The Fourth Cognitive R/Evolution

Humans are at a turning point in their evolution. Many individuals and groups realise that there is need for change. This paper illustrates the difficulties evolution has created in human thinking, consequently producing many of the hurdles we face today. Linear problem-solving thinking is no longer adequate when creating a sustainable ecology, economy or society. Humans must look beyond the problem, and be creative about what kind of a world is wanted. Resolving problems using competition and conflict is not effective. Effective change will only take place by using cooperation, community and connection to develop a sustainable world. The paradigm shift in thinking is from problem-focused to possibility-focused approaches.

The practice of protecting agricultural land in Jiangsu Province of China

The safeguarding of agricultural land is rooted in national land surveys and remote sensing data, which are enhanced by contemporary information technology. This framework facilitates the monitoring and regulation of unauthorized alterations in cultivated land usage. This paper aims to analyze land policies at the national, provincial, and local levels, investigate the cultivated land protection strategies implemented within the research region, where the policies have gained societal acceptance, and propose recommendations and countermeasures to enhance the development and utilization of land resources. The central issue of this study is to identify the challenges in achieving a balance between human activities and natural ecosystems. To address this issue, the research employs a combination of literature review, semi-structured interviews, text analysis, and content analysis, emphasizing the integration of empirical fieldwork and theoretical frameworks. Key areas of focus include: (a) the current state of the farmland protection system, (b) the legal foundations for local enforcement, (c) the systematic mechanisms for implementing arable land protection, and (d) the coordinated oversight system involving both the Party and government. Notably, the practice of cultivated land protection faces several challenges, primarily stemming from two factors. Firstly, there exists a disconnect between the economic interests of certain illegal land users and the objectives of land management, which hinders effective enforcement. Secondly, environmental repercussions arise from misinterpretations of land policy or non-compliant land development practices aimed at profit, which contradict the goals of ecological sustainability. The study examines two approaches to address the issue: the distribution and effective use of land resources, and the capacity for monitoring and early warning systems. Findings indicate that Dongtai City in Jiangsu Province has rigorously implemented all national land management policies, while also preserving the adaptability of local townships in practical applications, thereby ensuring the consistency of both the quality and quantity of arable land.

The role of financial inclusion and technological innovation in stimulating environmental sustainability in the European countries: A new perspective based on load capacity factor

Given the alarming level of climate change, policymakers across the globe are seeking strategies to mitigate environmental pollution to achieve sustainable development. In this context, renewable energy and technological advancements have emerged as an effective way to lower pollution and attain sustainable development. This study evaluates the effect of financial inclusion, technological innovation, and renewable energy on the load capacity factor (LCF) in European countries from 2004 to 2018. LCF is considered the most comprehensive indicator of ecological sustainability, combining both the biocapacity factor and ecological footprint. Hence, the present work fills the literature gap by exploring, for the first time, the effect of financial inclusion on the LCF. Applying the advanced Method of Moment Quantile Regression (MMQR), the study demonstrates that technological innovation and economic growth have adverse effects on LCF while renewable energy and financial inclusion promote LCF. The study indicates that technological innovation and economic growth undermine ecological excellence in European nations while green energy and financial inclusion enhance it. Moreover, the findings of the causality analysis reveal a causal association between financial inclusion, renewable energy, and LCF. Our study recommends prioritizing financial inclusion alongside investments in renewable energy to enhance ecological sustainability.

Scrutinizing the load capacity curve for a global perspective: The role of Fintech, government effectiveness and renewable energy

With the evolving world order, countries are using financial technologies (Fintech) to access financial resources more effectively, and Fintech can have an impact on the environment. This study aims to investigate the influence of Fintech on ecological sustainability, focusing on the contribution of renewable energy (RE) and government effectiveness (GE) under the Load Capacity Curve (LCC). This research analyzes data from 69 middle-income economies between 2006 and 2022 using the dynamic panel threshold model (DPTR). The outcomes document that GDP reduces the LCF below a certain threshold, but a positive impact above this threshold. Specifically, the model yielded a threshold value of $US 5222.234, which is higher than the average GDP of $US 4276.802. This finding suggests a U-shaped relationship between GDP and LCF, which supports the LCC hypothesis. The outcome also reports that Fintech plays a crucial role in improving ecological sustainability, while government effectiveness has a negative effect. The study emphasizes that middle-income countries should support Fintech and renewable energy along development with economic progress to improve ecological quality.

