Assessing energy resilience and its greenhouse effect: A global perspective

Kangyin Dong, Xiucheng Dong, Qingzhe Jiang, Jun Zhao

Summary: The study found that increased energy resilience globally is positively associated with CO2 emissions, and the three sub-indexes of energy resilience (energy access, renewable energy, and energy efficiency) all have a positive impact on greenhouse effect. Additionally, strong energy resilience and CO2 emissions exhibit significant asymmetric and regional heterogeneous relationships, with the positive impact of energy resilience on CO2 emissions mainly stemming from the positive scale effect.

A different look at the environmental Kuznets curve from the perspective of environmental deterioration and economic policy uncertainty: evidence from fragile countries

Ahsan Anwar, Abdulkadir Barut, Fahrettin Pala, Nurcan Kilinc-Ata, Emine Kaya, Duong Thi Quynh Lien

Summary: Government policies play a critical role in addressing environmental degradation for achieving sustainable development in fragile economies. This study examines the impact of policy uncertainty on environmental degradation in the Fragile Five-Brazil, India, Indonesia, South Africa, and Turkey. Using data from 1996 to 2019, a Panel Quantile Regression analysis is conducted. The empirical findings suggest that economic policy uncertainty and technology innovation contribute to environmental degradation, while financial development and renewable energy consumption help mitigate environmental degradation. The presence of the Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis is also confirmed. Based on these findings, a policy and environmental framework is proposed for sustainable development in fragile economies.

Dynamic nonlinear impacts of fossil energy on renewable energy stocks: A quantile perspective

Xing Li, Chaoran Xu, Juan Meng

Summary: In the global context of advocating low carbon and environmental protection, the renewable energy market has developed rapidly. This study explores the influence relationship between the fossil energy futures market and the renewable energy stock market using the quantile-quantile regression (QQ) method and the quantile causality (QC) method. The results indicate that the relationship between the two markets is weakly positive in normal market conditions, but significantly affected by market states and country heterogeneity.

Microbial biodegradation of plastics: Challenges, opportunities, and a critical perspective

Shilpa, Nitai Basak, Sumer Singh Meena

Summary: The abundance of synthetic polymers in the environment has increased due to uncontrolled utilization and disposal, leading to concerns about accumulation and saturation. Plastic pollution has risen exponentially during the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily due to single-use plastics such as PPE kits, gloves, and face masks. Physicochemical methods for degrading synthetic polymers have limited efficiency and produce hazardous by-products. However, microbial species isolated from landfills and dumpsites have shown promise in utilizing plastics as a carbon source, energy, and biomass production. Microbial biodegradation approaches offer a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution to the plastic waste problem, with the potential to be combined with physicochemical methods for optimal results.

The impacts of El Nino-southern oscillation on renewable energy stock markets: Evidence from quantile perspective

Yu Wei, Jiahao Zhang, Yongfei Chen, Yizhi Wang

Summary: This study examines the heterogeneous impacts of El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on renewable energy stock markets under different market conditions. The results show significant shocks of ENSO on the EU market, but no significant influence on the US market. There is an obvious asymmetry in the responses of the EU market to ENSO under bullish and bearish markets. Strong La Nina events have larger impacts than strong El Nino events on the EU market. Strong La Nina events during the COVID-19 crisis may deteriorate the performance of the EU market.

Nexus between macroeconomic uncertainty, oil prices, and exports: evidence from quantile-on-quantile regression approach

Vishal Dagar, Sakshi Malik

Summary: International trade plays a crucial role in boosting economic growth and development. This study aims to empirically analyze the determinants of Pakistan's trade exports with its top-5 trade partners. Previous research has suffered from biased findings due to the use of aggregate data and the neglect of likely asymmetries in export drivers. This study utilizes monthly data on oil prices and macroeconomic uncertainty to investigate the determinants of exports, employing advanced econometric tests and quantile-on-quantile regression techniques to handle asymmetries in the modeled series. The findings highlight a positive and significant relationship between oil prices and exports, while macroeconomic uncertainty negatively impacts the country's exports. Key policy implications are provided based on these results.

Hoelter, Soile Tapio, Florian Wagner, Andreas Beyerlein, Fabian Theis, Horst Zitzelsberger, Ulrike Kulka, Jerzy Adamski, Jochen Graw, Claudia Dalke

Summary: The long-term effects of low and moderate doses of ionizing radiation on the lens remain debated, with a study on B6C3F1 mice revealing no significant increase in posterior subcapsular cataracts (PSCs) after exposure to doses below 0.5 Gy. Factors such as sex and aging had a clearer effect on the lenses compared to radiation and genotype. Metabolomics analyses showed a sex effect in plasma samples, suggesting a complex interplay of factors in the development of PSCs.

Summary: The study investigates the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infections in children in Germany. The results show an increasing trend of seropositivity over time, especially in children with migrant background. Children under three are more susceptible to infection, but the infection rate levels off later. Serologic testing provides a more valid estimate of infections compared to recalled infections.
