Abstract:
ABSTRACTThis study explores the evolution of the Green Grants program, run by Brazil’s Ministry of Environment, as a means for developing the concept of bureaucratic activism. When the Workers’ Party first took office in 2003, many social movement actors joined the government, especially in that agency. After 2007, however, most of these activists left the government. At the same time, the ministry substituted thousands of temporary employees for permanent civil servants. Surprisingly, this study finds that these public employees carried forward the environmentalist cause, even when this required contesting the priorities of superiors. Examining their attitudes and practices leads to a definition of activism as the proactive pursuit of opportunities to defend contentious causes. The case study helps to develop this concept and to demonstrate that workers inside bureaucracies can engage in activist behavior. It also explores the effects of bureaucratic activism on environmental policymaking in Brazil.

Abstract:
The separation between an ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ of organizational politics has become untenable in a rapidly changing political landscape, where people engage in environmental activism in many different domains. To understand contemporary environmental activism, we situate ourselves empirically within an energy utility, Ordalia [pseudonym], a large corporation active across Europe and heavily criticized by external activists for its carbon emitting operations. By merging Rancière’s method of equality and notion of ‘partaking’ with literature on prefiguration in social movements, we analyse everyday green actions pursued by Ordalia’s employees, which we conceptualize as ‘prefigurative partaking’. By focusing on six characterizing themes of prefigurative partaking – aspirational, individual, professional, critical, loyal and communal – we have found that employee activism is incremental, horizontal and boundaryless. We discuss these findings in relation to recent calls for more fruitful exchanges between social movement theory and organization studies, arguing that Rancière’s conceptualization of politics can help us study actions that span civil society and business. This complements and expands our understanding of environmental activism as a dispersed set of actions that can take place anywhere, and hence also at work.

Abstract:
The climate crisis has become not only serious but urgent problem too. A lot of years have been wasted in palliative measures that have not solved the problems. And those wasted years have closed the space to search for solutions inside the framework of some kind of Green capitalism. At the present time, solutions to the climate crisis are still possible, but they will require drastic, even systematic measures. This article analyzes the role of capitalism in creating and deepening climate crisis. Capitalism is not only a type of economy but a type of society. It has achieved hegemony in the field of ideas and values, socializing people and internalizing its values among the losers of the system, as well as among its beneficiaries. Due to this, overcoming capitalism is not an easy or simple task. However, as it is argued in the article, the only humane alternative to overcome climate crisis is to overcome capitalism as a type of economy and a type of society.

Abstract:
Tandem catalysis and olefin metathesis are powerful tools in the development of sustainable synthetic practices. This Award Lecture describes our advances in designing new tandem metathesis-hydrogenation methodologies for the synthesis of “designer materials” and Ru-pseudohalide metathesis catalysts that amplify opportunities for tuning catalyst activity, selectivity, and lifetime. Also discussed is the operation of a previously unrecognized oligomerization-backbiting pathway in ring-closing metathesis of conformationally flexible α,ω-dienes, which has important implications for the sustainable synthesis of medium and large rings.Key words: tandem catalysis, green chemistry, olefin metathesis, ring-closing metathesis, mechanism.

Abstract:
Nanoporous TiO2 anatase was environment-friendly prepared using coffee husk extract (CHE) as bio-template instead of hazardous chemicals and solvents and ultrasonic waves. Caffeine and caffeic acid were found to be the main compounds in CHE to modify the morphology of TiO2. The properties of as-prepared titanium dioxide particles were determined by different characterization techniques. The results demonstrate the formation of a meso/macro-porous channel consisting of small TiO2 particles (8–10 nm). The as prepared green nanoparticles exhibited improved photocatalytic activity for the degradation of organic water pollutants with good recyclability. The enhancement in efficiency of green nanoporous TiO2 can be attributed to higher surface area and the presence of more active adsorption sites inside the pores. The current research provides for a low cost, safe, and eco-friendly way to produce efficient photocatalysts for remediation of polluted water.

Abstract:
The role of the built environment in improving public health through fostering physical activity has come under increased scrutiny in recent years. This study investigates relationships between walking activity and the configuration of green spaces in Greater London. Pedestrian activity for N = 54,910 walking trip stages is gathered through the London Travel Demand Survey (LTDS), with routes between origin and destination mapped onto the street network from the Integrated Transport Network of Ordnance Survey. Green spaces were extracted from UKMap and agglomerated to form London’s hundreds of parks. Regressions of pedestrian activity on park configuration, controlling for built environment metrics, revealed that catchments around smaller parks have more walking trips. Irregularity of park shape has the opposite effect. Park density, measured as number of parks inside a catchment, is insignificant in regression. Parks adjacent to retail areas were associated with pronounced increases in walking. The study contributes to landscape, urban management, environmental policy and urban planning and design literature. The evidence provides implications for performance-oriented policy and design decisions that configure a city’s green spaces to improve citizens’ public health through enhancing walkability.

