Todays, the issue of environmental instability and destructive environmental behavior can leave many irreparable effects and damage on future ecosystems and the lives of future generations. Method: This study aimed to present an environmental model of sustainable development in the Iranian gas industry. The present study used a qualitative with grounded theory method. In-depth interviews were conducted with 25 academic experts (professors of public administration and environmental engineering at universities in Mazandaran province) and the heads of the National Iranian Gas Company in five regions of Iran using the rich information sampling method. Results: The results indicated that the environmental model of sustainable development in the Iranian gas industry had 15 dimensions in terms of causal conditions. 1. Services, 2. Safety and health requirements, 3. Social responsibility, (context condition) 4. Education and learning, 5. Acculturalization, 6. Managers' attitude and awareness (intervening conditions) 7. Contractors, 8. Technical facilities and equipment, 9. Technology and technical operations (Strategy) 10. Medium and long term policies of the Ministry of Energy, 11. Continuous monitoring and evaluation of project progress, 12. Consumption management programs, 13. Pollutants management programs and consequences 14. Improved environmental performance of the gas company and 15. Moving towards sustainable development. Conclusion: Since the gas industry is one of the most polluting industries and the lack of attention to environmental issues in this huge industry will lead the Iranian environment to very serious and perhaps irreparable crises, using the environmental model of sustainable development in this industry seems highly important and necessary.

Purpose The purpose of the research is to identify the key factors for the sustainable development of the industrial sectors of the region and the possibilities for stimulating these factors in the context of digitalization. Design/methodology/approach The systemic (multiple) dependencies of each of the indicators of sustainability of the industrial industries of the studied regions with the entire set of indicators reflecting the influence of digitalization factors are established using the regression analysis method. Based on the obtained multiple linear regression, a scenario analysis is carried out: the necessary combination of digitalization factors is determined, which is necessary to achieve each of the three priorities of sustainable development of industrial sectors of the region separately: increase in production, business profits and employment. After that, optimization is carried out: a combination of factors is determined, which allows you to simultaneously realize all three priorities. Findings On the example of the top 10 industrial regions of Russia, it has been proved that the key factors for the sustainable development of industrial industries in the region are the share of enterprises using electronic document management (should be upgraded to 16.8%), the share of enterprises using the Internet (should be upgraded to 67.9%), and the share of enterprises using special software tools for training personnel (should be upgraded to 94.5%). Originality/value It is justified that the management of these factors allows to significantly increase the stability of the development of industrial sectors of the region, increasing their production to 6.6% per year, profit to 1399.7% per year and employment to 6.3% per year, which can be achieved due to the general promotion of digitalization of industrial enterprises.

China has issued several strict policies since 2008 to regulate and adjust the real estate industry, which would have substantial effect on the sustainable development of the industry. The effects seem have already showed by the great reduction of profit of leading companies and bankruptcy of small ones. So, study on the effect the strict regulating policies, from the prospect of sustainable development, has great meaning for government and its decision making. The previous theories mostly emphasized on the levels of several financial indexes in order to conclude the prospect of the industry, for example the profitability, liquidity and asset-liability ratio. But actuality shows even the company, with high profitability and low asset-liability ratio, would occur to bankrupt in the near future. Therefore, we must emphasize the operation efficiency of the industry or leading companies, which can conduct us to research the development of industry in near future. DEA has been successfully used for predicting one company’s bankruptcy. In this paper we would use the model for 20 leading real east companies whose operation would stand for the whole industry’s status mostly. The result shows there is great difference in the conclusion between DEA and the traditional manners.

The sustainable development conundrum in gold mining: Exploring ‘Open, Prior and Independent Deliberate Discussion’ as a community-centered framework

Both exploitative and explorative innovations are needed for sustainable development in any industry, but balancing the two types is a delicate matter, and exploitation tends to be strongly prioritized in many industries. This is typically evident in project-based industries (PBIs), which are characterized by a fragmented supply chain and the delivery of one-off solutions in business projects. Realizing explorative innovations in this context is complex due to the need to transfer new knowledge between the organization developing the innovations and actors in inter-organizational business projects. The aim of this paper is to highlight areas in the management of explorative innovations developed outside business projects, to increase the understanding of where the specific market setting of PBIs might necessitate an adapted approach for successful realization. A case study of three innovation projects in organizations operating in PBIs have been conducted. The findings confirm that the major challenges lie in the transition between development project and business project. We highlight three aspects linked to this transition that require a flexible management approach: the assignation and acceptance of suitable responsibilities and roles, flexible support for the innovation process, and system acceptance. The findings may provide guidance for actors in PBIs strategically seeking to promote sustainable development, and provide foundations for further research to develop support for explorative innovation.

Achieving sustainable development of the coal industry is of strategic importance for ensuring national security. The purpose of the article is to identify stress factors for the sustainable development of the coal industry associated with the current objective trends in the Russian and world economies. The hypothesis of the study is the assumption that understanding the stress factors for the sustainable development of the coal industry makes it possible to form industrial policy directions to prevent the development or minimize the consequences of existing negative trends that weaken the industry's potential in the long term. The novelty of the study is expressed in the approach to the analysis of sustainable development factors, since most researchers do not separate risk factors and stress factors. When describing stress factors, the following groups were identified: financial, human, technological, political, and environmental. In the study of stress factors, a context-oriented approach was used. As a result of the study, it was revealed that the main stress factors for the sustainable development of the Russian coal industry are associated not only with the implementation of decarbonization programs for world economies, but also with a number of intra-system problems in the development of the industry. Among the latter, the problems of reducing domestic consumption of coal, increasing freight rates for rail transportation, a high degree of import dependence of coal mining against the background of a low level of innovative potential of domestic engineering, the presence of personnel problems in coal mining, etc. The Russian government's Program 2035 does not take into account a number of stress factors caused by the current trends in the development of interconnected and related industries and areas of activity. Proceeding from this, measures aimed at increasing the sustainability of the development of the coal industry are proposed. The conclusion is made about the need to identify and assess stress factors in the formation of industrial policy directions. The practical results of the study can be used to develop measures to strengthen the long-term sustainability of the coal industry and the choice of tools to respond to risks provoked by stress factors.
