A NOTE ON HIGH DISCOUNT RATES AND DEPLETION OF PRIMARY FORESTS [PDF]
Conventional wisdom implies that high discount rates accelerate depletion of tropical forests. As shown in this article, this result does not necessarily hold in a two-state variable model that distinguishes between primary and secondary forest stocks ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Certified companies translate voluntary sustainability standards (VSS) into local practice, yet little is known about how company‐level implementation of VSS relates to farmer compliance. This paper examines Rainforest Alliance (RA) implementation by three certified companies in the Indonesian cocoa sector. Drawing on compliance and regulatory

Multiple Use Management of Tropical Forests: On the Superiority of Land Use Specialization [PDF]
One of the debates in tropical forest management centers on how to manage these resources for multiple uses. In fact, although the need to account for multiple values in forestry decisions is widely recognized, its implications for forest management are ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examine whether incentive‐based policies reduce CO2$$ C{O}_2 $$ emissions among beneficiary Italian firms, using project‐level data from European cohesion policy. Exploiting quasi‐random variation in the timing of EU‐funded projects, we apply a staggered difference‐in‐differences design.

Deforestation‐Free Cocoa: Implications for Organizational Adaptation and Compliance Costs
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Mandatory due diligence is an emerging policy instrument for addressing global environmental challenges, yet how such regulations reshape firm‐level organizational structures and generate compliance costs remains poorly understood. Drawing on organizational theory, this study examines how companies in the German cocoa and chocolate sector ...
