Greens in Regulation: Biodiversity Strategy Implementation Across the Golf Industry
Although much of the business and biodiversity literature focuses on extractive industries, we turn our attention to the golf industry. Golf courses occupy millions of acres globally, yet biodiversity strategy implementation across the golf industry remains understudied. We examine biodiversity initiatives across three segments: golf courses, equipment manufacturers, and professional tours. Using AI‐assisted qualitative content analysis of 543 pa…
Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement? Determining the Optimal Mechanism for a Futures Contract on Recycled Plastic
New market mechanisms aiming to apply the tools of finance for addressing environmental challenges have emerged in recent decades, such as debt-for-nature swaps, voluntary carbon markets, and conservation trust funds. One market mechanism which has not received as much attention has been the futures contract. This case study and a companion case in this same journal examine the potential of exchange-traded futures contracts to address inefficienc…
Building Sustainable Markets: Overcoming Barriers to Recycled Materials Futures Contracts
Incorporating sustainability into business practices is critical for addressing contemporary environmental challenges. One promising avenue is the development of a futures market for recycled materials, which could stabilize price volatility, enhance market transparency, and incentivize businesses to incorporate recycled material into their products. This case study examines the barriers to establishing such a futures market, and the potential op…
The Pinelands Development Credit Program
The “Pine Barrens” are a UNESCO-designated biosphere reserve encompassing about 1.1 million acres in southern New Jersey. A state agency, the New Jersey Pinelands Commission, in conjunction with county and local governments, works to implement land management and environmental protection goals via a comprehensive management plan. The pinelands development credit (PDC) program is one tool aimed specifically at land preservation outcomes. The PDC p…
Sweetness and HPOWER: Waste, Sugar and Ecological Identity in the Development of Honolulu’s HPOWER Waste-to-Energy Facility
Recent studies have demonstrated the high spatial, economic and ecological stakes of solid waste management in remote island environments, like Hawaii, but also suggested ways in which conceptions of risk and identity have factored into stakeholders’ decisions regarding particular waste management technologies and processes. Through an analysis of historical and archival documents, this article examines linkages between a declining sugar plantati…

Towards an Affective Geopolitics: Soft Power and the Danish Notion of “Hygge”
The fate of waste in H awaii: Technology assessment and solid waste planning in H awaii, 1968–78
In this article I consider the initial period of solid waste management planning in the US state of H awaii. The State encountered a number of economic and ecological controversies during its solid waste management planning, a process that was prompted by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Some issues, like project financing, were common across the US , while others, such as the potential of waste materials to reduce reliance on imported foo…
Where nothing was before”: (Re)producing population and place in Ghana's Volta River Project
Significant infrastructural projects, and especially large hydroelectric dams, were envisioned and deployed by postcolonial governments to promote particular visions of industrialization, agriculture, democracy, and modernity. Newly independent states sought to annihilate formerly so-called backward and primitive landscapes and populations alike, promising to re-create both places and people as rational, economically productive entities. In this …

Modes of governing' and solid waste management in Maui, Hawaii, USA
Maui, Hawaii, USA is an island with sensitive ecosystems and sharply circumscribed spatial resources for waste disposal. Despite the State of Hawaii's preferences to the contrary, Maui remains heavily dependent on landfilling and to a lesser extent, landfill diversion techniques to manage its solid waste. This article examines the history of solid waste management on Maui through the lens of Bulkeley, Watson, and Hudson's (2007) 'modes of governi…

Mapping Energy: Cartographies of Energy Into The Twenty‐First Century
Energy" presents a number of complex and interrelated challenges regarding the environment, economy, and politics. In this paper, we argue that cartography should help clarify our understanding of energy issues, but ask whether this has in fact been the case. In a review of over 100 articles pulled from twenty‐three peer‐reviewed geography journals, we qualitatively assess energy maps published since the early 20th century, examining trends in to…

Powering “Progress”: Regulation and the Development of Michigan's Electricity Landscape
This article examines state-level regulation as it affected Michigan's electricity infrastructure system. Whereas many studies make central the utility companies who built and operated the system, I argue that Michigan's utilities laws and the specific actions of the regulatory body, the Michigan Public Service Commission, played a crucial role in shaping the state's electricity landscape. The regulatory process, and in particular rate-of-return …
