Lithium import demand and electric vehicle market growth in Europe
Electromobility plays a pivotal role in enhancing sustainability within the global transportation sector, with a significant reliance on lithium-ion batteries for the operation of electric vehicles (EVs). The concentration of lithium resources and the challenges posed by geopolitical turbulence and fluctuating economic policies are major concerns affecting the smooth trade of lithium. This study investigates the dynamics between EV market growth …
How do clean and fossil fuel energy innovations impact Saudi Arabia’s environmental safety? The moderating role of climate governance
This study addresses a critical gap in the literature by shifting the focus from energy consumption to the underexplored role of energy innovation (clean and dirty) in environmental health. We investigate how decomposed energy innovation, proxied by clean and fossil fuel energy patents, influences environmental safety in Saudi Arabia, proxied by CO2 emissions. The analysis incorporates newly constructed measures of climate governance, financial d…
The consequences of migration and displacement for mental health
This study explores the psychosocial consequences of recurrent environmental displacement among river-nomadic (Bede) communities in Bangladesh, emphasizing how cyclical mobility, ecological degradation, and social marginalization shape mental health and resilience. A qualitative phenomenological approach was adopted, analyzing twelve in-depth interviews and one focus group discussion from three Jamuna River settlements (2025 monsoon season) via N…

Is Nudging Effective in Promoting Blue Bond Investment? Evidence From Japanese Retail Investors
This study examines how behavioral nudges influence Japanese retail investors' willingness to invest in blue bonds (BBs) denominated in JPY and USD. Using the MINDSPACE framework, which identifies nine key nudges, the study applies the double‐bounded dichotomous choice contingent valuation method (DBDC‐CVM) to assess willingness to invest at different interest rate levels. Data were collected from 1215 investors via an online survey in August 202…
Shaping a sustainable future
This study extends the gravity model to examine how Russian aluminum exports respond to increases in renewable energy production across 58 global trading partners from 1990 to 2022. This objective is realized by estimating an augmented gravity model using quantiles via moments and the Driscoll and Kraay standard error approaches. The findings reveal a significant positive impact of the renewable energy transition on the export flow of Russian alu…
Synergy between energy technologies and CO2 emitting goods trade in leading energy-intensive economies
The trade of CO2 emissions encompasses the balance of exports and imports related to goods that contribute to carbon dioxide emissions. However, energy technologies, whether clean or carbon-intensive, significantly influence this trade. We investigate the impact of decomposed energy technologies, both clean and fossil fuel-based, on the export of CO2 emitting goods from the world’s top energy-intensive countries during the period from 1990 to 202…
Revealing the interrelationship of economic, environmental, and social factors with globalization in G-7 countries tourism growth

This study explores the dynamic relationship between climate change, econo…
Financial stability in G-20 economies
After the global financial crisis, the tricky interconnectedness among the global financial markets become apparent. We investigate the impact of Economic Policy Uncertainty (EPU), and distinct oil price shocks on the financial stress (FSI) of G-20 to see how financial instability dynamically reacts to these external risks and whether the Institutional Quality (InQ) has any moderating impact on the financial stress of G-20 in presence of these ri…

Sea-level rise and mental health among coastal communities
This is the first large-scale empirical study examining the impact of sea-level rise induced by climate change on mental health outcomes among coastal communities. The study focuses on Bangladesh, a country severely affected by salinity ingress, flood risks, and agricultural damage due to sea-level changes. Participants ( n = 1,200) randomly selected from three coastal regions each having high, moderate, or low vulnerability to sea-level rise wer…
Green versus grey
To effectively address climate change, economies worldwide must transition from grey, fossil fuel–dependent models to green, renewable energy–based systems, thereby striving to reduce global warming. However, a comparative study of how internal and external macro-economic dynamics influence both grey and green energy sources remains significantly underexplored. This study examines the effects of aggregated, renewable and non-renewable energy on e…
Transmission and Volatility Mechanisms of Mineral and Oil Prices in the Context of Clean Energy Transition
The prices that govern the output of producers in specific industries hold great significance, particularly in the context of the renewable energy industry, which is profoundly influenced by the dynamics of critical mineral prices. Oil prices also affect mineral transportation and cost-competitive consumer choices, altering the renewable energy sector. This study examines the global transmission of shocks and volatility spillover effects of essen…

Vulnerability of fishery-based livelihoods to the impacts of climate variability and change
Globally, fisheries support livelihoods of over half a billion people who are exposed to multiple climatic stresses and shocks that affect their capacity to subsist. Yet, only limited research exists on the vulnerability of fishery-based livelihood systems to climate change. We assess the vulnerability of fishery-based livelihoods to the impacts of climate variability and change in two coastal fishing communities in Bangladesh. We use a composite…

Climatic Impacts and Responses of Migratory and Non-Migratory Fishers of the Padma River, Bangladesh
This study empirically assesses the impacts of climatic events on the inland fishers (i.e., migratory and non-migratory) in Bangladesh and explores their responses to those events. Here, the migratory refers to the fishers who change their fishing location seasonally and voluntarily, whereas the non-migratory fishers fish in the same area. It is assumed that there exist differences in both the impacts of an event and the responses to the event be…

The Beasts and the Beastly
In 1794 Coleridge and Southey made a plan to set up a utopian community on the banks of the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania; the proposed society was christened Pantisocracy. The project, however, did not materialize. The differences between Coleridge and Southey regarding the place of servants in Pantisocracy and an uncertainty over the role of women in the community have often been cited as the key issues that led to the failure of the projec…
