Today, the increasing use of technology and the industrial revolution are affecting the economy and the environment, such as the development of economies and the increase of the ecological footprint (EFP). This study focuses on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) to assess the impact of information and communication technologies (ICTs), green energy (renewable energy and electric power consumption), and economic activities (total factor productivity: TFP) on the environmental quality (EFP) by applying the Johansen cointegration technique and vector error correction method (VECM). Our empirical investigation shows a long-run negative and significant association between renewable energy, electricity consumption, technology trade, TFP, and EFP. The results also show that there is a negative and significant link between ICT and EFP in the short-run. The results of this research have potential importance for policymakers to address economic activities, green energy, and investment in ICTs and environmental issues simultaneously in the context of the KSA.

This paper inquires: can sustainable urbanization be realized in Saudi Arabian cities? It addresses this question by (i) analyzing the relationship between sustainable development and urbanization in the Global South, (ii) examining the urbanization–urban planning collision in Saudi Arabian cities, and (iii) assessing the situational impediments to and enablers of sustainable urbanization in Saudi Arabia. Using critical literature review, findings show that rapid urbanization, amidst urban planning inadequacy, fundamentally remains a threat to sustainable urbanization in Global South countries. In addition, urbanization in Saudi Arabian cities is characterized by socio-spatial, land use planning and environmental vulnerabilities, producing more costs than benefits. A key contribution from this paper relates to the embeddedness of socio-spatial factors and land use planning systems in the production of environmental vulnerabilities. The paper deeply engaged with sustainable urbanization from an urban planning perspective in the Arabian context to demonstrate the limited framing of sustainable development. Recommendations to strengthen resilience, inclusiveness, and sustainable development are proffered.

There is a genuine need to examine stakeholders’ perception of biodiversity conservation and tourism development due to overlapping roles and conflicting priorities among key governmental agencies in Saudi Arabia. The need to understand the role of each stakeholder group will assist to support policy formulation and implementation, along with effective practices. Within this context, the purpose of this study was to examine stakeholder perspectives towards National Parks and Protected Areas in Saudi Arabia. Qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews from 11 stakeholders’ representative of public, private, and non-governmental organizations from the tourism and conservation community. Findings revealed four main themes—tourism development, management issues, development challenges, and policy concerns. In addition, multiple sub-themes within each were further categorized. Overall, findings highlight the need to form a foundation for sustainable tourism development that aims to conserve biodiversity and provide opportunities for local communities to ensure economic growth. Implications for development in National Parks and Protected Areas in Saudi Arabia are also noted.

Public awareness on the concepts of sustainable practices has been the main challenge in the way of better, healthier, affordable and environmentally sound urban projects. Lack of public awareness fueled by the lack of interest by stakeholders developed a vicious cycle, hence delaying the gears of the sustainable development in Saudi Arabia. In the other hand, societies that adopt the sustainability concepts succeed in many ways to accomplish their national development plans. This paper will focus on the current status of the public awareness levels after an initial study that showed that more than 52 percent of the sample from Saudi public doesn’t know what is the meaning of sustainable cities. The research method will be of a qualitative nature utilizing on-line surveys to collect responses from a wide range of the Saudi society. The outcomes show that in the past five years (2010-2015), the level of awareness has increased but at a discouraging rate. It is the main recommendation of this paper to further increase the collaborative efforts from all Saudi stakeholders; authorities, universities and civil society following the new 2030 Saudi vision to help raising the public awareness on the importance of leading and applying the core means of sustainability within their cities in design, construction and life style itself while Saudi Arabia is undergoing huge development.

