Does Stakeholder Pressure Promote Green Innovations and Performance of Agribusiness Companies?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The sustainability of agribusiness companies is guided by multiple, sometimes paradoxical, interests. Green innovation is strategic for sustainable development; however, literature shows inconsistencies regarding its impact on environmental and economic‐financial performance.

Rational Design of Inverted F‐Type Heterojunctions for Photocatalytic Emerging Contaminant Degradation

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
The inverted F‐type ZnWO4/In2S3 heterojunction enables efficient charge separation and retention of strong oxidative capability through interfacial electric field regulation, leading to non‐toxic degradation of contaminants for sustainable water treatment.

Environmental Transformation and Trophic Transfer of Engineered Nanomaterials in the Agri‐Food Chain and Implications for human Health

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) are increasingly applied in agriculture to improve crop yield, nutrient efficiency, and food quality. This study examines the environmental transformation of ENMs, their uptake in plants, and their transfer across the agri‐food chain leading to human exposure.

Enabling a Circular Water Transition: Identifying Governance Pathways for Wastewater Reuse

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over 80% of the world's wastewater is discharged untreated, making reuse a widely underutilised strategy for addressing water scarcity. Due to the complexity of implementing water reuse systems, supportive governance conditions are required to steer this process and overcome barriers.

Policy Integration for Enabling Environments: Decentralised Water Technologies for Rural Water Reuse

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water reuse holds significant promise for addressing global water challenges, yet wide scale implementation remains limited. Decentralised water technologies for reuse have been highlighted as a potential aide in the reduction of water challenges, specifically for environments that have typically been considered ‘water rich’, and in rural ...

When Policy Is the Hazard: Institutional Legitimacy and Climate Risk Attribution Among Farmers in Water Stressed California

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how farmers perceive and respond to climate policy risk in the context of drought and argues that understanding such responses is as important as understanding farmer reactions to the biophysical impacts of climate change.
