The city-level precision industrial emission reduction management based on enterprise performance evaluation and path design: A case of Changzhi, China

El objetivo de este artículo es analizar el efecto de la Orientación Emprendedora (OE) como estrategia gerencial en el rendimiento de la empresa, diferenciando entre gerentes varones y gerentes mujeres. Para llevar a cabo el estudio fue recopilada información de 170 empresas del sector cuero-calzado del estado de Guanajuato, principalmente en el municipio de León. El modelo diseñado fue contrastado a través de un sistema de ecuaciones estructurales por mínimos cuadrados parciales (PLS-SEM) mediante el software SmartPLS®. Los resultados generales señalan que si bien existe un efecto positivo con rendimiento, existe una diferencia en la conformación de la OE, dependiendo del género del gerente. En el caso de las gerentes mujeres existe una baja orientación hacia la competitividad agresiva y una mayor orientación hacia la autonomía y proactividad que sus contrapartes. Este estudio servirá a los gerentes, a investigadores y a funcionarios gubernamentales para orientar los esfuerzos para fortalecer una gerencia femenina en la región y de igual forma a los académicos a generar nuevos acercamientos teóricos al constructo de OE desde una perspectiva de género.Palabras clave: Orientación Emprendedora, Mujeres, Gerencia, Empresa PYME, Guanajuato.AbstractThe main goal of this article is to analyze the effect of Entrepreneurial Orientation (EO) as a management strategy on the enterprise performance, differentiating between male and female managers. To carry out the study, information was gathered from 170 companies in the leather-footwear sector of the state of Guanajuato, mainly in the city of León. The designed model was contrasted through a system of structural equations by partial least squares (PLS-SEM) using SmartPLS® software. The general results indicate that although there is a positive effect with performance, there is a difference in the conformation of the EO, depending on the gender of the manager. In the case of women managers, there is a low orientation towards aggressive competitiveness and a greater orientation towards autonomy and proactivity than their counterparts. This study will serve managers, researchers and government officials to guide efforts to strengthen a female management in the region and in the same way academics to generate new theoretical approaches to the construction of EO from a gender perspective.Keywords: Entrepreneurial Orientation, Women, Management, SME Company, Guanajuato.

This paper evaluates the real effects of pollution charges reform on [Formula: see text] emissions at the city level. Using the establishment of Comprehensive Work Plan for Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction (The Plan) in China as a quasi-natural experiment, our difference-in-differences estimation shows that: (1) increasing pollution charges has a significant and positive effect on controlling industrial waste [Formula: see text], and this relationship is robust to different specifications and alternative measures; (2) [Formula: see text] emissions can be reduced to achieve reduction targets by forcing companies to strengthen the degree of process production controls and end-of-pipe treatment; (3) eastern and western cities have a better pollution control effect than the other regions, and large cities have better emission reduction effects than smaller cities. Overall, this paper sorts out the evolution of China’s pollution charge policy, and reveals the mechanisms behind the real effects of pollution charges reform on [Formula: see text] emissions, thus providing timely implications for policymakers concerned with environmental protection.

System Performance Evaluation

The city of Portland’s Traffic System Performance Evaluation (TSPE) system is an innovative, practical, and cost-effective tool for monitoring traffic system performance in response to federal, state, and local legislation. It has been designed, implemented, and applied using readily available traffic data. The TSPE goes beyond traditional level-of-service analysis and gives the city a means to identify operational deficiencies and provide a baseline for future performance monitoring. The TSPE includes five performance indicators that were crafted in response to questions about traffic performance and in recognition of the costs and availability of data to support performance evaluation. Each of the five indicators addresses a specific element of traffic performance. District accessibility measures the ease of access to and egress from major activity centers by examining the delay at gateway intersections. The street origin-destination characteristics indicator assesses the percentage of nonlocal trips on streets with different functional classifications. Travel time is measured on a set of specific routes between activity centers. The traffic flow indicator assesses the variation in speeds on major roadways. The multimodal service levels indicator assesses multimodal operational performance based on service levels for four different transportation modes (vehicular, transit, bicycle, and pedestrian) along a corridor. The system has proved to be relatively easy and inexpensive to apply. Other jurisdictions developing performance evaluation systems should consider integrating some components of the TSPE system.

In order to measure the portfolio credit risk of commercial banks in energy saving and environmental protection industry accurately, this paper proposes the value VaRGP of green credit risk and constructs a related model based on Pair Copula grouping model, VaR method (combined with enumeration algorithm).The results show that the credit schemes that commercial banks focus on investing in two areas of industrial emission reduction and environmental restoration is consistent with the conclusion that the two fields have the strongest development momentum.Besides, at different levels of confidence, all of VaRGP have passed the return test, which fully shows that the model is feasible and effective to measure the credit risk in different green fields and to formulate the optimal combination strategy.
