Climate Change Mitigation in the Dairy Sector: Uncovering Heterogeneity Through Eco‐Efficiency Clubs

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combining climate change goals with economic targets is crucial for the dairy sector, which is a significant contributor to agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions worldwide. In this paper, we assess economic and climate change implications of dairy production with panel data of Irish dairy farms from 2013 to 2021.

Reducing Interface Energy Loss of Perovskite Solar Cells by Molecular Engineering of Hole‐Transporting Materials

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This study reports a new hole‐transporting material (WD03) designed via molecular engineering to regulate defect passivation and energy‐level alignment in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The propeller‐shaped structure ensures balanced charge transport and film quality. Consequently, WD03‐based devices deliver a high open‐circuit voltage of 1.194 V under