Detrimental Effect of Chloride on Suppressing Cadmium Accumulation in Rice Grains: A Field-Based Investigations

Cadmium (Cd) contamination in rice ecosystems poses significant threats to global food security and ecological sustainability. This study addresses the urgent need to understand how chloride (Cl-) addition impacts on Cd dynamics in the soil-rice system, given the widespread use of Cl-containing materials in agriculture practices. Our findings indicated that Cl- addition significantly lowered soil pH, increased redox potential (Eh), and facilitated the formation of Cl-Cd complexes, enhancing Cd solubility, mobility, and bioavailability. Cl- also decreased DTPA-extractable iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn), indirectly increasing Cd uptake by rice roots (by 17.4% to 65.0%) through upregulation of OsNramp1 and OsNramp5 transport genes, while diminishing iron plaque formation on roots by 23.1% to 27.2%. Furthermore, Cl- facilitated Cd translocation from roots to shoots via upregulation of OsHMA2 gene, leading to elevating Cd accumulation in rice tissues and increasing Cd levels in brown rice by 41.3% to 76.1%. Field trials corroborated that Cl- application in slightly acidic, Cd-contaminated soils exacerbated Cd accumulation in rice grains, posing heightened risks to food safety. These results underscore the critical need to limit Cl-containing materials in agriculture to safeguard crop safety and protect ecological health.

Effect of plant extract additives on the parasitic reaction in alkaline Zn-air batteries

The battery's high energy density, economical price, and ecological sustainability of the Zn-air battery make it a bright future battery technology. However, parasitic reactions, which can diminish the battery's life cycle and efficacy, are the key challenges for potential development of Zn-air batteries. Glycyrrhiza glabra roots extract (GGRE) has been investigated as an alternative hydrogen gas evolution and corrosion inhibitor for Zn-air batteries in order to mitigate the parasitic reaction. The results obtained reveal that the inhibition capacity of the GGRE extract increases with concentration and reaches its highest level (75.6%) around 350 mg L-1 of GGRE extract. GGRE extract is a mixed type inhibitor with a predominately cathodic effect based on the polarization data. The GGRE extract adsorption on the Zn surface complies with Freundlich isotherm. In comparison to the blank Zn-KOH (354 mAh g-1), the battery containing 350 mg L-1 GGRE extract has the highest discharge capacity (533 mAh g-1) and the best cyclability (92.9% retention after 500 cycles). Overall, GGRE extract can significantly optimize the performance of Zn-air batteries.

Environmental Policies and Green Technologies: Impacts on Energy Sustainability in the African Continental Free Trade Area.

This research focuses on environmental pollution, a significant concern today due to energy use. Improving ecological sustainability suggests a framework for sustainable energy behaviours. This paper reviews the advances in environmental policies and green technology in designing efficient energy systems, but some gaps remain. The variables considered in this research are analyzed through Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) and Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS) models to determine their effects on energy structures and the environment in 31 of the 55 countries within the AFCFTA. Some main results show that one percentage point improvement in environmental legislation leads to decreased ecological footprints by 9.11% (DOLS) and 20.98% (FMOLS). On the other hand, a one percent increase in green innovations reduces ecological footprints by 0.6% (DOLS) and 1% (FMOLS). Also, service imports reduce sustainability by decreasing it by 2.98% (DOLS) and 1.47% (FMOLS), while service exports improve sustainability by increasing it by 1.59% (DOLS) and 1. 09% (FMOLS). Thus, these results underscore the need to maintain and strengthen environmental legislation and encourage green investments, as well as the importance of green innovation environmental policies and renewable energy to enhance environmental quality.

A Multicriteria Decision-Making Approach for Urban Water Features: Ecological Landscape Architecture Evaluation

In recent decades, the issues of ecology and environmental sustainability have become a global concern in contemporary urban design. Among various urban elements, water features play a significant role in improving the ecological characteristics of their surrounding environment, especially in hot and arid areas. The aim of this study is to evaluate the ecological characteristics of urban water features comprehensively and quantitatively, which has been overlooked in previous studies, taking their physical characteristics into account. To this end, a multicriteria decision-making method, an analytic network process, was proposed to quantitatively evaluate the ecological characteristics of water features. In this approach, four ecological criteria—microclimate, biodiversity, greenery, and human wellbeing—and ten physical characteristics of water features were considered. Twenty-one experts were asked to complete a questionnaire for pairwise comparisons of all ecological criteria and the influence of physical characteristics. The results showed that vegetation and scale, with the relative influencing values of 0.255 and 0.188, respectively, were identified as the most decisive features influencing ecological criteria. Conversely, texture, with a value 0.023, had the least impact. Moreover, it was shown that water features have the greatest impact on the microclimate compared with other ecological criteria. The results were used to compare water features at the Koohsangi Transregional Park, located in a hot and arid city of Iran. The results of this study lead to a framework that can help urban designers integrate ecological criteria into water feature planning to enhance urban ecology and sustainability.

