Abstract:

Whole life, annual energy consumption figures have been compiled for the main UK telephone service. The total primary energy expenditure related to the provision of the national telephone service has been divided into network operations, the associated company infrastructure, equipment manufacturing, raw material processing and equipment disposal. A detailed analysis of telephone traffic statistics has been used to develop an empirical model of UK call volume as a function of call distance. The model is then used to provide a general expression for the operating energy required to power both intra-national and international telephone calls. The energy consumed by a number of typical telephone calls is compared with the energy requirements for equivalent journeys made by different modes of powered transport.

Abstract:

Abstract Plant-derived reusable resources such as biomass feedstock for fuel use and upcycling food products have attracted attention for solving environmental problems. In general, food products that are inappropriately consumed include various energy production pathways through the fermentation or gasification process, which would be attractive for solving the anaerobic digestion of wasted foods to make livestock feed. In terms of comprehensive aspects, the use of upcycling food products in various ways is also significant for abating environmental burdens. For instance, products made from unutilized food through cooking, such as jams made from banana peels, have been increasingly marketed. However, while the preparation of unused food reduces food loss, the environmental impacts of their life cycle have not been well considered. To date, our research group has discussed effective consumption pathways, including recycling pathways for the edible parts of foods. For instance, a 100 g edible part of tomato has an environmental impact of 35–57 g-CO2 emissions during the cooking stage. The environmental impact of waste would not be negligible. Therefore, the eco-burden mitigation in the entire life cycle stage is discussed based on the proposal of a practical pathway, comparing the other paths (e.g., energy use).

Abstract:

Background : Mental health is a condition in which individuals can develop physically, mentally, spiritually, and socially so that they are aware of their abilities, can cope with pressure, work productively and are able to contribute to their community. According to the Indonesian Ministry of Health (2016), there are around 35 million people affected by depression, 60 million people affected by bipolar, 21 million affected by schizophrenia, and 47.5 million affected by dementia, psychosocial, religious, cultural and environmental. Several factors that affect mental health are social life, such as the family environment, school/work, and the social environment in general. Patients with mental health disorders have a calm tendency to be in a safe and comfortable environment. The physical environment for mental health patients is a safe and comfortable environment prepared to provide social impact for people with mental health conditions in hospitals. Facilities that must be prepared to support the healing environment process include privacy, social support, and a positive impact on the environment. This writing employs a literature review method related to the topic Environmental Impact Analysis for healing mental health patients. There are 14 journals used in this writing. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the environment that has an impact on the process of treating and healing patients with mental health disorders. Method : This study uses a literature review method related to the topic Environmental Impact Analysis for healing mental health patients .

Full text

Abstract:

The scientific community is shifting its focus towards construction materials with a low carbon footprint, such as alkali-activated concrete (AAC). The present study conducts an environmental impact assessment using the cradle-to-grave approach to examine the environmental implications of three different types of ambient-cured AACs with varied combinations of precursors. The 28-day compressive strength values of the concrete mixes used for comparing environmental impacts vary from 35 to 55 MPa. Among these mixtures, the one with the least environmental impact is chosen for further impact assessment with the inclusion of fibers. Three different fiber reinforced AAC mixes containing 0.3% steel, glass, and polypropylene fibers, respectively by volume of AAC, are used in this study. The findings show that Portland Cement concrete has 86% and 34% higher impacts than AAC on the ecosystem and human health, respectively. In the production of AAC, sodium silicate is found to have the highest impact on the environment, in the range of 30–50% of the total impact. Among the various fibers used, glass fibers have the highest impact, which is 12% and 13% higher than that of the plain AAC mix, on the ecosystem and human health, respectively.

