AbstractThomas Pogge's Global Resources Dividend relies on a flat tax on the use of natural resources to fund the eradication of world poverty. Hillel Steiner's Global Fund taxes the full rental value of owned natural resources and distributes the proceeds equally. The paper compares the Dividend and the Fund and defends the Global Share, a novel proposal that taxes either use or ownership, does so (when possible) progressively, and distributes the revenue according to a prioritarian rather than a sufficientarian or egalitarian principle.

In the debate on global justice, proposals to tax natural resources in order to reduce global poverty and fund other worthwhile objectives have attracted scholarly attention and controversy. In this article, I argue that this debate can be advanced by more clearly focusing on natural resource rents rather than resources themselves or the undifferentiated stream of benefits they generate. I argue that taxes on natural resource rents cannot be reasonably rejected by either side in this debate, and that the arguments typically used to resist distributive claims to natural resources either have no relevance when it comes to rents, or actually support such taxes.

The article reveals the integration of domestic banks into the global financial system. An urgent issue today is the integration of the activities of domestic commercial banks into the global financial system, which is characterized by globalization processes. Globalization is a process of global economic, political and cultural integration, the main characteristics of which are the world division of labor, global migration of monetary, human and productive resources, standardization of legislation, economic and technological processes, as well as the convergence of cultures of different countries. The economic aspects of globalization are characterized by free trade, free movement of capital, reduction of taxes on the profits of enterprises, ease of movement of industries between different states in order to reduce the costs of labor and natural resources.

Tourism involves travel, and travelling is inherently dependent on carbon-based fuel. The low cost of carbon fuels resulted in massive expansions of global tourism with many countries now depending on tourism exports for their national economies. However, oil is a finite resource and tourism’s dependence on it creates major vulnerabilities. It is also increasingly recognised that to combat man-made global climate change it is essential to put a price on carbon, for example through carbon taxes or Emissions Trading Schemes. The implications of a diminishing availability of cheap carbon-based fuel are extremely complex and far reaching, both for society as a whole and for tourism.

The development of technologies entails the deterioration of both the global environmental situation and at the regional level. The solution of environmental issues is directly related to the use of natural resources, as well as the utilization of the economic system, including through the transformation of waste into raw materials for energy production, various materials, reduction of toxic emissions into the air, water, biodiversity, etc. The main economic instruments of environmental protection and improvement of the ecological situation, which are used in world practice for these purposes, are analyzed. Among them are special taxes, pledge-refundable schemes and expanded business responsibility. The analysis of economic instruments of state regulation of nature management and sources of funding for environmental measures in Ukraine suggests that it needs to be revised and systematized with a scientifically sound definition of the parameters of mandatory payments in favour of the state and the proportions of natural distribution resource payments between the parts of the budget system to prevent the scattering of financial resources and their targeted use to finance environmental protection programs and improve the environmental situation in Ukraine. The expediency of strengthening the integration of such payments into the structure of existing taxes on goods (excise tax on gasoline), while maintaining environmental incentives, in particular, coordination with the taxation of corporate profits, for example, in the form of a reduction factor in the case of their include cost. In this case, the environmental component of taxation should correspond to the scale of environmental damage and is the basis of the mechanism for calculating tax payments or other economic incentives. This can be ensured by deepening the differentiation of tax rates depending on the damage to the environment, as well as the conditions of use of natural resources, the availability of certification of nature management enterprises according to ISO 14000 standard.

The author outlines the role of environmental or “green” taxes that are less burdensome for the economy than taxes on salaries or income taxes, with the description of the best examples of the 1990s (Sweden, the Netherlands). The importance of Ex'tax and smart approach to the tax shift, which creates incentives for saving natural resources and outputting materials in a closed loop, are singled out. Reduction of taxes for labor leads to employment increase. Business models, in their turn, will focus on the wise use of resources, that is, they will become circularly oriented. It is investigated that the lowest taxes were introduced in Ireland, Romania, Cyprus, Poland. The highest taxes were in Austria, Belgium, and Sweden in 2016. Environmental taxes are the lowest in Luxembourg, Ireland, Germany and the Czech Republic, and the highest ones are in Denmark and Greece. It is proved that with the help of “tax shift” and mechanisms of circular economy an inclusive society is formed. According to the results of the analysis, it is possible to identify the countries in which this “tax shift” has already taken place. They are Lithuania, Romania, Slovenia and the United Kingdom. That is, from 2006 to 2016, these countries offer inclusive and circular business models that become the rule for their economy. After all, the corresponding tax shift is a key element for the disclosure of the social force of the circular economy. The concept of Cradle to Cradle is described in the article. It offers a truly viable alternative to the “development or conservation” dilemma, since it can contribute to the improvement of the natural ecosystem and at the same time promotes human social justice, that is, it forms an inclusive society in a global dimension. The circular production system is based on this concept. There are 3 basic benchmarks for the circular economy 2.0: inclusiveness of the population; formation of human value; the well-being of people. Inclusive circular models are outlined using Pay-As-They-Need, Pay-As-They-Grow, Paid-As-They-Care.

