Summary: This study developed a low-tier GSCM model for managing second-tier suppliers and explored how to effectively motivate these suppliers to participate in green supply chain management. The findings showed that the manufacturer understood the prominent role of second-tier suppliers, but these suppliers had limited awareness of the manufacturer's requirements, and the first-tier supplier overlooked the importance of internal drivers by second-tier suppliers. Additionally, government policies, such as GSCM-related demonstration projects, were found to be elemental in promoting low-tier GSCM implementation.

Summary: This study investigates how customers' environmental regulation impacts suppliers' green innovation. Using a unique dataset of customer-supplier relationships among listed firms in China, the findings show that suppliers increase their green innovation in response to intensified environmental regulation pressure from customers. This effect remains consistent across different measures of green innovation and environmental regulation, as well as a different sample. The study also finds that the influence of customers' environmental regulation on suppliers' green innovation is positively associated with the customers' bargaining power. Overall, these results contribute to the growing body of research on the significant role of the supply chain in firms' decision making processes.

Summary: This study uses the Method of Moments Quantile Regression (MMQR) technique to analyze the impact of financial globalization and renewable energy consumption on ecological footprint in newly industrialized countries. The findings suggest that financial globalization and renewable energy consumption contribute to environmental quality, while economic growth and natural resource consumption increase ecological footprint. The study also validates the Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis and finds that financial globalization indirectly affects the environment through natural resources.

Summary: Opportunism is a hazard in complex buyer-supplier relationships, which has become more challenging to manage due to increased pressure for sustainability-related performance. Sustainability requirements are often poorly defined, hard to document, and subject to change, creating openings for opportunistic behavior. Understanding sustainability-related opportunism requires considering expectations, performance verification, and the dynamic nature of stakeholder concerns.