Abstract:

There is little research on the impact of environmental costs on plastic manufacturing companies’ financial performance and sustainability. This paper aims to explore the relationship between environmental costs and financial performance of two large national plastic manufacturing companies, namely Bowler Metcalf Limited (BML) and Nampak Ltd, between 2018 and 2019 since research allows for five year old information. Further, the study used pre-Covid-19 data to conceptualize. It adopted a qualitative method of inquiry using content analysis to analyze the financial statements and reports of the two companies (secondary data analysis) available in the public domain. The interpretative analysis further supported the analysis and interpretation of the two variables of environmental costs and financial performance. The results showed a positive relationship between environmental costs and profits in the financial statements of these two companies during 2018 and 2019. BML had a decrease in plastic penalties from R 23.171 million in 2018 to R 14.596 million in 2019, which supported a reduction in spending on legal and constructive obligation items. Nampak also decreased stakeholders’ equity from R 10,140.3 million in 2018 to R 8,932.33 million in 2019, which meant that the stakeholders’ equity funds were reduced, possibly due to reduced spending on environmental costs during that period. It can be concluded and established that when these two plastic companies spend more on environmental costs, this positively affects overall financial performance and improves financial sustainability. It is recommended to allocate more resources/funding to support environmental costs to increase the profitability of the two plastic manufacturing companies.

Abstract:

Foam glass was widely used as a green energy saving material with good performances of light, thermal insulation and sound absorption. Using waste glass as raw material for foam glass production, can not only turn waste into treasure and reduce resource consumption, but also protect the environment. In this article, the foam glass which produced in Jiaxing, China was studied based on the method of life cycle assessment (LCA), and the resources, the energy consumption and the emission of pollutants at the same time were evaluated. The results show that the characterization value of GWP is the largest. The foaming stage is the main contributor which accounts for 79.7%. Similarly, the foaming stage is the major contributor to AP, POCP, EP and HTP .The characterization value of ADP is the smallest. The foaming stage and annealing stage is the main contributor to ADP which account for 43.0%, 49.7% respectively. It has been found that the foaming stage makes the most contribution to the environmental impact. AP, GWP, POCP and EP of the foaming stage are extremely prominent compared to other stages. The authors used the methods of equal weight coefficient and AHP to weight the single indicator. The results show that the environment impact caused by the foaming stage is the largest, then grinding stage and cutting stage follow behind. The environment impact caused by the transportation stage is the smallest.

Abstract:

Contemporaneous reforms to Canada and British Columbia's environmental impact assessment legislation have the potential to advance Access to Environmental Justice. Access to Environmental Justice is the ability of individuals and communities who are disproportionately and negatively impacted by environmental decisions to access legal and regulatory processes and to have their concerns heard and addressed through environmental decision-making and dispute resolution. Access to Environmental Justice connects concepts of environmental justice, public participation, the rule of law, and access to justice to provide a framework for evaluating the implementation of environmental impact assessment laws. We conducted a preliminary analysis of early implementation of legislative reforms in Canada and British Columbia. Our analysis indicates that a number of factors influence who is seeking to access environmental justice through environmental impact assessment, including geography, project type, and the availability of a legislative mechanism that allows anyone to request an assessment. Whether Canada and British Columbia's reforms are advancing Access to Environmental Justice requires continued analysis as projects continue to be assessed under the new laws.

Abstract:

This study assessed the influence of matter discharged during the production (dry/wet) of recycled aggregate on global warming potential (GWP) and acidification potential (AP), eutrophication potential (EP), ozone depletion potential (ODP), biotic resource depletion potential (ADP), photochemical ozone creation potential (POCP) using the ISO 14044 (LCA) standard. The LCIA of dry recycled aggregate was 2.94 × 10−2 kg-CO2eq/kg, 2.93 × 10−5 kg-SO2eq/kg, 5.44 × 10−6 kg-PO43eq/kg, 4.70 × 10−10 kg-CFC11eq/kg, 1.25 × 10−5 kg-C2H4eq/kg, and 1.60 × 10−5 kg-Antimonyeq/kg, respectively. The environmental impact of recycled aggregate (wet) was up to 16~40% higher compared with recycled aggregate (dry); the amount of energy used by impact crushers while producing wet recycled aggregate was the main cause for this result. The environmental impact of using recycled aggregate was found to be up to twice as high as that of using natural aggregate, largely due to the greater simplicity of production of natural aggregate requiring less energy. However, ADP was approximately 20 times higher in the use of natural aggregate because doing so depletes natural resources, whereas recycled aggregate is recycled from existing construction waste. Among the life cycle impacts assessment of recycled aggregate, GWP was lower than for artificial light-weight aggregate but greater than for slag aggregate.

