Resolving the biome debate: ecological and palaeo‐data concur that the extensive tree‐limited grassy biomes of central and north‐western Madagascar are largely anthropogenic

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For millennia, human activities have transformed ecosystems globally. Determining which landscapes are predominantly anthropogenic is crucial to conservation and habitat restoration. Madagascar, a critically‐threatened biodiversity hotspot, is a prominent example.

Precessional variation of monsoon-controlled silicate weathering caused steady atmospheric carbon dioxide consumption during glacial periods

Communications Earth & Environment
Silicate weathering regulates climate as a critical carbon sink, yet understanding its role in the carbon cycle is challenging because of limited knowledge about the impact of temperature and rainfall on weathering during glacial-interglacial cycles ...

From Green Governance to Biodiversity Strategy: The Role of Environmentally Experienced Directors in Chinese Firms

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how directors with environmental protection (EP) backgrounds influence corporate biodiversity concern (BIO) among Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2008 to 2023. Drawing on Upper Echelons Theory, we argue that directors' environmental expertise shapes firms' biodiversity strategies.

Do High Temperatures Affect Firm Demography? Evidence From Italy

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyses the impact of high temperatures and heat stress on Italian firm demography during 2009–2022. Combining provincial‐firm‐level data with a high‐resolution multidecadal meteorological dataset, we investigate whether high temperatures—absolute and anomalous—affect firm entry and exit rates.

Post With Care: How Language Use Influences the Effectiveness of CEOs' Climate‐Related Messages on Social Media

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chief executive officers (CEOs) play a pivotal role in shaping public discourse on climate change through social media, yet how their language use affects the effectiveness of climate‐related posts remains unclear. Drawing on schema‐congruity theory and leader role expectations, we conceptualize certainty in language as congruent and anxiety ...

Enhanced silicate weathering during glacial lowstands: new evidence from shelf sediments in the northern South China Sea

Quaternary Science Advances
The enhanced silicate weathering on tropical continental shelves has been linked to the exposure of unconsolidated sediments during glacial lowstands, contributing to atmospheric CO2 consumption.

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.
