Harsh A.H.

This paper provides an overview of CCUS technology, explaining the processes of CO2 capture, utilization, and storage, and their importance. It outlines the role and challenges of CCUS in achieving a decarbonized society.

Sha F.

This paper proposes a method for the controllable synthesis of various calcium carbonate (CaCO3) morphologies based on a CCUS (Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage) perspective. It demonstrates the potential for CO2 fixation through min…

Zhang S.

This paper analyzes the design of green bonds using a double-barrier option framework. It applies mathematical modeling to pricing and risk management, exploring optimal structures for both investors and issuers. The study strengthens the t…

Kumar M.

This paper compares investor strategies between green bond markets and traditional bond markets, revealing unique investor characteristics and market dynamics. It provides empirical insights into the efficiency and investor preferences of g…

Espinosa-Flor S.I.

This paper examines the ethical and economic foundations of emissions trading and carbon markets, contrasting the 'right to pollute' with the 'duty to mitigate' to discuss the legitimacy and design principles of emissions trading schemes. I…

Cuevas S.

This paper provides a narrative synthesis of the health co-benefits and trade-offs of carbon pricing, highlighting how such policies can improve air quality and public health while also posing risks of energy cost increases. It offers insig…

Koo Y.

This paper analyzes how emissions trading systems (ETS) have differentiated impacts depending on firm size. It suggests that cost burdens and competitiveness effects may differ between large and small firms, highlighting the importance of s…

Tamasiga P.

This paper empirically examines the impact of ESG disclosure on firm value and performance, exploring its potential for strategic value creation beyond mere compliance.

Minh T.N.

This empirical study examines how ESG disclosure affects firm profitability in an emerging market, highlighting the moderating roles of state ownership, board gender diversity, and board independence. Findings suggest that governance factor…

Hao X.

This paper uses evolutionary game theory to analyze the mechanisms behind greenwashing in ESG disclosure. It examines how regulatory stringency and audit intensity influence corporate strategies, identifying conditions for effective policy …

Hawkins J.W.

This empirical study shows that introducing high-yield dairy cattle breeds in Tanzania improves farmer incomes, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and lowers dairy import dependency. It highlights the potential for climate mitigation and eco…

Dadhich J.P.

This paper estimates the greenhouse gas emissions across the life cycle of infant milk formula sold in selected Asia Pacific countries, quantifying the climate impact of infant nutrition choices. It highlights the significance of supply cha…

Özen E.

This study empirically investigates the impact of digital banking adoption on greenhouse gas emissions in Turkey. It examines whether digitalization reduces emissions through decreased paper use and physical infrastructure, offering policy …

Harris A.

This paper proposes a probabilistic fleet analysis method to model energy consumption, life cycle cost, and GHG emissions of bus technologies. It compares different bus options (diesel, hybrid, electric, etc.) under uncertainty, supporting …

Solilová V.

This paper examines the evaluation of greenhouse gas emissions and related aspects in the Czech Republic. Specific findings are unclear, but it likely analyzes emission trends and policy implications.
