Intergenerational Altruism and Sustainable Development: The Role of Descendants and Age Effects in Promoting Future Well‐Being

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability challenges can be framed as problems of intergenerational altruism—how the current generation allocates resources to future generations. Institutional reforms such as Demeny voting assume that descendants act as intermediaries who enhance altruism toward the future. We test this “altruism premium” and evaluate two interventions,

Beyond Decarbonization: Human Rights, Vulnerable Workers, and an Operational Framework for Just Climate Transitions

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate transitions are widely presented as pathways toward decarbonization, green growth, and sustainable development, yet their social effects are mediated by labour‐market segmentation, regional dependence, institutional capacity, and unequal political voice.

Advances in research on layered double hydroxides for biomedical applications

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are pH‐responsive nanomaterials with broad biomedical applications. This review summarizes LDH synthesis methods and compares their advantages. It highlights LDHs' progress in cancer therapy, including chemo‐photothermal, chemo‐immunotherapy, and photodynamic‐immunotherapy combinations and their potential in bone repair.

Fusion Energy and Tritium Fuel Cycle: Hydrogen Isotope Separation Technologies and Sorbent Materials

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This review surveys sorbent‐based materials for hydrogen isotope separation, a key challenge in fusion fuel processing. Different types of adsorbents are compared in terms of selectivity, kinetics, and operational practicality. Limitations of cryogenic operation and tritium compatibility are highlighted, providing guidance toward efficient, low tritium

Generative AI—the Transgression of Technology

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article offers a systems‐theoretical analysis of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) grounded in Niklas Luhmann's sociology of technology. It addresses a central conceptual problem: How GenAI can be understood within a theoretical framework that has traditionally defined technology as a means of stabilising action through causal ...

Membrane Gas Separation for CO2 Capture From Flue Gas: Materials, Modules, Processes, and Application Prospects for Coal‐Fired Power Plant Retrofitting

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
This review systematically covers the full CO₂ flue gas membrane separation chain, finding it cuts energy use by ∼30% versus amine methods, yet faces stability and cost hurdles for large‐scale application. ABSTRACT As global climate change becomes increasingly severe, carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies have emerged as a ...
