Upcycling democracy

In their joint inaugural lecture, Stefania Milan and Joël van der Weele will engage in a dialogue between two disciplines that rarely speak to each other, namely economic psychology and critical data studies. They combine the wisdom of their respective fields to illuminate the drivers of human behavior and the role of technology in making society ...

Strategic Design Choices in Upcycled Fashion: Effects of Design Typicality and Material Domain Distance on Sustainable Consumption

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While upcycling clothing reflects environmental value (i.e., greenness) and distinctive designs (i.e., uniqueness), consumer responses to upcycled clothing designs remain underexplored. Drawing on categorization, cue utilization, and domain distance theories, two experimental studies were conducted with US female aged 18–45.

The Theory of Interpersonal Behaviour Applied to the Mediating Influence of Habit on Recycling Behaviour in South African Townships

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recycling rates in South African townships remain critically low, undermining progress towards sustainable development and the transition to a circular economy. This study applies the theory of interpersonal behaviour (TIP) to examine how recycling habits mediate the relationship between key drivers—past behaviour, environmental concern ...

Techno‐Economically Viable, Rapid, and Scalable Sonochemical Synthesis of AgCl Nanocubes for CO2 Electroreduction

Small, EarlyView.
AgCl nanocubes are synthesized within minutes through a rapid and scalable sonochemical method. Combined with outstanding catalytic performance, the lower production cost demonstrates the overall cost‐effectiveness of AgCl nanocubes for CO2‐to‐CO electroreduction. These results highlight economic viability as a key consideration in catalyst development,

Bio‐Inspired Mesoporous Solar Evaporator Enabled by Upcycled PET

Small, EarlyView.
Upcycled PET waste is converted into graphite‐containing porous foam for compound‐eye‐inspired solar evaporation. The resulting three‐dimensional evaporator combines a moldable porous framework with a hemispherical multi‐surface architecture, enabling angle‐insensitive solar exposure, capillary water transport, and efficient freshwater production under
