“…The term was invented by Arthur Goldberger, referring to James Tobin, who developed the model in 1958 to reduce the problem of zero inflation data to observe household spending on durable goods ( 26 ). The Tobit method can be easily extended to handle shortened samples and other non-randomly selected samples ( 27 ). The general form of the Tobit model is shown in the following relation ( 28 ):…”

Due to the importance of sustainability in the world, we follow the missing pieces of the puzzle of sustainable agriculture and food security as a huge gap in the literature. To achieve this goal, a survey was analyzed to assess the linkage between these two concepts in the rural areas in Lorestan province in Iran. The status of food security was assessed using US Household Food Security Survey Module (HFSSM). A standard questionnaire extracted from the related literature was applied to calculate sustainability indicators. The results showed that the status of food security among households with no children (70%) was better than those with one or more children (28%). According to the Tobit model, none of the sustainability dimensions had a significant association with food insecurity. The results support the fact that the assessment of agricultural sustainability at the microeconomic level, short-term period, and a small, specified location cannot lead to reliable results due to the similar behaviors of farmers in these areas. The low level of agricultural sustainability is due to the lack of macroeconomic policies in the region to promote and disseminate the principles of sustainability, lack of plans and actions to promote sustainability by stakeholders and policymakers, ignorance of the target community, as subsistence producers who fall into a deprivation trap. The results suggest that policymakers should use two short-term and long-term strategies to improve the level of agricultural sustainability and increase food security status.

“…In other words, Tobit can be considered as an extension of the probit method and an appropriate approach to dealing with censored data. The coefficients are calculated using the maximum log-likelihood function, which indicates the consistency of the model ( 27 ).…”

“…In general, when conducting coefficient regression analysis, the commonly used method is the ordinary least squares method. However, when regress parameters with discrete values of dependent variables are used, this method may lead to biased and inconsistent parameter estimates [58]. In order to prevent this situation, Tobin [59] proposed a truncated regression model using the maximum likelihood method instead of the ordinary least squares method in 1958, referred to as the Tobit model.…”

This research measures the green economic efficiency (GEE) of 30 regions in China from 2009 to 2021 and verifies the financial agglomeration and environmental regulation impacts on GEE with the Tobit model. The conclusions are as follows: (1) The average GEE value in China is 0.596—which is still at a low level—and is highest in the eastern region and lowest in the western region. (2) Financial agglomeration can promote GEE in the whole country, in both the eastern and western regions; however, the western region effect is very low. In the central region, due to the “siphon effect” produced by the eastern region, the financial resources concentrated in the east thus suppress GEE. Environmental regulation inhibits GEE nationally and in the western region while showing a promotion effect in the eastern and central regions, but it is not significant in the central region. (3) Industrial structures inhibit GEE nationally and in the central and western regions, while industrial structures promote GEE in the eastern region; the GDP (gross domestic product) per capita also inhibits GEE nationally and in the central and western regions and promotes GEE in the eastern region. Government intervention inhibits green economic development in all regions, and urbanization inhibits GEE nationally and in the central and western regions while promoting GEE in the eastern region.

Dengan peningkatan aktivitas konstruksi gedung di seluruh dunia, dampak lingkungan telah menjadi perhatian utama yang memerlukan pertimbangan serius. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengevaluasi konstruksi gedung sebagai sumber dampak lingkungan dan memberikan gambaran tentang metode analisis dampak lingkungan. Tinjauan terhadap proses konstruksi menyoroti kompleksitas tahapan perencanaan, konstruksi fisik, dan operasional. Fokus pada jenis bahan konstruksi membedakan antara material konvensional dan yang ramah lingkungan, serta menyoroti inovasi terkini. Pentingnya penggunaan teknologi modern dan dampaknya terhadap efisiensi dan lingkungan juga ditekankan. Tinjauan metode Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) menjadi kunci dalam menganalisis dampak lingkungan, dengan mempertimbangkan aspek sosial dan ekonomi. Melalui studi kasus, proyek konstruksi gedung dan smelter pertambangan diidentifikasi sebagai penyebab dampak lingkungan yang signifikan. Identifikasi ini menciptakan peluang untuk mitigasi dan inovasi yang sesuai dengan konteks. Tantangan mengurangi dampak lingkungan melibatkan koordinasi pemangku kepentingan dan perubahan perilaku industri, namun peluang inovasi berkelanjutan memberikan landasan positif menuju industri konstruksi yang lebih ramah lingkungan.
