An analytical framework of quantifying carbon emission impacts of construction and demolition waste circularity and trading
Developing a circular economy (CE) for construction and demolition waste (CDW) presents a promising pathway to decarbonize the construction industry by reducing reliance on carbon-intensive primary material production. However, most existing studies rely on life cycle assessment (LCA) approaches and treat CDW flows as isolated processes, overlooking the broader economy-wide emission consequences and distributional effects arising from complex int…

Applications of geospatial technologies for construction and demolition waste management
Construction and demolition waste management (CDWM) is a grand challenge on a global scale. Traditional CDWM has heavily relied on anthropological approaches, which may prevent stakeholders from acquiring a comprehensive understanding of a macro standpoint for developing effective strategies. The emergence of geospatial technologies offers a more objective and precise approach for CDWM to enhance resource management and support environmental and …
Spatiotemporal variations in the carbon emissions in china’s provincial construction industries considering structural paths
The construction industry contributes considerably to China’s carbon emissions. To reduce the construction carbon emissions (CCEs) in China, understanding the spatiotemporal variations in provincial CCEs becomes essential. However, existing literature fails to consider the variations in emission distribution especially by structural paths. Thus, this study aims to comprehensively explore the spatiotemporal variations in China’s provincial CCEs fr…
Deciphering how digital functions enable circular economy practices in construction
The growing interest in leveraging digital technologies to advance circular economy practices in construction reflects the global push for Industry 4.0 and sustainable development. However, a comprehensive understanding of how digital technologies can effectively support circular initiatives in the sector remains limited. This study addresses this gap by critically reviewing the role of digitalization in enabling circular strategies through an in…
Associations between neighborhood compactness, perceived accessibility to urban amenities, and mental distress of older adults in a high-density city
When green transportation backfires
Land-use carbon emissions and built environment characteristics
Assessing the impacts of connected-and-autonomous vehicle management strategy on the environmental sustainability of urban expressway system
Do Covid-19 pandemic-related policy shocks flatten the bid-rent curve? Evidence from real estate markets in Shanghai
A Path Analysis of the Effect of Neighborhood Built Environment on Public Health of Older Adults
Introduction: Health deterioration among frail older adults is a public health concern. Among the multi-dimensional factors, the neighborhood built environment is crucial for one's health. Although the relationship between the built environment and health in the general population has been thoroughly investigated, it has been ignored in the case of frail older adults, who may have difficulties in their daily basic living skills. A path analysis i…
Variations in outdoor thermal comfort in an urban park in the hot-summer and cold-winter region of China
Sustainable built environment for facilitating public health of older adults
In response to the United Nations' call to build a sustainable and age‐friendly society, older adults' public health, normally measured by functional capacity, has been of increasing concern on a global scale. The built environment is closely intertwined with the functional capacity of older adults, as evidenced by extensive studies. However, most studies have focused on exploring linear relationships between the built environment and functional …
Assessing the impact of the built environment on healthy aging
University Students’ Purchase Intention and Willingness to Pay for Carbon-Labeled Food Products
Carbon labeling describes carbon dioxide emissions across food lifecycles, contributing to enhancing consumers' low-carbon awareness and promoting low-carbon consumption behaviors. In a departure from the existing literature on carbon labeling that heavily relies on interviews or questionnaire surveys, this study forms a hybrid of an auction experiment and a consumption experiment to observe university students' purchase intention and willingness…
