In a transitional world, where countries strive for the achievement of better environmental quality through setting up various goals, there is a need for the substitution of fossil fuels and non-renewable resources which deteriorates the environment, with renewable energy resources which alleviates...

In the context of China's “dual-carbon” goal, digital financial inclusion plays an important role in agricultural carbon emission reduction. This paper analyzes the effect of digital financial inclusion on agricultural carbon emissions and its transmission mechanism based on provincial panel data of...

With the rapid expansion of science and technology, there is a growing hazard to public health from many forms of pollution in the air, particularly fine dust, which can aggravate or induce heart and lung disorders. Furthermore, this threat is expanding as a consequence of the rapid progression of...

Due to its abundance and lack of pollution, solar energy will soon be the most popular source of electricity production. Numerous factors, including the temperature effect, solar irradiance effect, shadow effect, incident angle effect, dust accumulation on the solar cell, shunt resistance, types of...

The applications of TRIX-based indices are more effective methods to understand the source, transport of contamination and its effect on the ecosystem. In the present study, the changes to the trophic status of Pulicat lagoon over a decadal scale using multiple annual and seasonal datasets for the...

The present investigation aims to study the performance and emission characteristics of a CI DI diesel engine using biodiesel blends derived from Jatropha seed feedstock. Four blends, namely B25, B50, B75, and B100, are employed as fuels to run the diesel engine at a rated speed of 1500 rpm, and...

Since hydrogen gas is a plentiful element in the universe, using it as fuel for IC engines has the potential to reduce pollution while also improving the engine performance. Hydrogen gas as fuel has many advantages, including a high energy density, a rapid flame speed, clean burning, and a short...

This study employs a dynamic fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) approach, utilizing panel data from 121 low-carbon pilot cities in China from 2007 to 2019. Grounded in complex systems theory and the triple bottom line framework (Economy-Society-Environment), the research aims to...

Due to the increasing global energy demand and consequent climate change from burning fossil fuels, researchers are getting more focused on renewable energies as a potential solution to the world's energy problems. Solar energy is a prominent form of sustainable energy. The solar photovoltaic power...

Drought stress has a significant impact on cereal-based staple food production, particularly in developing countries like Pakistan. To ensure a sustainable and reliable food supply, it is essential to develop comprehensive production plans that incorporate various approaches to mitigate the effects...
