A Comprehensive Analysis of Vegetation Dynamics and Their Response to Climate Change in the Loess Plateau: Insight from Long-Term kernel Normalized Difference Vegetation Index Data

The Loess Plateau (LP) is a typical climate-sensitive and ecologically delicate area in China. Clarifying the vegetation–climate interaction in the LP over 40+ years, particularly pre- and post-Grain to Green Program (GTGP) implementation, is crucial for addressing potential climate threats and achieving regional ecological sustainability. Utilizing the kernel Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (kNDVI) and key climatic variables (precipitation (PRE), air temperature (TEM), and solar radiation (SR)) between 1982 and 2022, we performed an extensive examination of vegetation patterns and their reaction to changes in climate using various statistical methods. Our findings highlight a considerable and widespread greening on the LP from 1982 to 2022, evidenced by a kNDVI slope of 0.0020 yr−1 (p < 0.001) and a 90.9% significantly increased greened area. The GTGP expedited this greening process, with the kNDVI slope increasing from 0.0009 yr−1 to 0.0036 yr−1 and the significantly greened area expanding from 39.1% to 84.0%. Over the past 40 years, the LP experienced significant warming (p < 0.001), slight humidification, and a marginal decrease in SR. Post-GTGP implementation, the warming rate decelerated, while PRE and SR growth rates slightly accelerated. Since the hurst index exceeded 0.5, most of the vegetated area of the LP is expected to be greening, warming, and humidification in the future. In the long term, 75% of the LP vegetated area significantly benefited from the increase in PRE, especially in relatively dry environments. In the LP, 61% of vegetated areas showed a positive correlation between kNDVI and TEM, while 4.9% exhibited a significant negative correlation, mainly in arid zones. SR promoted vegetation growth in 23% of the vegetated area, mostly in the eastern LP. The GTGP enhanced the sensitivity of vegetation to PRE, increasing the area corresponding to a significant positive correlation from 15.3% to 59.9%. Overall, PRE has emerged as the dominant climate driver for the vegetation dynamics of the LP, followed by TEM and SR. These insights contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the climate-impact-related vegetation response mechanisms, providing guidance for efforts toward regional sustainable ecological development amid the changing climate.

The Effect of Green Interior Programs for College Students with Developmental Disabilities on Plant Familiarity

Background and objective: The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of green interior (greenterior) programs on the plant familiarity of college students with developmental disabilities (CSDDs). To this end, this study developed a horticultural education program based on greenterior contents for CSDDs.Methods: In the first step, a greenterior program was defined by a focus group composed of specialists from industry and academia. In the second step, ten sessions of the greenterior program were performed. In the third step, the effects of the program on plants familiarity scale for CSDDs were examined. Participants in this study were 30 CSDDs in N university, with 15 students as the experiment group and 15 as the control group.Results: When plant familiarity in experimental and control groups before and after the greenterior program were compared, it was found that the mean of the control group had slightly decreased, showing no statistically significant differences (p = .795). On the other hand, the experimental group showed a statistically significant increase in the mean for plant familiarity (p = .000). This result demonstrated that the program has a positive effect on the plant familiarity of CSDDs. This demonstrated that the greenterior program had more positive effects on plant familiarity in the experimental group than in the control group.Conclusion: These findings suggest that the greenterior program was not only effective in improving the plant familiarity of CSDDs, but also had positive effects in the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor/kinesthetic domains. This study can make a significant contribution in providing basic data for implementing greenterior programs to help CSDDs get familiar with plants in horticulture learning.

