Ecological security is an important basis of the entire human security system, the cornerstone for human survival. Knowing the status of ecological security is crucial for making decisions to avoid ecological disaster. Existing research, both the basic research on ecological security mechanism and information service systems, is still primitive in their abilities to resolve eco-security problem...

In this study, individuals’ levels of personal responsibility and actual behavior towards protecting the environment were studied to examine the effects both these variables would have on the individuals’ environmental guilt or “eco-guilt.” The research measured 95 participants’ personal eco-guilt through surveys. Half received a manipulation that was used to make them feel responsible for thei...

In recent decades, several eco-lodges have been established in biodiversity areas of Ethiopia. For example, plenty of eco-lodges are found in Amhara, Oromia and Southern Nation, Nationalities and People’s National Regional States. Most of the times, as eco-lodges are established from environmentally friendly, economically feasible and socially acceptable local materials, we argue that eco-lodge...

This research modifies the leading-edge structure of NACA 0015 and 4415 to resemble nose a beluga whale. The focus this modification is improve airfoil's aerodynamic performance investigate changing fluid flow patterns. Numerical equation used RANS combined with k-ε turbulence model. Mesh independence test shows that mesh 200 elements best mesh. Validation results reveal CFD data can follow tre...

This article explores informal environmental education (EE) experiences at eco-attractions. A consortium of three UK-based environmental charities designed an eco-attraction-based EE program aiming to inspire responses to environmental change. Over six months, educators at six eco-attractions delivered this two-day program to 430 young people. This article conveys qualitative insights into lear...

TiCl4/nano-cellulose as a biodegradable and eco-friendly Lewis acid catalyst was synthesized via reaction of nano-cellulose and TiCl4. This catalyst was characterized and used for synthesis of asymmetric highly functionalized tetrahydropyridines via a five-component condensation reaction of p-substituted anilines, aldehydes and ethyl acetoacetate under solvent-free condition. Simple methodology...

This paper offers a survey of current writing and practice within the area of Buddhist environmental ethics. Consideration of the manner in which sections of contemporary Buddhism have embraced a range of environmental concerns suggests that four fairly distinct types of discourse are in the process of formation, i.e., eco-spirituality, eco-justice, eco-traditionalism and eco-apologetics. This ...

Today’s consumers are more aware of the environmental issues caused by heavy industrialization. They demand eco friendly products which will reduce the damages caused by industrialization. They are interested in buying eco friendly products and willing to pay more (Consumers who care). The willingness to pay more on eco-friendly products differs among demographic groups. This difference is caus...
