Mapping the Influence of European Environmental Policies Toward Climate Neutrality Progress: A Quantile Analysis of Green Technologies and Policy Effectiveness

The Energy Journal, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: April 2, 2025

The diverse performance asymmetries and policy efforts toward climate neutrality among EU member states remain underexplored. Addressing this gap, we develop a conceptual framework to analyze the influence of green effectiveness technologies across tiers emissions’ productivity in EU-28 during 2010 2019, pivotal period for efforts. Results from an instrumental panel quantile estimator reveal that national policies have asymmetric impact progress, particularly benefiting low-performing countries. Green fiscal policy, such as energy taxes, is not precondition neutrality. We highlight unexplored role environmental performance, finding effective auditing fostering progress. Eco-innovation clean progress tiers, underscoring need targeted incentives. technology development proves be key contributor tiers. This study advances understanding SDGs 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 16.

Study on Life-Cycle Carbon Footprints and an Uncertainty Analysis of Mega Sporting Events: An Analysis in China

Buildings, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(8), P. 2510 - 2510

Published: Aug. 14, 2024

This study proposes a model for the quantitative evaluation of life-cycle carbon footprints large sporting events and uncertainties related to them. The was used analyze case mega event in Beijing, China. First, includes preparation stage, holding an end stage. These stages consider energy resources construction, operation, transportation, catering, accommodation. Second, this prediction using model-based simulation-based methods address difficulty obtaining traffic activity. Third, semi-quantitative method that combines data quality indicator stochastic simulation is adopted uncertainty analysis events. Finally, indicate stage accounts highest CO2 emissions at 92.1%, followed by 7.5% 0.4% total sustainable scenario Beijing amount 205,080.3 t CO2e, per capita during event’s 0.26 CO2e/person. input parameters 0.0617, indicating low, reliability results high.

Comparative Analysis of Carbon Footprints from Away and Home Matches: A Study on Leading Basketball and Football Teams in Türkiye

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(21), P. 9269 - 9269

Published: Oct. 25, 2024

Problem: Basketball and football teams in Türkiye have the capacity to travel hundreds of kilometres for league matches. In general, such major leagues leading travelling from not been sufficiently researched context Türkiye’s teams. this context, aim study is assess compare carbon footprint transport activities basketball their home away matches 2023–2024 season. Methods: The research based on EN 16258 ICAO emissions methodologies. This aims calculate different methods, including bus plane, used by five Türkiye. Results: findings show that there are significant differences between terms distances footprints. Trabzonspor Black Sea region released highest CO2 air with a total 91,667.1 kgCO2e, while Fenerbahçe Beko had lowest 5316.72 kgCO2e. travel, Gaziantep FK led 4356.45 Türk Telekom was team 1233.225 also reveal notable difference number trees need plant offset emissions. Because patterns, Antalyaspor would 3481 trees, whereas only 348 trees. Conclusions: Air emerging as dominant source has greater impact environmental rely heavily airplanes. study, structure duration play critical role shaping sports season, which longer compared basketball, requires more frequent especially remote regions, resulting higher than basketball. dominance Marmara negative since these generally shorter distances.

Sports, Environment and Climate Change: the Carbon Footprint of Sports Facilities Based on Energy Consumption in Turkey

Baltic Journal of Sport and Health Sciences, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 2(133)

Published: Dec. 20, 2024

In this research, it is aimed to make carbon footprint measurements related energy consumption (electricity, natural gas) in sports facilities belonging public institutions Ardahan province Turkey. Afterwards, discuss the suggestions for minimising of type and characteristics light current literature. This research limited conducted as a case study. context, amounts electricity gas consumed 10 with different types located provincial centre districts 12 months during 2023 were used data set. Carbon calculations caused by from fossil resources carried out within scope Scope 1. addition, frequently due ease access amount 1 relatively simpler sets. The total calculated 173,467 tonnes, while 511,578.21 tonnes. 2023, year 685,045.21 where considered study, results can be attributed 2 main reasons. first one climate conditions. second increase participation amateur professional events organisations held intensive use throughout months. As reducing their negative environmental impacts are very important terms sustainable goals. Keywords: footprint, environment, sustainability, sports, facilitie.
