounding areas. Breadth of coverage was found to be a direct mechanism for the effect of digital inclusive finance on green economy. The consumption structure of urban and rural residents plays an intermediary role between digital inclusive finance and green economy. Digital inclusive finance can promote the greening of residents’ consumption structure, and thus affect the greening of the economy.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":540,"journal":{"name":"Environment, Development and Sustainability","volume":"27 12","pages":"29075 - 29103"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145610729","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the findings, China emerges as a leading contributor, considering the total publications, institutions, and core researchers involved. While conventional topics such as groundwater transport and nonpoint pollution continue to be prioritized, there is a growing emphasis on heavy metal, surrogate models, and climate change to meet evolving global environmental challenges.

Using data from 16 emerging countries from 1990 to 2021 and the ARDL model, we highlight that banking sustainability initiatives supported by PPPs effectively reduce the ecological footprint in the short term. Our analysis introduces a novel definition of banking sustainability centered on energy investments through PPPs, offering an innovative perspective compared with traditional green finance approaches. Our results validate the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis, showing that, in the short term, PPPs promote the adoption of renewable energy technologies and circular economy practices, thereby improving environmental policies and supporting sustainable practices. However, we also observe a negative long-term effect, where initial benefits may be undermined by a shift in investments toward less sustainable sectors or external economic shocks. This dynamic underscores the importance of an integrated approach that combines economic growth, financial development, and environmental sustainability. We recommend that emerging economies strengthen banking sustainability policies with stringent standards for green investments, encourage PPPs in the energy sector, and align financial development strategies with environmental objectives. Our findings highlight the need for a holistic approach and innovative financial mechanisms to support sustainable economic growth while minimizing environmental impact.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":540,"journal":{"name":"Environment, Development and Sustainability","volume":"27 12","pages":"29047 - 29073"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145610695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To mitigate these impacts, businesses must prioritize the implementation of Life cycle assessment (LCA) from the design phase to achieve the company's social, environmental, and economic goals through resource conservation and carbon reduction in order to meet carbon neutrality. However, companies face several barriers to the effective implementation of LCA. This study fills the gap by identifying, categorizing, and analyzing major barriers to LCA adoption for packaging decision-making in emerging economies- specifically in Indian contexts. To accomplish this research goal, an extensive literature review was undertaken for barrier identification. The Delphi technique was then used to find the relevant barriers, and the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) technique was employed for barrier analysis to determine the interdependence among the barriers. The research findings revealed that there are seventeen barriers across four categories, where the “Limited understanding of LCA and its potential market advantages (OB3)” is the most significant barrier, followed by a “Lack of knowledgeable personnel of LCA in the packaging sector (OB2)” and “Lack of clarity and guidance of LCA methodology (MB1) in packaging area”, respectively as important barriers. This research broadens the scope of LCA in packaging design by overcoming significant barriers and helping to achieve packaging sustainability. This research provides an invaluable source of information for policymakers and packaging professionals to implement LCA effectively for packaging design and make more informed packaging decisions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":540,"journal":{"name":"Environment, Development and Sustainability","volume":"27 10","pages":"24083 - 24106"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145230376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to encourage the recycling of retired PBs, the government has implemented a deposit policy, and NEV manufacturers have actively invested in advertising to fulfil the Extended Producer Responsibility. This study aims to investigate the effects of deposit policy and advertising investment on recycling decisions and model selection within the closed-loop supply chain (CLSC). Three recycling game models were constructed, both with and without the influence of the deposit policy. MATLAB software is used for numerical simulations, and the selection of the best recovery model is discussed from different perspectives. Results show that: (1) Under different recycling models, the wholesale prices of PBs and the sales prices of NEVs are equal, but the recycling prices and transfer prices differ. (2) The deposit policy and advertising investment both promote the forward decision-making of the CLSC but have the opposite impact on the reverse decision-making. (3) Considering economic benefits, environmental benefits, government surplus, and consumer surplus, it is evident that PB manufacturer and NEV manufacturer alliance recycling model yields relatively better results. (4) When incremental recycling falls below a certain threshold, NEV manufacturers need to carefully consider economic and environmental benefits when determining the levels of advertising investment. These findings can offer valuable suggestions for formulating government deposit policies, selecting power battery recycling models, and determining advertising investments for NEV manufacturers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":540,"journal":{"name":"Environment, Development and Sustainability","volume":"27 10","pages":"24367 - 24395"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145230227","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
