Co-movements of income and urbanization through energy use and pollution: An investigation for world’s leading polluting countries

A Divestment Model: Migration to Green Energy Investment Portfolio Concept

“…Economic growth is key to sustained job opportunities, improved health facilities and improved infrastructure for growing populations. In Sub-Sahara African as well as developed countries, energy consumption is increasing rapidly [1]. To satisfy the energy demand, new coal-powered electricity generating plants are being constructed or plants that were shut down are being revived.…”

“…Migration to cleaner energy sources such as renewable energies with the intent to phase down and gradually phase out fossil fuels in the wake of increasing climatic extreme conditions is an urgent matter for our planet. Inevitably, this generates movement of income in the energy sector, and this coupled with urbanization issues such as energy use and pollution is contributing to the climate crises [1]. Renewable sources of energy have been accepted as a solution towards reducing the diffusion and accumulation of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere en route to achieve a net-zero GHG emission by 2050.…”

What Affects the Willingness of Farmers to Participate in Forest Ticket Trading? Empirical Analysis Based on Incomplete Information Theory

“…The core lies in exploring how the innovative forestry financing model of forest vouchers can be accepted by farmers in complex decision-making environments. Previous studies have revealed three key influencing dimensions: Firstly, macro external environmental factors, such as urban expansion and policy orientation, indirectly affect the transaction decisions of farmers by influencing the stability of forest land rights [13,14]. Secondly, the micro level environmental characteristics cover the social network, information accessibility, investment opportunities, and diversified expectations of farmers, which directly affect their willingness to participate [15][16][17].…”