Previous studies have investigated the role of energy and green indicators in achieving sustainable economic growth for different economies. Despite numerous studies, the significance of blue indicators is still missing in the context of Saudi Arabia. However, the study attempts to examine the implications of blue factors, as well as energy and green factors, to achieve sustainable economic growth. Also, no study tests the significance of Vision 2030 in enhancing the impact of these factors on economic growth. Dividing data into pre and post-Vision 2030 can highlight the factors that need government attention. The study's findings confirm that Saudi Arabia can come to a course of sustainable economic growth by enhancing sea trade and tourism, which affirms the importance of blue economic factors. The study's outcomes are beneficial for policymakers to evaluate the directions of Vision 2030. The significance of blue factors is highlighted in the study results, which is a guideline for authorities to enhance the role of blue factors by putting effort and investment into these factors.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia covers an area of approximately 2 million km2 and is rich in natural resources that are necessary for industrial development. The estimated mineral wealth beneath the Kingdom’s soil is approximately USD 1.33 trillion, as reported by the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources. The Kingdom’s vision for 2030 is to develop the mining sector to become the third pillar of the domestic economy. Therefore, exploration and mining activities are expected to accelerate over the next decade, which will lead to increased waste production. New executive regulations issued in January 2021 contain several sustainable elements related to the environment, social responsibility, and occupational health and safety. Therefore, this study aims to promote an example of sustainable mining activities in the Kingdom that could be adapted to meet the regulatory requirements. Cemented paste backfill samples of varying composition were made with waste materials from a Saudi copper mine for re-injection into underground mining cavities to minimize waste exposure to the environment. The samples were tested for unconfined compressive strength (UCS) after 7, 14, 28, 56, and 90 days of curing. Results from a statistically designed experiment technique show that the samples developed sufficient strength to be used in mine backfilling applications. Strong negative relationships were detected between the UCS and the water-to-binder ratio. There is strong potential for mine backfill technology to be applied to a wide range of Saudi Arabian mines to enhance the sustainability of the mining sector.

An empirical study of the sectoral diversification of the Saudi Arabian economy reveals that this economy is fast diversifying into non‐oil sector activity. Such a transformation is carrying with it encouraging impacts on productivity growth, economic efficiency and social well‐being. There is also found to occur all‐round intersectoral linkages in the economy. These two patterns of economic change together define balanced and sustainable development for Saudi Arabia in the years ahead. The policy implications of non‐oil sector diversification and intersectoral complementarity and their effects on realizing sustainable self‐reliant development are important conclusions of this paper.

Saudi Arabia has recently begun to implement its General Environmental Regulations. The main purpose is to ensure that environmental considerations are taken into account at all levels of planning with an emphasis on incorporating EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) into development activities. However, there is a need to develop a broad framework of SEA (Strategic Environmental Assessment) for the proper integration of sustainability into decision‐making processes. This paper reviews and discusses a framework for ensuring sustainability in Saudi Arabia, particularly at the local level. The paper develops guidelines and a framework for implementing the principles of sustainability in Saudi municipalities through SEA.

Investing in sustainable projects can help tackle the current sustainability challenges. Venture capital investments can contribute significantly to the growth of sustainable start-ups. Sustainable venture capital (SVC) research is just emerging. This paper identifies enablers for sustainable venture capital investments in Saudi Arabia taking into account different stakeholders and firm’s tangible and intangible resources. Using perspectives from venture capital experts in Saudi Arabia and the grey-based Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) method, this study pinpoints the most critical enablers and investigates their causal and effect interconnections. The methodological process consists of reviewing the SVC literature and consulting the experts to identify the SVC enablers, creating a questionnaire, acquiring the answers from four experts, analyzing the data with grey-based DEMATEL and performing a sensitivity analysis. The government use of international standards, policies and regulations for sustainable investments, the commitment of the venture capitalists to sustainability and their deep understanding of sustainable business models are the most influential enablers. The paper concludes with implications for different actors, limitations and prospective directions for the sustainable venture capital research.

Vision 2030 is a social and economic strategic program by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) aimed at diversifying the nation's economy and stimulating numerous changes in its social and economic sectors, including in healthcare. Sustainable Development (SD) 2030 is a global consensual agreement among nation-states to build a sustainable, desirable and progressively interrelated world. The Saudi government highlighted Vision 2030 to improve population health and the world body reiterated that SD 2030 will contribute to "healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages." This article analyzes the state capacity in revitalizing the healthcare system in Saudi Arabia with the context of Vision 2030 and SD 2030. Scoping reviews and thematic data analysis techniques were used as a method of this study. The realization of Vision 2030 is essential for the fulfilment of the SD Goals 2030. The government has realigned its national programs, plans and strategies with global development targets, indicators, and goals to achieve the SD Goals. Achieving SD 2030 is seen as the main component of development for health. Prudent reforms should be taken to accommodate the goals and objectives of Vision 2030 and SD 2030. These measures will help strengthen governance and state capacity so as to ultimately revitalize the Saudi healthcare system and improve population health. Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 encourages the state to play a renewed role in development in light of the UN's declaration of the "right to development." While pursuing SD Goals, the state must create the necessary environment for sustaining capacity, need to improve service delivery by building cooperation and coordination among providers and interactions among groups to realize constructive roles and functions in maintaining state affairs, which ultimately enhances state capacity to revitalize healthcare system of Saudi Arabia.

