Abstract

Forest resources in Ethiopia are facing intensive degradation and deforestation due to agricultural land expansion, overgrazing, urbanization, invasive species, and climate change. Due to this, small isolated forest patches are left in different parts of the country through legal protections and religious sanctions. The study aimed to examine the country's highest woody species diversity among church, community, and national park forests. The remnant forest patches in Ethiopia were categorized into church, community, and national park forests based on ownership and management objectives of the forest. The diversity data were collected from a detailed review of published and unpublished scientific reports. The variation in species richness, evenness, and Shannon diversity among forest categories were analyzed and tested using ANOVA. The mean Shannon diversity of church, community, and national park forests were 2.95, 2.88, and 3.13, respectively. These forest categories have a considerable role in species diversity in the country. However, the variation was statistically insignificant at a 95% confidence interval. Hence, each forest category plays a comparable role in woody species diversity in the country.

Abstract

Environment and economy are frequently seen as opposing forces. For every government initiative to boost the economy, there is an equal and opposite measure to protect the environment. The overarching goal of this research is to provide empirical evidence of how green finance and fintech sway policymakers to reduce the economic-environmental trade-off. Secondary data from 2000–2023, together with a sample of ASEAN-5 nations, are used in this analysis. To determine the impact of the study's independent variables on environmental damage, quantitative approaches, particularly CS-ARDL, are employed. The study's findings suggest that the five ASEAN nations may lessen their environmental impact by utilizing green finance and fintech. The government, with the exception of Singapore, needs to move swiftly, since the expected decline is too sluggish. Among the ASEAN-5 nations, Singapore has the potential to do more to protect the environment than its peers.

Abstract

Nipa as thatch roofing material originates from leaves of nipa palm tree (Nypa fruticans). Although nipa has a long history in Southeast Asia, it has gradually been replaced by other materials. Nature school (sekolah alam), a relatively new education model established in Indonesia in 1998, offer a different approach to school facilities, one of which is the use of open-air classroom buildings. Balikpapan Nature School, located in island of Borneo, is one of many institutions developing the nature-based school concept. The school has adopted the Dayak Kenyah longhouse design, incorporating nipa thatch roofing in its buildings. However, one of the buildings has had its nipa roofing replaced with bitumen. This research investigates the heat gain characteristics of nipa roofing as a sustainable material in comparison to bitumen roofing. Analysis of the observational data using paired t-test shows a significant difference, with nipa roofing effectively reducing heat gain. These supports findings support previous studies that have identified nipa as an environmentally friendly material capable of providing better thermal comfort in humid tropical climates.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze research trends on the circular economy and supply chain sustainability using a bibliometric approach and to develop a conceptual model that can guide the implementation of circular economy practices. Data were obtained from the Scopus database and analyzed to identify publication trends, scientific contributions, and collaborations among researchers. The results show a significant increase in research related to the circular economy since 2020, especially in the manufacturing and technology sectors, with a primary focus on recycling, reuse, and remanufacturing as key elements of supply chain sustainability. The developed conceptual model emphasizes the importance of integrating technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, and Big Data, alongside  the Triple Bottom Line approach, that includes economic, environmental, and social aspects. Collaboration among stakeholders, governments, and consumers is also identified as an important factor in accelerating the adoption of the circular economy. This study contributes to the development of circular economy implementation strategies across various sectors and highlights future research opportunities, such as circular bioeconomy and green innovation. The proposed model is expected to serve as a guide for companies and policymakers in strengthening supply chain sustainability.

Abstract

The renewable energy system (RES) has recently become hot topic due to its unlimited, green energy potential, and the maturity of its technology. A solar charging controller (SCC) is required to regulate parameters for the battery and is an essential component for sustainable and renewable energy usage. An SCC based on a DC-DC Buck converter with cascaded proportional-integral (PI) controller is used in the system for managing the current and voltage loops, thereby preventing battery overcharging. The control parameters are determined using the Ziegler-Nichols method based on the reaction curve. A first -order system is employed due to the open-loop responses show no overshoot and oscillations. MATLAB software is used for both simulation and controller design. Simulations are conducted to validate the proposed SCC with the cascaded controller. Variations in the state of charge (SoC) are presented in two cases: without and with the controller. The SoC is set 20%, 50%, and 95%. A high SoC percentage indicates that the battery is near the full capacity, whereas a low percentage indicates that battery is near empty. Using the cascaded controller, both current and voltage responses at different SoC levels demonstrate satisfactory performance, including rapid transient responses, minimal overshoot, small ripples, and robustness.