Asymmetric role of environmental policy stringency, fiscal, and monetary policy on environmental sustainability: Evidence from BRICS‐T countries

AbstractClimate change is often discussed and serves as an essential topic among policymakers and researchers. This study aims to examine the impact of macroeconomic policy and “environmental policy stringency” (EPS) on “ecological footprint” (EF) and “load capacity factor” (LCF) for the BRICS‐T (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and Turkey) countries using annual data from 1990 to 2022. It also explores other environmental sustainability factors, such as economic growth and disintegrated energy. This investigation utilizes second‐generation approaches such as Westerlund cointegration, “method of moments quantile regression” (MMQR), and panel causality test. Furthermore, a robustness check is done using long‐run estimators, such as dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS), fully modified ordinary least square (FMOLS), and fixed effect ordinary least square (FE‐OLS). Overall, findings from the method of moments quantile regression (MMQR) test concerning EF suggest that economic growth and fiscal policy contribute to environmental quality. Meanwhile, monetary policy, renewable energy consumption, and environmental policy stringency mitigate the pollution level in all quantiles. Moreover, results from the LCF model indicate that monetary policy, environmental policy stringency, and renewable energy consumption improve the environmental condition. However, fiscal policy has damaged environmental pollution in each quantile. In addition, the study findings confirm the validity of the inverted U‐shaped Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis and U‐shaped LCC hypothesis. The long‐run estimators support the outcomes from the MMQR method. The empirical findings of the DH panel heterogeneous causality test confirm the presence of bidirectional and unidirectional causality between the model parameters, underscoring that policy interventions such as government expenditure, money supply, and EPS significantly impact environmental quality and vice versa. Thus, the study recommends allocating more funds for eco‐friendly technology, initiating a green lending program, and enforcing stringent environmental laws and regulations to attain Sustainable Development Goals.

Green initiatives and stakeholder engagement: Unveiling the impact of green strategies and CSR on financial performance from descriptive‐normative perspectives of stakeholder theory

AbstractIt is vital to bring about sustainable development by incorporating sustainable strategies to drive businesses to align their interests with those of stakeholders. Drawing on stakeholder theory and practices, this study explores the synergistic nexus among green environmental strategies (GES; e.g., energy management, waste management, green procurement, waste conversation, green environment awareness programs, carbon footprint reduction, green data management, and ecological operational strategies), corporate social responsibility (CSR), and financial performance (FnP) of multinational enterprises (MNEs) within the energy and manufacturing sectors of China. A total of seven hundred and forty‐three responses were evaluated by structural equation modeling through SmartPLS software. Findings suggest that GES have a positive connection with FnP. Further, this relationship is positively moderated by CSR. This study contributes to both the theoretical and managerial perspectives. It highlights the notion of GES and CSR by verifying the positive influence of sustainable strategies on FnP.

A meta-analysis reveals increases in soil organic carbon following the restoration and recovery of croplands in Southwest China.

In China, the Grain for Green Program (GGP) is an ambitious project to convert croplands into natural vegetation, but exactly how changes in vegetation translate into changes in soil organic carbon remains less clear. Here we conducted a meta-analysis using 734 observations to explore the effects of land recovery on soil organic carbon and nutrients in four provinces in Southwest China. Following GGP, the soil organic carbon content (SOCc) and soil organic carbon stock (SOCs) increased by 33.73% and 22.39%, respectively, compared with the surrounding croplands. Similarly, soil nitrogen increased, while phosphorus decreased. Outcomes were heterogeneous, but depended on variations in soil and environmental characteristics. Both the regional land use and cover change indicated by the landscape type transfer matrix and net primary production from 2000 to 2020 further confirmed that the GGP promoted the forest area and regional mean net primary production. Our findings suggest that the GGP could enhance soil and vegetation carbon sequestration in Southwest China and help to develop a carbon-neutral strategy.

The impact of green credit distribution on bank performance and influencing factors

This research aims to analyze the impact of green credit distribution by banks on bank performance and identify factors that can influence green credit. The study utilizes data from 46 banks in Indonesia during the 2018-2022 period, by using the panel data regression method. The findings indicate (i) that green credit does not have a significant influence on credit risk, as measured by the NPL (Non-performing Loan). The distribution of more green credit allocations does not result in a decrease in bank credit risk. Additionally, sustainable business borrowers do not exhibit better debt repayment performance compared to the non-sustainable business category. (ii) In terms of bank profitability, green credit does not impact ROE (Return on Equity) and NIM (Net Interest Margin), but it does have a negative effect on ROA (Return on Assets). Banks that allocate a significant portion of their credit distribution to green initiatives tend to experience a decline in their profits. (iii) Bank size has a positive impact on the allocation of green credit, with larger banks dedicating a greater portion to the distribution of green credit. Larger banks possess more capital and extensive networks, making them better equipped to address potential risks compared to smaller banks. (iv) Meanwhile, government ownership and good corporate governance in banks do not influence the proportion of green credit distribution. The author recommends that the government make corrections to existing green financing programs, to cultivate a green credit ecosystem in Indonesia. One concrete step that can be taken is to support government-owned banks in becoming pioneers in the distribution of green credit in Indonesia.