Women’s Leadership in Sustainable Agriculture: Preserving Traditional Knowledge Through Home Gardens in Santa Maria Jacatepec, Oaxaca

Rural communities in Oaxaca face challenges such as food insecurity, economic instability, and the loss of traditional agricultural knowledge. Home gardens, once essential for food production and income generation, have declined due to migration, environmental degradation, and modern agricultural pressures. This study evaluated how community-driven models, supported by crowdfunding, can revitalize home gardens to improve food security, build community resilience, and promote economic empowerment. A mixed-methods approach, including household surveys, interviews, and focus groups, was used to assess the impact of these gardens. The results showed that over 70% of households experienced improved food security and reduced reliance on external food sources. Home garden production also led to a 20% reduction in food expenses, and the sale of surplus crops provided additional income, enhancing household economic stability. Women’s involvement in agricultural decision-making increased, fostering empowerment within both family and community contexts. Traditional practices, such as seed saving and organic pest control, were maintained, contributing to the ecological sustainability of the gardens. Crowdfunding was an effective tool for financing home gardens, boosting community engagement and strengthening social bonds. The findings highlight the potential of integrating traditional knowledge with modern funding strategies to create resilient, sustainable agricultural systems in rural Oaxaca.

The Ecotourism Industry's Role in Environmental Stewardship

Indeed, the overall rise in environmental pollution from natural ecosystems has become one of the major threats to biodiversity and the health of any given community across the globe. Traditional tourism has been blamed as one of the prime agents of this environmental degradation; hence, the need for alternatives in sustainability is becoming increasingly pressing. This paper explores in detail the potential this industry holds for transforming the paradigm from pollution to preservation. It demonstrates how ecotourism, through the use of sustainability and environmental education, can be among the most powerful tools in combating the negative impacts of pollution on sensitive ecosystems. The article now discusses a few important case studies from different parts of the world to clearly show how ecotourism efforts have helped reduce pollution, protect natural habitats, and improve biodiversity. The discussion considers how tourism would encourage tourists and locals to take environmentally conscious actions in the interest of the environment, minimizing waste, reducing carbon footprints, and offering protection to natural resources. Besides, the article sets up that ecotourism has economic motives that include providing financial rewards for the conservation of ecosystems and offering sustainable livelihoods to people living within and around the protected areas. The article further talks about the ecotourism challenges, such as "greenwashing" and a rigorous regulatory framework in place, to ensure the ecotourism practices actually help in environmental preservation. This paper will suggest ways in which governments, local communities, environmental organizations, and the tourism industry, in greater ways, should be co-operative in having an optimal benefit on environmental sustainability through ecotourism. In other words, what this article suggests is that ecotourism in itself is not going to solve the problem of environmental pollution, and it remains important in the greater scheme of environmental stewardship. It is possible that this transition-from pollution to preservation-is being led by ecotourism, where responsible travel and conservation, coupled with sensitization about environmental problems, take place. The article calls for continued research and increased investment in the practice of sustainable tourism to finally see ecotourism live up to its promise as a driver of ecological sustainability and an example for other industries to follow.

Blue Carbon Potential of Mangrove Ecosystems and Its Management to Promote Climate Change Mitigation in Indonesia

This research aimed to analyze blue carbon potential and mangrove ecosystem management in promoting climate change mitigation in Indonesia. The collected data included mangrove area data obtained through the Indonesian National Ecosystem Monitoring System (SIMONTANA). This research calculated the carbon stock using the global average of mangrove carbon stock. The results showed that the total blue carbon stored in mangrove ecosystems reached 3,267.87 Megaton Carbon (MtC). Papua and Kalimantan regions contributed the most significant potential, with 1,707.22 MtC and 608.17 MtC, respectively. The absorption of carbon dioxide (CO2) reached 11,982.21 MtCO2e. The most significant CO2 gas emissions absorption was observed in the Papua region, amounting to 6,259.80 MtCO2e, followed by Sumatra with 2,118.59 MtCO2e. This high potential value correlated with mangrove ecosystem management policies, such as conservation, restoration, and blue carbon monetization. Mangrove management for climate change mitigation was carried out through national and international cooperation to achieve the 26% to 40% emission reduction target. The existing management model of mangrove ecosystems focused on improving ecological sustainability with less orientation on improving community welfare. Implementing blue carbon monetization at the district level by involving the community as the owners or managers of the mangrove ecosystems is crucial.

