Summary: Executive functions (EFs) are responsible for cognitive control of emotions and behaviors, as well as information processing for learning and memory. Impairments in EFs, including attention, working memory, flexibility, and self-regulation, are associated with various psychopathologies throughout life. EF development starts in early childhood and continues into early adulthood, with vulnerability to environmental influences. Genetic factors also contribute to interindividual variation in EFs, and recent studies have explored the relationship between early-life adversity, genetics, and EF development.

Summary: The Turkish government plans to increase the capacity of coal-fired power plants, but they cause pollution, emit greenhouse gases, and undermine climate goals. Subsidies and exemptions for the coal sector may hinder the development of renewable energy sources. Therefore, Turkey needs to increase the share of renewable energy in its energy mix.

Summary: This study examines the sources of energy related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, the hazards of climate change and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the global solar energy potential, renewable energy sustainability indicators, impediments, and the environmental implications of fossil fuels. The purpose of this study is to investigate viewpoints on solar energy technologies for sustainable development, with a particular emphasis on photovoltaic (PV), as well as the literature on solar energy technology performance, in order to ascertain worldwide solar energy adoption trends. The discussions address the solar industry's fundamental ideas, the global energy scenario, the highlights of research conducted to improve the solar industry, prospective applications and future challenges for a more efficient solar industry that may help alleviate the energy crisis. A review of the framework and development of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and Renewable Energy Laws (REL) on a global scale was conducted.

Summary: This review highlights the potential of ionic liquids (ILs) for sustainable circular biorefineries, particularly emphasizing their importance in lignocellulosic biomass valorization. However, at the laboratory scale, IL-mediated biocatalysis faces limitations such as enzyme denaturation and loss of viability for fermenting microbes. Although enzyme stabilization in ILs has improved, the understanding of microbial interactions with ILs is still exploratory.

Summary: This study examines whether shifts in policymaking stance can explain the predictability in excess energy poverty or fuel poverty levels. Energy-related poverty is a subcategory of global poverty and can be categorized into accessibility problems related to energy poverty and affordability issues associated with fuel poverty. Developed and developing countries have different energy issues, with developed countries dealing with fuel poverty and developing countries with energy poverty. Difficulties in energy access can be devastating for people at risk of poverty. Social welfare is at stake due to the energy crisis and warfare in eastern Europe. Solutions to energy poverty and fuel poverty include adopting renewables, governmental regulation, and supranational support through green deals and sustainable development goals (SDGs). In short, inflationary trends and war have put Agenda 2030 at risk due to the provocation of sustainability through energy-related vulnerability, insecurity, and poverty phenomena.

Summary: The sustainability of the hydraulic fracturing water cycle is a topic of debate in North America and China. Common environmental risks exist in the two largest HF regions, with challenges such as water stress, contamination of aquatic and soil systems, and induced seismicity. Standardized practices and ecotoxicological studies are needed to address these issues and prevent adverse effects.

Summary: Research has identified various actors involved in addressing institutional challenges, but there is a lack of theoretical framework for conceptualizing different modes of institutional entrepreneuring. Drawing on assemblage theory, two ideal types of assembling actorhood, arborescent and rhizomatic, are articulated. These modes are differentiated based on principles of association, combination, division, and population, leading to the proposal of an arborescent-rhizomatic space comprising clusters of different actorhood types.

Summary: Social entrepreneurship is an important approach to addressing grand challenges, yet there is a lack of overarching framework linking the pathways taken by social entrepreneurs to their positive effects. To address this gap, a literature review was conducted to differentiate between social value and social change as distinct outcomes and identify seven pathways to achieve these outcomes. Based on this analysis, a research agenda is outlined to explore the dynamics, influence of contextual factors and entrepreneurs, design principles of business models and innovations, and accountability for social value and social change.

Summary: The production of shale gas in China will impact the global energy landscape and carbon neutrality. However, limited and threatened water resources may hinder its expansion. Projected data suggests that water stress will worsen in two-thirds of China's provinces in the next decade. By 2035, annual water use for shale gas extraction is estimated to increase significantly, posing potential risks for water competition in drought-prone areas. Additionally, the wastewater management market is expected to grow to $0.2 billion by 2035. This study emphasizes the need for policies addressing the energy-water nexus to facilitate China's transition to carbon neutrality.