Sustainable development is attracting great attention from economists lately looking at it as a way to minimize capital depletion and to make it accessible to the global present and future population. The concept of sustainable development embraces the importance of sustaining the world's resources while trying to harmonize the relationship between humans' behavior and activities and the natural environment. This entitles changing the ways and methods of how producers develop and use productive technologies; how and what goods and services consumers demand; and how governments, local authorities, NGOs and any other relevant players plan and act in the economy. Energy is a factor that contributes to making our world habitable. It is deemed one of the most important factors of life on earth. In particular, the world's energy use is made up of 80% of fossil fuels, or what is known as non-renewable energies. Fossil fuels are coal, petroleum, and natural gas. As a result, the world is pretty much non-renewable energy-dependent and unsustainable. Non-renewable energy sources, are resources hoped to be gained from wars, conflicts, and power disputes. In addition to conflicts, the problem that dominates the public discussion on non-renewable energy is climate change. Inflation is another con of non-renewable energy dependence: surging energy costs have boosted inflation, especially in Europe, after fossil-fuel prices nearly doubled in 2021, and as a consequence of the Russian Ukrainian conflict, oil prices hit a 14-year high, Global oil prices have spiked about 60% since the start of 2022, raising concerns about global economic growth and stagflation.

Transfer pricing basically aims to measure company performance and has become a media to manipulate taxes, resulting in state revenue, which results in state stability, national problems and global challenges. This research method is qualitative with the transfer pricing case study approach. The data is secondary and the process of collecting data from reliable online sources. The analysis technique uses data reduction, data display and verification. The results explain that the factors of manipulation of transfer pricing are the presence of special company relationships, bonus systems and mechanisms, acquisition of unnatural profits, foreign ownership and political cost. The process of handling is reforming taxation, which includes natural resources, organizations, business processes, data, information technology and regulation. The role of behavioral accounting is to create professionalism and responsibility with the principles of fairness and custom of business, value chain analysis, activity based costing and just in time philosophy. Keywords: Transfer Pricing; Tax; Behavioral Accounting; Global Challenges.

Most of the local communities living around the forest fulfil their daily needs, depending on the forest resources, but the government and even global policy have enacted the forest as a protected area or national park. The purpose of this research is to understand and explain the principles of customary law concerning the natural resources that exist in the national park, and to determine the effectiveness of customary law in protecting these natural resources. The research method applied to explore community values and attitudes is socio-legal. The research revealed society's habits through exploration, and norms and the rule of law are embraced. Some principles of customary law on natural resources include palia (taboo) and ombo (prohibition) pertinent to natural resource conservation. Both of these principles are adhered to and have been hereditary. The values on utilising natural resources are still complied with (effective), although state law takes a formal approach for any infringement surrounding the national park. However, customary law principles still always need to be a source for environmental or related law.

In this thesis I examine the problem of climate change in the light of a theory of justice for natural resources. I discuss the implications of this theory regarding how to deal with climate change fairly, and consider the relevance of historical injustices in natural resource use to our current attempts to achieve climate justice. In presenting this account, I discuss a number of arguments in the climate justice literature that draw on a principle of equal shares for certain natural resources - the atmosphere, for example, or resources that can be conceptualised in terms of ecological space. I argue that though natural resources are appropriate objects of egalitarian distribution, justice does not entitle individuals to equal shares of these resources. In place of the principle of equal shares, I defend a contractualist justification of natural resource rights; according to which these rights should be allocated to enable all human beings to satisfy their basic needs as members of self-determining political communities. Resources have not been used justly in the past, given that the history of our world is one of colonialism, the resource curse, and the dispossession of indigenous peoples. To deal with climate change fairly, I argue that we must seek to ensure that individuals and collectives can exercise adequate control over what happens to the world's natural resources in the future - both within their territory and further afield. I use this alternative conception of natural resource justice to consider the question of where to set the ceiling on future greenhouse gas emissions, how to share the resulting emissions budget, and how to understand historical accountability in the face of unavoided climate impacts.

