Economic Sustainability of Scrapping Electric and Internal Combustion Vehicles: A Comparative Multiple Italian Case Study

World Electric Vehicle Journal, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 16(1), P. 32 - 32

Published: Jan. 9, 2025

The transition to sustainable mobility is one of the most pressing and complex challenges for automotive industry, with impacts that extend beyond mere reduction emissions. Electric vehicles, while at center this evolution, raise questions about consumption natural resources, such as lithium, copper, cobalt, their long-term sustainability. In addition, introduction advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI) autonomous systems, brings new related management components materials needed production, creating a significant impact on supply chains. growing demand electric vehicles pushing industry rethink production models, favoring adoption circular economy principles minimize waste optimize use resources. To better understand implications transition, study adopts multiple case methodology, which allows in-depth exploration different contexts scenarios, analysis real cases dismantling recycling internal combustion engines (ICEs) (EVs). research includes financial simulation comparison revenues from ICE EV highlighting differences in value recycled effectiveness practices applied two types vehicles. This approach provides detailed overview economic benefits end life helping outline optimal strategies cost-effective future sector.

THE EFFECTS OF MICROPLASTIC AND NANO PLASTIC PARTICLES ON THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE HUMAN BODY

The Journal of School and University Medicine, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 11(02), P. 21 - 31

Published: Jan. 1, 2024

Introduction: Plastic materials represent one of the main sources waste, affecting environment with repercussions on human body. Until recently, this topic has not been so addressed, possibly because many incompletely known things, but also large industries that inevitably use plastic and want to promote develop their businesses maximum potential. The following material presents harmful effects components can have health, which is an alarm signal for public health. objective study highlight Mps Np In carrying out our we relied qualitative research, while relying a comprehensive review existing literature critical comparative analysis, accessing data from Science Direct, Google Scholar, journal articles, government reports, publications international environmental organizations, giving priority studies published in recent years. Results: affects reproductive system, increase risk vascular diseases, last least these particles affect skin, changing its normal functions. impact health must be taken into account tiny all factors: water, air, soil, biodiversity.

Foucauldian Influence on Sustainable Plastic Waste Management Behaviors Among Olabisi Onabanjo University Undergraduates, Nigeria

Research Square (Research Square), Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Dec. 17, 2024

This study investigates how Foucauldian ideas affect undergraduates at Olabisi Onabanjo University in Nigeria to adopt sustainable practices for reducing plastic waste. It aims comprehend Foucault's historical ontology of subjects, subjectivation, and self-practices might inspire tactics promoting behaviours, particularly the reduction The attempts do this by investigating subjectivation changes individual attitudes behaviours towards minimising waste, as well discourses power dynamics influence that lead behaviours. also intends evaluate efficacy interventions target encouraging trash reduction. theoretical foundation is based on theory, social practice behavioural change theories, environmental psychology, systems theory. To achieve these goals, a descriptive approach was used, with qualitative data collecting content analysis. Undergraduate students from participated gathering. Their findings offer important views approaches have potential inform development more effective methods combating waste pollution, adding global sustainability initiatives.