Moving toward a decolonial and intersectional notion of justice for socio-ecological problems: the urban agroecology of the Buckets Revolution

ABSTRACT This article analyses the Buckets Revolution, an urban agroecological movement in a Brazilian favela that emerged to address waste management issues. We aim to explore the movement’s achievements in promoting socio—cological justice in a vulnerable community of the Global South through agroecology, investigating: i) what socio-ecological problems and intersected demands for justice boosted the emergence of the Buckets Revolution? and ii) what demands for justice the BR has been dealing with to overcome the socio-ecological injustices borne by the Chico Mendes community? We apply the socio-ecological justice model as our theoretical framework, with a decolonial and feminist intersectional approach to embrace the complexity of the case study. The research methods focus on embracing the local reality and the community views, encompassing bibliographical research, a focus group, and semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal that this agroecological movement has effectively addressed organic waste management, food insecurity, and other socio-ecological issues, contributing to socio-ecological justice in the Chico Mendes community. The study emphasizes the importance of considering the a) interconnections of social and ecological problems, b) intersected dimensions of justice, and c) needs and views of the community when developing environmental urban policies to achieve social justice and ecological sustainability.

Sustainability Assessment of Agricultural Waste Biogas Production System in China Based on Emergy and Carbon Evaluation Methods

Biogas production is widely recognized as an effective solution for addressing agricultural waste treatment in rural areas. However, its development is often hindered by economic and environmental constraints. This study combined emergy evaluation and carbon footprint analysis methods to establish a new environmental radius assessment model for evaluating the ecological performance and optimization direction of an agricultural waste biogas production system, using a biogas production company in China as a case study. Compared with the straw return model and straw power generation model, the results of emergy indicators and carbon accounting showed that the biogas production model had a lower environmental load and higher economic output and level of emergy sustainability. Additionally, the biogas production system was found to reduce 0.47 kg of carbon emissions per 1 kg of agricultural waste utilized. The application of the biogas production model in rural areas had high ecological sustainability and carbon emission reduction benefits. Environmental radius assessment results confirmed that the reasonable changes in resource collection distance could further enhance the ecological sustainability, carbon mitigation ability, and economic benefits of the biogas production system. The environmental radius assessment method offers a new approach to the location planning of agricultural waste biogas utilization companies in rural areas.

Sustainable development goals in emerging markets: Aligning the role of financial inclusion in promoting environmental quality of the Next‐11 economies

AbstractPursuing sustainable development has emerged as a paramount global objective, with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) serving as a guiding framework. Increasing environmental degradation is associated with increased greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, industrial waste, fossil fuel depletion, and loss of biodiversity. This study has analyzed the effect of financial inclusion on ecological sustainability while controlling the effect of financial development, energy consumption, economic growth, urbanization, and trade openness in the Next‐11 economies from 1995 to 2019. The study develops the financial inclusion index through principal components analysis by inculcating three demand‐side and three supply‐side factors of financial inclusion. To analyze the developed model, various first‐generation and second‐generation techniques are applied. The results of Westerlund co‐integration reveal significant long‐run co‐integration among the series. The long‐run elasticities are estimated through dynamic common correlated effect estimation and generalized method of moments where results reveal that FI helps to secure environmental sustainability by reducing the ecological footprint, hence it works on the SDG framework. Economic growth and financial development are found to be the root causes of increasing ecological footprint. So, it is the penetration of excessive credit, not the financial inclusivity which needs to be directed toward sustainability. It is suggested that the governments of Next‐11 countries should steer the capital toward sustainable usage and should continue facilitating financial services to curtail environmental degradation. Our findings have significant repercussions for Next‐11 countries, giving decision makers fresh perceptions of financial inclusion and development implications.

Promoting Responsible Tourism: Assessing Sustainable Practices, Community Engagement, and Environmental Conservation for Balancing Economic Growth and Ecological Preservation in Global Travel Destinations

