Green real estate is a new form of development that seeks to reduce the negative impact of real estate construction on the environment and society. It offers various forms of environmental and social utility and also bears higher construction costs. Residents’ satisfaction and willingness to pay (WTP) are therefore of great significance for the progress of green real estate. However, residents’ satisfaction with green residential areas and its correlation with WTP has been insufficiently researched. This study draws on face-to-face interviews conducted with 614 households in Qingtangwan (an exemplary green real estate project in Beijing) to extract information about residents’ satisfaction and WTP. With regard to satisfaction, it identifies five main components, specifically the operation and maintenance of residential areas, indoor and outdoor comfort, building quality, sustainable community attachment, and public facility accessibility (this last category had lower satisfaction). In terms of WTP, residents’ mean WTP was found to be CHY 204.23 per month, which is approximately USD 31.19. In addition to the bid value, the indoor and outdoor comfort, building quality, sense of community, and public facility accessibility were all found to be significantly related to residents’ WTP. Relevant policy recommendations for promoting this development mode included the establishment of public funds, the regular collection and disclosure of information about residents’ satisfaction, phased rent increases, and the enhancement of community cultural construction.

Historic centers have become first-line tourist destinations. In order to achieve sustainable development, it is essential to get to know the opinions of the host community on the impact of tourism, the positives, as well as the negatives. This paper aims to understand the residents’ opinions and perceptions of destinations as the historic cities. This research looks into the residents’ opinions on the impact of tourism in the historic city of Toledo, Spain. The results of a quantitative survey among 442 residents in the city of Toledo are presented. The study is a revision of the literature and analysis and explanation of an empiric study’s results. Descriptive statistics have been used, as well as factor analysis and non-parametric tests to analyze data. The main results point out that residents have a positive vision of tourism development, rather than negative. The economic importance of tourism and its ability to create jobs stand out. However, they also think that the historic center is being turned into a museum for tourists. Analyzing their opinions according to certain demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, some major differences come up, such as that the inhabitants of residential areas have a more positive opinion than those who live in the historic center. Understanding the perspective of the residents can help the managers and planners of the tourism in the city to play down the potential negative impact of tourism and to achieve support from the host community in regards to tourism.

Urban sprawl is a global phenomenon in the contemporary era. It is mostly taking place in the less developed countries due to natural increase and consistent movement of people into the mega cities and large urban centers. The phenomenon has globally gained attention from diverse researchers in the field of urban geography, environmental studies, city and region planning in view of its significant influence on the urban environment. However, the effect of sprawl on urban livability and economy in Nigerian cities is scarcely investigated especially in Northern Nigeria. This research explores the social and economic effects of urban sprawl in Kaduna metropolis. Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) Technologies were applied for the analysis. The study found that Kaduna metropolis has experienced a progressive increase in the built-up area; in 2006 it had an aerial coverage of 13,980 hectares, a rise of 107.91% from 2001 aerial coverage of 6724 hectares. In 2012, the city had an aerial coverage of 15,808 hectares, an increase of 13.08% from 2006. Conversely, there has been a remarkable decrease in percentage of vegetation (1,458 hectares) and agricultural (11,739 hectares) land areas. In turn, such changes has adversely affected urban facilities or utilities such as pipe-borne water, electricity, health facilities, schools, security, transportation, wastewater infrastructures and fire safety services, which has become overstressed. Economic crisis has manifested in the rise of unemployment and escalating number of urban poor. Residential land use has encroached into open spaces while commercial activities overrun residential areas. Increase in distance and journey time make travel cost unbearable to the common man. These and social fragmentation retard livability in the city. Thus calls for a balance sustainable development in Kaduna metropolis and effective management of urban growth by the Kaduna Capital Development Board Authority. In due course, smart growth policy, growth management, urban containment, effective land use planning and public facility adequacy have been recommended to foster viable urban growth in Kaduna city and elsewhere.

