How Do Carbon Emissions Affect the Performance of Listed Latin American Firms? The Moderating Effect of Financial Slack

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyses the association between carbon emissions and financial performance in Latin American firms. The scientific literature on this topic is limited, with little evidence available in this geographical region. This study aims to address this research gap by testing hypotheses focused on analysing how Scope 1, 2 and 3 carbon ...

Using Financial and Sustainability Ratios to Map Sectors. An Approach With Compositional Data

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The article aims to visualize in a single graph Spanish fish and meat processing companies with respect to solvency, energy, waste and water intensity and gender employment gap. These financial, environmental, and social indicators are ratios, which require specific statistical analysis methods.

Trading away forests: embodied deforestation in agriculture and livestock through a gravity model

Environmental Research Letters
Global trade in agricultural and livestock commodities plays a significant role in driving deforestation, as land-use changes in producer countries often supply consumption in distant regions.

Freshwater fish functional diversity shows diverse responses to human activities, but consistently declines in the tropics

Ecography, EarlyView.
Freshwater environments are intertwined with human activities and the consequence has been environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. Fish provide key ecological and economic benefits, and fish abundance and diversity can be affected by human activities resulting in functional diversity (FD) changes that might scale up to ecosystem impacts ...

The scaling of seed‐dispersal specialization in interaction networks across levels of organization

Ecography, EarlyView.
Natural ecosystems are characterized by a specialization pattern where few species are common while many others are rare. In ecological networks involving biotic interactions, specialization operates as a continuum at individual, species, and community levels. Theory predicts that ecological and evolutionary factors can primarily explain specialization.

Shifting baselines increase the risk of misinterpreting biodiversity trends

Ecography, EarlyView.
Ecological studies quantifying the impact of land‐use change on biodiversity may be sensitive to the choice of reference points – or baselines – particularly when sampling across human land‐use gradients and other space‐for‐time comparisons. Much depends on whether the chosen baseline has already undergone shifts in species composition because of ...

Framing Effects on Public Support and Behavioral Responses to Sustainable Forest Management in South Korea

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite South Korea's extensive forest coverage, which accounts for approximately 63% of its total land area, the country imports over 83% of its timber needs and has shown a gradual decline in forest carbon sequestration capacity. The Circular Forest Management Policy (CFMP) addresses these challenges through systematic forest resource ...
