Assessing mining‐related land footprints of global steel use with a global physical input–output model

Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 29, Issue 6, Page 1987-2004, December 2025.
Abstract The production of iron and steel poses numerous sustainability challenges, including the often‐overlooked environmental impact of iron ore mining through its land use. Although the global area affected is small, iron ore mining involves intensive land exploitation, with sites typically located far from steel users, creating a disconnect ...

Driving force analysis of the consumption of water and energy in China based on LMDI method

Energy Procedia, 2019
Abstract The rapid development of urbanization and industrialization in recent decades has put huge pressure on water and energy supply. In this paper, the critical driving forces of water and energy consumption in China are investigated to reveal the linkage between water use and energy consumption changes.

Synergistic sectoral actions can accelerate carbon reduction in consumption‐intensive regions

Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 29, Issue 5, Page 1718-1735, October 2025.
Abstract Cities play a pivotal role in global carbon mitigation, but conventional accounting approaches often obscure the responsibilities of sectors that consume energy without directly emitting, particularly in service‐oriented urban systems. This study develops a seven‐step analytical framework centered on the scope‐based emissions method to address

The Sources of Slow Declines in Agricultural Nutrient Leakage: Evidence From Sweden

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, Volume 69, Issue 3, Page 611-624, July 2025.
ABSTRACT We apply index decomposition methods to decompose nitrogen and phosphorus leakage trends from Swedish arable land. The results show considerable heterogeneity; changes in nutrient pollution coefficients (kg leakage/SEK of crop value produced) and crop rotations caused leakage to increase in some areas and decrease in others. Crucially, we find

The influence of industrial expansion on carbon dioxide emissions in China: The interplay of financial development and renewable energy

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, Volume 44, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
Abstract Industrial expansion in China often results in heightened carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions due to manufacturing processes' energy‐intensive nature. Nevertheless, embracing clean technologies driven by renewable energy sources offers a means to counteract these emissions.

Temporal and Spatial Trends of CO2 Emissions and the Emission Reduction Paths of Countries along the Silk Road Economic Belt from 1960 to 2060

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 6, Issue 4, April 2025.
Reducing CO2 emissions is essential for sustainable development but faces challenges like politics, resources, technology, markets, and energy structure. Compared with 1992, the gravity center of CO2 emissions in 2020 moved to the southeast of the region, shifting from the territory of Kazakhstan in West Asia to Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia. Reducing CO2

The Effect of Cereal Crop Type on Reducing Emission Intensity With Biochar Application in Monsoon Asia

Food and Energy Security, Volume 14, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
ABSTRACT Biochar amendments can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agricultural soils while helping to maintain food security. However, whether the effect of biochar application on emission intensity (EI) of non‐CO2 greenhouse gas emissions (including methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O)), per unit of crop caloric content, varies for different