Regional industrial restructuring has been one of the major items in the transformation of economic development mode. An exploration was made into the influence of tax arrangement on the regional industrial structure by setting up a panel data econometric model based on the evaluation and analysis of the regional industrial structure in China. It was shown that tax arrangement influenced the regional industrial restructuring in terms of three aspects. Microlevel: the turnover tax and income tax appeared with a U-path of influence on upgrading of the industrial structure while appearing with an inverted U-path of influence on rationalization of the industrial structure. In addition, the levy of resource tax had a negative impact on both upgrading and rationalization of the industrial structure. Mesolevel: taxation in the secondary and tertiary industries appeared with a U-path of influence on upgrading of the industrial structure. An increase of taxation in the secondary industry had a negative impact on rationalization of the industrial structure. The taxation in the tertiary industry appeared with an inverted U-path of influence on rationalization of the industrial structure. Macrolevel: the macrotax burden had a U-path of influence on both upgrading and rationalization of the industrial structure.

The relevance of the research is the need to recultivate the waste from the enrichment of gold-bearing ores that lie in the immediate vicinity of the residential areas of Baley city, which have a negative impact on the environmental situation in it, as well as to develop a technological approach to the extraction of gold and silver. The purpose of the study is to study the material composition and develop a technology for extracting precious metals. The object of the study is the stale tailings of the ZIF-1 plant “Baleizoloto”. The subject of the study is mineral composition of stale tailings, content of useful components and their extraction technology, the method and methodology presented by mineralogical and chemical analyses of enrichment tailings. Results. The analysis of the tailings dumps’ state of the gold recovery factories of the Baleizoloto plant was carried out. The contents of gold and other chemical elements, among which arsenic, zinc, copper, antimony, and lead predominate, were determined. The gold content prevails in the stale tailings of the ZIF-1 factory, which processed the ores of the Baley deposit, and is in the range of 1.09-1.37 g / t, on average – 1.17 g/t. This determines the prospects for their primary processing. The gold in the clay-sand fraction of the stale tailings is mainly found in thin accretions with quartz, carbonates, pyrite, arsenopyrite, sulfosols, and tellurides. The field of application is processing of technogenic raw materials. Conclusions. It was determined that the sizes of gold inclusions are in the range of 0.7-0.03 mm, the gold penetration varies from 63 to 91.15, and on average is 82.13; the main impurity in gold is silver with a content of 8.85-37%; the average silver content in the tailings of the ZIF-1 factory is 1.85 g/t; the recommended technological scheme for processing stale tailings of ZIF-1 of the Baleizoloto plant has been developed, including the following operations: photoelectron-activation preparation, pelletizing with active solution, heap leaching, two-stage sorption with bubbling with ozone

Green Productivity

Apart from promoting social-economic development and increasing social employment, the real estate industry in China has also brought up problems such as high energy consumption and high emissions. Scholars now focus more on energy conservation, emission reduction and sustainable development of real estate companies in their current research. The data used by this paper are three-year panel data from 2015 to 2018, with observations from 15 representative real estate companies. CO2 and green credit index are introduced as the undesirable output and the green output of real estate companies respectively. First, with the DEA model and the Malmquist index model, this paper evaluates the green productivity of real estate companies statically and dynamically. The Tobit model is then employed by the author to analyze factors that may affect green productivity. Our results indicate that (1) the green productivities of 15 Chinese real estate companies have improved by various degrees. The average green productivity rises from 0.701 in 2015 to 0.849 in 2018, indicating that the energy utilization rate of enterprises has gradually increased. From the calculation and decomposition of the Malmquist total factor productivity index, we know that technological progress is vital in improving the green productivity of real estate companies. (2) As for the influencing factors, the green productivity is positively related to factors such as policy compliance indicator P, environmental responsibility commitment indicator R, indicator of green innovation capability I, and indicator of green development information disclosure M. The asset-liability ratio on the contrary has a negative impact on green productivity. It’s worth to point out that the green innovation index and green productivity is significantly correlated and the correlation coefficient can be up to 0.636, which implies that the key to improving green productivity is to increase research and development investment.
