Differences and determinants for polluted area, urban and rural residents' willingness to hand over and pay for waste mobile phone recycling: Evidence from China

Kaihan Cai et al.

Summary: This study aims to identify the determinants of Chinese residents' willingness to hand over and willingness to pay for waste mobile phones (WMPs) using the contingent valuation method (CVM). The results show that respondents generally have low knowledge and cognition on WMPs recycling, and personal information leakage is an important reason for low willingness to hand over. The study also finds that residents of Guiyu have higher willingness to hand over and willingness to pay compared to other residents.

Attitudes and willingness to pay for clean heating by typical households: a case study of rural areas in Yongcheng City, Henan Province, China

Xuanxuan Guo et al.

Summary: Understanding households' attitudes and willingness to pay for clean heating is crucial for decision-makers to evaluate the potential for clean heating development, choose heating methods, and set subsidy standards. This study found that the majority of households are willing to pay for clean heating, with a willingness to pay more than eight times the current heating cost. Factors influencing attitudes and willingness to pay are different, and specific measures need to be taken accordingly. Additionally, elderly people and females are identified as vulnerable groups in the implementation of clean heating.

Practice makes the model: A critical review of stormwater green infrastructure modelling practice

Vincent Pons et al.

Summary: This review assesses the current practice in hydrological modelling of green infrastructures (GIs) for urban stormwater management. The authors found that most GI modelling studies lack justification for their modelling choices and fail to align modelling objectives with methods. They also identified limitations in practices like uncertainty analysis. To improve current GI modelling practice, the authors suggest the standardization of documentation, improvements in modelling tools, data sharing, evaluation of hydrological equations, and clear reporting of model limitations and negative results.

Ecosystem Benefits Provision of Green Stormwater Infrastructure in Chinese Sponge Cities

Rui Wang et al.

Summary: This study explores public perception of sponge city development and green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) in four pilot sponge cities in China. The survey finds that the public is more concerned about the impact of stormwater on their quality-of-life, while experts focus more on the environmental benefits. The study identifies experience, familiarity, concern, trust, age, and city as factors that significantly affect public perception of GSI benefits.

Estimating willingness-to-pay for a livestock vaccine among the marginalized: The role of reflective thought in discrete choice experiments

R. A. Iles et al.

Summary: The management of livestock diseases transmission depends on the effectiveness of livestock health institutions, disease monitoring and reporting mechanisms, and livestock markets. Understanding private demand for preventative disease measures is important, especially in low-middle income countries with weak institutions and mechanisms. The estimation of hypothetical demand for new livestock vaccines is challenging due to the nature of livestock diseases and the decision-making process of livestock owners.

Willingness to pay for ecosystem benefits of green stormwater infrastructure in Chinese sponge cities

Rui Wang et al.

Summary: Globally, green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) is widely adopted to address urban flash flooding and stormwater pollution and provide additional ecosystem benefits. However, the lack of research on people's preferences for different ecosystem benefits makes it challenging to optimize GSI planning and design. This study compares public preferences and estimates the monetary values of GSI benefits in a Chinese context using a discrete choice experiment (DCE).

Citizens' preferences on green infrastructure practices and their enhancement in Portland, Oregon

Katsuya Tanaka et al.

Summary: Green infrastructure has gained attention for its efficiency in controlling stormwater and preserving biodiversity. However, there is still insufficient knowledge about people's preferences for evidence-based policymaking. This study analyzes citizens' perceptions of six different green infrastructure practices and their willingness to pay for their enhancement. The findings show that practices with private benefits received higher ratings, while those without such benefits received lower ratings. There was also a wide variation in preferences and willingness to pay among respondents.
