Abstract

This study investigates the land use and land cover (LULC) dynamics in Bishoftu City, Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia, The LULC analysis from 1990 to 2020 in the area reveals significant transformations in land use categories: cropland, vegetation, settlements, and wetlands. Initially, in 1990, cropland dominated the landscape, covering 76% of the total area, with vegetation at 14%, settlements at 6%, and wetlands at 4%. Over the three decades, cropland consistently decreased, dropping to 74% in 2000, 73% in 2010, and 64.7% by 2020. Vegetation cover also saw a decline from 14% in 1990 to 10% in 2020. In contrast, settlement areas increased substantially, from 6% in 1990 to 22.8% in 2020. Wetlands showed a minor but consistent reduction, decreasing from 4% in 1990 to 2.6% in 2020. These changes are predominantly driven by urban expansion, deforestation, agricultural activities, and economic development. Accuracy assessments of classified maps revealed high reliability, with overall accuracy ranging from 96% to 98%. The study highlights the urgent need for sustainable urban planning, reforestation efforts, wetland conservation, and effective land use regulations to mitigate adverse environmental impacts. In conclusion, the research underscores the critical role of understanding and addressing LULC dynamics for sustainable development. Recommendations include enhancing land use regulations, promoting sustainable agricultural practices, developing wetland conservation programs, and improving public awareness and education. This study provides valuable insights for policymakers and urban planners to make informed decisions and promotes sustainable land management practices in Bishoftu City.

Abstract

In the face of climate change challenges and declining fossil energy resources, bioethanol is emerging as an environmentally friendly renewable energy solution. This article aims to review the potential, opportunities, and challenges in utilizing agricultural waste as the main raw material for bioethanol production. By analyzing various recent studies, it is found that agricultural wastes such as rice straw, corn cob, and bagasse have significant carbohydrate content for conversion into ethanol. Second-generation bioethanol production technologies utilizing lignocellulose offer higher efficiency than previous generations but face technical and economic challenges, including complex pretreatment requirements and high production costs. This review shows that bioethanol utilization can reduce dependence on fossil fuels while providing a sustainable solution for waste management. Policy support, technological innovation, and cross-sector collaboration are needed to accelerate the development of agricultural waste-based bioethanol, especially in developing countries such as Indonesia.

Abstract

The increasing degradation of the environment and growing demand for sustainability have shifted the paradigm in assessing corporate performance. Sustainability has three dimensions beyond profit, called the triple bottom line. The mining sector has critical strategic significance for economic growth, although entwined with high environmental hazards. Using EViews tool, this study explores green accounting and environmental performance's impact on financial performance of the business. Despite being based on data from financial statements, annual and corporate sustainability reports, the results are of paramount importance and read like this. These studies show that environmental performance has a strong and positive impact on financial performance, confirming the financial relevance of sustainability initiatives. In contrast, green accounting methods have no significant effects on financial results, indicating a disconnect between conventional accounting scopes and viable eco-initiatives. Collectively, these factors have a material impact on corporate performance. The research sectoral focus and sample confines its generalisability. Future studies need to explore intervening or moderating models and incorporate further variables in order to deepen understanding and broaden applicability. Our study adds to the existing literature debates about how environmental sustainability can be reconciled with corporate financial performance.