Cities in developing countries are experiencing rapid and in many cases unsustainable growth. This paper analyses the importance of sustainable urban planning in the context of the capital city of Saudi Arabia, which is Riyadh. It provides a comprehensive review of the historical growth of the city and critically discusses its urban planning development phases, informed by strategies and schemes adopted during this development process. This critical review is based on a proposed framework of sustainable development that focuses on a number of core issues, including environmental, social, economic and urban planning. This proposed model is evaluated based on the opinion of 35 experts, who are familiar with the local context of Saudi Arabian cities, through the use of the Delphi Technique.

The research problem is; these rating systems cannot be applied in the context of Saudi Arabia without considering its local social and cultural aspects. The paper resulted as a reaction to the abbreviation of socio-cultural aspects in neighbourhood design approaches. The paper presents a set of design guidelines adjusted to fit the context of Jeddah City.

Sustainable housing implementation requires strong support from the public, government and the housing industry. Lack of public awareness and understanding of the language and the meaning of sustainable housing may cause lack of public support. Salama stated that sustainability or sustainable design is simply a rephrasing of some of the forgotten values of traditional architecture and urbanism(Salama 2007). This exploratory paper examines public awareness of sustainable housing in Saudi Arabia. In developing countries, like Saudi Arabia, which have been experiencing a rapid rate of urbanisation, sustainable concept intervention is essential due to the scarcity of resources (Reffat 2004a). Sustainable building methods include the full use of the site design, passive solar design, natural light and ventilation. This paper reports on an exploratory survey on understanding the potential of the implementation of sustainable housing in Saudi Arabia. The main problem is that more than half of respondents were not aware of sustainable housing. Thus, one of the recommendations from the survey is to educate the public by using local media to inform people of the benefits of sustainable implementation to both new and existing housing stock.

This paper describes the authors’ experience of constructing a 113 m2 solar pond at Umm Al-Qura University, Saudi Arabia. The work demonstrates the technical viability of solar pond technology in the Middle East. A sustainable system for heat extraction from the experimental pond was designed and implemented. A new scheme for the measurement of temperature throughout the pond was also introduced for the purpose of further enhancing performance. The aim of this research is to develop an operational protocol which achieves high levels of thermal and mechanical efficiency and within which salt is conserved by first concentrating the surface discharge of saline in an evaporation pond followed by its re-circulation to the base of the pond via a salt charger.

The aims of this paper are to review the current practices of car parking standards in the UK, the USA, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA); to draw the main lessons learned from experiences of the UK and the USA; and to suggest suitable improvements in the standards of car parking requirements in the KSA. The paper follows a comparative approach in reviewing car parking standard requirements according to different types of land use in the UK, the USA, and the KSA. The article illustrates that transportation planners in the UK and the USA use parking policies, especially the application of car parking standards, along with other planning and transport measures to promote sustainable transport choices, to reduce reliance on cars, and to reduce traffic and air pollution. Local authorities in the UK and the USA have moved from requiring minimum standards for car parking to maximum standards. The aim of maximum parking standards is to decrease the number of trips made by private cars whilst seeking to maintain and enhance the viability of economic centres and support sustainable development. In the KSA, authorities still adhere to minimum car parking standards. Moreover, the car parking requirements are not correlated with city zoning systems. The paper concludes with some thoughts on how to improve the current parking requirements in KSA cities.

In seeking to achieve economic diversification, Saudi Arabia faces challenges in transitioning from a rentier economy to a knowledge-based economy. In order to achieve this, a number of strategic plans have been adopted by the government to establish a sound knowledge management system that will benefit from foreign investments and the outcome of research and development activities in the country. This paper discusses the issues that hinder the country from reaching the level of economic diversification targeted by previous plans. It then presents the results of quantitative and qualitative analyses to identify the dimensions of governance that can help Saudi Arabia to build an effective knowledge management system as a means to achieve sustainable development. The study's findings highlight the importance of enhancing public sector productivity, fighting corruption, and enabling rule-of-law systems as key factors in creating a quality knowledge management system in Saudi Arabia.

