Using A-share listed firms (2009-2021) and a staggered DID design, this paper finds that short-selling significantly mitigates ESG rating divergence among third-party agencies. Short-selling reshapes firms' information environment via stron…

Parth Sharma, S.V.D. Nageswara Rao

An empirical study examining how boardroom diversity affects the quality of ESG disclosure among Indian firms. It explores whether ESG-skilled directors moderate the diversity–disclosure relationship, linking corporate governance to sustain…

This paper explores serious games as a tool to reduce household carbon footprints. It examines how gamification can drive consumer behavior change toward lower-carbon lifestyles. Without an abstract, methods and results remain unclear, but …

Dan Zhou, Yifei Pan

Using LCA and a Spatial Durbin Model on 20 years of panel data from 55 cities, this study analyzes the spatiotemporal patterns and drivers of the agricultural carbon footprint (ACF) in China's Yellow River Basin. ACF follows a rise-then-dec…

This paper examines how carbon inequality is geographically distributed across the EU and how that uneven geography relates to differing political environments. It suggests that the distributional burden of emissions and climate policy acce…

Haoyu Cheng, Yuanfang Du

This study proposes a SHAP-BiLSTM approach to forecast China's daily carbon emissions (2,466 observations, Jan 2019–Sep 2025) and quantify policy contributions. BiLSTM outperformed comparison models, showing that excessive algorithmic stack…

This study evaluates how ready climate, ocean and biodiversity governance frameworks are for ocean-based carbon removal (OCDR). Authored at the Flanders Marine Institute, it maps regulatory gaps and the need for cross-regime integration. Me…

Chunxia Zhu, Hailun Dai, Ruiyang Xiong +1

This study decomposes agricultural carbon performance (ACP) into carbon sequestration (CSP) and carbon mitigation (CMP) to test whether China's High-Standard Farmland Construction (HSFC) delivers both. Using a 2007–2022 city-level panel of …
