“…Researchers in various parts of the world have conducted research (e.g., Ulcak and Kassouri, 2020 ;Feist, et al, 2020;and Rehman, et al, 2020) to address the interaction between carbon dioxide and economic progress. In conclusion, it was found that strict environmental regulatory policies, which include environmental taxes, are not sufficient to reduce carbon values [49][50][51]. An internal initiative of each participating element in emission production is required, based on its own beliefs.…”

Despite the unbounded and undeniable advantages of manufacturing, affiliated negative externalities, such as environmental pollution, cannot be overlooked. Our article aims to focus on the current interdependence between the selected economic and environmental aspects in related manufacturing enterprises in Slovakia. We focused on analysing the relationship between carbon monoxide emissions from the largest polluters of the Slovak Republic and relevant sales. The data were taken from 83 enterprises from the Slovak Republic. Environmental and economic data were comprehensive during 2014–2019; therefore, this paper focuses on this period. Among the substantial results, we identified that carbon monoxide production from Slovak production companies was almost unchanged from 2014 to 2019, with only minimal deviations. Based on the results, we created an environmental ratio indicator as an appropriate tool for managers for their decision-making process to achieve the enterprise’s sustainability goals.

“…This requires methods that act as "boundary objects" (Ansell and Gash, 2018, p. 23) capable of fostering a collective process of sensemaking (Weick, 1995) that may help stakeholders disentangle the different perspectives so as to help them develop an interpretative scheme of the causal structure underlying the dynamic and complex problem at hand (Freeman, 2008;Hall, 1993). Specifically, if the challenge for policymakers is understanding how human activities cause disruption and disturbance in several ecosystems (Feist et al, 2020;Meadows et al, 1972Meadows et al, , 1974Welsh, 2010), the support provided by a facilitator is a vehicle to foster policy learning. Such methodological support may challenge decision-makers mental models, whose "probabilistic" cognitive heuristics (Kleinmuntz, 1985) is inadequate when uncertainty conditions far exceed their operationalization capacity (Simon, 1947).…”

Purpose This study aims to illustrate how collaborative platforms may leverage active community for climate change adaptation to implement biodiversity preservation policies. Design/methodology/approach This study adopts the Dynamic Performance Governance methodological framework to analyze the causal relationships affecting biodiversity preservation policy outcomes. Findings Active community reduces harmful factors for biodiversity (i.e. biological threats and anthropogenic pressure), limiting the risk of extinction of perennial plants. Stakeholders’ prior knowledge is an enabling condition of climate adaptation processes as it triggers the adoption of prescriptions and cultural changes in a community. Practical implications The study provides methodological guidance to define measures to deliver material information to support environmental performance governance. It elaborates an inventory of short- and long-term performance indicators integrating natural-science targets into accounting measures that can support policymakers operating in other contexts to implement climate change adaptation policies. Social implications As a response to the study findings, social implications provide insights into how active community in collaborative platforms for climate change may support stakeholders to address natural resources imbalances, define strategies to share the burden among them and intervene on multiple policy domains (e.g. financial, environmental and social). Originality/value Climate change adaptation challenges are conceptualized as “super wicked problems,” and the collaborative platforms designed to address them are rendered as complex adaptive systems. This makes the paper go beyond traditional environmental governance, demonstrating that stakeholders’ interactions within collaborative platforms harness active community specialized knowledge.

“…A second common rationale is educational in nature. Through external engagements, cities can both educate the public about the complexities of climate change and learn about external groups' perspectives on the threats of, and potential solutions to, climate change (Feist et al, 2020).…”

This study examines the development of collaborative governance regimes (CGRs) to solve the pressing issues of climate change between municipalities and Indigenous Peoples in present day Ontario, Canada. Drawing on a survey of Ontario municipalities and key informant interviews with municipal public servants, the article applies an anticolonial informed integrative framework of collaborative governance to examine the barriers and facilitators to those engagements. The analysis that follows draws on lessons learned to identify recommended practices for municipal staff moving forward, followed by the conclusion.