Abstract

The scientific community has established a clear link between the built environment and various environmental problems. Various strategies have been implemented to mitigate the negative impacts of buildings and to address broader environmental challenges. One such strategy is the adoption of sustainable building practices. Among the factors contributing to the environmental impacts of buildings, efforts to achieve thermal comfort play significant role. Particularly due to the energy consumption involved. At the same time, thermal comfort is also a critical factor influencing human productivity, including academic performance. Comfortable learning environments are known to enhance students’ learning outcomes. This research presents a case analysis conducted at State Elementary School 91 Sipatana, Gorontalo City, Indonesia. Measurements were carried out on December 24, 2022, from 06.00 to 18.00. Room temperature was recorded using an Elitech GSP-6 data logger, and further simulations were carried out using Ladybugs and Honeybees. The purpose of this study is to evaluate building performance in achieving thermal comfort by considering solar radiation exposure, roof surface temperature, room temperature, and Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) values. Comparisons were made across different building materials, including variation in roofing, wall types, and ventilation systems. The wall in the existing structure are composed of concrete with a fiber wall. The findings highlight the impact of roofing materials, wall construction, and ventilation on the PMV, roof surface temperature, and indoor air temperature. Based on-site measurements, the average classroom temperature was 30.5°C. Among the simulation configurations, Model 3 which featured a metal roof with a cool roof technology, concrete walls, and added ventilation demonstrated the best thermal performance. It maintained a roof surface temperature just above 25°C and an indoor air temperature close to 30°C, showing the effectiveness of cool roof technology and adequate ventilation in reducing heat accumulation.

Abstract

Excessive ammonium and phosphate levels in aquatic environments potentially cause eutrophication, leading to water quality imbalance, algal blooming, and disturbance of biodiversity status. Electrolysis using a sacrificial magnesium anode effectively removes and recovers ammonium and phosphate, producing struvite (MgNH4PO4.6H2O). The present study investigated the optimum current density and the effect of the ammonium/phosphate molar ratio on struvite production. The current density was controlled at 10, 50, and 100 mA/cm2. An artificial wastewater containing [NH4+]:[PO43-] in a molar ratio of 1:10, 1:1, and 10:1 was used as the test solution. The optimum current density was determined as 50 mA/cm2. The ammonium and phosphate reduction ratios at a 1:1 molar ratio was approximately 46.91% and 74.26%, respectively. Increasing the ammonium molarity in the test solution to 10:1 increased the phosphate reduction ratio to 96.38% while decreasing the ammonium reduction ratio to 26.28%. The maximum precipitation of 4.1914 g was generated at a molar ratio of 10:1 with a specific energy consumption of 0.011 Wh/mg-P, out of the three ammonium/phosphate molar ratio variations. Microscopes and SEM-EDS were used to characterize the precipitates produced, and Visual MINTEQ 3.1 was then used for modeling.

Abstract

Fostering environmentally conscious consumer behaviour requires a clear understanding of eco-labels and sustainable packaging. However, there is a lack of research on how consumers in developing countries, especially Ghana, perceive these ideas. The study intends to address that gap by evaluating how customer perceptions of eco-friendly packaging and eco-labels are influenced by gender, age, and educational attainment. The contribute to the ongoing discourse on the predictors of environmental attitudes and behaviours. Data were collected through a cross-sectional survey with systematic sampling. Results showed that environmental perceptions were not significantly influenced by gender, age, or educational attainment. Although respondents demonstrated awareness of sustainable packaging, they had limited understanding of eco-labels, with 61% unable to correctly identify various eco-labels. The findings suggest that marketing strategies for eco-friendly products should consider factors beyond demographic characteristics. The complex interaction among demographic variables calls for a more nuanced approach to engaging consumers in sustainability initiatives. Further research is needed to explore alternative predictors of environmental attitudes and to design educational interventions that resonate with diverse consumer segments. A deeper understanding of what drive pro-environmental behaviour is essential to reduce packaging waste.