Abstract:
TiO2 and Cu-doped TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) with totally extraordinary substance of Cu by exploitation hydrothermal method. The part immaculateness, morphology, molecule estimate, optical properties, and elemental composition of as-incorporated Cu-doped TiO2 NPs were investigated by numerous systematic methods. The XRD designs unveiled Cu-doped TiO2 NPs inside the part unadulterated anatase phase. The plane of (101) XRD and XPS results show the lucky doping of Cu2+ inside the TiO2 lattice. The optical edges of Cu-doped TiO2 demonstrated a transparent light absorption in visible region that assumes an essential part inside the photocatalytic action underneath characteristic daylight. Certain Cu2+ content shows least PL intensity that backings the decrease in recombination rate of charge species. In addition, to get a handle on photocatalytic action, we have tried Cu-doped TiO2 for the degradation of Malachite Green (MG) under visible light. A large portion of 85% degradation was found for Cu-doped TiO2 (1.71 wt.%) underneath daylight minimum of 180 min, severally, that is past that of TiO2 (53%). Also, the degradation of the MG was affirmed by measurement of the chemical oxygen demand of the photodegraded solution. These outcomes demonstrates that the Cu-doped TiO2 NPs are extremely productive for the photodegration of the MG.

Abstract:
Hysing & Olsson published a paper in 2011 revealing that 23% of all Swedish municipalities had a green inside activists (a form of public official) residing within them. Our paper aims to highlight the activity of this specific brand of public officials which many know little about. Considering recent events, particularly Greta Thunberg’s strike and the Swedish public official petition in the government office, this study reused Hysing and Olsson’s (2011) questionnaire survey to examine the local environmental office in Örebro municipality to identify the presence of green inside activists. In comparison to Hysing & Olssons study results, no green inside activists were identified nor could their activity be reviewed. The study requires further research concerning the eventual presence of other bureaucratic archetypes.

Abstract:
Offentliga upphandlingar utgör idag cirka 14% av Europas totala BNP och på både nationell och internationell nivå lyfts de som ett föredöme och viktig åtgärd för att ändra våra ohållbara produktions- och konsumtionsmönster. Detta då de kan fungera som ett effektivt verktyg för att uppnå samhälleliga hållbarhetsmål. Denna studie undersökte hur offentliga tjänstemän ser på sin roll att implementera hållbarhet i offentliga upphandlingar i form av innovation, cirkularitet och skarpare miljökrav. Genom kvalitativa intervjuer med tjänstemän som alla var aktiva inom upphandling påvisades faktorer vilka tillsammans ligger till grund för individens möjlighet att implementera hållbarhet i upphandlingsprocessen och ställa relevanta miljökrav. Resultatet visade att individen spelar en nyckelroll för hållbara upphandlingar och att kunskap, engagemang och individdrivna initiativ är en förutsättning för förändring. Dessa faktorer på individnivå behöver även understödjas av externa faktorer såsom organisatoriskt stöd, tillgängliga resurser och möjliggörande regler genom samordning och standardisering för genomförandet av hållbara upphandlingar.
Today public procurements accounts for about 14% of Europe ́s total GDP and at both the national and international level they are highlighted as a role model and important measure to change our unsustainable production and consumption patterns. This because they can function as an effective tool for achieving societal sustainability goals. This study examined how public officials view their role in implementing sustainability in public procurement through innovation, circularity, and stricter environmental requirements. Through qualitative interviews with officials who were all active in procurement factors were identified which together form the basis for the individual ́s ability to implement sustainability in the process and set relevant environmental requirements. The results showed that the individual plays a key role in sustainable procurement and that knowledge, commitment and individual-driven initiatives are a prerequisite for change. Factors at the individual level also need to be supported by external factors such as organizational support, available resources and enabling rules through coordination and standardization for the implementation of sustainable procurement.

Abstract:
It might seem reasonable to take the view that the study of ancient Greek political behaviour could plausibly focus upon exchanges that went on inside the polis: after all, the word ‘politics’ derives from the Greek politika (‘polis affairs’). However, the concerns of ancient Greek polis-communities were not merely introspective: communities (regardless of size or military clout) were obliged to face the consequences of the decisions and activity of other communities. Human representatives of city-states performed necessary interactions with outsiders: they fought as soldiers, and staked political or ideological claims as ambassadors and politicians. On their return to their home communities, these individuals proclaimed to their audiences the significance of their activity away from home. Furthermore, the overlaps in social and cultural structure of different Greek city-states, as well as the existence of shared modes of decision-making, might lead us to anticipate the value of trans-community forms of political activity. At the heart of this question, therefore, is an overall debate about the degree of ‘unity’ of Greek political institutions and behaviour, a debate explored in this chapter with particular reference to the contested transferability of the decree (psephisma) in Greek inter-state politics of the fourth century.

Abstract:
The soil is considered to be one of the most important substances for the existence of the biotic community. The quality of the soil is continually degrading due to the continuous exploitation of human activity. The superiority of a soil is rated on the basis of its chemical and physical characteristics. The contaminants added to the soil mainly because of human activity change the usual function and ecological properties and cause of negative impacts on agricultural productivity and soil health. The property of the soil is potentially affected by urban wastes, industrial wastes, sewage water, mining wastes, oil, radioactive wastes, deforestation, and massive use of fertilizers and pesticides. Heavy metal contamination of the soil is a vital environmental problem because it is the cause of adverse effects on the biological community through the contamination of the food chain. A continuous exposure of municipal solid waste (MSW) in the landfill sites causes leachate formation; this is percolated inside the soil leading to the change in properties.