The global energy system is dominated by the use of fossil fuels. This system suffers from several problems, such as different environmental issues, while the long-term energy security is sometimes questioned. As an alternative to this situation, a transition to a global energy system based on renewable energy technologies, to a large extent solar and wind energy, is commonly proposed. Constructing the technology needed for such a transition requires resources and how fast this could happen is somewhat disputed. This thesis explores methods to assess the potential constraints for realizing such a transition by looking at potential technology growth rates and outlooks of production of the required natural resources. The thesis is based on three papers presenting case studies that look at growth rates of wind energy as well as future production outlooks of lithium and phosphate rock. Using different types of growth patterns reaching proposed installed capacities of wind power, annual commissioning requirements are investigated, taking account for the limited life expectancy oftechnology. Potential outlooks of mineral production are explored using resource constrained curve-fitting models on global lithium production. A more disaggregated model looking at individual countries are used on phosphate rock production to investigate new perspectives on production outlooks. It is concluded that the growth rates of individual energy technologies affect the resource requirements and prospective constraints on energy transitions. Resource constrained modelling of resource production can provide spans of potential outlooks for future production of resources required for anenergy transition. A higher disaggregation of the modelling can provide new perspectives of potential constraints on future production. These aspects should be further investigated when proposing alternative future energy systems.

The objective of the study was to geographically model the effects of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) influence on remotely sensed global nutrient distribution patterns. The result was a system of digital maps communicating the impact of ENSO on the physical and biological components of the ocean. These maps compare modeled phytoplankton biomass distribution over the ENSO extremes. Chlorophyll a, Aerosol Optical Thickness, and Sea Surface Temperature data, all obtained from remotely sensed sources, were used to develop these predictions. Areas of iron deposition and phytoplankton presence (chlorophyll a < 0.1 mg 1-1) were combined with nutrient distributions (based on the temperature-nutrient relationship) to create a sixteen-category composite phytoplankton ecological factor distribution map for each month in the study. The months included in the study were January, February, March of 1998, an El Niño year, and January, February, March of 1999, a La Niña year. Finally, an educational multimedia tool (CD-ROM) was created based on the research in the study for use in grades 7-16 classrooms. The tool was designed and tested to utilize Geographic Information Systems and the Internet to apply inquiry-based learning to science education.

At a meeting of worl leaders at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, it was recognized that because of the tremendous increase in the size of the global populations (which now is estimated to exceed six billion), there were concerns that global biodiversity was at risk if insufficient land were not put aside for conservation within formal Protected Areas. The primary aim of this study was to compare investment in Protected Areas in relation to socio-economic conditions at global and regional levels.

Globally, ecosystems are experiencing increasing pressure from anthropogenic stressors. Human population growth is responsible for overexploitation of natural resources, pollution, land alteration and climate change. A change in landscape connectivity, may not only reduce the habitable space for species, but may also affect their movement and population dynamics. These changes potentially reduce the resilience of ecosystems against other stressors. Reserves are a common method to protect areas from overexploitation and habitat destruction and help to safeguard ecosystem functioning. Reserve size, location and configuration influence the effect of reserves and the optimal design of protected areas is a field of ongoing research. Connectivity is a guiding principle in protected area planning but the explicit incorporation of connections remains a challenge. Reasons can be found in the scarcity of quantitative data on connectivity and a lack of agreement on connectivity measures. Currently, connections in marine landscapes are less studied than on land. The aim of this thesis was to examine the relationship between connectivity and ecosystem processes, and to test methods for modelling and incorporating quantitative data on connectivity in the design of marine protected areas.

Thesis (MA (Political Science. International Studies)()--University of Stellenbosch, 2009.
Many African countries present the observer with a paradox: though richly endowed with mineral wealth, these countries are among the least-developed in the world. Mineral resources have historically been an important source of revenue for the state and one finds great diversity in the strategies that states have employed to access this wealth. These strategies range from direct participation in mining activity by means of state-owned companies to more indirect methods such as taxes levied on mining activity, with approaches varying not only among states, but also over time as historically certain strategies with regard to state involvement in mining have come to predominate. This study develops a typology of public/private sector configurations in the mining sector. The typology consists of three models, a direct participation, market-led and sustainability model. This typology serves as an analytical tool to investigate the impact of mining codes on sustainable development. The study concludes that in many cases the investment-oriented mining code reform undertaken by African states in the 1980s and 1990s has had a negative impact through the social and environmental costs associated with mining. Increasing recognition of these costs has resulted in the emergence of a sustainability model.

Among the number of global problems related to the processes of economic development, to the most critical and major problems are included depletion of natural resources, pollution and rapid population growth. Nowadays the major trend of world development is globalization of international economic relations, and therefore one of the distinctive features of the world economy is its transnationalization. One of the key subjects of global transformation of the world economic field became transnational corporations, which significantly affect violation of ecosystems of various countries, due to the relocation of harmful manufactures into their territory [3].