For this purpose, a sample of 193 different recipes of gray cement produced in Italy from 2014 to 2019 according to the European standard EN 197-1. This paper identifies the consumption impact categories (e.g., fossil fuels, renewable and non-renewable secondary fuels) that explain the assessment of the Global Warming Potential, one of the most crucial impacts of cement production. Having regard to the overall examined dataset and each cement type, a set of predictive models is implemented and evaluated. A similar approach has been adopted to produce accurate predictive models for further environmental impact categories that quantify emissions to air. The obtained results provide important information that can support cement producers to develop low-impacting cement recipes.

Abstract:

Road construction work has a multitude of impacts on its host environment, and the effect of these impacts varies according to the areas it crosses. Taking these impacts into account from the earliest stages of project planning is the ideal approach pursued by planners to ensure that their plans not only take these impacts into account but also mitigate their effects as much as possible. Drawing up a project schedule that considers the impact of the work requires an in-depth understanding of its scale, spatial extent, and timing. In practice, however, such an understanding is difficult to achieve due to the complex and variable nature of impacts. To help project planners understand the impacts of a road project from the outset so they can better plan mitigation measures, we have developed a conceptual framework for four-dimensional Building Information Modeling (4D BIM) deployment that visualizes the most significant impacts on the project site’s surrounding environment in terms of their spatial extent and progression over time. By testing the method on a case study of a road improvement project in northwestern Quebec, the method shows that, compared with traditional 2D methods, the proposed 3D and 4D impact visualization modeling provides an integral perspective for visualizing and understanding spatial changes in project impacts over time and enables different possible project implementation variants to be evaluated with relative ease.

Abstract:

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a crucial process for evaluating and mitigating the potential environmental impacts of human activities. Traditional EIA methods often focus on direct physical impacts, but fail to capture the complex social interactions and behaviors that contribute to environmental degradation or sustainability. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in leveraging social network analysis and data mining techniques to enhance EIA by incorporating social dynamics into the assessment process. This research abstract proposes an innovative approach that harnesses social network analysis and data mining to improve environmental impact assessment. By analyzing social networks and link data, such as online interactions, collaboration patterns, and information sharing, this research aims to identify influential actors, communities, and behavioral patterns that are significant in shaping environmental outcomes. The research will employ various data mining techniques, including network analysis, machine learning, and statistical modeling, to extract meaningful insights from the collected social network and link data. These insights will be used to develop predictive models that can anticipate the potential environmental impacts of specific activities or interventions. The findings of this research have the potential to inform policy decisions, shape sustainable development strategies, and promote environmentally conscious behaviors within communities. By incorporating social network analysis and data mining into the EIA process, stakeholders can gain a more comprehensive understanding of the social dynamics that drive environmental impacts and take proactive measures to mitigate negative effects. Ultimately, this research aims to bridge the gap between traditional environmental assessments and the complex social systems that influence environmental outcomes, leading to more effective and sustainable decision-making processes.

Abstract:

