Effects of long-term grazing exclusion on plant and soil properties vary with position in dune systems in the Horqin Sandy Land

Renhui Miao et al.

Summary: Grazing exclusion is an important policy in China for recovering degraded grasslands, but its effects on sand dune ecosystems vary by topographic location. Long-term grazing exclusion leads to increased plant density, cover, species richness, soil organic carbon, and total nitrogen across different areas in sand dune systems.

Does renewable energy consumption reduce ecological footprint? Evidence from eight developing countries of Asia

Rajesh Sharma et al.

Summary: The study explores the impacts of per capita income, renewable energy, life expectancy, and population density on the ecological footprint in eight developing countries of South and Southeast Asia from 1990 to 2015. The results show that renewable energy has significantly reduced the ecological footprint, while population density has led to increased pollution emissions. Additionally, the association between per capita income and ecological footprint is found to be N-shaped.

A machine learning approach on the relationship among solar and wind energy production, coal consumption, GDP, and CO2 emissions

Cosimo Magazzino et al.

Summary: China, India, and the USA are the world's largest energy consumers and CO2 emitters, playing a crucial role in environmental solutions. Research shows that while China and the USA are predicted to reduce carbon emissions, India is predicted to increase CO2 emissions. To curb CO2 emissions, India must further enhance the use of low-carbon sources in its power supply.

Public spending and green economic growth in BRI region: Mediating role of green finance

Dongyang Zhang et al.

Summary: The study found that public spending on education, research, and development (R&D) has fluctuating impacts on green economic growth and energy efficiency in Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) member countries, mainly due to non-serious nature of government policies. The research also revealed that investment in human resources and green energy technologies can lead to a sustainable green economy through labor and technology-oriented production activities.