The paper applied a content analysis method to examine how myths and legends have been employed by the promotional organization in portraying New Zealand on the official tourism website. The assessment of the website uncovered six main legends which have been presented in the promotion of New Zealand to potential tourists. These traditional tales have been incorporated into the website chiefly as part of Maori heritage attributes in which purakau (the Maori term for legends) represents among crucial aspects in understanding their worldviews and cultural identities. Legends narrating fishing voyages involving demi gods offers a mythological explanation of the origin of the geological formation of islands of New Zealand were presented more than once on the website. Among the legends presented to readers on the websites encompass stories of Tane Mahuta, which depicts the tale of the sky father, the earth mother, and the creation of the world of light that humans live in today. Another unique legend, Paikea the whale rider, is featured as part of the description of a whale-watching attraction in Kaikoura, Christchurch. The overall analysis uncovered that legendary tales are incorporated into the website as the part historical origin of Maori people and in the promotion of several tourist attractions in New Zealand. From a tourism perspective, the representation of these tales enhances the appeal of destinations and make them stand out to visitors. The inclusion of the purakau offers tourists a deeper understanding of the cultural heritage of this country. Furthermore, Maori worldviews on the creation of the universe and formation of the natural environment are transpired. It is noticeable through these legends that Maori people strongly respect their ancestors and highly appreciated natural resources. Finally, the emphasis on environmental conservation and sustainability as ingrained in the tales further supported the overall promotional tagline of 100% Pure New Zealand and the inclusion of Tiaki Promise a commitment to care for New Zealand, for now, and for future generations on the official tourism website.

Abstract The growth of USA shale oil and gas production over the last decade has been nothing short of phenomenal. In 2012 shale gas comprised 39% of US natural gas output, and by 2040, nearly 80% of total gas production is anticipated to come from unconventional resources. In April 2021, in the USA alone, gas production from major unconventional plays reached 83.0 BCFD and oil production was 7.6 MMBD. Driven by rising gas demand and advances in geosciences, drilling and completion technology (hydraulically fractured horizontal wells), unconventional plays have become eminent in the global energy supply, both for value and volume. The development of unconventional resources in North America was aided by governmental positive policies and taxes preferences, the readily available infrastructure, a vast service sector, advanced technologies and expertise, and general understanding of sweet spots due to numerous well penetrations. Following the above accomplishments: exploration, development, and production success in North America, particularly in the USA unconventional basins, several Majors and Independents have been trying to expand the opportunities outside of North America and other countries such as UAE, Oman and Saudi Arabia have been booking significant unconventional resources. For these reasons, the USA and Canada represent the ‘reference benchmark’ by which countries similarly endowed with shale resources can be evaluated. Abu Dhabi recently announced, in 2019 and 2020, discoveries of 160 TCF of unconventional gas, an estimated 22 billion STB of recoverable unconventional oil resources, both located onshore. These finds have pushed the UAE to the sixth position globally in terms of hydrocarbon reserves, from seventh, according to data listed by the US Energy Information Administration (EIA). Developing these resources are an integral part of ADNOC 2030 strategy of "Monetize our hydrocarbon resources" and becoming gas self-sufficient by 2030. North America achievements in unconventional resources development has triggered other countries to evaluate their unconventional resources. This has come with mixed results: failures in Ukraine, Poland and successes in Argentina. UAE has world class unconventional resource base which development raises the challenges of what practices worth replicating (PWR) need to be adopted by UAE and in turn ADNOC. Some lessons learned, thus practices worth replicating (PWR) can be tailored and adopted from the success of unconventional resources development in North America, will be described in this paper as a benchmark for progressing unconventional resources development in UAE.

Abstract The Energy Transition is redefining how energy is produced, consumed, and viewed. Many consumers today are requiring a more sustainable method of energy generation as a means of combatting climate change, and nations have pledged to take steps to control climate emissions. Newly developed methods of energy generation and solutions to decarbonize industrial zones, are essential to achieving carbon reduction commitments, and maintain the quality of life expected in today's world. The company has committed to continue to develop and improve its Green by Design™ products to further reduce customer CO2 emissions. Investing the time and resources to develop equipment used in the injection and storage of CO2 in depleted subsea reservoirs, is a natural fit for most companies with subsea expertise. Having a cost-effective, safe and sustainable plan to transport, inject, store, and monitor CO2 has become the latest challenge facing the offshore industry, but as carbon taxes are implemented around the globe, the economic benefits outweigh the costs. Industry needs to find solutions to fulfill the worlds desire to inject and store CO2. The development of partnerships/collaborations with logistics and storage development companies to create a plan to address the loading, transportation, injection, storage, and remote monitoring of CO2 is fundamental to enhancing the scale needed to address a global problem. This ‘shore to seabed’ solution allows industrial CO2 producers to cost-effectively reduce their carbon footprint. This coupled with field-proven wellhead and compact tree systems along with patented, carbon footprint reducing technology, can allow CO2 storage operators to economically store CO2 offshore long-term. Digital monitoring around the injection site, which is enabled by a move towards a full electric field further enables optimization and proactive maintenance.