Adaptive green space management strategies for sustainable carbon sink parks

Green spaces, such as urban parks, function as carbon absorption strategies for the attainment of carbon neutrality. However, urban parks are at risk of losing their carbon absorption function based on changes in carbon flux dynamics due to climate change. Therefore, this study proposes an adaptive green space management strategy for establishing a sustainable carbon sink park by analyzing the carbon flux dynamics of urban parks. To this end, first, a system dynamics model was developed to analyze the carbon flux dynamics of city parks. Second, 10 adaptive green space management programs were established to enable the urban park to function as a carbon sink park. After evaluating the effects of the program, third, three scenarios were built according to the pursued values (ecological, social, economic). As a result of analyzing the carbon flux dynamics, the annual net carbon uptake has continuously decreased since the 2030 s. The amount of carbon uptake has decreased due to a decrease in the rate of photosynthesis, an increase in pests, and mortality. As a result, lawn area decreases, increases in broad-leaf trees, and decreases in lawn management strength were the most effective programs for increasing the carbon uptake by the following order. In addition, the ecological scenario was reported to have the highest cumulative net carbon uptake among the three scenarios. However, all programs and scenarios could not prevent urban parks from losing their carbon sink function. These results presented the flexibility of carbon flux dynamics and how climate change threatened the sustainability of carbon sink parks. According to the results of this study, an adaptive green space management program should be modified to increase carbon sequestration without degrading other functions of urban parks. A further study will be conducted to expand the system dynamics model and analyze the effects of the modified program.

Investigating green initiatives at South African public universities

Purpose: All institutions of higher learning including public universities in South Africa must participate in green programmes in order to be considered socially responsible. This requires a better understanding of the green environment and green initiatives. Hence, the primary objective is to identify and investigate the existing green initiatives implemented at South African universities.
 Design/Methodology/Approach: The study investigated five key green initiatives: 1) Renewable energy generation and consumption. 2) Water-saving technology and consumption. 3) Waste management. 4) Sustainable buildings. 5) Personnel training and awareness creation. A five-point Likert scale collected data across 18 criteria measuring the five green initiatives. University managers completed and returned 149 questionnaires but only 144 were usable.
 Findings: The data has marginal reliability (α=0.412), acceptable sample adequacy (KMO=0.531) and significance at the 95% confidence level (p≤0.05). The results show that universities implement 20-25% of their green initiatives. The exploratory factor analysis identified seven factors explaining a cumulative variance of 56.14%. They are: 1) Recovering natural resources and recycling. 2) Supportive infrastructure. 3) Reallocation of resources. 4) Conservation of natural resources. 5) Leadership involvement and improved communication. 6) Improved technology.7) Efficient use of financial resources.
 Conclusion: This research contributes to the "going green at universities" of knowledge in South Africa. It is valuable to students, researchers, communities and the department of education in their pursuit to implement green initiatives at universities.

Estimating the economic value of environmental education: a case study of South Korea

Environmental education (EE) has received more and more attention worldwide. In Korea, there is a national consensus on the importance of EE; however, it is not as much of a priority as other education subjects or themes, based on annual survey results. This study asks how much value Korean citizens place on EE, revealing its value more objectively than the opinion survey. This study estimates citizens’ benefits from EE using the contingent valuation method (CVM) to elicit willingness to pay (WTP). The survey scenario detailed information about the Green Movable EE Classroom program managed by the South Korean Ministry of Environment, and its 1,004 participants comprised a representative sample of Korea. The results are as follows. If the average household’s annual WTP (KRW 17,575; USD 14.85) were expanded to the total number of Korean households, the total benefit would be about KRW 367.2 billion (USD 310 million) per year. This result can be interpreted as citizens being willing to pay that amount for EE. This study estimated the economic value and is the first empirical attempt to reveal the value of EE nationwide. This study expands the theoretical discussion of the value of EE and provides evidence for policy revision.

