“…Compared with the traditional economy, a circular economy is a kind of economic development pattern that is harmonious with the environment [66]. Fourth, the layout of spatial land development, spatial land carrying capacity, environmental policy, development stage, and other factors should be fully considered to make reasonable plans and to actively improve the mechanism of organization coordination, benefits compensation, and performance evaluation.…”

“…Additionally, the spatial distribution of urban space, agricultural space, and ecological space should be reasonably planned, and the red line for ecological protection, permanent basic farmland protection, and urban development should be set to explore the means of space governance and land-use control [66]. For example, the government should strengthen the planning of the green space system, improve the value of urban ecosystem services, and build multiple green space ecosystems, including parks, nurseries, and shelterbelts, as well as water conservation forests in the suburbs, ring city forests, and large areas of lawns, to reduce the impact of urban expansion on ecosystem services.…”

Sound ecosystems are a precondition for the sustainable survival and development of human society. However, ecological deterioration caused by socioeconomic activities can result in increasing pressure on ecosystems. Exploration of the spatial interaction between ecosystem and economic development under the background of high-quality and green development is, therefore, necessary. In this study, we analyzed the spatial interaction between the ecosystem services value (ESV) and economic development with the economic and ecological coupling index method based on high-resolution remote-sensing land-use data and socioeconomic statistical data in Hunan Province from 2000 to 2018. The results revealed that the ESV provided by the ecosystems in Hunan Province decreased by US$1256.166 million from 2000 to 2018. The areas with high ESV per unit area were distributed in the mountainous areas, while the areas with low ESV per unit area were distributed in the major cities and their surroundings. The bivariate spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that the ESV had significant spatial dependence on the economic development. In addition, the coupling analysis documented that the relationship between the ESV and economic density was mostly in the low conflict and potential crisis states. These results provide important guidance for the coordinated development of the regional economy and ecosystem conservation.

“…Xu et al [29] applied the two-stage least squares regression to explore the impacts of debt financing and environmental management on SGR in the Chinese tourism industry. Kuo and Chang [39] also applied the two stages least squares regression to investigate the effect of circular economy information on corporate economic sustainability in China. Sunardi et al [28] investigated the association among conservative working capital policy, profitability, and SGR in the Indonesian manufacturing industry between 2013 and 2018 by using the panel data regression of stochastic effects estimation model.…”

Despite a huge body of literature revealing that the effect of environmental, social and governance (ESG) scores on a firms' financial performance and value, it lacks the empirical research on the nexus between corporate sustainable growth and ESG risk in the existing research. The paper aims to examine the nexus between ESG risk and corporate sustainable growth. This study utilizes a quantile regression approach to explore how ESG risk affects corporate sustainable growth (proxied by sustainable growth rate, SGR). The ordinary least squares estimation results confirm that ESG significantly negatively affects corporate sustainable growth. The quantile regression results reveal ESG risk has a significant negative effect on corporate sustainable growth in the upper quantiles of SGR, but not in the lower and median quantiles. The results show that the impact of ESG risk on the corporate sustainable growth is asymmetric and affected by the distribution of SGR. Furthermore, the research results identify that the negative relationship between ESG risk and corporate sustainable growth is particularly apparent for firms in environmentally sensitive industries. This study greatly contributes to existing literature, as with this detailed knowledge, managers can make decisions based on these associations and identify the most lucrative course of action.

Halloysite and Laponite Hybrid Pigments Synthesis with Copper Chlorophyll

et al. 2021

Sustainable and green materials have been studied in dye and pigment productions to reduce their environment impacts from being produced and applied. Although natural dyes are an excellent choice to move from agrowaste, some improvements must be made before they are applied given their poor fastness. One way of improving natural dye properties is their adsorption into nanoclay structures to give hybrid pigments. This work used tubular halloysite and laminar laponite to adsorb and stabilize natural copper chlorophyll. With a statistical design of experiments, we observed interactions between synthesis factors, such as pH, ionic strength, and surfactant or silane modification. Cool hybrid pigments with high TSR (%) values and a wide color range were obtained by using dispersions with only distilled water at room temperature. Successful chlorophyll adsorption on both nanoclay surfaces took place by XRD and DTA analyses. The maximum natural dye absorption for both nanoclay types took place under acid conditions, pH 3–4, and in the presence of mordant. The TSR (%) improved by the silane pH interaction, and halloysite hybrid pigments obtained higher TSR values than the laponite ones. Finally, a wide chromatic green color range was obtained with the surfactant modification in both nanoclays, and the color fastening was also improved in the hybrid pigments application. The samples generated with 10% of hybrid pigments from both nanoclays and an Epoxy bioresin, show higher colorfastness than the sample with the natural chlorophyll, due to the nanoclays–dye interaction and protection.
