“…For Circular Economy (hashtag #circulareconomy), no unified definition exists [107]. Circular economy is gaining importance for a sustainable future [108] but represents a rather theoretical concept that companies have tried to implement [109] by reducing their consumption of raw materials, designing more eco-friendly products (eco-design), and recovering raw materials from the waste flow [110,111]. The current emphasis is on the so-called supply chain, where CSR comprises a key component for organizations that deliver economic, social, and environmental benefits [112].…”

“…Finally, some limitations of our study deserve attention. First of all, like other social network analyses, this study focuses only on one social network [39,40,108,109] and on English keywords. Second, the study analyzes the current situation and does not deal with predictions for the future.…”

The increasing popularity of social media worldwide provides us with an opportunity to understand social, cultural, and environmental issues about people’s perception of sustainability. The article aims at identifying the main topics of communication related to hashtag # sustainability based on a communication analysis on the Twitter network. We investigated the perception of sustainability using data from 414,926 Twitter interactions by 223,476 users worldwide. The data were recorded between April 17, 2018 and July 12, 2019. We identified Innovation, Environment, Climate Change, Corporate Social Responsibility, Technology, and Energy as key hashtags in the field of sustainability. In conjunction with this, we identified the six following communities: (1) Environmental Sustainability, (2) Sustainability Awareness, (3) Renewable Energy and Climate Change, (4) Innovative Technology, (5) Green Architecture, and (6) Food Sustainability. The usage of these communities is applicable in marketing communication as well as in the Corporate Social Responsibility activities of the given companies. The results of the analysis give the organizations a possible direction for their sustainable business model improvement via the contribution of society´s voice.

“…Global and dynamic nature of the model, depth and breadth of modeling of the ecological and economic dimensions, long simulation horizons are critical model selection criteria. Based on these criteria, Hanumante et al (2019), Hanumante et al (2020) selected the integrated-planetary model (Whitmore et al, 2006;Shastri et al, 2008b;Kotecha et al, 2013). It has several unique features such as multiple trophic levels, intra-trophic level diversity and an explicit market mechanism based on pricesetting approach (Figure 1).…”

The transition towards Industry 4.0 and circular economy (CE) is increasingly important for the manufacturing sector in the emerging economy context, where culture plays an important role. This study explores how organisational culture, i.e., developmental culture, influences Industry 4.0 and CE transition to achieve a competitive advantage. The findings are based on 354 survey responses from manufacturing firms in Thailand. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was adopted to explore the mediation effect of Industry 4.0 and CE between developmental culture and competitive advantage and direct relationships. The developmental culture is examined as the firm's intrinsic factor in advancing Industry 4.0 and CE implementation. The direct effect of Industry 4.0 on CE adoption is analysed. The results indicate the positive influence of developmental culture on Industry 4.0 and CE transition and their positive impact on competitive advantage. This implies that firms should align their cultural characteristics with developmental culture as part of their strategic approaches towards adopting Industry 4.0 and CE principles. This study expands the literature by incorporating the influence of developmental culture to improve the understanding of the intrinsic influencing factor that leads to effective Industry 4.0 and CE implementation.
