‘Let's talk about the weather’: The activist curriculum and global climate change education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Activist movements have garnered significant global attention on a range of sustainability issues, often involving collectives of citizens coming together. Invoked is the idea of citizens informed to act, emerging not from a common‐sense understanding of everyday life, but rather from a deep political understanding of the world—one that is ...

Giant planets: Clues on current and past organic chemistry in the outer solar system [PDF]

The giant planets of the outer solar system - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune - were formed in the same flattened disk of gas and dust, the solar nebula, as the terrestrial planets were.

The detailed chemical composition of the terrestrial planet host Kepler-10

, 2015
Chemical abundance studies of the Sun and solar twins have demonstrated that the solar composition of refractory elements is depleted when compared to volatile elements, which could be due to the formation of terrestrial planets.

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Applying a Systems Thinking Approach to Circular Economy Transitions: Insights From the Use of a Sociotechnical Systems Approach Within the UK Hospitality Sector

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite more than 20 years of research into sustainable tourism, the environmental impact of the UK hospitality sector remains high. A growing body of research into the concept of a circular economy (CE) demonstrates that transitioning to this way of working has significant benefits both for the environment and business outcomes.

A Decision‐Making Model for Implementing Green Technology in Sustainable Building Projects

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Green technology (GT) adoption is pivotal for reconciling environmental stewardship with economic viability in the built environment, particularly in resource‐constrained emerging economies. However, empirical evidence on how specific GT drivers actively mitigate adoption barriers remains scarce.

A New Database of Giant Impacts over a Wide Range of Masses and with Material Strength: A First Analysis of Outcomes

The Planetary Science Journal
In the late stage of terrestrial planet formation, planets are predicted to undergo pairwise collisions known as giant impacts. Here, we present a high-resolution database of giant impacts for differentiated colliding bodies of iron–silicate composition,

Navigating the Double Edge of Product‐Service Systems: User Behavior, Adoption, and Rebound Effects

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Product‐service systems (PSS) have been considered a promising approach to operationalizing the circular economy. Although many studies have outlined the potential sustainability gains of PSS solutions, it is still unclear what factors drive PSS adoption and how behavioral changes result in rebound effects, undermining their potential ...
