Abstract Air pollution in general and motorcycle exhaust, in particular, is a big problem attracting a lot of attention from people and researchers worldwide because of the significant impacts it has on humans and the environment. The issue of air pollution is growing, and the impact is more evident than ever. Carbon dioxide represents a series of problems that we face daily but have not yet been effectively solved. Currently, microalgae are known to photosynthesize and use free CO2, bicarbonate ions as a source of nutrients to grow. Microalgae are developed under appropriate environmental conditions, which will bring admirable CO2 treatment efficiency and obtain biomass for other applications. The study approach was an inexpensive and natural air purification solution by microalgae, which is designed as a tubular photobioreactor. The study was conducted by evaluating the ability of Chlorella Vulgaris to grow and absorb CO2 emissions in the newly established system with exhaust gas supplied from a mini motorcycle engine. The results showed that microalgae grew stably in the tubular photobioreactor system with a biomass concentration of 6×106 cells/ml after 42 days of the experiment. Simultaneously with the stable growth of microalgae, the CO2 emission concentration was reduced with 26.59% absorption efficiency after 11 days of the experiment. Finally, establishing the tubular photobioreactor technology system has yielded impressive initial results in cultivating stable growing microalgae combined with CO2 emission treatment.

The aim of this research is yo understand the impact of the implementation of accrual-based accounting at Hastinapura Provincial Government. This research is a qualitative research with interpretive paradigm and using case study approach. Data collection is done through interviews, document review and observation. The results of this research show that accrual-based accounting implementation at Hastinapura Provincial Government involves the integration of accrual-based accounting practices in the scope of policy setting, human resources development of financial management, information technology system, and also evaluation and control system. The impact of the implementation of accrual-based accounting at Hastinapura Provincial Government was not merely a technical accounting change, but also requires change in work patterns and ways of thinking of financial managers.

Public Relations of the Bandung Regency Government realizes that its area has a lot of potential for various local wisdom and has a heterogeneous society. This study aims to explore and analyze the values of local knowledge in developing public relations strategies in the government of Bandung Regency, West Java province. This study uses a constructivist interpretive (subjective) paradigm through a case study approach. The results showed that the Bandung Regency Government runs its government based on local wisdom. Bandung Regency Public Relations utilizes local insight and the region's potential to develop a public relations strategy to build and maintain a positive image of Bandung Regency. The impact of this research is expected to become a source of new scientific references in the development of public relations strategies in every region of Indonesia, which is very rich with various philosophies.Humas Pemerintah Kabupaten Bandung menyadari wilayahnya memiliki banyak potensi kearifan lokal yang beragam, serta memiliki masyarakatnya yang heterogen. Penelitian ini bertujuan menggali dan menganalisis nilai-nilai kearifan lokal dalam pengembangan strategi kehumasan di pemerintahan Kabupaten Bandung provinsi Jawa Barat.  Penelitian ini menggunakan paradigma interpretif (subjektif) konstruktivis melalui pendekatan studi kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Pemerintah Kabupaten (Pemkab) Bandung menjalankan pemerintahannya berlandaskan pada kearifal lokal. Humas Pemkab Bandung memanfaatkan kearifan lokal dan potensi wilayahnya untuk mengembangkan strategi humas dalam membangun dan mempertahankan citra positif Kabupaten Bandung.Dampak penelitian ini diharapkan menjadi sumber rujukan ilmiah baru dalam pengembangan strategi kehumasan di setiap daerah Indonesia yang sangat kaya dengan beragam filosofi.

A poluição do ar é influenciada por fatores naturais e antropogênicos. Quatro pontos de monitoramento (veicular, comercial, residencial e background urbano (BGU))da poluição do ar em São Paulo foram avaliados durante 16 anos, revelando diferenças significativas devidoao uso do solo em todas as escalas temporais. Na escala diurna, as concentrações de poluentes primários são duas vezes mais altas nos pontos veicular e residencial do que no ponto BGU, onde a concentração de ozonio (O3) é 50% mais alta. Na escala sazonal, as concentrações de monóxido de carbono(CO) variaram em 80% devido ao uso do solo, e 55% pela sazonalidade.As variações sazonais ede uso do solo exercem impactos similares nas concentrações de O3 e monóxido de nitrogênio (NO). Para o material particulado grosso (MP10) e o dióxido de nitrogênio(NO2), as variações sazonais são mais intensas do que as por uso do solo. Na série temporal de 16 anos, o ponto BGU apresentou correlações mais fortes e significativas entre a média mensal de ondas longas (ROL) e o O3 (0,48) e o MP10 (0,37), comparadas ao ponto veicular (0,33 e 0,22, respectivamente). Estes resultados confirmam que o uso do solo urbano tem um papel significativo na concentração de poluentes em todas as escalas de análise, embora a sua influência se torne menos pronunciada em escalas maiores, conforme a qualidade do ar transita de um sistema antropogênico para um sistema natural. Isto poderá auxiliar decisões sobre políticas públicas em megacidades envolvendo a modificação do uso do solo.

The impact of environmental regulation has been an important topic. Based on the Chinese Custom Database and China City Statistical Yearbook, this paper investigates the effect of environmental regulation on export values and explores potential mechanisms and heterogeneous effects. Taking advantage of China’s first comprehensive air pollution prevention and control plan, the Air Pollution Control in Key Zones policy, as a quasi-natural experiment, we employ the difference-in-differences method to examine the causal relationship between environmental regulation and exports. We find the statistically significant and negative effect of environmental regulation on exports at the city level. Moreover, we find that the potential mechanism is the change in export values caused by firm entry and exit, especially by exiters, rather than the change in the number of exporting firms in the city caused by firm entry and exit. In addition, we find the heterogeneous effects of environmental regulation based on the differences of environmental policy across cities and the Broad Economic Categories classification.