For decades states have been accepting and introducing into their legal systems different tax solutions and introducing them into legal systems with the aim of integrating the concept of sustainable development. The corrective role of ecological taxes can be examined in two different ways. Observed from the economic perspective, the most important role of these taxes is to internalize external expenses. From the environmental perspective, these taxes play a stimulative role aiming to continuously promote a rational approach to the use of limited natural resources. The fiscal role of environmental taxes should seem significant only to the extent that it provides additional resources for covering public expenses related to the protection of environment.

Under the background of "zero growth" of land use, there are many researches and explorations on the stock renewal of central urban areas in traditional planning. However, in recent years, the rural-led stock land use planning has attracted more and more attention with the development of land space planning. Village area is the basic unit of rural social and economic activities in China. The rational play of land use function in village area has important theoretical and practical significance for the realization of the multi-objective of rural revitalization under ecological civilization. Department of natural resources has issued the work pilot implementation of global land comprehensive improvement notice, rural red line "no increase of the aggregate land for construction purposes, ecological protection not breakthrough", so without any increase in construction land index on the basis of further promote rural land use composite function, is to solve the rural economy development and the important direction of rural land supply contradictions. This paper firstly makes a qualitative theoretical study on the compound mechanism of land use function in villages, and then takes 4 villages in southern Jiangsu province as examples to elaborate the compound mechanism of land use function in the development process. The results show that: (1) land use function changes due to its type and land use mode, and is indirectly influenced by natural resource endowment, social and economic conditions, regional policies, etc., the compound trend of land use function in different types of villages is often different; The land use function of the four villages in the town is as follows: the production function is transformed into the production-ecological composite function, and the living function is transformed into the production-life composite function. (3) summarize the planning of the basic ideas and function of the complex process, refine the agricultural land, unused land and construction land has the implementation of the functional complex strategy.

As a result of globalisation, destination marketing has become essential as cities, states, regions and countries compete with one another to attract huge investment and tourists (Baker & Cameron, 2008). In order for these destinations to compete effectively, it is essential to explore how natural disasters may have impacted the destination. Basic utilities such as water resources could have been impacted by natural disasters. To date, little is known on the impact of natural disasters on the water supply which may directly and indirectly affect the image of a destination. Information on the characteristics of natural disasters, namely floods and drought, (i.e., the time duration, location and the severity) based on the individual destination are also not known. Hence, the main objective of this study is to understand the economic and socio-economic aspects of natural disasters on water supply. To fulfill the research gap, a qualitative study was performed. Specifically, two focus group discussions were executed on household representatives of the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur in regard to natural disasters like floods and droughts. Based on the research findings, there is no issue of water supply associated with the flood crisis. However, there are mix opinions on the correlation of droughts and the water supply, with majority believing that there is no correlation between droughts and water supply in the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur. The findings of this qualitative study may serve as the foundation for a quantitative study (i.e., developing sets of questionnaires), and may contribute for policymakers and water utility providers in comprehending the issues and taking precautions prior to the occurrence of natural disasters.

Abstract Notwithstanding the global thrust to develop renewable sources of energy, fossil fuels, coal, crude oil and natural gas are expected to play a significant role in meeting the world's energy needs for decades to come. Natural gas with the highest hydrogen concentration among the fossil fuels is the preferred fossil fuel from an environmental impact standpoint. Trinidad and Tobago, like the rest of the world, is taking its petroleum exploration activities into deep water, its onshore and continental shelf provinces being fully explored. The development of petroleum reservoirs in deep water has many challenges. This paper explores the unique challenges posed by developing deep water gas fields with a focus on the options available for monetising the natural gas produced from these fields. The options for getting gas to market are well known and include pipelines, liquefied natural gas (LNG), compressed natural gas (CNG), gas to solid petrochemicals (GTS), gas to liquids (GTL) and gas to wire (GTW). Most of these options are operating in Trinidad and Tobago. The paper evaluates the financial outcomes from applying the pipeline, LNG and CNG options, either offshore or onshore, for gas extracted from deep water fields across a range of reserve levels and well productivities. It aims to establish criteria for deciding which means of monetisation is preferred. The reserve and productivity ranges reflect typical values encountered in the deep water provinces in Latin America, North America and Africa. These provinces account for 85% of all the deep water fields and 74 % the deep water reserves which have been discovered worldwide. Because the paper focuses on the monetisation of natural gas, its findings will be applicable to any successful deep water exploration in Trinidad and Tobago because all situations, even the discovery of oil, will require that the associated gas be handled. The handling of gas has the potential of being on the critical path in deciding on the development of deep water fields in Trinidad and Tobago.

