Actionable information and climate change awareness drive consumer selection of environmentally beneficial garden plants
Information on favourable plant traits changed participants’ plant selection. • Climate change concern promotes pro-environmental plant choices. • Plant recommendations and climate change knowledge impacted garden plant selection. Domestic gardens worldwide cover approximately 15–30 % of residential urban space and with the appropriate plant composition, have potential to help manage urban water flows, regulate temperatures and air-pollution. How…
Socio-economic, structural, and policy drivers of agroforestry in Great Britain
Agroforestry (AF) is a critical solution for climate, biodiversity, and food security, yet its adoption is hindered by a lack of practice-specific evidence. This paper examines the factors influencing farmer adoption of eight AF practices in Great Britain. Survey data from 315 farmers, including a Best-Worst Scaling experiment, is analysed using a spatial multivariate ordered probit model. The analysis shows that farmer adoption intention is stro…
Personality Traits, Trust in Institutions and Interpersonal Relationships Insights from Slovakia
This paper examines the association between personality traits and trust. In this paper, trust is divided into two types: interpersonal and institutional. Both are fundamental for cohesion, reduction of social fragmentation, effective governance and institutional legitimacy. The literature primarily identifies personal experience and anticipated adherence to norms as key drivers of trust. In this context, understanding whether and how personality…
Farmers’ attitudes towards, and intentions to adopt, agroforestry on farms in lowland South-East and East England
Agroforestry (AF) is a land use that incorporates growing trees into agricultural crops and/or livestock production on the same piece of land. Due to tree cover and growth, AF has the potential to generate additional products, enhance biogenic carbon capture and storage, reduce soil erosion and surface water run-off and improve soil structure and fertility. These effects are likely to improve farmers’ financial return with minimal land loss to ag…
Incorporating technical and farmer knowledge to improve land use and management for natural flood management in lowland catchments
Harnessing machine learning for landscape character management in a shallow relief region of China
Due to China’s rapid human activity expansion, landscapes have lost their distinctive and typical characteristics. This paper addresses this issue by proposing a landscape character management framework for the Beijing shallow relief area. The framework utilises machine learning techniques to assess and enhance landscape integrity. The process involves landscape character identification through Principal Component Analysis, Gaussian Mixture Model…
Perceived welfare deservingness of needy people in transition countries
Transition to the market economy and the related restructuring of welfare systems has produced new vulnerabilities in the formerly communist countries of Eastern Europe and Central Asia while simultaneously aggravating the existing ones. Given the limited fiscal capacities of the transition countries, this brings to the fore the issue of which of the new and old vulnerable groups of people are considered to be deserving of public support. Using d…
Welfare solidarities in the age of mass migration
Welfare opinion research has traditionally viewed migration as a potential hazard for welfare solidarity. In this article, we argue that while increased presence of foreigners can indeed make some people less supportive of public welfare provision in general or trigger opposition to migrants’ social rights, the link between migration and solidarity is not universally a negative one. Instead, many people can combine support for migration with high…