The Behavioral and Productive Characteristics of Japanese Quails (Coturnix japonica) Exposed to Different Monochromatic Lighting

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of monochromatic illuminations at wavelengths of white (400–700 nm), green (560 nm), yellow (580 nm), blue (480 nm), and red (660 nm) on the performance and behavioral traits of Japanese quails throughout their fattening period. A total of 300 quails in five lighting experimental groups were housed in their conventional rearing cages. Weekly live weights of quails were measured individually, developmental stability was determined, and behavior and fear tests were performed. The body weight averages of quails exposed to blue, green, and yellow light were determined to be greater than those exposed to white and red light (p < 0.05). In terms of the mature weight parameter and the weight of the inflection point of the Gompertz growth model, the averages of the quails exposed to green and blue monochromatic lighting were higher (p < 0.05). The most negative findings on aggressive behavior were observed in birds exposed to monochromatic yellow and red light. Although the body weight of quails exposed to yellow monochromatic lighting was similar to that of quails exposed to green and blue monochromatic lighting, green and blue monochromatic lighting produced the best results in terms of growth, behavior, and developmental stability characteristics. Consequently, it is believed that consistently using green or blue monochromatic lighting programs when raising Japanese quails may provide economic advantages to the producers.

Transportation Arrangement as a Basic Plan for Politeknik Negeri Medan to Become an Environmentally Friendly Campus

A green campus becomes one of the approaches to overcoming global warming. The green campus evaluation program currently being conducted by Universitas Indonesia is the UI GreenMetric World University Rankings, and one of the categories is transportation. One of the main contributors to pollution levels and carbon emissions is the transportation sector and is potentially to continue to rise unless sustainable prevention efforts are made. With its limited area, Politeknik Negeri Medan needs a more effective transportation arrangement to make it an environmentally friendly campus. Greenmetric assessments are conducted on existing conditions referring to the UI GreenMetric World University Rankings 2023 Guidelines with several criteria, namely the total number of vehicles (cars and motorcycles) divided by total campus population, shuttle services, zero emission vehicles (ZEV) policy on campus, the total number of zero emission vehicles (ZEV) divided by total campus population, ratio of ground parking area to total campus area, program to limit or decrease the parking area on campus for the last 3 years (from 2020 to 2022), number of initiatives to decrease private vehicles on campus, and pedestrian path on campus. The scoring result in the existing conditions is 725, or only about 40.3% of the total maximum value. GreenMetric scoring will increase to 1250 or 69.4% by implementing solutions for transportation arrangements in Politeknik Negeri Medan. The solutions are the use of access cards to filter unauthorized vehicles into the campus area, providing official vehicles electric cars and bicycles for use in the campus area, reducing the ground parking by making a vertical parking, utilizing buses as shuttle facilities for the academic community around the campus with a certain radius to reduce the use of private vehicles and supplementing existing pedestrian paths according to standards of safety, comfort and disability-friendly aspects by adding handrails, roof covers, directions, ramps for disabilities.

