Kabupaten Natuna sebagai daerah pulau-pulau kecil memiliki sumber daya alam yang besar khususnya perikanan. Sektor perikanan diharapkan dapat menjadi motor penggerak bagi pengembangan wilayah Kabupaten Natuna. Salah satu alternatif menggerakkan dan memacu pembangunan wilayah adalah menentukan pusat pertumbuhan ekonomi dan meningkatkan keterkaitan antar sektor. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tingkat perkembangan wilayah berdasarkan kelengkapan infrastruktur wilayah, menganalisis keterkaitan ke belakang dan ke depan (backward and forward linkages) sektor perikanan dan menganalisis seberapa besar peranan sektor perikanan terhadap perekonomian Kabupaten Natuna. Analisis data yang digunakan adalah Skalogram dan Input-Output (I-O). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kecamatan yang berpotensi sebagai pusat pertumbuhan ekonomi adalah Kecamatan Bunguran Timur dan Pulau Tiga. Sektor industri pengolahan, penyediaan akomodasi dan makan minum, transportasi dan pergudangan, jasa keuangan dan asuransi, dan real estate dan jasa perusahaan termasuk ke dalam sektor unggulan karena memiliki daya penyebaran ke belakang dan daya kepekaan terhadap permintaan akhir sektor-sektor perekonomian. Sementara sektor perikanan belum menjadi sektor unggulan yang dapat menjadi penggerak secara langsung perekonomian di Kabupaten Natuna. Upaya untuk mendorong keterkaitan antar sektor perikanan dengan sektor perekonomian wilayah dengan pengembangan industri hilir yang memanfaatkan output kegiatan perikanan sebagai bahan baku produksinya baik secara langsung maupun tidak langsung dan difokuskan pada lokasi yang berpotensi sebagai pusat pertumbuhan Tittle: Role of Fisheries Sector to Economy of the Natuna RegencyNatuna Regency is a potential area with great amount of fisheries resources. Its fisheries resources are expected to encourage the development within the regency. The establisment of economic growth center and increased linkages among sectors were suggested to accelerate the regional development. This study aims to analyze the level of regional development based on the completeness of regional infrastructure, to analyze the backward and forward linkages of the fisheries sector and to measure the role of fisheries in economy of Natuna Regency. Scalogram and Input-Output were used for data analysis. The results suggested two districts as a center of economic growth, they are Bunguran Timur District and Pulau Tiga. Instead of fisheries sector,  the manufacturing, accommodation, food and beverage, transportation, warehousing, financial and insurance services, real estate and company services were the leading sectors due to their backward deployment and sensitivity to the final demands of the economic sectors. Efforts to encourage linkages between fisheries and other regional economic sector are necessary through the development of downstream industries. It includes the directly and indirectly use of fisheries outputs as raw material for production in the focus area of centers of growth

As water serves as a necessary and often irreplaceable input in a range of goods and services, a disruption in water supply can cause lost production and sales for businesses. Thus, large benefits may be generated by reducing the risk of water disruptions. To enable selection of economically viable risk mitigation measures, the investment costs should be weighed against the benefits of risk mitigation. Consequently, quantitative estimates of the consequences of disruptions need to be available. However, despite the importance of water to businesses, the literature on their financial losses due to short and long-term water disruptions is still scarce. The aim of this paper is to estimate time-dependent water supply resiliency factors for economic sectors, i.e., a metric focusing on the level of output that businesses can uphold during a disruption, to contribute to better decision support for water supply planning and risk management. An online survey was used to gather data from 1405 companies in Sweden on consequences of complete and unplanned water supply outages. Results show that Food and beverage Manufacturing and Accommodation and food services are the two most severely affected sectors over all analyzed disruption durations.

The growing number of children who are obese or overweight in certain countries or geographical areas is a fact, as evidenced by the continuous studies and reports on the subject, endorsed or carried out by the World Health Organisation and independent research. In this context, food and beverage advertising can contribute to this. The main objective of this research is to evaluate compliance with the Food and Drink Advertising Code for Children (PAOS Code) in Spain and its relationship with nutritional habits on television, specifically on channels aimed at children. The methodology is therefore mixed: on the one hand, a qualitative technique based on discourse analysis and, on the other, a quantitative technique based on the content analysis of the advertising broadcast for seven consecutive days on three specialised channels and two generalist channels on Spanish television. The results reveal a systematic noncompliance with this code, which translates into inadequate eating habits among children. The immediate conclusion is that 9 out of 10 parts of food and drink advertising do not comply with any of the rules of the PAOS Code and that self-regulation by the advertising companies is negligible and insufficient.

This paper discusses the topical issue which examines the development of CO2 emissions in individual countries of the European Union (EU28) for the period between 2000 and 2017. Carbon footprint is monitored in four basic economic sectors of the EU28 countries—energy, other industries, agriculture, and waste management. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a structural analysis of the percentage contribution of individual sectors while determining the average conversion of emissions in tonnes per capita for individual countries, subsequently identifying the tendencies in the development of the detected rates. A cluster analysis for the EU28 that demonstrate similar carbon footprint values in the examined economic areas is conducted for the findings. The partial aim of the paper is to perform a comparison of the monitored countries and detect whether the differences between those striving for decarbonisation are diminishing. The energy industry is the most significant contributor to emission levels. The index analysis indicates that the level of emissions throughout the EU28 in all the monitored sectors has decreased, predominantly in waste management (by 40%,) which is followed by industry (17%), energy (by 16.2%), and agriculture (by 5%). The cluster analysis conducted for 2000 and 2017 has confirmed the convergence of the identified groups of the EU28. Individual clusters of the countries thus display minor differences and converge in general.

Complexity is generally perceived to be a desirable attribute as far as the design/delivery of food and beverage experiences is concerned. However, that said, there are many different kinds of complexity, or at least people use the term when talking about quite different things, and not all of them are relevant to the design of food and drink experiences nor are they all necessarily perceptible within the tasting experience (either in the moment or over time). Consequently, the consumer often needs to infer the complexity of a tasting experience that is unlikely to be perceptible (in its entirety) in the moment. This paper outlines a number of different routes by which the chef, mixologist, and/or blender can both design and signal the complexity in the tasting experience.

Zimbabwe’s urban areas are choking under the weight of over-crowdedness amidstdilapidated infrastructure that is characterised by constant service failure. The water andsewer systems of the country’s major urban centres are on the verge of collapse, thusputting millions of people in danger of consuming contaminated water, including thatfrom underground sources. Waste management and water supply problems manifestthemselves as challenges bedevilling many an urban area in the country. The quality andquantity of water supplied in Zimbabwe’s urban centres has plummeted in recent yearsand has assumed crisis proportions owing to the difficult economic situation and otherchallenges faced by the country. The situation is desperate and dire, as is evidenced by thepoor quality of delivered water, severe water rationing and the outbreak of water-bornediseases in the urban areas dotted across the country. The situation demands and dictatesthat solutions be proffered as a matter of urgency.The recent outbreak of epidemics hasbeen blamed on lack of access to safe water and poor sanitation, two crucial factors incontrolling the spread of diseases. An overly bureaucratic environment, where decisionsand processes take longer, makes life complicated for poor urban residents. Such ascenario motivated the researchers to examine the problem with a view to suggest waysand means of intervening to mitigate and resolve the problem. It emerged from thefindings that the problem is multifaceted in nature, hence a whole range of measures needto be adopted if a long-term solution is to be provided.
