Growth, emissions, and climate finance nexus for sustainable development: Revisiting the environmental Kuznets curve

Songhee Han et al.

Summary: This article examines the relationship between growth, emissions, population density, renewable energy consumption, urban population, and climate finance. The study finds that the environmental Kuznets curve is generally valid in quadratic specification, but is largely not found with clustered data and cubic polynomial functions. The effects of mitigation aid vary by dataset, implying that simply increasing mitigation aid may not be enough to reduce emissions in developing countries.

Economic globalisation and inclusive green growth in Africa: Contingencies and policy-relevant thresholds of governance

Isaac K. Ofori et al.

Summary: This study uses macrodata from 23 African countries to examine the interaction between good governance and economic globalization in fostering inclusive green growth. The study finds that economic globalization hampers inclusive green growth in Africa, and that only government effectiveness interacts with economic globalization to promote inclusive green growth. Additionally, the effects differ across social and environmental sustainability dimensions of inclusive green growth.

Sustainable development of carbon sinks? Lessons from three types of peatland partnerships in Indonesia

Michelle Ann Miller et al.

Summary: Conversion of peatlands for agriculture in Indonesia is a major contributor to global warming, with initiatives in Riau province failing to effectively retain soil-based carbon and mitigate carbon loss. Public, private, and civil society actors in partnership programmes have prioritized other agendas over environmental concerns, while under-utilizing ecologically meaningful governance scales.

Dynamics of land use land cover and its impact on carbon stocks in Sub-Saharan Africa: an overview

Idowu Ezekiel Olorunfemi et al.

Summary: The Land Use Land Cover Change (LULCC) is a global trend that influences environmental change and sustainable development. Sub-Saharan Africa has witnessed substantial disturbance in the last four decades due to increasing population, contributing to one-third of greenhouse gas emissions. Soil carbon sequestration is viewed as a potential strategy to counterbalance CO2 emissions, but challenges in implementing policies to reduce deforestation and degradation still exist.

Mapping peat thickness and carbon stocks of the central Congo Basin using field data

Bart Crezee et al.

Summary: The world's largest tropical peatland complex is located in the central Congo Basin, covering 167,600 km(2) and storing approximately 29.0 PgC of carbon below ground. The peat in this region has been largely sampled in the north of the Republic of the Congo, but this study presents the first extensive field surveys in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which covers two-thirds of the estimated peatland area. The findings reveal that the central Congo Basin plays a globally significant role in storing tropical peat carbon.

The importance of institutional differences among countries in SDGs achievement: A cross-country empirical study

Carmelo Reverte

Summary: Based on the quintuple helix model, this research examines whether the differences in the achievement level of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) among 64 countries can be explained by a series of institutional variables. The results emphasize the importance of public policies in achieving the SDGs through improving institutional quality, governance systems, economic freedom, education, and the innovation ecosystem. The adoption of the quintuple helix model, involving the government, universities, and the private sector, is considered relevant for addressing the social and environmental challenges posed by the SDGs.

Global maps of cropland extent and change show accelerated cropland expansion in the twenty-first century

Peter Potapov et al.

Summary: High-resolution satellite observations are essential for monitoring global progress towards Sustainable Development Goals. The study shows that global cropland area increased by 9% in the first two decades of the twenty-first century, while per-capita cropland area decreased by 10%. This was primarily due to agricultural expansion in Africa and South America, leading to conflicts with the goal of protecting terrestrial ecosystems. Despite a decrease in per-capita cropland area, per-capita annual cropland net primary production increased by 3.5% due to intensified agricultural land use.

Summary: Global greenhouse gas emissions from five economic sectors show limited progress in reducing emissions. Decarbonization in energy systems is observed in Europe and North America, while fossil-based energy systems continue to expand in rapidly industrializing regions. Strong demand in Asia drives emissions growth in industry, buildings, and transport sectors, while agricultural expansion leads to emissions increases in tropical forest regions.

Summary: Climate change adaptation strategies serve as a buffer for smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa, but decision-making and implementation processes may involve trade-offs and synergies. The systematic literature review reveals potential trade-offs such as increased costs, labor requirements, and competition among objectives or resources. However, implementing multiple adaptation strategies concurrently can lead to synergies in terms of productivity, resilience, yield stability, sustainability, and environmental protection.

Summary: Agriculture plays a significant role in anthropogenic global warming through methane and nitrous oxide emissions. However, conventional reporting of greenhouse gas emissions using carbon dioxide equivalencies is ambiguous and may not accurately reflect the distinct contributions of different gases. A nuanced perspective on the impacts of different emissions is crucial for better understanding and communication of mitigation strategies.
