Disaster Resilience and Human Settlements in the Anthropocene
2023
The chapter sets the context starting from the emerging perspectives on disaster resilience and human settlements in the larger context of the proposed new geological era of Anthropocene.

The chapter focuses on the interdisci-plinary nature of the ‘disaster resilience and human settlements’ theme in relation to the various global development agendas, including the Expanded Brown Agenda, the Hyogo Framework of Action, the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development,…
Carbon Emissions Announcements and Market Returns
2023
The paper investigates the impact of carbon emissions on stock price returns of European listed firms. This relationship is assessed across all three emissions scopes, as well as using expecta-tions to detect if future emissions impact contemporary returns. Our findings show that firms with higher expected future emissions deliver contemporary lower returns, after controlling for market capitalization, profit, and other known return predictors. This result is statistically sig-nificant in the post Paris Agreement period with a two to three years expectation on scope 2 emissions. However, there is marginal to no significant negative relationship between current emissions and current returns.…
Cambiamenti climatici e diritti umani. Il paradigma della Giustizia climatica e il ruolo delle climate litigations per la protezione dei diritti uman…
2021
In che misura i sempre più diffusi, pervasivi e drammatici impatti dei cambiamenti climatici, che interessano con geometrie variabili tutte le latitudini e longitudini del globo, mettono a rischio la tenuta del sistema dei diritti umani universalmente riconosciuti? La ricerca si pone l'obiettivo di rispondere a tale quesito ragionando su quali sfide essi pongano e su quali siano, nell'attuale panorama, gli strumenti giuridici utili a garantire la piena tutela dei diritti fondamentali nel nuovo contesto clima- alterato. La fondatezza e l’attendibilità delle ricerche scientifiche che avvalorano l’esistenza del cambiamento climatico antropogenico si pongono come presupposto fattuale dell'inter…
