Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.This study investigates high‐mobility, low carrier concentration (CC) transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) as back contacts in bifacial Cu (In, Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells. These TCOs enhance rear‐side light absorption in CIGS and external quantum efficiency, improving overall performance by offering high transparency, low reflectance, and maintaining ...

Hurdles to overcome to achieve biostimulant‐driven, low chemical input crop production
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Crop production requires considerable chemical inputs that result in significant greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental costs. Biostimulants are natural agents, such as microorganisms or seaweed, applied to plants and soil to stimulate plant growth and reduce chemical inputs. Biostimulant use is rapidly increasing globally, but hurdles remain,

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.‘Greening’ is often depicted as an inherently benevolent practice, turning arid stretches of land into arable and fertile plots. However, by considering a longer history of place and taking archival records into account, such transformations are rendered more complex and, often, more fraught.

Agroforestry and enhanced rock weathering: A dual strategy for sustainable cacao
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Cacao production is both economically vital and environmentally intensive, presenting a major sustainability challenge as a crop largely cultivated by smallholder farmers in climate‐vulnerable regions. This review synthesises evidence that integrating agroforestry with enhanced rock weathering (EW) may significantly reduce emissions from cacao ...

Implementing potential climate‐smart practices through diverse partnerships
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Climate change is one of the greatest threats to society, negatively impacting agriculture and crop yields. Globally, agriculture is also one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting sectors. Climate‐smart practices that are developed through diverse partnerships with scientists and practitioners are needed to decrease GHG emissions. We implemented