Tree species are characterized by their perennial growth habit, woody morphology, long juvenile period phase, mostly outcrossing behaviour, highly heterozygosity genetic makeup, and relatively high genetic diversity. The economically important trees have been an integral part of the human life system due to their provision of timber, fruit, fodder, and medicinal and/or health benefits. Despite its widespread application in agriculture, industrial and medicinal values, the molecular aspects of key economic traits of many tree species remain largely unexplored. Over the past two decades, research on forest tree genomics has generally lagged behind that of other agronomic crops. Genomic research on trees is motivated by the need to support genetic improvement programmes mostly for food trees and timber, and develop diagnostic tools to assist in recommendation for optimum conservation, restoration and management of natural populations. Research on long-lived woody perennials is extending our molecular knowledge and understanding of complex life histories and adaptations to the environment, enriching a field that has traditionally drawn its biological inference from a few short-lived herbaceous species. These concerns have fostered research aimed at deciphering the genomic basis of complex traits that are related to the adaptive value of trees. This review summarizes the highlights of tree genomics and offers some priorities for accelerating progress in the next decade.

Now the whole life of a person has switched to online mode. These changes also affected the education system. This means the need to introduce new technologies into the educational process. Books, manuals, printed publications are being replaced by electronic educational resources. Providing up-to-date, verified information to students has always been and remains one of the most important functions of the teacher. Unfortunately, with the transition of training to the online mode, the teacher cannot use his literature when conducting classes. In this regard, there is a need to use electronic resources. On the one hand, the development of the global network implies the presence of a large number of a wide variety of sites, which cannot but be a positive aspect, because both the teacher and the student can independently choose a resource that will be most understandable. But on the other hand, the variety of Internet resources implies the presence of unverified, false information, which can negatively affect the quality of education. That is why it is necessary to analyze new information systems. The problem is the presence of a large number of information technologies and resources used in education. Purpose. The goal is to conduct a comparative analysis of educational electronic publications and resources most often used by teachers of the natural science cycle in terms of their fullness, accessibility and use in the educational process. Method or methodology of the work. The requirements for the organization of a comprehensive examination suggest an approach that includes an examination of technical and technological, psychological, pedagogical and design-ergonomic aspects of the creation and use of educational electronic publications and resources, in our work we were based precisely on generalized research methods: 1) Technical and technological expertise (technical component of the site, its position in the network). 2) Psychological and pedagogical expertise (component by the type of educational electronic publication or resource, level of education, type and form of the educational process, assessment of the content and scenario of the informatization tool). 3) Design-ergonomic expertise (assessment of the quality of interface components of educational electronic publications and resources, their compliance with uniform ergonomic, aesthetic and health-saving requirements; assessment of the quality of interface components of educational electronic editions and resources, their compliance with uniform ergonomic, aesthetic and health-saving requirements). Results. The main sites that are frequently used by teachers of the natural science cycle of disciplines are the Russian Textbook corporation, the Enlightenment group of companies, the Binom publishing house, the Digital Age School, the practical significance of the study is determined by the high level of readiness of the results obtained, during the study it was found that it is advisable to introduce an information-electronic educational site - the Russian textbook corporation - into the pedagogical practice of the implementation of natural science subjects. The advantages of this server were established and recommendations for its use in the educational process were developed. Practical implications: the results obtained are expedient to be applied in educational institutions of the Russian Federation.

Utah is a state with diverse geology and natural resources, and this diversity extends to mineral resources that are deemed critical by the U.S. Department of the Interior. Utah’s critical mineral portfolio includes current producers, known resources, areas of past production, and undeveloped occurrences. This report, now in its second edition, summarizes the geographic and geologic distribution of critical minerals within Utah. Utah is notable for being the global leader in beryllium production; being the only domestic producer of magnesium metal; being one of only two states producing lithium (as of publication); and being a byproduct producer of tellurium, platinum, and palladium from the world-class Bingham Canyon mine, which is one of only two domestic tellurium producers. Utah has known resources of aluminum, fluorspar, germanium, gallium, indium, vanadium, and zinc, as well as past production and occurrences of many other critical minerals. In total, Utah currently produces 6 critical minerals, has known resources of 7 more, and hosts an additional 27 as past producers and/or occurrences with limited potential for economic development.

