“…Since the coupling coordination degree between green economic efficiency and ecological welfare performance is in the interval [0, 1], which is a “restricted dependent variable”, the Tobit model can solve the problem of restricted dependent variables well [ 74 , 75 , 76 ]. Therefore, this paper selected the Tobit model to explore the factors that may affect the coordinated development of ecological welfare performance and green economic efficiency.…”

China’s high-speed economic growth and severe environmental problems have resulted in a poor Environmental Performance Index and have affected China’s sustainable development and ecological welfare improvement. Therefore, exploring whether there is a certain relationship between the two and their influencing factors is an important way and a breakthrough to solve the problems regarding green economic progress and ecological welfare enhancement. To this end, by using the undesirable slack-based measure (SBM) model, this paper measures the ecological welfare performance and the green economic efficiency of 11 cities in Zhejiang Province, China, from 2000 to 2019. Through the methods of spatiotemporal evolution, coefficient of variation, coupling coordination degree, and the Tobit model, we found that: (1) The development trend of urban green economic efficiency and ecological welfare performance were both in a “U” shape that first fell and then rose; (2) The coupling coordination degree between green economic efficiency and ecological welfare performance showed a wave-like upward trend as a whole and most cities have entered a more advanced coupling coordination stage during the study period. The coefficient of variation revealed a downward trend; (3) The urbanization level, industrial structure, and government investment can promote the regional coordinated development, while the industrialization degree and the opening level had a negative impact on it; (4) The “Two Mountains” theory was beneficial to the improvement of regional urban green economic efficiency and ecological welfare performance and their coordinated development both in theory and practice. Finally, according to the findings, we offer relevant suggestions on making good use of the country’s preferential policies and informatization means from the perspective of the regional coordinated development.

How to facilitate collaborative development between the enterprise and the environment under the dual constraints of resources and the environment is the focus of today's green supply chain management system research. Through the performance evaluation of the green supply chain, we can understand the operation of the whole supply chain and its shortcomings, provide a basis for improving related processes, and have important practical significance for improving the competitiveness and protection of its products. First of all, by summarising and analysing the research status of sustainable supply chain management in different countries, the research idea and overall background of this paper are proposed. It discusses the theory of sustainable supply chain management and the performance evaluation system and calculation types of sustainable supply chain management. Finally, the relative weight of each index is determined based on the sustainability calculation method, and then the decentralisation degree of the index is constructed. During this period, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method is used to evaluate the performance of sustainable supply chain, conduct case analysis and summary, and evaluate the performance of green supply chain component in economic, social, environmental and other aspects. In this paper, representative companies are selected as examples to evaluate their green supply chain management performance, and the evaluation algorithm is studied based on sustainable calculation method. The results show that a reasonable and effective evaluation of the enterprise performance of green supply chain management and a sustainable algorithm study can effectively identify potential problems in the operation of the company and improve the overall operation of the company at this stage.

“…Cui addressed airline energy efficiency measures, underscoring the importance of considering aviation carbon emissions and highlighting the relevance of energy efficiency determinants in the aviation sector [11]. Chen et al conducted an empirical study on environmental efficiency measurements, defining airline environmental efficiency and reflecting on the influencing factors, thus contributing to a comprehensive understanding of determinants in the airline industry [12]. These investigations reveal the critical interplay between passenger demand, operational practices, and sustainability efforts, underscoring the significant impact of technical, operational, environmental, and economic factors on airline performance and environmental footprint.…”

Carbon emission intensity is an important index reflecting an entity’s low-carbon competitiveness. This paper presents an extended logarithmic mean divisia index (LMDI) model to dissect carbon intensity within China’s civil aviation from 1998 to 2019, revealing a significant reduction in CO2 emissions per air transport revenue. It attributes this decrease to technological advancements, optimized fleet structures, and improved operational efficiencies, highlighting the impact of larger, more efficient aircraft and enhanced load factors. The study also explores economic factors influencing carbon efficiency, suggesting a comprehensive approach encompassing technological innovation and strategic operational improvements for sustainable aviation development.
