High-income countries often outsource material demands to poorer along with the associated environmental damage. This phenomenon can also occur within (large) countries, such as China, which was responsible for 24 30% of global footprint (MF) between 2007 and 2010. Understanding distribution development China's MF is hence critical resource efficiency circular economy ambitions globally. Here we present a comprehensive analysis at provincial sectoral levels. We combine provincial-level...

The development of environmentally friendly plastics is critical to ensure sustainable development. In contrast polymer derived from petrochemicals, inorganic minerals, which are the most abundant matter in Earth's crust, friendly. However, brittleness these minerals limits their applications as plastics. Here, because advantages both biomineralization and ionic polymerization, calcium phosphate (CaP, a typical geological biological mineral) oligomers used for biomimetic mineralization under...

Green hydrogen produced from renewable sources such as wind and photovoltaic (PV) power is expected to be pivotal in China's carbon neutrality target by 2060. This study assessed the potential production, levelized costs of (LCOH), cost structure diverse mainland Chinese provinces 2020 It considered various combinations electrolysis technologies, specifically alkaline (AE) proton exchange membrane (PEM), conjunction with green electricity sources. The analysis considers technological...

Recent plastic flow research has largely focused on commodity plastics (PE, PP, PVC, PS, ABS), yet a sizable share of other polymer types remains understudied. These non-commodity suffer from inconsistent definitions, complex classifications, and data gaps, which hinder accurate assessment their production, use, end-of-life management. This study develops dynamic material analysis to investigate 12 key "non-commodity" in China─including PET, PU, seven engineering plastics, three...

Sustainability is increasingly concerned with the complex interactions between nature and society, we need to seek solutions towards challenges that threaten humanity's collective wellbeing. Towards this end, it critical advance application of research examining dynamic components social-ecological systems their emerging properties. A key area on advancing tools strategies relevant evaluation strengthening resilience. Redundancy, diversity, modularity are important characteristics resilience...

Recycling plastic can abate the environmental pollution as well CO2 emissions by saving carbon-intensive feedstock input. The uncertain carbon price places significant effects on establishment and operation of whole supply chain. This study develops a green chain model combined with geographic information system (GIS) to account for uncertainty evaluate its closed-loop (CLSC) recycling. A two-stage stochastic programming is constructed, in which variable, modelled geometric Brownian motion...

Detecting spatial carbon inequality is critical to achieving regional emission reduction targets from the perspectives of ensuring equality and efficiency. While previous studies have measured identified its drivers, few explored these drivers at a sectorial level. Taking China's Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) as case study example, this explores sectoral level reveals following key points. (1) The heterogeneity in CO₂ emissions driven by economic factors increased 2002 2012. (2) wide...

Inspired by inorganic oligomers and their polymerization, we herein develop a heterogeneous polymerization tactic that can be used to prepare muscle-like hybrid hydrogel inducing the of calcium phosphate (CPO) onto polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) molecular chain network. In this process, CPO units bond with PVA molecules via assistance from sodium alginate (SA), then gradually polymerize along organic chains form ultrafine hydroxyapatite nanolines diameter ∼1 nm. Because well integration phases...
