Business and Biodiversity: Scaling Conservation Enterprises Within and Beyond Place for Transformative Change

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transformative change is required to address persistent and systemic drivers of biodiversity loss. There is an urgent need for innovative solutions that tackle root causes in place‐specific contexts. Evidence indicates that small, innovative, purpose‐driven businesses can serve as vehicles for developing place‐based solutions.

From Global Standards to Local Compliance: Implementation Heterogeneity in Cocoa Certification in Indonesia

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

Responsible Leadership for Sustainable Agritourism: A Multilevel Causal Mechanism Analysis and the Facilitating Roles of Social Capital

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the causal mechanisms by which responsible leadership (RL) promotes sustainable agritourism development in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. Using focus groups and multiple case studies across five exemplary agritourism operations, we examine how RL operates across multiple levels to influence sustainable agritourism outcomes.

Do Incentive‐Based Policies Reduce Firm‐Level CO2$$ {}_2 $$ Emissions? Evidence From EU Cohesion Policy

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.

B, N‐Co Doped Porous Carbon Nanotubes Supported Cu Single Atoms and B‐Doped Cu Nanoparticles for High‐Performance Electrocatalytic NO3RR and Zn‐Nitrate Batteries

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
The ToC image shows a porous B, N‐doped carbon nanotube decorated with B‐doped Cu nanoparticles for nitrate‐to‐ammonia conversion. The unique structure enhances charge transport, promotes the adsorption and activation of key intermediates, alters the rate‐determining step, suppresses hydrogen evolution, and improves NH3 yield and Faradaic efficiency ...

Opening the Black Box of Sustainable Investing: Examining the Impact of Psychological Distance

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the effects of psychological distance on investors' reaction to sustainability controversies. Based on two stated choice experiments among 142 German and 136 French student participants, we find evidence that respondents react more strongly to controversies which are perceived as less distant in social, spatial, or ...

Biotic and abiotic drivers of ecosystem functioning differ between a temperate and a tropical region

Ecography, EarlyView.
Any single ecosystem will provide many ecosystem functions. Yet, we lack large‐scale, systematic studies of how abiotic factors can directly or indirectly – via effects on biodiversity – drive ecosystem functioning. In this study, we assessed the impact of climate, landscape and biotic community on ecosystem functioning in the temperate and tropical ...
