    Abstract Besar NA, Suhaili NS, Fei JLJ, Sha’ari FW, Idris MI, Hatta SH, Kodoh J. 2020. Carbon stock estimation of Sulaman Lake Forest Reserve in Sabah, Malaysia. Biodiversitas 21: 5657-5664. Mangrove forest has a significant role in sequestering carbon gases from the atmosphere but there are lesser literature has been made on it. This research was conducted to quantify the aboveground, belowground and soil carbon stock in Sulaman Lake Forest Reserve, Sabah, Malaysia. Nine transect lines with 125 m length were established and a circle with 7 m radius was set in every 25 m. Forest inventory was done to get the diameter breast height of standing trees and soil sampling with four different depths (0-15 cm, 15-30 cm, 30-50 cm and 50-100 cm) were taken for soil analysis and bulk density. Allometric equation was used to calculate aboveground and belowground biomass then its carbon stock was estimated as 50% from its total biomass. The result shows the total carbon stock in the study area was 441.72 Mg C ha-1, and soil has the highest value of carbon stock (351.98 ± 11.73 Mg C ha-1) followed by aboveground carbon (67.30 ± 20.55 Mg C ha-1) and belowground carbon (22.44 ± 0.17 Mg C ha-1). This study found that soil carbon stock made up almost 80% of the total carbon stock in the mangrove forest. This ecosystem also shows a higher value of carbon stock compared to other locations hence emphasized the importance of prioritizing a mangrove forest in any climate mitigation efforts.

    Abstract China's seaborne foreign oil supply through the Malacca Strait is facing security challenges due to territorial disputes, pirate attacks, and geopolitics. To overcome these challenges, China plans to import oil through one of the corridors of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI)-the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). This study estimated and compared ship emissions and their externalities associated with seaborne oil supply from the top five oil suppliers to China through the existing shipping route via the Malacca Strait and proposed route via CEPC. Ship activity-based methodology is applied to estimate the emissions of air pollutants (CO

    Abstract This article mainly compares different effects of political stability, corruption control and rule of law on CO₂ emissions across 65 belt and road initiative countries from 2000-2016. We utilize across low income (LI), lower middle(LM), upper middle(UM) and high income (HI)countries. The results show that institutional factors such as political stability, corruption control and rule of law are highly important in lowering carbon emissions and improving environmental quality. The interacting effect between political stability and rule of law can reduce CO₂ emissions. Foreign direct investment (FDI) shows a heterogeneous effect on carbon emissions across different income groups, confirming “Pollution Haven” and “Pollution Halo” hypothesis. Trade openness reduces CO₂ emissions in low income and high income countries, which increases CO₂ emissions in lower-middle income countries. It is important to enhance the enforcement of environmental law to decrease CO₂ emissions.

    Abstract The European Union (EU) embraced a fast-track transition toward renewable energy (RE) to achieve climate neutrality and make energy more affordable. However, in 2022 around 11.8% Europeans are still energy-poor. In the last 15 years, RE consumption across EU countries grew significantly, and income per capita also increased. Nevertheless, energy poverty (EP), which is usually linked to RE and income level, has not shown any meaningful decline. To investigate the impact of RE and governance quality on EP, this study utilized panel data from 27 EU countries from 2005 to 2018. Method-of-moments quantile regression was employed to explore the nexus. Next, the results show that RE at the early transition stage does not reduce EP. In contrast, RE promotes an energy price hike at the early transition stage, triggering more EP. However, when RE permeates the system and becomes a dominant energy supply source, it eventually helps reduce EP. Also, governance quality exerts a positive effect and reduces EP. The results further show that income per capita reduces EP, whereas electricity prices and unemployment rates promote EP.

    Abstract Eco-efficiency (EE) is an important indicator to reflect the level of sustainable economic growth. This article places contribution to the existing literature by examining the relationship between innovation and eco-efficiency by incorporating three different innovation indicators: invention patent, utility patent and design patent. The dataset covers a balanced panel of 30 China’s provinces over the period of 2003–2017. Super efficiency slack-based model (SSBM) and super efficiency epsilon-based model (SEBM) under meta-frontier is used to measure the eco-efficiency. While, Bootstrap Truncation Regression is employed to analyze the different impacts of innovations on eco-efficiency. Regarding efficiency, the results indicate that eco-efficiency in China is at a decreasing trend overall, and there exists a certain heterogeneity among different regions. The results of Bootstrap Truncation Regression show that the invention patent and design patent exert positive effects on China’s eco-efficiency while utility patent inhibits the improvement of efficiency score during the sample period. Moreover, the estimation validates the existence of EKC (Environmental Kuznets curve) theory for China based on the extended STIRPAT model. Inward foreign direct investment (IFDI) has both pollution halo effect and pollution haven effect in China, while the effect of outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) on eco-efficiency is different across different regions. A U-shaped relationship is found between environmental regulation and eco-efficiency. On the basis of results, government should formulate strict environmental regulation and impose targeted subsidies on green technological innovation to promote green economic growth.