A knowledge-based economy is one of the vital components of modern economies. Growth in most of the economies of the world, and most developed economies in particular, are increasingly based on knowledge. In a knowledge-based economy, economic development is dependent on investments in education, learning and training, among others. Universities are today becoming aware of the essential role that higher education plays in the construction of knowledge-based economies. The kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) has adopted the drive toward a knowledge-based economy through focusing on the higher education sector. Saudi Universities are playing a pivotal role toward the Kingdom's transition into a knowledge-based economy and hence achieving economic growth and development. The purpose of this paper is to critically examine the important role that universities play in building a knowledge-based economy through innovation, research commercialization, and technology transfer as economic development policies. The role of universities in building a knowledge-based economy in Saudi Arabia is also investigated. The paper confirms that Saudi universities are considered as a very important entity in the aim for the Saudi economy to achieve sustainable growth and development.

Women's empowerment has been prioritised in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) recently, in line with the Saudi Vision 2030; albeit, women are still underrepresented in tourism industry. However, if robust women's empowerment is consolidated into planning and implementation processes, tourism can act as a vehicle for encouraging gender parity. This study examines the direct impact of women's empowerment (psychologically, politically, and socially) on sustainable tourism development (STD) and the indirect impact through tourism involvement. A total of 1000 women involved in the tourism industry in KSA filled out self-administrated questionnaires, analyzed using SPSS™ and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with AMOS. The results suggest that tourism involvement partially mediates the relationship between psychological and political empowerment and STD. Nonetheless, it fully mediates the relationship between social empowerment and STD. Several implications of the results for both policy-makers, tourism planners and tourism scholars are discussed.

Early debates on the sustainability of food-plating systems in hospitals have concentrated mostly on plate waste food served, but not eaten. This study aims to address the need for more comprehensive studies on sustainable food services systems by expanding the concept of plate waste, to that of tray waste (organic and inorganic materials), through a case study of a hospital in Saudi Arabia. Tray waste arising at the ward level was audited for three weeks, covering 939 meals. It was found that, on average, each patient threw away 0.41, 0.30, 0.12, and 0.02 kg of food, plastic, paper, and metal, respectively, each day. All this equated to 4831 tons of food, 3535 tons of plastic, 1414 tons of paper, and 235 tons of metal each year at hospitals across Saudi Arabia. As all of this waste ends up in landfills, without any form of recycling, this study proposes the need for a more comprehensive, political approach that unites all food system stakeholders around a shared vision of responsible consumption and sustainable development.

In recent years, the international community is struggling to achieve sustainable economic and environmental goals. Despite of the large literature, the impact of blue economy on sustainable growth and environment is missing, for the case of Saudi Arabia. The current study incorporates the energy, green, and blue indicators to examine the impact on sustainable goals of Saudi Arabia. For econometric estimations, we use the nonlinear ARDL approach to estimate the full sample and post-Vision 2030 sample. The findings confirm that blue economic activities are not mature enough to participate its role to achieve sustainable targets of Saudi Vision 2030. The outcomes of current study depict that blue indicators are neglected to attain sustainable economic and environmental goals. In view of econometric outcomes, we propose that Saudi Arabia have to emphasize on sea trade and ocean tourism. Moreover, the findings are useful to estimate the sustainable targets of Saudi Vision 2030.

Sustainable business model innovation (SBMI) has recently drawn great interest among academia and in practice. However, notwithstanding the surge in related academic and non-academic literature, a validated measurement scale for SBMI is not yet available. This study attempts to fill the gap by proposing a scale for SBMI, using an initial sample of 20 respondents (for qualitative enquiry), followed by a quantitative validation (using two sample sets of 130 and 200 SMEs from Saudi Arabia). The findings provided a 10-item scale, conceptualized under three factors, namely: sustainable value proportion innovation, sustainable value creation and delivery innovation, and sustainable value capture innovation. The study provides important implications for SME owners and managers, by highlighting that SBMI will result in enhanced SME performance as well as a competitive advantage.

