“…GHRM is one of the essential factors in analyzing the sustainability of the organization. Maintaining the sustainability of the world’s ecosystem in this era of the ever-changing environment with continuous services for human beings is the prime focus of the managers of this age [ 34 ]. Firms today are becoming more aware of their social, ethical, and ecological perspective; they are promoting sustainability and sustainable goals [ 35 ].…”

The global need to preserve ecology has propelled the green movement across the globe. An emerging managerial challenge for all organizations is to protect natural resources by reducing their negative impact on the environment and increase sustainable performance. Greening is the need of the age to conserve natural resources. This study investigates the impact of green human resource management practice—i.e., green hiring—on the sustainable performance of public and private healthcare organizations. A quantitative research approach was used for data collection. Scale survey of 160 responses was gathered from public and private healthcare organizations. Partial least square–structural equation modeling was used for data analysis. The study results suggest that green recruitment has a positive and significant impact on environmental performance, economic performance, and social performance. Path coefficients test also revealed that green performance management and compensation significantly mediate the relationship between green hiring and sustainable performance of public and private healthcare organizations. This study is helpful for organizations in adapting GHRM practices that will benefit the organizations in all ways. This study also provides a better understanding to policymakers on how to promote GHRM practices and increase sustainability in organizations.

“…The ecological network was taken as a crucial carrier for the multiple functions of the green space system. Many studies have pointed out that it consideration should be made of important functions such as recreation 56 , 57 , habitat and migration of specific species 58 , scenic beauty 59 , and economic development 60 – 62 . For the ecological network's compound function, it is necessary to build a multi-functional evaluation and coupling mechanism to solve functional coupling better 61 – 63 , while also managing conflicts between protection and construction 64 , 65 and improving the rationality of ecological network identification and protection 66 , 67 .…”

China's Green Space System Planning (GSSP) research has gradually expanded from central urban areas to municipal and provincial scales in recent years. Besides, the research on the role of green space in the water environment has also attracted much attention. However, the study of green corridors usually ignored hydrological data, which widespread absence especially in the large area scale. And the scale of green corridor construction mainly focused on central urban areas. This paper took China's Fujian province as an example. Based on the DEM elevation data, the article identified blue corridors without hydrological data. In addition, the green corridors were determined based on the land use data. According to the green corridors and blue corridors protection, we identified the ecological networks and nodes by the network analysis method. The results showed that the blue corridors identified by DEM data were consistent with the hydrological status quo. The regional status of the identified ecological networks and nodes were basically in line with their characteristics, proving the value of the planning methods. Finally, based on the identification results, suggestions for Fujian's ecological networks and nodes are put forward.

“…Each resistance surface contributes to the comprehensive resistance surface according to a certain weight, making it necessary to adequately allocate the weight of each resistance surface before constructing the comprehensive resistance. In this paper, we adopted the analytic hierarchy process [ 12 ] to determine the weight of each resistance surface, in combination with the opinions of relevant experts. The greater the weight given, the higher the importance.…”

“…Currently, the global scale of cities continues to grow [ 1 , 2 ], with an expanding scope of human activities [ 3 ], putting the global biodiversity at risk of further degradation [ 4 , 5 ]. Although considerable efforts have been made by governments around the world to protect biodiversity [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ], the coordination of economic development and biodiversity conservation is still challenging [ 11 , 12 ]. Among the factors affecting biodiversity, fragmentation and loss of biological habitat are considered the most important ones [ 13 ].…”

Since the 1950s, human activities have been driving economic development and land changes, hindering the conservation of biological habitats and landscape connectivity. Constructing ecological networks is an effective means to avoid habitat destruction and fragmentation. Mountain areas are hotspots of biological habitats and biodiversity; however, the pace of urbanization in mountain areas is also accelerating. To protect an ecosystem more effectively, it is necessary to identify ecological corridors and ecological networks. Therefore, based on the Minimal Cumulative Resistance model and taking Chongqing in China as an example, the identification of potential ecological corridors and the construction of an ecological network in Chongqing were realized using the Linkage Mapper software. The results were as follows: (1) From 2005 to 2015, the patch area of cultivated land and grassland in Chongqing decreased by 0.08% and 1.46%, respectively, while that of built-up areas increased by 1.5%. The fragmentation degree of cultivated land was higher, and the internal connectivity of forestry areas was worse. (2) In total, 24 ecological sources were selected, and 87 potential ecological corridors and 35 ecological nodes were generated using the Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis and the Conefor2.6 software. The total length of the ecological network in Chongqing is 2524.34 km, with an average corridor length of 29.02 km. (3) The overall complexity and network efficiency are high, but the spatial distribution of ecological corridors is uneven, especially in the southwest of Chongqing.
