Direct human health risks of increased atmospheric carbon dioxide
Tyler Jacobson,Jasdeep S. Kler,Michael T. Hernke,Rudolf K. Braun,Keith C. Meyer,William E. Funk +5 more
TL;DR: Preliminary evidence indicates potential health risks at CO2 exposures as low as 1,000 ppm—a threshold that is already exceeded in many indoor environments with increased room occupancy and reduced building ventilation rates, and equivalent to some estimates for urban outdoor air concentrations before 2100.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Triple Bottom Line: A Critical Review from a Transdisciplinary Perspective
Ozgur Isil,Michael T. Hernke +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use a sentiment analysis to show that the extant literature views the triple bottom line favorably and uncritically, with only 8% of academic studies invoking the term negatively, and employ a transdisciplinary comparative analysis to contrast these assumptions with two ecological perspectives: strong sustainability and nested hierarchy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Benefits Organizations Pursue when Seeking Competitive Advantage by Improving Environmental Performance
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce a typology of strategic benefits related to competitive advantage that are enabled by improved environmental performance, and illustrate how organizations embed industrial ecology concepts and methods into systems to generate capabilities that deliver these benefits and configure them for competitive advantage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainability, Health and Precautionary Perspectives on Lawn Pesticides, and Alternatives
Michael T. Hernke,Rian J. Podein +1 more
TL;DR: This article considers health concerns associated with lawn pesticide use and potential policy actions to address those concerns, and considers how a precautionary approach complements a sustainability perspective and detailed scientific findings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrating sustainability and health care.
Rian J. Podein,Michael T. Hernke +1 more
TL;DR: Health professionals, including primary care providers, are poised to serve as models for sustainability and to facilitate the necessary transformation toward more sustainable practices.