Transit-oriented development (TOD) in Saudi Arabia is becoming a significant priority for the government and developers to create a sustainable and quality living environment. TOD is an integrated transport and urban planning method that aims to reduce car use and urban sprawl, increase the use of public transport, and enhance sustainable mobility. To meet the global goals as per the Paris Accord, Saudi Arabia’s policymakers must prioritize the integration of TOD in urban planning. This study was carried out with the main aim of identifying the environmental, social, and economic benefits of implementing TOD in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. A mixed-study research method was used, and data were collected using a questionnaire survey and semi-structured interviews. The quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS version 21, and qualitative data were analyzed using NVivo software. The findings of this study show that TOD in Riyadh City would positively impact economic, environmental, and social aspects. TOD would reduce travel time, allow its people to have an active lifestyle, and reduce congestion. TOD would help reduce mental health disorders and improve physical activity. TOD would positively impact the environment of Riyadh City and assist in reducing greenhouse gases. Overall, the study results provide a reliable perspective on the benefits of TOD. Most participants assumed that the implementation of TOD in Riyadh City would increase automobile mobility, provide more employment opportunities, and reduce travel time, positively impacting the environment and economy of Riyadh City.

Abstract For thousands of years mud houses have represented the practical wisdom and spirituality of people, particularly those of desert regions, who learned how to use local materials to build homes that fitted the environmental and cultural conditions, in which they lived. As a case study, the central region of Saudi Arabia exhibits a tradition of earth architecture that is unique in style, culture and sustainability. Aiming to contribute towards the local debate of the suitability of the traditional mud architecture for today's lifestyle of Saudis, this paper explores the sustainable nature of the traditional adobe architecture of this hot arid region from environmental, social and technical points of view.

Sustainability advocates for a universally shared common vision of progress towards a society that is just, safe and sustainable for humanity. Beyond environmental protection, the concept recognizes the urgent need to improve life quality through strategies that build socio-economic growth and address a wide range of cross cutting issues. While consensus abound that a more sustainable society serves everyone, opinions on what sustainability means and how it can be achieved are diverse. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), through the 2030 Vision and the 2020 National Transformation Program (NTP) outlines an agenda for a more balanced growth and socio-economic development. The extent to which the vision systematically aligns with sustainability principles, however, remains unexplored. This research is a maiden attempt to investigate how much sustainability substance is in the 2030 Vision and the NTP of Saudi Arabia. The Sustainable Society Index (SSI) has been employed to examine the 2030 Vision and the NTP to understand the Kingdom’s commitment to building resilient, inclusive and sustainable societies. The vision and NTP texts were matched against five broad measures and 22 sub-measures of the SSI to identity the points of convergence. While both the 2030 Vision and the NTP align with the SSI measures in some respect, the goals and objectives are, at best, a reflection of the needs, aspirations and context of Saudi Arabia. The paper concludes that the success of the 2030 Vision rests on the active involvement and empowerment of relevant stakeholders at all levels as well as the development of comprehensive assessment mechanisms based on which to measure progress towards sustainability.

This paper develops a macroeconomic framework for creating a competitive and sustainable Saudi Arabian economy, taking into account the interrelationships among social, environmental, and economic factors. The objective of the research is to build a model that will allow for evaluating the effects of a wide range of emissions abatement policies on economic growth and development. The research methodology is grounded in econometric modeling of the Saudi economy over the period 1980–2010. The estimated parameters of the model were used to project long-term gross domestic product (GDP) growth paths based on three environmental degradation abatement scenarios. The results suggest that the sustainability of economic growth in Saudi Arabia critically depends on aggressive emissions-reduction policies since policy scenarios corresponding to higher pollution cuts yielded higher, sustained long-term GDP. The results also broadly reject the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis, implying that a turning point...

Due to the wide-ranging development of data-oriented sustainable systems in the government and the public sectors, the development of such sustainable systems is replete with potential. The ultimate focus of developing these sustainable systems is to provide citizens with transparency, accountability, awareness as well as a single point of query for asking integrated and smart queries. In view of these benefits, the Saudi government has taken the initiative to publish and develop sustainable open data-oriented information systems. However some major challenges in the Saudi Government Open Data are that the (1) data are published and available in different formats such as Excel sheets, CSV files (Comma Separated Values), images, scanned documents and social media sources such as Twitter, (2) datasets from different government departments are not linked with each other or to existing datasets in Linked Open Data Cloud (even though they have strong links with each other), and (3) there is no SPARQL Endpoint that can be used to pose smart semantic-based queries to Saudi Government Data. This paper is part of an ongoing research project to present a framework that can be used to transfer the government data from different sources to RDF format. The framework can also be used to clean and classify/map the data according to the Saudi Government Ontology. We also describe our approach for semiautomatically linking Saudi Government Datasets with one another as well as with other existing open datasets, thus resulting in the Saudi Linked Open Government Data Cloud (SLOGDC). Finally, taking the topic “Public’s Response to Women’s Driving in Saudi Arabia” as a case study, we demonstrate the SLOGD SPARQL Endpoint as a data-oriented system by executing different queries and analyzing results of these queries. This work also contributes new insights into women’s driving in Saudi Arabia using the SLOGDC, thus suggesting the way forward in shaping policies for decision-making.

