Rice Green Revolution in Sub-Saharan Africa - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: The time is ripe to pursue a Green Revolution in rice in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) as a means of promoting food security and poverty reduction. This is partly because rice is an up-and-coming crop in this region, and partly because, as will be demonstrated in this volume, we have now accumulated deep knowledge about rice cultivation in SSA. With the aim of generating relevant policy recommendations, this book attempts to show what needs to be done to realize a rice Green Revolution in SSA. It is based on more than ten years of empirical inquiries into rice production by our research team in selected countries, namely Mozambique, Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Ghana, and Senegal, along with the newly added case of Cote d’Ivoire. This chapter explains why rice is important, provides a conceptual framework for realizing a rice Green Revolution, and proposes several major hypotheses to be tested in this book
Natural Resource Degradation and Human-Nature Wellbeing Cases of Biodiversity Resources, Water Resources, and Climate Change - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: he worldwide concerns for deforestation, degraded soil, polluted air, declined water, endangered species and climate change are all well-meaning. Yet the causes, effects and solutions warrant meticulous scrutiny. The concerns have heightened in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, as there is a direct linkage between nature’s destruction and the outbreak of disease. It is imperative to protect nature by halting natural resource degradation to prevent future pandemics. In this backdrop, the book focuses on natural resource governance mechanisms illustrated with cases of biodiversity, water resources and climate change to identify the underlying causes of resource degradation, especially in the context of developing countries. It also attempts to bring forth a new understanding regarding the usage, management and conservation of natural resources in a sustainable manner. The broad concerns that arise in the contemporary era are to (a) conserve nature in all its forms and functions and (b) create an equitable home and achieve a high standard of living for people on this planet without destabilising critical planetary processes (O’Neill et al., 2018; WWF, 2016). These dual challenges are also delin- eated in the United Nations’ 2030 agenda for sustainable development. The Sustain- able Development Goals (SDGs)—17 in total—under the agenda include several goals (Goals 6, 13, 14 and 15) which focus on nature and the environment directly (Elder & Olsen, 2019; Scharlemann et al., 2020), while other goals have indirect environmental implications as well.
Contemporary Economic Issues in Asian Countries: Proceeding of CEIAC 2022, Volume 2 - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: CSR is the way in which corporations attribute their resources to take responsibility in order to improve the society and environment for a long term which goes beyond the merely economic strategy and legal requirements. It is one of the important factors affecting firm performance. Along with the shift from “traditional CSR” to “modern CSR,” our study assesses the impact of online CSR disclosure on firm performance of listed banks in Vietnam to fill the research gap both in theory and in experimental application. Content analysis and Pool-OLS regression methods are applied to calculate and evaluate the results of testing the research hypotheses. The results show that online CSR disclosure produces a positive effect on firm perfor- mance in terms of ROA indicator and the online disclosure of CSR information can produce protection shield to reduce the negative impacts of uncertainty events as COVID-19. Our study provides empirical suggestion that managers should utilize CSR as a strategic action to gain higher firm performance. This result implies that in terms of policy, it is necessary to establish standardized systems that guide and control CSR practices to enhance the effectiveness of CSR disclosure

نویسندگان: خلاصه: The People’s Republic of China (PRC) 1975 (the year of the “Rabbit”), Henry Kissinger arrives, the first high-level contact between China and the United States in over 20 years. Rabbits tend to be easygoing, gentle, quiet, elegant, skillful, strong inner compass, and particularly responsible. I arrived in Hong Kong in 1975, a “Rat” industrious, hardworking, ambi- tious, and perfectionist...difficult to work with. My adventure then takes me to Guangzhou and mainland China. Reforms by Deng Xiaoping rise to power in 1978, led to rapid economic growth in Guangzhou due to the city’s proximity to Hong Kong and access to the Pearl River. China continues to expand as a market, sourcing opportunity and as an economic global force. Since 1978, nine American presidents have held office. Four generations of political and business leaders in China have contributed to China’s growt
Economic Development and the Environmental Ecosystem The Role of Energy Policy in Economic Growth - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: The energy needed since the first day of human history is necessary for many things that are still used today to function. Energy is one of the main factors affecting the economies of all countries of the world (Martínez et al., 2022; Sun et al., 2022). With the increasing world population, the need for energy is also increasing (Kafka et al., 2022; Mukhtarov et al., 2022). Therefore, energy consumption tends to increase day by day. However, the energy supply is limited. This situation reveals the importance of the need for energy (Hong et al., 2020). Energy has various forms. The history of humanity has started to use energy with muscle power. Subsequently, heat energy was discovered (Dong et al., 2022; Dinçer et al., 2022a, 2022b, 2022c). Later, energy types such as coal, oil, and natural gas, which are expressed as underground resources, were discovered. With the industrial revolution, energy use has been moved to a different dimension (Zhang et al., 2022; Yüksel & Dinçer, 2022). With the industrial revolution and the introduction of oil and electricity into human life, energy consumption has increased a lot (Gielen et al., 2019). Energy is one of the most important elements that humanity needs. If the use of energy had not been developed at this level, many works would have to be done with manpower (Carayannis et al., 2022; Li et al., 2022a, 2022b; Yüksel et al., 2022a,

GCC Hydrocarbon Economies and COVID - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: 13 2.1 introduction The outbreak of the Covid-19 epidemic and the resulting economic downturn have undermined the already weakened position of the global oil and gas industry. Since the transportation sector depends on 60 per- cent of energy from oil consumption, movement constraints were quickly interpreted into reduced oil demand. Consequently, various crude oil indices reached their lowest level by mid-2020, when the daily global oil consumption declined to less than 75 million barrels, compared to some 100 million barrels earlier that year, before recovering afterward. The demand for natural gas has also fallen sharply due to widespread quarantine in various parts of the world, especially China, India, and