This study explores the concept of responsible tourism and its role in balancing economic growth with ecological preservation in global travel destinations. By assessing sustainable practices, community engagement, and environmental conservation, the research aims to highlight the importance of a holistic approach to tourism development. Sustainable tourism practices, such as energy and water conservation, waste reduction, and eco-friendly infrastructure, are essential for minimizing the environmental impact of tourism activities. Moreover, community engagement is a critical aspect, as it ensures that local populations are actively involved in tourism decision-making and benefit from economic opportunities while preserving their cultural heritage. Environmental conservation efforts, including biodiversity protection, the establishment of protected areas, and eco-tourism initiatives, are crucial for maintaining the ecological integrity of destinations. This study employs a qualitative methodology, incorporating a comprehensive literature review, case study analysis, and expert interviews to gather insights into the challenges and successes of implementing responsible tourism. Case studies of destinations such as Costa Rica, Bhutan, and Kerala illustrate how these regions have integrated sustainable tourism practices while fostering community participation and environmental protection. The findings suggest that while responsible tourism presents numerous opportunities for long-term economic and ecological sustainability, challenges such as over tourism, resource constraints, and conflicting stakeholder interests remain. The study concludes that effective collaboration among governments, businesses, and communities, supported by clear policies and tourist education, is essential for promoting responsible tourism. This approach ensures that tourism not only contributes to economic growth but also safeguards the natural and cultural assets that make destinations attractive to visitors.

How to Achieve the Ecological Sustainability Goal of Ecologically Fragile Areas on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau: A Multi-Scenario Simulation of Lanzhou-Xining Urban Agglomerations

The future of the ecologically fragile areas on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) is a matter of concern. With the implementation of the Western Development Strategy, the Lanzhou-Xining Urban Agglomeration (LXUA) has encountered conflicts and compromises between urban expansion, ecological protection, and farmland protection policies in the rapid development of the past 2 decades. These deeply affect the land use layout, making the ecological sustainable development of the ecologically fragile areas of the QTP a complex and urgent issue. Exploring the impact of different policy-led land use patterns on regional ecosystem services is of great significance for the sustainable development of ecologically fragile areas and the formulation of relevant policies. Following the logical main line of “history-present-future”, the Patch-level Land Use Simulation (PLUS) model, which explores potential factors of historical land use, and the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Trade-offs (InVEST) model were used to construct three future scenarios for the modernization stage in 2031 dominated by different land use policies in this study. These scenarios include the Business-as-Usual Scenario (BS), the Cropland Protection Scenario (CP), and the Ecological Protection Scenario (EP). The study analyzed and predicted land use changes in the LXUA from 2001 to 2031 and assessed carbon storage, habitat quality at different time points, and water yield in 2021. The results indicated that land use changes from 2001 to 2021 reflect the impacts and conflicts among the Western Development Strategy, ecological protection policies, and cropland preservation policies. In 2031, construction land continues to increase under all three scenarios, expanding northwards around Lanzhou, consistent with the actual “northward expansion” trend of Lanzhou City. Changes in other land uses are in line with the directions guided by land use policy. By 2031, carbon storage and habitat quality decline under all scenarios, with the highest values observed in the EP scenario, the lowest carbon storage in the BS scenario, and the lowest habitat quality in the CP scenario. Regarding water yield, the LXUA primarily relies on alpine snowmelt, with construction land overlapping high evapotranspiration areas. Based on the assessment of ecosystem services, urban expansion, delineation of ecological red lines, and improvement of cropland quality in the LXUA were proposed. These findings and recommendations can provide a scientific basis for policy makers and planning managers in the future.

A novel portable in situ analyzer for highly sensitive monitoring of organophosphorus and carbamate pesticides in food and environment

The presence of excessive residues of organophosphorus (OPs) and carbamate (CPs) pesticides in food and the environment poses a significant threat to human health and ecological sustainability. Herein, we reported a dual-readout, portable, and highly sensitive photoelectric analyzer (DPHP-analyzer) to achieve rapid and accurate monitoring of OPs and CPs. The dual signal strategy is mainly achieved by controlling the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the presence of OPs to catalyze acetylthiocholine (ATCh) and generate thiocholine (TCh), which specifically induced the conversion of colorless Ellman's reagent (DTNB) into yellow 5-thio-2-nitrobenzoic acid (TNB). Simultaneously, the utilization of positively charged TNB as an absorber can induce a dynamic fluorescence quenching effect based on energy transfer mechanism. Fully cooperating with the above mechanism, a CD like, disposable array-based chip manufactured by 3D printing (CD-AN-chip) was designed and integrated to deliver reagents. By use of this dual-output strategy, the analyzer and chip can provide good sensitivity and selectivity for the monitoring of diazinon and carbendazim (case analysis) with a LOD 0.38 ng/mL for carbendazim. And the reproducibility, stability and practicability analysis of real sample have been thoroughly validated simultaneously. Importantly, with the features of fluorescence fingerprint map, the detector could be employed for the distinction of various analytes and further be used for monitoring the nutritional environment within residential and public settings.
