Sustainability Intelligence (SI): A Journey, Not a Destination
No full textThis article, Sustainability Intelligence (SI): A Journey, Not a Destination – A Response to Professor Gail A. Rowntree, addresses the evolving nature of sustainability in organizations. The author, Gurpreet Singh, PhD Candidate at Buckinghamshire New University, responds to a key question posed by Professor Rowntree at the BNU Research and Enterprise Conference 2024: "When is an organization truly sustainable?" Singh argues that sustainability is not a finite goal but an ongoing system of continuous learning, reflection, and adaptation, rooted in systemic thinking. Using the SINGH (Synthesis in Navigation Gathering Holistic view) framework, the article discusses how organizations can embed sustainability into their business models and decision-making processes to navigate complex challenges. This response highlights the importance of adopting a mindset that views sustainability as an iterative process rather than a fixed destination

Stable and efficient Li-ion battery anodes prepared from polymer-derived silicon oxycarbide-carbon nanotube shell/core composites
No full textWe demonstrate synthesis and electrochemical performance of polymer-derived silicon oxycarbide-carbon nanotube (SiOC-CNT) composites as a stable lithium intercalation material for secondary battery applications. Composite synthesis was achieved through controlled thermal decomposition of 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl 1,3,5,7-tetravinyl cyclotetrasiloxane (TTCS) precursor on carbon nanotubes surfaces that resulted in formation of shell/core type ceramic SiOC-CNT architecture. Li-ion battery anode (prepared at a loading of~ 1.0 mg cmˉ²) showed stable charge capacity of 686 mAh gˉ¹ even after 40 cycles. The average coulombic efficiency (excluding the first cycle loss) was 99.6 %. Further, the post electrochemical imaging of the dissembled cells showed no apparent damage to the anode surface, highlighting improved chemical and mechanical stability of these composites. Similar trend was observed in the rate capability tests, where the SiOC-CNT anode (with 5 wt.% loading in TTCS) again showed stable performance, completely recovering the first cycle capacity of ~ 750 mAh gˉ¹ when the current density was brought back to 50 mA gˉ¹ after cycling at higher current densities
Farmers' income and food security under contemporary policy regime in India : Insights from Punjab
No full textIt has been well argued that the declining viability in the agriculture sector is creating conditions of distress and crisis. Despite this, the agriculture sector has not received adequate public policy attention from the perspective of food security and farmers’ income in the country. Public policy framework may transform the growth of the sector which may ultimately influence farmers’ income as well as food security of the country. Therefore, it is important to understand the current challenges of public policy interventions for the sector. In this regard, this chapter attempts the following questions: What are the existing trends of public expenditure towards agriculture and allied sectors in India and Punjab in particular? What would be the possible implications of recent patterns of public expenditure on food security and farmers’ income? Lastly, it recommends to promote a progressive fiscal approach for the sector with adequate attention on public goods for long-term and sustained growth for small-holding farming
