Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.ABSTRACT The rapid growth of municipal solid waste generation, particularly in emerging economies, has intensified environmental and public health challenges associated with inadequate final disposal. Although sanitary landfills remain the most widely adopted solution, inappropriate site selection can result in long‐term environmental degradation and ...

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Climate change adaptation requires more place‐based evidence to understand the context of historic, present and future vulnerability and how this translates to local patterns of risk. This study illustrates a globally relevant framework focused on multiple and often interconnected climate risks in a major coastal lowland, the Fens region, UK ...

The Growing Threat of Flooding on Transportation Infrastructure Across Texas Through 2100
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Flooding poses an escalating threat to transportation resilience, yet existing regulatory hazard maps often suffer from incomplete coverage and rely on static historical data, leaving vast infrastructure networks exposed to unquantified risks. We bridge this gap for Texas—a hydro‐geomorphologically diverse state with aging infrastructure—under

Roadblock Geographies: A Typology of Extraction, Circulation, and Authority in Conflict
Area, Volume 58, Issue 2, June 2026.Short Abstract This article develops a typology of roadblock geographies in conflict‐affected borderlands as extractive landscapes. Drawing on transport geography, it identifies how infrastructural variation—footpaths, roads and ports—shapes who extracts rents, how and to what effect.

Upzoning the YIMBY rent gap: A transit‐oriented spatial fix
Canadian Geographies / Géographies canadiennes, Volume 70, Issue 3, Autumn / automne 2026.Abstract This paper takes up the phenomenon of transit‐oriented zoning reform as an urban planning solution to the housing crisis that promises affordability, sustainability, and racial justice. I hypothesize that upzoning near transit creates a vertical rent gap that represents a YIMBY (Yes in My Back Yard) spatial fix, a targeted spatial deregulation

Past Carbon Emissions and Future Targets for the Olympic Games
The Geographical Journal, Volume 192, Issue 2, June 2026.Short Abstract The global visibility and political weight of the Olympic Games can inspire climate change action. Yet, at the same time, the Olympics are also significant carbon emitters. To date, however, there is a lack of a systematic assessment of past carbon emissions and extrapolation of future targets considering international agreements.

The Geographical Journal, Volume 192, Issue 2, June 2026.Short Abstract The commentary offers a simple heuristic framework to suggest how geographers might conceive and unlock the potential of alternative modalities of infrastructure‐based futuring to make a difference to how policy and action unfold in spatial future‐making.
