Electronic waste (e-waste) pertains to all electrical and electronic devices that have reached the end of their operational life, posing environmental hazards. It stands out as one of the rapidly expanding sectors on a global scale. This paper aims to apply the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) to predict consumer intentions towards e-waste recycling, pinpointing the key factors contributing most significantly to behavioural intentions. Through a quantitative approach involving online surveys, data was gathered from 522 respondents. The collected data underwent exploratory factor analysis and structural equation modelling for analysis. The investigation pinpointed the following factors as the primary catalysts for behavioural intention: (a) the convenience associated with e-waste recycling, (b) attitudes regarding e-waste recycling, and (c) the environmental awareness exhibited by consumers. This research offers valuable insights for scholars, marketing practitioners, and environmental experts, aiding them in comprehending and fostering environmentally conscious consumer behaviour.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuel combustion significantly contribute to environmental degradation and climate change, leading to severe societal impacts, such as extreme weather and disrupted agriculture. This study examines the relationship between total factor productivity (TFP), educational attainment, and CO2 emissions in selected ASEAN + 3 countries from 1991 to 2022. Using dynamic panel data methods and the pooled mean group (PMG) estimator, findings reveal that while population growth and economic development positively affect CO2 emissions, TFP and education have a negative long-term impact. In the short term, only population growth is statistically significant. Prioritising TFP growth and responsible consumption can reduce emissions. Higher educational attainment fosters innovation in low-carbon technologies, accelerating emission reductions across industries. Policymakers can facilitate TFP growth and promote climate-friendly practices, while educated individuals play a crucial role in systematically mitigating CO2 emissions.

Public transports are essential in urbanisation because they provide an alternative to driving a private vehicle and may have an influence on the health and wellbeing of both individuals and communities. This research highlights how rail transport affects human health and its integration by Malaysia's urban public transport industries to increase sustainability of cities. This paper reviews the literature on usage of rail transport in cities and health benefits through the PRISMA method. Residents and workers in communities use public transport along with walking and cycling. This behaviour lowers road accidents and pollution, enhances physical and mental health, and increases accessibility of medical treatment and nutritious food to the public. The government of Malaysia must enhance public transport usage for high sustainability and health. This paper identifies various beneficial strategies that can help improve public health through urban public transportation in Malaysia.

The study develops a conceptual framework that combines the constructs of the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) and the health belief model (HBM) to elucidate the factors influencing buying intentions towards green food. The study employed convenience sampling, a non-probability sampling method, to gather primary responses from lecturers at a technical university in Ghana who regularly purchase green food. Questionnaires, designed based on TPB and HBM constructs, were distributed online to 171 respondents. Data analysis utilised partial least squares structural equation modelling to test the hypotheses derived from a comprehensive literature review. The analysis supported all seven direct effects on the constructs (attitudes, subjective norms, perceived threats, and perceived benefits). However, perceived barriers, cues to action, and perceived behavioural control were found to be insignificant.