Delineating the Genetic Variability and Diversity in Green Gram [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] Genotypes

This study evaluated 44 green gram genotypes collected from the AICRP on MULLaRP to investigate genetic variability and divergence. During kharif (July–October, 2020), the genotypes were assessed for various morphological traits. The phenotypic coefficient of variation was higher than the genotypic coefficient of variation, indicating significant variability. Clusters plant-1, pods plant-1, and seed yield plant-1 exhibited the highest genetic and phenotypic coefficient of variation. High heritability was observed for 1000-seed weight, clusters plant-1, pods plant-1, and seeds pod-1, suggesting the influence of additive genetic factors. Genetic advance as a % of the mean was particularly notable for clusters plant-1, pods plant-1, and seed yield plant-1. Further analysis using Mahalanobis D2 statistics resulted in the classification of genotypes into seven clusters, with Cluster I being the largest. Cluster IV and VI showed the highest inter-cluster distance, indicating substantial genetic divergence. Notably, Cluster III represented by AKM 1801 displayed superior characteristics such as high mean values for pod length, seeds pod-1, 1000-seed weight, and seed yield per plant, making it a potential candidate for green gram improvement programs. In terms of genetic diversity, 1000-seed weight contributed the most, followed by clusters plant-1 and chlorophyll content. These findings highlight the importance of these traits in shaping the genetic diversity observed among the green gram genotypes.

Exploring social-ecological system resilience in South China Karst: Quantification, interaction and policy implication

China’s Grain to Green Program (GTGP), which is one of the largest payments for ecosystem services (PES) in the world, has made significant ecological improvements to the environment. However, current understanding of its outcomes on the social-ecological system (SES) remains limited. Therefore, taking the South China Karst as an example, a SES resilience evaluation index system was constructed followed by an exploratory spatial analysis, root mean square error, and Self-Organizing Feature Map to clarify the spatiotemporal changes and relationship of SES resilience, achieve the zoning of SES resilience and provide restoration measures. The results showed an upward trend in social resilience from 2000 to 2020, especially its subsystem of social development. Regional ecological resilience was stable, owing to a slightly declined ecosystem services and increased landscape pattern. Spatially, nearly half of the counties exhibited a distribution mismatch in SES resilience. There was an obvious inverted U-shaped relationship of SES resilience, indicating a clear threshold effect, and the constraint relationship of SES resilience eased over time, demonstrating the effectiveness of the ecological restoration program. GTGP played a positive role in reducing regional SES trade-off, but this positive effect was limited, reflecting the limitations of overemphasizing the conversion from farmland to forest and grassland. Regional SES resilience can be divided into four clusters, which were the key optimization zone for social system, the SES resilience safety zone, the key restoration zone for SES resilience, and the key optimization zone for ecological system. Adaptive adjustments for the GTGP in these zones should be taken to achieve maximum SES benefits in the future.

Intensive land restoration projects alter mechanisms underpinning spatiotemporal soil moisture variability at a catchment scale: A case study in China

Soil moisture (SM) is a critical factor for material circulation and energy exchange in Earth’s critical zone, but it is spatially and temporally variable. This study aimed to provide new insight into spatiotemporal SM variability and its associative controls in areas where land restoration projects have been implemented. Specifically, we compared environmental controls on spatiotemporal SM variability in deep soil layers (0–500 cm) of two paired catchments, one of which was treated by the Gully Land Consolidation (GLC) project and the other which was not, where the slopes of both catchments had initially been impacted by the Grain for Green (GFG) program. For this purpose, we used the empirical orthogonal function (EOF) to decompose spatial and temporal SM anomalies. Two dominant spatial and temporal EOF anomalies (EOF1 and EOF2) were obtained from six soil layers in both catchments, with an explained variance of 86%–97% and 32%–53%, respectively. These spatial anomalies that derived from spatial structures exhibited similar characteristics and controls in both catchments, while underlying temporal SM dynamic mechanisms differed. Temporal dynamics of the treated catchment were lower in the gully area (a relative flat region), while the opposite was true for the gully area (at a lower elevation) in the untreated catchment. The GLC and GFG programs both altered catchment scale temporal SM dynamic forcings. Results obtained from this study are helpful for understanding spatiotemporal SM variability with associated the hydrological processes in areas where the intensive land restoration projects have been implemented at a catchment scale.

