Sustainable levulinic acid production from inulin via hydrothermal conversion
Abstract This study investigates the hydrothermal conversion of inulin using potassium pyrosulfate to levulinic acid (LA). The Box–Behnken design approach was applied to optimize the conversion parameters and analyze the interactions influencing LA yield.

Activism as education in and through the youth climate justice movement
Abstract Young people worldwide are increasingly participating in a global movement for climate justice, yet to date, little research has examined how youth climate justice activists conceive of and experience activism as education. The present study used in‐depth, semi‐structured interviews with 16 US climate justice activists (aged 15–17) to address ...

‘Let's talk about the weather’: The activist curriculum and global climate change education
Abstract Activist movements have garnered significant global attention on a range of sustainability issues, often involving collectives of citizens coming together. Invoked is the idea of citizens informed to act, emerging not from a common‐sense understanding of everyday life, but rather from a deep political understanding of the world—one that is ...
