This study explores the factors affecting proper garbage disposal in San Jose, Occidental Mindoro, Philippines, where approximately 49 tons of solid garbage are produced each day. This research was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to evaluate the variables affecting proper waste disposal in the community. The concept of this study follows the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), which refers to the idea that human beings act rationally depending on their behavioral aspects. A total of 300 respondents from the community of San Jose were acquired through an online questionnaire. The findings revealed that environmental knowledge significantly influences environmental concerns while it affects personal values and environmental attitudes. Intention was affected by personal attitudes and convenience, which also had an impact on waste management behavior. The result of the study could aid government institutions and households in incorporating effective solid waste management practices within the community. It is crucial to implement proper waste disposal procedures, as inadequate municipal waste management can lead to detrimental impacts on the environment, human health, and urban living standards. The study highlights the importance of community participation in developing effective strategies and improving waste management behavior in San Jose, Occidental Mindoro.

This article aims to study the fiscal incentives for forest protection in Portugal. Understanding the reality of this fiscal policy is fundamental in the context of sustainable forest management. After reviewing the literature focused on the importance of the forest as an essential asset to meet human needs, the Portuguese tax regime in this area is analysed. This is followed by a study of tax incentives for Forest Intervention Areas (FIA) and Forest Management Plans (FMP) in the Portuguese business context in the period 2015-2020. The main results of the research show that companies connected to the sector have become more aware of the importance of adopting more sustainable practices, by adhering to these tax benefits over time, showing the role of environmental tax policy in the sustainable growth of the economic tissue. The results show that the number of beneficiary companies is reduced compared to the total number of companies operating in the forestry sector in Portugal, also verifying that most of these companies are concentrated in a small number of municipalities, some of which have no ZIF. Ther is still important work to be done with a view to greater dissemination of the tax benefits under study.

“…Thus, their perceptions, attitudes and readiness to be part of the transition are of crucial importance. The influence of forest owners' attitudes towards forest values and forest management has been a frequently studied topic (Belin et al 2005;Nordlund and Westin 2011;Degnet et al 2022). Similarly, the impacts of sustainability, climate change and biodiversity loss on forest management and forest owners' decision-making have been studied (Blennow 2012;van Gameren and Zaccai 2015;Bissonnette et al 2017;Husa and Kosenius 2021;Takala et al 2022).…”

Numerous phenomena, such as sustainability challenges and the increasing importance of knowledge and digitalisation, have tremendous impacts on the global socio-economic system. These phenomena affect the dynamic and complex business environment where different actors from various sectors interact with each other. Responding to the phenomena and changes in the business environment calls for a systemic change in the ways that value-creating activities are performed. One suggested systemic change is a transition to a sustainable circular bioeconomy. Changes in the business environment pressure established business sectors, such as the forest sector, to reconfigure their networks and value creation logic, i.e., the ways in which actors co-create value. In this dissertation I investigated how the value creation logic of the forest sector changes when entering the sustainable circular forest-based bioeconomy. The research design followed a qualitative theory-guided interdisciplinary case study strategy. I analysed scientific and non-scientific documents to determine the past and currently occurring adaptations within the forest industry’s value creation logic. I conducted interviews to identify the possible future value creation logic of forestry service providers and the readiness of forest owners to respond to the occurring changes. According to the findings, the forest sector’s value creation logic is incrementally changing towards holistically sustainable, collaborative and cross-sectoral value co-creation logic. The sector has been able to reconfigure its networks and value creation logic in the past and it seems that the sector’s actors have understood the importance of cross-sectoral collaboration and intangible resources in the sustainable value-creating activities. They have acknowledged that their attitudes and actions will affect the future value creation within the sector. To reach holistic sustainability, actors need to consider the whole forest ecosystem as a capital and a resource base from where value and benefits for the common good are co-created in a forest-based sector.
