This study quantifies the CO2 equivalent emissions of sevoflurane anesthesia across fresh gas flows. Sevoflurane emissions dominate (>97% of total), and lowering fresh gas flow is the key to reducing global warming impact.

Jiacheng Zhu, Juntao Gao, Guangnian Xiao +1

This paper develops a multilateral bargaining model for the fair distribution of GHG carbon pricing revenues under the IMO net-zero framework. Incorporating responsibility–need reference points, loss aversion, horizontal fairness preference…

This paper critically examines Indonesia's pathway to net zero by 2060, analyzing energy transition, policy challenges, and technological solutions.

Zheng Chen, David Bunn, Bingyi Jiang +9

This study examines public willingness to pay for carbon offsets in Canada's national parks, exploring the potential of offsets as a financing mechanism for net-zero goals.

Asmae El Jaouhari, Ashutosh Samadhiya, Anil Kumar +3

This study bridges the research-practice gap in real estate decarbonization and green investment through a PRISMA-informed review of 74 articles. It identifies five driver clusters (including green premium) and eight barrier clusters, and o…
