Drought, women’s time poverty, and the development costs of water collection in Sub-Saharan Africa
Drought can impose development costs that are not fully captured by income, production, or formal water access indicators. This paper examines one such hidden cost in Sub-Saharan Africa by focusing on women’s time poverty arising from household water collection. Combining harmonized Demographic and Health Surveys with geocoded drought exposure measured at the survey cluster level, we estimate how local drought conditions are associated with women…
The hidden carbon costs of aging
More habitual deviation alleviates the trade‐offs between dietary health, environmental impacts, and economic cost
Dietary transition provides a promising demand‐side strategy for sustainable development, although challenges lie in balancing the trade‐offs between human health, environmental sustainability and economic affordability. Our study revisits the trade‐offs through the perspective of population heterogeneity. Specifically, transitioning the Chinese diet from its 2011 baseline to a healthier alternative with minimal behavioral adjustments could inten…
Can we improve well‐being while reducing carbon emissions? Household‐level evidence from China
Understanding the link between well‐being and carbon emissions is crucial, as demand‐side emission reduction efforts should not compromise living standards. While a nonlinear, threshold‐based relationship between well‐being and carbon emissions has been identified at the national level, empirical evidence at the household or individual level remains limited. Using data from the China Family Panel Studies, this study develops a multidimensional in…
Repenser par le bas les échanges universitaires afro-chinois
Les jeunes Africains qui étudient en Chine sont censés contribuer à jeter un « pont » entre ce pays et le leur. Cependant, leur expérience est rarement envisagée comme le socle sur lequel est bâti ce pont. Cet article s’appuie sur une enquête qualitative et exploratoire menée à Chengdu en 2022 alors que les frontières sont encore fermées en raison de la pandémie de Covid-19. Les témoignages recueillis auprès d’étudiants africains francophones mon…
Farm level adaptation to climate change in north China
Climate change has profound impacts on agricultural production, to which farmers must adapt, but the role of farmers in climate change adaptation is largely unaddressed. This research targeted to construct an integrated picture of the farm level adaptation to climate change in north China. We performed a field survey in Hebei province, and uncover which farmer behaviours in reality constitute an adaptation and analyses the characteristics and het…
Institutional Changes and Changing Political Consumerism in China
The growth of consumption is one of the most impressive social changes in contemporary China. This transformation is driven and shaped by the forces of globalization, economic growth, political modernization, the emerging middle class, industrialization/urbanization, advances in information and communication technologies, and sustainability challenges. Given China’s unique historical, cultural, and institutional context, it is highly interesting …
Health Effects of Energy Intensive Sectors and the Potential Health Co-Benefits of a Low Carbon Industrial Transition in China
Background: The issues of environmental pollution and its effects on health have become increasingly serious in China. Energy intensive sectors are not only the main energy consumers, but also the main sources of air pollution. Analyzing the health effects of energy intensive sectors and the potential health co-benefits of a low carbon industrial transition is of great importance for promoting China's air pollution control. Methods: This study us…
Chinese college students' optimism and social creativity mediated by creative self-efficacy and hope
We explored the impact of optimism on social creativity and the mediating roles of hope and creative self-efficacy(CSE) in this relationship. Participants were 766 college students at 8 universities in China, who completed the Social Creativity Questionnaire for College Students, the Life Orientation Test-Revised, the Adult Dispositional HopeScale, and the Short Scale of Creative Self. The results showed that optimism was not a significant predic…
Health Effects of Air Pollution in China
Background Rapid economic and social development in China has resulted in severe air pollution and consequent adverse impacts on society. The health effects of air pollution have been widely studied. Methods Using information from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) database, we established a hierarchical linear model combining pollution and socioeconomic and psychosocial variables to examine the effects of air pollution o…