In recent years, policy experts have engaged in a spirited discussion over the relationship between environmental quality and energy use. This association is critical for the mitigation of climate change and achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Furthermore, current studies have not given enough consideration to this relation, notably in the case of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Therefore, this study examines the KSA case, focuses on the connection of industrialization, foreign direct investments, and technological innovation with carbon emissions intensity (CEI) by also considering urbanization and energy use, examines the period between 1991 and 2020, and uses quantile-on-quantile (QQ) regressionand quantile regression (QR) approaches for empirical examination. The empirical outcomes revealthat (i) urbanization and energy usehave an increasing impact on CEIin all quantiles; (ii) industrialization, foreign direct investments, and technological innovation have a generally decreasing impact on the CEI in most quantiles; (iii) power of the factors’ impact on the CEI change according to quantiles; (iv) the robustness the findings is also validated. Hence, theresults highlight the importance of quantile-based analysis and suggest that KSA authorities need to embrace environment-friendly policies while managing environmental pollution to develop industrialization level and technological innovation as well as increase foreign direct investments.

The paper explores Small and Medium Size Enterprises (SMEs) in Saudi Arabia within the context of environmental sustainability. The objective of the study is to examine whether SME’s sustainable marketing competitive advantage through environmental initiatives can positively associate to a firm’s environmental (green) best practices and stakeholder influences; similarly, it also identifies if best practices mediate environmental costs and competitive advantage. A sample of 181 responses are obtained and are analysed using factor analysis, multiple regression and their interaction effects. The findings show that the association between firms that have competitive advantage due to environmental initiatives were found to be significant for best practices and indirect stakeholder influences. Furthermore, the results identified that by using environmental best practices, SMEs can lower their environmental costs to gain marketing competitive advantage. These findings highlight the function of environmentalism and how it can influence practitioners.

ABSTRACT In Saudi Arabia, an array of diverse strategies has been applied in response to the adverse effects of urban sprawl. A review of the historical proliferation of these strategies indicates that although in the short term the strategies have achieved high-quality infrastructure in some parts of the major cities, longer-term prospects are less promising since numerous urban problems persist in these cities. Among these problems are uncontrolled developments in the fringes, inadequate urban services, spiralling land prices and construction costs, the proliferation of slums and degrading quality of the urban environment. This research focuses on urban growth management as an approach for sustainable communities. The study will then discuss urban growth management as a discipline that can empower Jeddah as one of the fastest Saudi major cities to generate better urban development strategies and policies for a new generation of communities. This research paper explores ways to manage Jeddah’s urban growth and new development. The objective is to generate new communities that offer higher standards of living while meeting the challenge inside the existing urban mass by providing the much-needed new policies to limit and control urban growth. It is, therefore, an absolute must begin revising our urban growth and spatial development policies and plans. New theories of urban growth, development and management must be carefully examined and studied, and solutions must be devised, sooner than later, to help promote achieving sustainable urban management in Saudi Arabia.

Sustainable building practices are a response to environmental issues. Businesses and industries are assessing how their activities affect the environment. The architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industries have significant impacts on the environment and economy, while the industry is considered one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and has, therefore, been highlighted by researchers as a key area of intervention with a great potential to reduce environmental impacts. This paper critically reviews and evaluates the current state of sustainable building certification systems with the purpose of having a good understanding of the status quo and possibilities for future directions in Saudi Arabia. It reviews the academic literature on Saudi Arabia’s green/sustainable building codes, standards, certification systems, methods and tools. It starts by addressing sustainability in the broadest sense. Then, it investigates sustainability strategies and evaluates the building certification systems in Saudi Arabia, followed by an introduction to the new practice of sustainable healthcare building assessment. Life cycle assessment (LCA) and building information modelling (BIM) techniques have also been investigated. The paper introduces the updated Saudi Building Code (SBC) with further evaluation of the Saudi Green Building Code (SBC 1001-CR). Finally, the paper clearly highlights the key role of sustainable building practices and the need to develop a certification system that considers the new trends and the local context.

