ADAPT: An Autonomous Forklift for Construction Site Operation

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient material logistics are critical in controlling costs and schedules in the construction industry. However, manual material handling remains prone to inefficiencies, delays, and safety risks. Autonomous forklifts offer a solution to streamline on‐site logistics, reducing reliance on human operators and mitigating labor shortages.

Towards SDG‐Aligned Carbon Neutrality in EU Countries: How Energy Policy, Energy R&D Budget, and Sustainable Growth Shape the Transition?

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a comprehensive policy framework for achieving Sustainable Development Goals 7 and 9 and evaluates the EU's carbon neutrality target for 2050. In this context, the effects of renewable energy consumption, energy R&D budget, energy taxes, and economic growth on the carbon footprint are examined for nine selected EU countries

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

Strategic Design Choices in Upcycled Fashion: Effects of Design Typicality and Material Domain Distance on Sustainable Consumption

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While upcycling clothing reflects environmental value (i.e., greenness) and distinctive designs (i.e., uniqueness), consumer responses to upcycled clothing designs remain underexplored. Drawing on categorization, cue utilization, and domain distance theories, two experimental studies were conducted with US female aged 18–45.

Effects of Development Finance on Energy Transitions and Green Growth in Sub‐Saharan Africa

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While global agendas promote energy transition and green growth, Africa south of the Sahara (SSA) struggles with low energy access, highlighting a development paradox between climate goals and energy poverty. By aligning aid and development finance with SDGs 7 and 13, we analyze whether development finance is at a crossroads in supporting ...

From Proxies to System State: Defining Sustainability Management Against Symbolic Progress

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability in management is often measured through scores, ratings, and disclosure narratives that can reward symbolic progress while leaving underlying social‐ecological conditions unchanged. This perspective paper offers a definition of Sustainability Management as how organizations plan, organize, lead, and control (four management ...
