The Role of Awareness in Sustainable Construction Materials Uptake in Developing Economies: Evidence From Nigeria

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable Construction Materials (SCM) are crucial for reducing lifecycle emissions in the built environment, yet their adoption remains limited in many developing economies, such as Nigeria. This study investigates how awareness influences the adoption of SCM among professionals in Nigeria's Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC)

Bifunctional Electrocatalysts in Rechargeable Lithium‐Gas Batteries: Material Evolution and Mechanistic Insights from Metal‐Free Carbons to Carbon‐Supported Single‐Atom Sites

Small, EarlyView.
This review charts the material evolution of bifunctional electrocatalysts for rechargeable lithium‐gas batteries. It highlights the journey from heteroatom‐doped, metal‐free carbon architectures to precision‐engineered carbon‐supported single‐atom sites. The discussion focuses on mechanistic insights into how these catalysts govern reversible O2, CO2,

Designing Participatory Systems Interventions for Behavioural Change: Integrating Soft Systems Methodology, the Theory of Planned Behavior, and Experiential Learning

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) operate within complex sociotechnical systems where behavioural change is shaped by interdependent cognitive, social and structural factors. This study examines a participatory systems intervention with food and beverage SMEs in a coastal tourism context in Vietnam.

Nature‐Positive Materials Engineering: Carbon Electrodes from Satoyama Biomass

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Nature‐positive materials engineering can link satoyama forest stewardship with the design of carbon electrodes for batteries, supercapacitors, and electrocatalysis. By turning underused firewood and charcoal resources into functional carbons, this approach reduces mining footprints while supporting biodiversity, landscape resilience, and regional ...