Natural Resources Canada, in partnership with the Global Earthquake Model Foundation, has prepared a public Canadian Seismic Risk Model to support disaster risk reduction efforts across industry and all levels of government, and to aid in Canada's adoption of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction. Developing this model has involved the creation of a national exposure inventory, Canadian specific fragility and vulnerability curves, and adjustment of the Canadian Seismic Hazard Model which forms the basis for the seismic provisions of the National Building Code of Canada. Using the Global Earthquake Model Foundation's OpenQuake Engine (OQ), risk modelling is completed using both deterministic and probabilistic risk calculations, under baseline and simulated retrofit conditions. Output results are available in all settled regions of Canada, at the scale of a neighbourhood or smaller. We report on expected shaking damage to buildings, financial losses, fatalities, and other impacts such as housing disruption and the generation of debris. This paper documents the technical details of the modelling approach including a description of novel datasets in use, as well as preliminary results for a magnitude 9.0 earthquake on the Cascadia megathrust and nation-wide 500 year expected probabilistic losses. These kinds of results, such as earthquake scenario impacts, loss exceedance curves, and annual average losses, provide a quantitative base of evidence for decision making at local, regional, and national levels.

Following a review of Vital Signs – indicators of ecosystem health – in the coastal parks of the Northeast Coastal and Barrier Network (NCBN), knowledge of shoreline change was ranked as the top variable for monitoring. Shoreline change is a basic element in the management of any coastal system because it contributes to the understanding of the functioning of the natural resources and to the administration of the cultural resources within the parks. Collection of information on the vectors of change relies on the establishment of a rigorous system of protocols to monitor elements of the coastal geomorphology that are guided by three basic principles: 1) all of the elements in the protocols are to be based on scientific principles; 2) the products of the monitoring must relate to issues of importance to park management; and 3) the application of the protocols must be capable of implementation at the local level within the NCBN. Changes in ocean shoreline position are recognized as interacting with many other elements of the Ocean Beach-Dune Ecosystem and are thus both driving and responding to the variety of natural and cultural factors active at the coast at a variety of temporal and spatial scales. The direction and magnitude of shoreline change can be monitored through the application of a protocol that tracks the spatial position of the neap-tide, high tide swash line under well-defined conditions of temporal sampling. Spring and fall surveys conducted in accordance with standard operating procedures will generate consistent and comparable shoreline position data sets that can be incorporated within a data matrix and subsequently analyzed for temporal and spatial variations. The Ocean Shoreline Position Monitoring Protocol will be applied to six parks in the NCBN: Assateague Island National Seashore, Cape Cod National Seashore, Fire Island National Seashore, Gateway National Recreation Area, George Washington Birthplace National Monument, and Sagamore Hill National Historic Site. Monitoring will be accomplished with a Global Positioning System (GPS )/ Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) unit capable of sub-meter horizontal accuracy that is usually mounted on an off-road vehicle and driven along the swash line. Under the guidance of a set of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) (Psuty et al., 2022), the monitoring will generate comparable data sets. The protocol will produce shoreline change metrics following the methodology of the Digital Shoreline Analysis System developed by the United States Geological Survey. Annual Data Summaries and Trend Reports will present and analyze the collected data sets. All collected data will undergo rigorous quality-assurance and quality-control procedures and will be archived at the offices of the NCBN. All monitoring products will be made available via the National Park Service’s Integrated Resource Management Applications Portal.

This rapid review synthesises the literature from academic, policy, and knowledge institution sources on the drivers of acute food insecurity and famines with a focus on key FCDO-partner countries. This review builds further on evidence already collected in other K4D helpdesk reports. The main conclusion of this rapid review is that the drivers of acute food insecurity are complex, often involving multiple and interrelated factors. The drivers for chronical food insecurity and acute food insecurity cannot be separated entirely from each other, as the evidence shows that slow-onset determinants of food insecurity could play a critical role during an event (or multiple events) that could trigger a food emergency. The literature shows that the political economy (e.g. food system governance or preparedness of institutions to disasters) and socioeconomic dynamics (e.g. shaping demand and supply of food) have become more relevant factors in any analysis on the drivers of acute food insecurity, acute malnutrition, and famine. This coincides with a shift in the literature away from global drivers of food insecurity and malnutrition toward localised dynamics on the national and sub-national level. The analytical framework of Howe (2018) that captures this complexity distinguishes pressure, hold, and self-reinforcing dynamics as key dimensions that explain potential pathways for famine. These could be political-induced, natural-induced, economical-induced, or socially induced, but most often a combination. Based on this framework and supported by the evidence from the literature, this rapid review assesses conflicts and protracted crises; climate change and pressure on natural resources; social inequalities; and economic shocks and food prices, as the key drivers of acute food insecurity and famine. Importantly, from the literature it seems clear that acute food insecurity is the result of changing vulnerabilities that link with different coping mechanisms of households and communities.