This paper examines the innovation dynamics of sustainability transitions within hydrocarbon–rich countries, with a particular emphasis upon the emerging solar industries in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). In order to examine the dynamics within the current Saudi and UAE energy system and subsequently assess its potential for supporting the successful establishment of sizeable solar energy industries, a list of five structural elements and seven system functions has first been compiled from the innovation literature. Next, a comparative assessment is conducted with regard to how well each of these elements and functions is currently fulfilled in both industries. Not only does the paper reveal a number of ominous signs of structural and functional related challenges, it also provides policy orientated recommendations that have the potential to support a transition towards a sustainable future within such oil–rich countries.

This study examines the challenges and opportunities of implementing the circular carbon economy model and digitalization in Saudi Arabia with a focus on CO2 emissions. The research finds that, prior to the pandemic outbreak in 2020, Saudi Arabia had succeeded in stabilizing production-based CO2 emissions due to a combination of policies outlined in the scope of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030. However, the economic downturn caused by the pandemic has led to a short-term reduction in CO2 emissions trends, highlighting the need for preparation for a rebound. Driven by the use of analytical methods including the Kaya Identity, this study suggests that the newly proposed circular carbon economy model could be an effective way for the country to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions by coordinating all significant stakeholders, including businesses and government actors. The research analyzes Saudi Arabia’s CO2 emissions trends over the past two decades and presents several steps necessary to achieve social, environmental, and economic outcomes for sustainable businesses operating in a fossil-rich country. We also highlight the need for organizational changes, new policy-making tools, as well as government, consumer, and stakeholder support to drive the changes required for integration of the circular carbon economy model and the adoption of smart technologies. Overall, the results can be used to emphasize the importance of sustainability as a competitive feature that allows businesses and countries to benefit from the distribution of risks and shared accountability.

Drawing on legitimacy and stakeholders’ perspectives, this research aims to investigate the association between investment efficiency, a value-added corporate activity important to firm viability and profitability, and the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting extent in a Saudi Arabian context. A sample of 25 Saudi firms reporting ESG information is used to test the research hypotheses. The sample is listed on the Saudi Exchange, with the research period spanning from 2014 to 2021. An OLS regression analysis shows that adopting ESG disclosure practices promote and maintain corporate investment efficiency. It displays a significant effect of corporate sustainability disclosure on the under- and over-investment levels of Saudi indexed firms. These findings are important in terms of sustainable reporting and development for the Middle East region in general and for Saudi Arabia in particular. They provide confirmation of the importance of ESG reporting as a key driver of enhanced corporate investment and bring additional evidence for regulators, policymakers, and standard-setters in terms of the effect of ESG on each sector.

This extant study attempts to present a comprehensive predictive model for solid waste recycling behavior. Solid waste is a major environmental concern globally. Particularly, the kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), being the larger gulf country in the Middle East is a major contributor to solid waste. Consequently, this study was carried out to identify the motivational factors that consumers consider important for recycling their household waste. We extended the theory of planned behavior (TBP) and utilized actual behavioral variables such as resell, reuse, and donation. A structured questionnaire was carried out with 365 purposively selected respondents in the KSA. Among several other noteworthy findings consistent with previous studies, we found that reselling was the most significant factor of recycling behavior followed by donation. Further, the multi-group analysis (MGA) results reveal significant group differences in gender and age variables; the significance test indicates that the male group has much better pro-environmental behavior than the female group. In terms of age, our results showed that recycling intention and reselling behavior passed a significant test in the elderly group when compared to a younger group. This study has unique contributions and findings leading to practical implications for government authorities, businesses, and non-governmental organizations. The findings will particularly aid in increasing the recycling intention and behavior among household consumers. This research will guide in making laws and policies that can help to embrace the green challenges and boost recycling activities for a sustainable environment.

