Affordable and Clean Energy: CO2 Emissions, Resilience and Inequality
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sustainable development means building the resilience of both people and the planet. It includes implementing strategies which reduce emissions while also enabling more vulnerable households to transition to clean and affordable energy. This paper examines household CO2 emissions in Ireland to highlight those who emit most and least in key ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Public–private partnerships (PPPs) are widely used to deliver urban rail in developing contexts, although their contribution to public value remains contested. This paper offers an ex‐ante analysis of the determinants of perceived public value, using Mexico's Guadalajara Light Rail Line 4 as an illustrative case.

Ungulate substrate use in fauna passages
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Fauna passages are increasingly constructed at major roads and railways to mitigate the negative effects of infrastructure and traffic on wildlife. The function of such passages depends on design, including the construction materials, soil, and vegetation.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urban green spaces experience a mix of natural and anthropogenic noises, which could disrupt the vocal communication of several species. This study investigated how such complex soundscapes affect the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula, which communicates through calls, focusing on both sound level and quality.