In the context of the national "double carbon" goal, it is important to advocate enterprises to make environmental investment, increase environmental protection investment, improve the environmental performance of enterprises, and take the path of green and sustainable development. This paper selects data related to A-share listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen from 2019 to 2020, takes the environmental protection input of enterprises as the starting point, adds financial indicators and corporate governance indicators and other related variables, and elaborates the relationship between environmental protection input and other related variables and the environmental performance of enterprises through descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and regression analysis as well as robust type analysis. This paper concludes that corporate environmental investment is significantly and positively related to environmental performance. The environmental protection investment of enterprises is crucial to the improvement of the whole social environment, and government departments should formulate relevant policies to strengthen the guidance for enterprises to increase their environmental protection investment, require them to strictly comply with the social responsibility disclosure system, and promote the in-depth development of ESG concept in China.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT This paper examines the potential use of computer models to estimate environmental impacts from oil spills. Computer simulation models for oil spills have long been used for risk analysis and have continually improved over the past few decades. Beyond risk analysis, however, these modeling tools could contribute to the estimation of the environmental impacts such as species mortality and shoreline contact. Proposed activities such as offshore oil and gas exploration and development can be analyzed using models that integrate spill-simulation capability with environmental resource and toxicological data. To estimate the potential use and reasonableness of such models for oil-spill impact analysis, the authors have applied a commercially available state-of-the-art spill model using previously unavailable historical winds and currents data and spill events extracted from the oil-spill record for the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM). This is one of the first efforts to bring together such complete data sets for modeling effects on so broad a geographic and temporal scale. Such information is valuable in determining the reasonableness and appropriateness of model use for impact analysis of future exploration, development, and production activities.

Abstract:

Effective environmental regulations are crucial for biodiversity preservation and fostering innovation to mitigate environmental damage. The aim of this research is to set the groundwork for further research into the substantial role of environmental regulatory policies in promoting pro-environmental innovation. This research employs a meta-analysis approach, focusing on correlational studies published between 2001 and 2021 in English. Inclusion criteria for data selection consisted of articles addressing environmental regulations and their implementation. Correlation analyses were conducted using JASP software. The findings indicate a significant relationship between environmental regulations and their implementation, with a correlation coefficient of 0.28. With a 95% confidence interval, the estimated true score range lies between 0.14 and 0.41. Bias testing was performed using the trim and fill method, and no evidence of publication bias was found, supporting the validity of the meta-analysis results. Thus, it can be concluded that environmental regulations play a significant role in encouraging pro-environmental innovation and urging governments in each country to provide certainty about their pro-environmental policies.

Abstract:

Colostrum is a natural product, issued by both mammals and humans in the first week of lactation. Among different species, donkey colostrum is considered to have, in addition to a valuable composition in nutrients and immune factors, an outstanding similitude with human colostrum. In this context, and taking into account the scarcity of available data concerning the interaction between climate factors and colostrum quality, a trial was conducted aiming to identify the possible influence of environmental factors on donkey colostrum nutritional traits. A stock of 175 jennies from 7 farms located in Cluj and Sălaj Counties was analyzed over a 7-day postpartum period. During the experimental period, the daily temperature, humidity, and wind velocity data were collected. Strong positive correlations are reported between the studied colostrum nutritional traits (fat, protein and lactose). Testing the impact of some environmental parameters upon nutritional content of donkey colostrum indicated three factors that have an influence on the nutritional quality of donkey milk colostrum, labelled as: colostrum nutritional traits, environmental air traits and some colostrum nutritional traits, and climatic traits and some colostrum nutritional traits.

Abstract:

Electric vehicles are a leading candidate in the clean energy market. This paper aims to analyse the feasibility of the deployment of electric buses (EB) based on the existing bus routes in Brunei, by the use of life cycle cost analysis and the analysis of the parameters that influence the overall life cycle cost. The findings from the study revealed that EB are significantly more expensive than diesel buses (DB), with their acquisition and maintenance costs contributing substantially to their overall life cycle cost. In order to promote EB deployment, the government needs to look simultaneously into providing subsidies for EB and imposing taxes on DB, the provision of charging infrastructure, and ensuring maintenance capability, as well as increasing the current subsidised diesel price. It was also shown that increasing the cost of diesel to the average US diesel price of USD$3.101/L, an initial subsidy of USD$67,586 towards the purchase of EB, and a tax of USD$67,586 for the purchase of DB would allow EB to compete in the market, with the amount of tax and subsidy being gradually reducible over time, as EB and battery technology becomes more mature. From an environmental perspective, the emissions from EB come out higher than the emissions from DB. The efficiency of electric power generation needs to be enhanced, and renewable energy sources and the adoption of carbon capture technology need to be explored in order to exploit the full benefit of EB and ensure more environmentally sustainable bus operation.
