Item type:Publication, Regenerative Organizations: Introduction to the Special Issue(2021); Oana Branzei<jats:p> This special issue presents six articles and two invited editorials that explore the antecedents, mechanisms, and consequences of regenerative organizing. Together, they draw on a range of disciplines from both organizational and environmental sciences to discover, theorize, and illustrate life-giving intersections between humans and natural ecosystems in Anthropocene. This introduction provides an overview of the reasons for, and especially the possibilities of, regenerative organizing as we stress the limits of planetary boundaries in a post-climate change world. </jats:p>Scopus© Citations 23 1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Ten new insights in climate science 2020 – a horizon scan(2021) ;Erik Pihl ;Eva Alfredsson ;Magnus Bengtsson ;Kathryn J. BowenVanesa Cástan Broto<jats:sec id="S2059479821000028_sec_a1"><jats:title>Non-technical summary</jats:title><jats:p>We summarize some of the past year's most important findings within climate change-related research. New research has improved our understanding of Earth's sensitivity to carbon dioxide, finds that permafrost thaw could release more carbon emissions than expected and that the uptake of carbon in tropical ecosystems is weakening. Adverse impacts on human society include increasing water shortages and impacts on mental health. Options for solutions emerge from rethinking economic models, rights-based litigation, strengthened governance systems and a new social contract. The disruption caused by COVID-19 could be seized as an opportunity for positive change, directing economic stimulus towards sustainable investments.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec id="S2059479821000028_sec_a2"><jats:title>Technical summary</jats:title><jats:p>A synthesis is made of ten fields within climate science where there have been significant advances since mid-2019, through an expert elicitation process with broad disciplinary scope. Findings include: (1) a better understanding of equilibrium climate sensitivity; (2) abrupt thaw as an accelerator of carbon release from permafrost; (3) changes to global and regional land carbon sinks; (4) impacts of climate change on water crises, including equity perspectives; (5) adverse effects on mental health from climate change; (6) immediate effects on climate of the COVID-19 pandemic and requirements for recovery packages to deliver on the Paris Agreement; (7) suggested long-term changes to governance and a social contract to address climate change, learning from the current pandemic, (8) updated positive cost–benefit ratio and new perspectives on the potential for green growth in the short- and long-term perspective; (9) urban electrification as a strategy to move towards low-carbon energy systems and (10) rights-based litigation as an increasingly important method to address climate change, with recent clarifications on the legal standing and representation of future generations.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec id="S2059479821000028_sec_a3"><jats:title>Social media summary</jats:title><jats:p>Stronger permafrost thaw, COVID-19 effects and growing mental health impacts among highlights of latest climate science.</jats:p></jats:sec>Scopus© Citations 24 2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Municipal Green Purchasing in Mexico: Policy Adoption and Implementation Success(2020) ;Ana R. Leal ;David Perez-Castillo; Bryan W. Husted<jats:p>In this paper, we seek to determine what factors drive the adoption of green purchasing among municipalities in Mexico and the success of their implementation. Given the lack of research and theory in the area, this study is exploratory in nature. We applied the green purchasing survey developed by Arizona State University to all municipalities in Mexico with a population of 25,000 or more inhabitants. Using the least absolute shrinkage and selector operator method (LASSO), we reduced the set of measures, which we then employed in a logistic regression to predict whether the municipality would adopt a green purchasing policy. We found that complementary environmental practices, department rules, and city-wide contracts to reduce purchasing costs have a positive and significant effect on the propensity to adopt green purchasing policies, but the time for routine low-cost purchases has a negative effect on green purchasing policy adoption. Then, using two-stage least squares, we developed a model of the factors leading to successful implementation of green purchasing. We found that complementary environmental policies, environmental practices, environmental program knowledge, and city-wide contracts to reduce purchasing costs are positively and significantly related to successful implementation. However, department resources and the time for routine low-cost purchase are significant, but negatively related.</jats:p>3 1Scopus© Citations 11
