In this study, the potential sources and detrimental effects that will be caused by the several green house gases are firstly presented. The exact proportions of the green house gas, produced from fossil fuel and the exact proportions of the green house gas that is produced naturally are found out. Next, the author finds out the green house gases that contribute the most to the global warming and their causes. Therefore the proportion of the green house gas that is emitted by the developing countries is found out. In addition, the exact proportion and the amount of sustainable energy that are used to generate electricity in some representative developing countries are analyzed. Subsequently, the author proposes a hypothesis that if these countries have 20% of clean energy usage in their gross energy consumption, the five representatives effects, which are caused by the green house effect will be mitigated. The result shows that these effects will be mitigated with different extents.

Climate change is a multi-dimensional global problem. Its causes and impacts are distributed and felt across the International system, surpassing the traditional boundaries and jurisdictions of the states. The complex politics of climate change results from the global economy's interdependence on green house gas emissions. This paper attempts to explore the politics of climate change between developed and developing countries, International relations practice and environment issues in various International conferences. The historical perspective of climate change issues eliberated since Stockholm conference to the latest Paris conference is analysed. Adaptation, mitigation, finance, technology all these issues are highlighted in the paper. The paper has viewed that the International policy on environment is being shaped by inequality of bargaining power between the North and South. The developing countries under the leadership of India have taken firm position against the developed nations on the issue of green house gas emission, funding and technology, the paper has argued. Towards the end, this paper has focused on possible measures to address the problems of climate change through foreign policy initiatives, trade and investment, adaptation and mitigation.

The use of dirty (fossil fuel-based) energy in the process of economic growth challenges humanity through different health issues. This research examines the health risks in the form of mortality rates and the occurrence of respiratory illnesses due to energy usage, greenhouse gas discharges, and economic venture in twenty developing countries of Asian. For this objective, the study investigated a panel dataset of twenty-three years (1995–2018) to measure the short and long-term consequences of environmental contamination on health issues. Results of this study generated through the Autoregressive-Distributed lag (ARDL) technique of econometric. Experimental outcomes of the study confirm that dirty energy, carbon emission, and the process of natural resource exhaustion have a significant and positive impact on health risks on the people of the developing region of Asia. On the other hand, the per capita income growth and clean energy usage contributing positively to human health improvement. The high mortality is positively associated with carbon emission in the case of short-run analysis. These results suggest a comprehensive governance policy set to protect people from the negative impact of dirty energy usage and carbon emission discharge.

The purpose of this study is to assess the carbon footprint emission at UiTM Perak, Seri Iskandar Campus. The assessment focuses on electrical power and transportation usage. Questionnaires were distributed to the staffs and students to survey their transportation usage in the year 2014 while for electrical consumption, the study used total energy consumed in the year 2014. Data was calculating with the formula by Green House Gas Protocol. Total carbon footprint produced by UiTM Perak, Seri Jskandar Campus in the year 2014 is 11842.09 MTC02' The result of the study is hoped to provide strategies for the university to reduce the carbon footprint emission.

This paper aims to investigate the impacts of customer orientation, competitor orientation, learning orientation, technology orientation, and entrepreneurial orientation on hotel innovation and performance. Data from 69 hotels in four Angolan provinces were analyzed using the partial least squares (PLS) approach and multi group analysis. The results show that learning and entrepreneurial orientations have a positive impact on hotel innovation. As anticipated, innovation has a positive impact on performance. According to the multigroup analysis, only the hotel category has a moderating effect on performance. Results suggest that hotels in developing countries could add value to both customers and shareholders by promoting new services and exploring new business opportunities. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the few studies that has researched the impact of strategic orientation on hotel innovation and financial performance in developing countries.

PurposeThis paper takes a critical view of synergies and trade-offs and discloses the practices that countries and companies should apply to achieve sustainable development.Design/methodology/approachThis paper offers a systematic literature review of 408 papers to find models of sustainable development goals (SDGs) interaction with the aim of shedding light on the existing synergies and trade-offs and finding solutions to enhance these synergies and minimize the trade-offs.FindingsBoth rich and developing countries should follow multiple strategies to improve the quality of life of their citizens. Developing countries should focus on eradicating poverty. Rich countries should apply new economic models that are more likely to be environmental-friendly. Finally, the topic of SDGs should be revisited by the United Nations.Practical implicationsBoosting the quality of education and providing clean energy are two of the most relevant actions that should to be taken by countries, as they will accelerate the fulfilment of all the other SDGs. The use of circular economic models or new business models, such as the sharing economy, is essential to the achievement of sustained economic growth without negative environmental impact.Originality/valueThe paper analyzes SDG interactions and offers a critical vision of practices that countries and companies should adhere to for achieving sustainable development.