How Greens turn gray: Green Party politics and the depoliticization of energy and climate change

Decarbonization efforts and sustainability transformations represent highly contested socio-political projects. Yet, they often encounter various forms of depoliticization. This article illuminates how a grand socio-ecological challenge like the energy transition gets depoliticized by an unusual suspect, namely Germany's Green Party. Based on a qualitative content analysis of Green Party programs, party conventions, and additional documents published between 1980 and 2021, this article traces how the Green Party has depoliticized the energy transition over time, emphasizing a shift from radical societal change to ecological modernization. The changing stance of the German Greens on the country's energy transition reflects more profound changes of a future society the party collectively envisions through their energy and climate change agenda. These changes result from a struggle between moderates advocating incremental political reforms and radicals aiming for more fundamental and systemic societal change. By merging sustainability transition research with science and technology studies, this article makes a twofold contribution: First, it proposes a conceptual framework to investigate social and political futures envisioned through energy and climate politics. Second, the article empirically demonstrates the long process of depoliticization for an unusual but critical case. Germany's Green Party has embraced a technocentric vision of the energy transition, thereby suppressing earlier notions of broader societal change, such as anti-capitalism and energy democracy. This article spells out implications for the wider field of energy and climate politics and concludes with suggestions for future research.

Environmental Assessment of Green Areas in the City of Campinas, SP: A Study of Sustainability and Biodiversity

Objective: To present a diagnosis of the environmental quality of three (3) urban green areas in Campinas, SP, so that the impact caused by urban pressure arising from the growth of cities can be evaluated. Theoretical Benchmark: Research has been conducted on sustainable development goals, smart cities and urban green areas, and can understand the importance of urban green areas in the sustainable development of smart cities. Method: Application of the LAP (Landscape Assessment Protocol) methodology, where, through Landscape Assessment using 15 metrics, the LAP CI index is obtained. Results and conclusion: The areas evaluated have LAP CI indices ranging from moderate with index 61 for the Taquaral Lagoon, 81 being good for the German Forest and 95, excellent for the Santa Geneva Forest. The methodology used can be applied to different types of areas, reflecting their environmental condition through the urban pressure suffered and having an inverse relationship between the number of visitors to the parks and the index found. Implications of the research: The research demonstrated that the methodology can be applied by different evaluators bringing different views about the environmental quality of urban green areas, precisely for the subjetive character of the evaluator in scoring the metrics. This environmental classification can help decision-makers create urban green area recovery programs. Originality / value: The research showed that the evaluation of urban green areas is an important ally in the search for sustainability in cities in order to provide better quality of life to the population.

Macroeconomic effects of green recovery programs

This paper reviews the literature on (potential) green recovery measures in the context of the global financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on their macroeconomic effects. We find that spending for renewables and energy efficiency is particularly promising with regard to macroeconomic impacts. Moreover, the empirical evidence suggests that green recovery measures are associated with larger macroeconomic effects compared to conventional non-green recovery spending. We also derive lessons learned with regard to open questions and issues as well as accompanying framework conditions which could enhance a macroeconomically successful implementation of green recovery measures.

Penanaman 1000 Pohon dalam Upaya Meningkatkan Kesadaran Masyarakat tentang Penghijaun Lingkungan di Desa Mbuju

Tree planting is a form of environmental preservation that needs to be cultivated starting from the environment around Mbuju village through the reforestation movement by planting 10,000 trees consisting of manghuni, white teak, rambutan, jackfruit, durian, chocolate, avocado which involves in this activity community service students and youth youth organizations such as babinsa, babinka, community leaders and local communities. It is hoped that the movement of 10,000 trees will be able to create the first step in public awareness to care about the environment. Greening can also change the weather, namely by absorbing carbon dioxide to produce oxygen through the photosynthetic process carried out by the trees. planted to improve air quality and prevent the impact of global warming. The method used is observation or survey. The conclusions from the implementation of the greening program for planting 1000 trees are: (1) Campus stakeholders, in this case students and lecturers at Muhammadiyah University, collaborate with the government, youth organizations and residents of Mbuju village to be directly involved in the program by planting 1000 jackfruit, soursop and rambutan trees. , guava, and durian; (2) The tree planting program has been implemented well, namely planting more than 1000 tree seedlings of jackfruit, soursop, rambutan, guava and durian trees in the spring area of Mbuju.