We believe the climate crisis will be resolved in cities. Today, while cities occupy only 2% of the Earth's surface, 57% of the world's population lives in cities, and by 2050, it will jump to 68% (UN, 2018). Currently, cities consume over 75% of natural resources, accumulate 50% of the global waste and emit up to 80% of greenhouse gases (Ellen MacArthur Foundation, 2017). Cities generate 70% of the global gross domestic product and are significant drivers of economic growth (UN-Habitat III, 2016). At the same time, cities sit on the frontline of natural disasters such as floods, storms and droughts (De Sherbinin et al., 2007; Major et al., 2011; Rockström et al., 2021). One of the sustainability pathways to reduce the environmental consequences of the current extract-make-dispose model (or the "linear economy") is a circular economy (CE) model. A CE is defined as "an economic system that is based on business models which replace the 'end-of-life' concept with reducing, alternatively reusing, recycling and recovering materials in production/distribution and consumption processes" (Kirchherr et al., 2017, p. 224). By redesigning production processes and thereby extending the lifespan of goods and materials, researchers suggest that CE approaches reduce waste and increase employment and resource security while sustaining business competitiveness (Korhonen et al., 2018; Niskanen et al., 2020; Stahel, 2012; Winans et al., 2017). Organizations such as the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and Circle Economy help steer businesses toward CE strategies. The CE is also a political priority in countries and municipalities globally. For instance, the CE Action Plan, launched by the European Commission in 2015 and reconfirmed in 2020, is a central pillar of the European Green Deal (European Commission, 2015, 2020). Additionally, more governments are implementing national CE strategies in China (Ellen MacArthur Foundation, 2018), Colombia (Government of the Republic of Colombia, 2019), Finland (Sitra, 2016), Sweden (Government Offices of Sweden, 2020) and the US (Metabolic, 2018, 2019), to name a few. Meanwhile, more cities worldwide are adopting CE models to achieve more resource-efficient urban management systems, thereby advancing their environmental ambitions (Petit-Boix & Leipold, 2018; Turcu & Gillie, 2020; Vanhuyse, Haddaway, et al., 2021). Cities with CE ambitions include, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Paris, Toronto, Peterborough (England) and Umeå (Sweden) (OECD, 2020a). In Europe, over 60 cities signed the European Circular Cities Declaration (2020) to harmonize the transition towards a CE in the region. In this policy brief, we provide insights into common challenges local governments face in implementing their CE plans and suggest recommendations for overcoming these. It aims to answer the question: How can the CE agenda be governed in cities? It is based on the results of the Urban Circularity Assessment Framework (UCAF) project, building on findings from 25 interviews, focus group discussions and workshops held with different stakeholder groups in Umeå, as well as research on Stockholm's urban circularity potential, including findings from 11 expert interviews (Rezaie, 2021). Our findings were complemented by the Circular Economy Lab project (Rezaie et al., 2022) and experiences from working with municipal governments in Sweden, Belgium, France and the UK, on CE and environmental and social sustainability.

Swift changes in society, related to sciences technicians’ development, technologies, by the increase of general volume of information, pull out new requirements for maintenance, structure, and quality of education. It requires teachers to diversify a tool in the direction of the increase in possibilities of the use of mobile technologies and computer systems. Lately in the world, more attention spared to the use of mobile learning, which in obedience to «Recommendations of UNESCO on the questions of a policy in the area of mobile learning» foresees the use of mobile technology, both separate and together with other by informational computer technologies. [1]. Mobile learning allows using the open informational systems, global educational networks, unique digital resources which belong to different educational establishments and co-operate with each other. The use of existent educational resources and creation of own, based on the academic resources from informative space, allows to promote the interest of students to the study of physics, to take into account the individual features, and also features of region and framework of society of the country. During the last years in Ukraine competency-based approach to the organization of studies certainly one of basic. The new Education Act addresses the key competencies that every modern person needs for a successful life, including mathematical competence; competence in natural sciences, engineering, and technology; innovation; information and communication competence [2]. This further emphasizes the importance of providing students with quality physical education and the problems associated with it. Using mobile technology in professional teaching work, the teacher has the opportunity to implement the basic principles of the competence approach in teaching physics. An analysis of the data provided in the official reports of the Ukrainian Center for Educational Quality Assessment showed that the number of students making an external independent assessment in physics and choosing a future profession related to physics has decreased significantly. This is due to the loss of students' interest in physics and the complexity of the content of the subject, as well as the increase in the amount of information that students need to absorb. In this article, we explore the possibilities of mobile technology as a means of teaching physics students and give our own experience of using mobile technology in the process of teaching physics (for example, the optics section in primary school).
