The research captures supply chain operations using the Gradient Boosting Regressor (GBR) model with real‐time data from surveys and Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking. These predictions were analysed using LCSA to assess the sustainability impacts of Hydrogen Fuel Light Commercial Vehicles (HFLCVs) and Electric Light Commercial Vehicles (ELCVs) compared to traditional fuel‐based vehicles. HFLCVs show remarkable reductions in ecosystem and health damage by 58% and 61%, indicating substantial environmental and health benefits. Findings suggest that strategic investment in hydrogen‐fuel and electric LCVs can significantly decrease operational costs and environmental impacts, making them crucial for advancing sustainable urban logistics. This research highlights the benefits and possibilities of using an integrated data‐driven approach to achieve urban sustainability, thus creating an urgency to shift policies favouring green urban freight systems.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142981945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their environmental performance depends on their employees' proenvironmental behavior and the firm's sustainability policies. Previous research has provided evidence that environmentally specific servant leadership, transformational leadership, ethical leadership, spiritual leadership, and charismatic (value‐based) leadership enhance employee organizational citizenship behavior toward the environment (OCBE). However, limited research examines the role of sustainability‐oriented leadership (SOL) in maturing employees' OCBE. This research examines the SOL–employee OCBE linkage mediated through mechanisms like perceived environmental justice and affective commitment to one's supervisor under varying permutations of employee job embeddedness (EJE). More specifically, this paper examines SOL's direct, indirect, and moderated effects on OCBE through perceived environmental justice and employee commitment toward the leader under disparate EJE levels. The empirical findings confirm a direct impact of SOL on employees' OCBE. It was also evident that SOL significantly and indirectly influences employees' OCBE through procedural environmental justice under disparate levels of job embeddedness. The paper advances academic and managerial understanding on OCBE proliferate in organization. Besides enriching literature, the study's findings provide valuable insights to organizations seeking to enhance OCBE through fostering SOL, PEJ, and EJE.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"74 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142981946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there is a lack of a comprehensive framework to define and implement climate change mitigation strategies in organisations. The current study aims to fill this gap by performing a critical review of existing schemes that can make a partial contribution to the definition of such strategies. We found 25 schemes used by private sector or studied in the literature by international NGOs and academic searcher and evaluated them based on 15 criteria developed for this study in order to cover key components of an effective framework for CCMS in organisations. No scheme fulfils all the criteria, but significant differences are observed between them, ranging from 0% to 80% of the criteria met. Based on this analysis, we propose a first harmonized five‐step iterative framework to define organisational climate change mitigation strategies. Eventually, the results of the schemes review and the framework proposal draw up a research agenda to derive robust, credible and operational climate strategies at organizational levels.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142961403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through a survey of 462 manufacturing SMEs, the research uncovers the complex interrelationships between sustainability practices and their impact on resource efficiency. The findings reveal four distinct sustainability pathways: the first underscores the critical importance of environmental dimensions and enabling conditions without robust social dimensions and innovative practices. The second highlights the significance of environmental and enabling conditions, even when technological innovativeness is limited. The third and fourth pathways emphasize the pivotal role of social dimensions and technological innovation, with innovative practices as supportive elements. Additionally, two typologies emerge, illustrating the integration of environmental and social dimensions with enabling conditions and the synergy between technological innovation, social dimensions, and innovative practices. This research advances the discourse on sustainability within SMEs, emphasizing the necessity for reduced resource consumption, conservation, efficient production, circular economy principles, and waste minimization. The findings suggest that achieving SDG 8.4 by 2030, which targets global resource efficiency, hinges on adopting these sustainable pathways with emphasis on Ghanaian SMEs. This study provides a deeper understanding of sustainability practices among developing economy SMEs, shedding light on the intricate dynamics that enhance resource management. It offers critical insights for policymakers and practitioners seeking to promote sustainability in local SMEs, particularly in Ghana, advocating for a holistic approach that considers the multifaceted nature of sustainability.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142936624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis, rooted in the context of the Paris Agreement and sustainable finance, employs a comprehensive dataset of the top 512 listed Indian companies from 2012 to 2023. Our findings reveal that high ESG scores significantly bolster company resilience during financial distress, highlighting the dual benefits of sustainable practices on corporate stability and environmental impact. Additionally, the paper underscores the pivotal role of wavelet analysis in capturing the multifaceted effects of ESG scores across various industries and financial distress quantiles, thereby offering a more nuanced understanding of ESG impacts. These insights not only contribute to the academic discourse on sustainable finance but also offer practical implications for policymakers and corporate strategists aiming to align financial performance with sustainable development goals (SDGs). ESG scores at which financial distress no longer negatively affects the firm's value are provided. These ESG scores range between 33.153 and 33.456 and are driven by the median of the conditional distribution of the firm's value. Policy implications are discussed.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"118 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142940263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, to facilitate its implementation and dissemination, it is necessary to validate the application of CE approaches in real case studies and as well as to verify their economic sustainability. This paper analyses the adoption of different circular paths of real case studies in the olive oil supply chain and assesses their degree of circularity through the Material Circularity Indicator (MCI) and economic sustainability through life cycle costing (LCC). As evidenced in the scientific literature, these methodologies represent the optimal approach to assess the impact of circularity in agri‐food processes on companies' sustainability strategies. Moreover, the results can be integrated to facilitate progress toward ever‐greater sustainability. Findings show that the degree of circularity varies according to the different strategies adopted, highlighting better economic viability of firms that adopt CE strategies, whose profits are less sensitive to changes in input and output prices and therefore more resilient from an economic point of view when market fluctuations occur.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142935694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
