The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Can Hybrid Organisations Solve the Paradox of the Triple Bottom Line, and Does It Need Solving?
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how B Corp certification enables hybrid organisations to integrate competing institutional logics of market and social purpose. Through a two‐stage qualitative design combining cross‐sector interviews with B Corps and an in‐depth case study, with a total of 30 participants, we analyse how certification supports hybrid ...

Benefit Corporations: The Moral Legitimacy That Requires More Rules
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines why Italian for‐profit firms convert to Benefit Corporation status and how they navigate the ensuing hybridization. Survey data from 118 companies are interpreted through a pragmatic and moral legitimacy lens. Results show that the main trigger is pragmatic legitimacy: managers seek to strengthen trust with internal and ...
