Effects of corporate social responsibility considering emission restrictions

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated firm's corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices by taking emission restriction into account with game theory model and found that the optimal level of social concern under the status that CSR firm aims to achieve maximum profits is lower than that under the condition the CSR firms aim to obtain maximum social welfare.

Emission Estimates and Trends (1990-2000) for Megacity Delhi and Implications

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive emission inventory for megacity Delhi, India, for the period 1990-2000 has been developed in support of air quality, atmospheric chemistry and climate studies, and it appears that SO2 and total suspended particles (TSP) are largely emitted by thermal power plants (∼68% and ∼80%, respectively), while the transport sector contributes most to NOx, CO and nonmethane volatile organic compound (NMVOC) emissions (>80%).
