“…The reason is the so far low level of profitability and/or additional costs resulting from undertaking green business ventures. As only some business entities undertake selectively selected sustainable development goals to be implemented, market competition is currently not a key factor in motivating undertaking green business ventures (Khan, Naseem Siddiqui, Khan, Ullah, Wali, Uddin Khan, Ismail, and Ihtisham, 2021).…”

Purpose:The aim of this article is to describe the key security problems related to the proenvironmental economic transformation and the implementation of the principles of sustainable development into economic processes. The impact of the coronavirus pandemic on changes in the level of environmental pollution and an increase in the level of pro-environmental awareness of citizens was also examined. Approach/Methodology/Design: The main research methodology was based on the analysis of the results of scientific research and a synthetic description of the key conclusions drawn from the review of the literature describing various aspects of the analyzed issues concerning the key security problems related to the pro-environmental economic transformation and the implementation of the principles of sustainable development into economic processes. The research methods used in the study included critical analysis of the literature, comparative analysis, and analysis of the available data. Findings: The analysis of scientific data shows that under the anti-crisis, interventionist state aid programs offered during the SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) pandemic for economic entities, the formula of reviving economic activity was applied, counteracting the rise in unemployment in a classic approach, i.e. basically without taking into account the incentives business to undertake pro-environmental economic ventures, green investments, significantly increase the scale of implementation of sustainable development goals. Only now is this topic appearing in some economic regions of the world, such as the European Union, which has an anti-crisis program to support economic entities with the use of public funds, which is to lift the economy out of recession, and takes into account selected sustainable development goals within the so-called New Green Deal. An important role in this matter is also played by the annual UN climate summits COP. Despite of all the initiatives, still the division between the richest and the poorest increases and creates tension on both international and

COVID-19 pandemic creates a worldwide problematic situation as well as Bangladesh which secures the top ten GDP growths in the last decade. Since this country has an agriculture dominated economy, this pandemic badly affects on the agricultural business sector. However, the significance of the COVID-19 pandemic may vary from different parts of Bangladesh. To visualize those effects on the consumers' points of view, this research has been conducted for measuring the different points of pandemic affects on 10 different agricultural products. A survey has been designed to collect the consumers' perception to buy agricultural food during this pandemic and a total of 200+ valid data was selected for analysis. Data has been randomly collected from all over the country having a prioritized location with a higher COVID-19 detection rate. Respondents shared their viewpoints on 10 different agricultural products type named as Coarse Rice, finer quality rice, beef & mutton, poultry & egg, local fish, exported fish, fruits & vegetables, cooking oil, spice crops, and imported foods. The data are statistically analyzed to answer three research questions regarding food availability, price hiking, and the government's initiatives to mitigate the impact of this pandemic. It has been found that almost every consumer reports comparatively higher pricing and a lack of agricultural products in the domestic market. All the data are negatively skewed for pricing in terms of any cities in Bangladesh, which means every consumer suffer from the price hiking during this pandemic. It also depicted that the food crisis was more dominated in the capital city rather than the remote local villages, which may happen due to the supply chain disruption of perishable products. However, the government already took some initiatives to mitigate the effect of this pandemic, but more thanthemajority of the respondents are not fully convinced of that. An interesting finding is that the crisis issue is not significantly dependent on any consumers' demographic data, which means every category of consumers already more or less affected by the pandemic.

“…When there is an episode of irresistible sickness, there is likewise an increment in craving and ailing health [2] [3]. Universally, the COVID-19 pandemic straightforwardly affects food security through changing the food supply-request framework, and an aberrant effect through diminishing buying power and the limit of food circulation and advertising, and expanding medical services assignments [4]. According to Sibuea research, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has indicated that food shortages and emergencies are likely to occur in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic [5].…”
