Journal of Corporate Finance, 2020
We investigate whether and how the environmental consciousness (greenness for short) of firms and banks is reflected in the pricing of bank credit. Using a large international sample of syndicated loans over the period 2011-2019, we find that firms' are indeed rewarded for being green in the form of cheaper loans--however, only when borrowing from a ...

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2017
Renewable energy is an important piece of the puzzle in meeting growing energy demands and mitigating climate change, but the potentially adverse effects of such technologies are often overlooked. Given that climate and ecology are inextricably linked, assessing the effects of energy technologies requires one to consider their full suite of global ...

Green solvents for green technologies
Journal of Biotechnology, 2017Within ‘green economy’ approach, growing area of research in the development of green technologies is devoted to designing new, more environmentally friendly solvents. As a promising alternative to traditional organic solvents deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have been dramatically expanding in popularity last few years as a new generation of designer ...

Physics Today, 2003
In 1828, an English miller from Nottingham published a mathematical essay that generated little response. George Green’s analysis, however, has since found applications in areas ranging from classical electrostatics to modern quantum field theory.

GREEN MARKETING FOR GREEN TOURISM
New Trends in Tourism and Hospitality Management : Proceedings of the 21st Biennial International Congress Tourism & Hospitality Industry 2012, 2012Mass tourism is a thing of the past for the tourist countries that wish to develop their tourism in a well considered way. For this reason tourist countries, including the Republic of Croatia, need to develop a new model of tourism that should be based also on so-called alternative tourism.

Is There a Green Paradox? [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010 A sufficiently rapidly rising carbon tax may increase near-term emissions compared with the case of no carbon tax. Even so, such a carbon tax path may reduce total costs related to climate change, since the tax may reduce total carbon extraction. A government cannot commit to a specific carbon tax rate in the distant future.

1988
If we begin by letting Greene speak for himself, we must contend with his taste for Romantic and paradoxical roles. He offers as ‘an epigraph for all the novels’ these lines from Browning: Our interest’s on the dangerous edge of things. The honest thief, the tender murderer, The superstitious atheist, demi-rep That loves and saves ...

IEEE Pervasive Computing, 2009
Pervasive computing's primary green contribution is its ability to turn dumb technologies into smart power-aware technologies. Although the operation of these technologies might save energy, when considering the big picture, the net saving might not be positive unless their operational life is sustained beyond the energy breakeven point.

Green thoughts in a green shade
Photosynthesis Research, 1990The author gives an autobiographical sketch of his path to chlorophyll research, and describes some results. The discussion is largely focused on long wavelength forms of chlorophyll and how they might be generated by self-assembly. Dimers or oligomers, (Chl)n, result from coordination interactions between the central magnesium atom of one macrocycle ...

The greening of the green revolution
Nature, 1998In comparison with conventional, high-intensity agricultural methods, ‘organic’ alternatives can improve soil fertility and have fewer detrimental effects on the environment. These alternatives can also produce equivalent crop yields to conventional methods.