Streets function as the place for interaction and communication, transportation, social and commercial activities for the general public. The concept of ‘complete street’ is gaining popularity worldwide. This study has assessed the current conditions of various functional streets’ categories in selected neighborhoods in Riyadh to examine the applicability of complete streets concept on streets within and outside neighborhoods. Recent policy shift in Saudi Arabia includes huge government outlays for public transportation, humanizing neighborhoods, promoting walking as a healthy lifestyle and rising fuel prices would create a positive atmosphere for the implementation of complete streets’ concept. Reclaiming streets to all users would be an important objective especially in cities that have been characterized as auto-dependent for decades. There is a need to reprioritize community development objectives for a more sustainable and livable environment.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is largely considered to be a single-commodity economy in that the oil sector is the most important pillar of the national economy while the non-oil sectors play a relatively weak role. National economic diversification is considered a strategic goal for the Saudi Arabian government. The minerals sector in Saudi Arabia is one of the economic activities which has already started to achieve this strategic goal of diversification away from oil-related activities as the main source of national income. Saudi Arabia has strategic industrial minerals such as phosphate, bauxite, high-grade silica and gypsum as well as industrial raw materials that can be used in the domestic, regional and overseas markets. The industrial minerals sector in Saudi Arabia recognises sustainable development as a vital objective for society and readily acknowledges its responsibility for helping to achieve this critical aim. This paper examines the phosphate project which is considering one of the industrial minerals important to the economy of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, focusing on its production, the structure of its industry and the effects of government policies and planning efforts.

It is possible to categorize the housing problems in Saudi Arabia based on two important factors, one quantitative and the other qualitative. The quantitative aspect is indicated by the inability to meet the increasing demand for housing, and the qualitative aspect is manifested in the fact that the current housing model does not take into consideration sustainability criteria, the quality of construction, and the life span of the house. The Kingdom's 2030 vision to raise housing ownership from 47 % to 52 % makes it necessary to find models for applying affordability and sustainability criteria. This paper aims to determine an optimal model based on the design, construction, operation and deconstruction criteria of both affordability and sustainability for residential neighborhoods and detached houses (villas). It outlines a new comprehensive approach to determine the priority criteria ranking of affordability and sustainability to be applied to low- and middle-income housing projects. The approach was developed by evaluating five models of criteria according to their relative importance and impact on the initial cost. The model selected was developed according to the local needs of Saudi Arabia, thus minimizing their environmental impact. In addition to being cost-effective, where the initial cost is reduced by 16 %–45 % after applying affordability criteria, the added cost of applying the mandatory sustainability criteria does not exceed 3.91 %. In conclusion, the study showed that this model is the ideal one for affordable and sustainable housing development for middle- and low-income households.

Sustainable building construction in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia is fraught with issues, ranging from groundwater table fluctuation to inappropriate earthwork techniques, particularly in areas that were previously reclaimed. This paper analyzes the geotechnical factors that affect the safety and serviceability of infrastructure construction on reclaimed land. The data were collected mainly from expert-based surveys and semi-structured interviews with geotechnical experts across the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. Ten critical factors were identified, and an integrated assessment was conducted using the Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM) technique to examine the hierarchical structure of the relations between the factors. In addition, the Cross-impact Matrix Multiplication Applied to Classification (MICMAC) technique was used to classify the factors from a driving to driven perspective. Findings of the study reveal the driving factors, which have the propensity to affect other factors and are the most crucial factors hindering the safety and serviceability of sustainable building construction. These factors are the presence of low-bearing sabkha soil, shallow and fluctuating depth of the groundwater table, and the lack of soil improvement applications. It is expected that concerned authorities may find the outcomes of this study useful in formulating effective policies, standards, and regulations that will protect infrastructure construction from safety and serviceability problems. While the evidence on which the results of this study are based is from experiences related to coastal areas of Saudi Arabia, the outcomes of this paper could be adopted in other coastal areas in the Gulf region. This paper adds to the current knowledge on safety and serviceability management of infrastructure constructed on reclaimed lands.

Construction procedures in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) consume excessive capital, time and resources, and thus have a direct effect on the national economy and the nation's socio-economic development. These costly procedures add to the current difficult economic situation in the construction industry. The developed and many underdeveloped countries have implemented sustainable construction practices and are increasing the awareness of the environmental impacts caused by construction processes. The KSA has taken the initiative to support and implement green building principles but still there are various factors due to which the implication of sustainable construction has not been materialised in full swing. This research project studies and evaluates those factors which have become a challenge for the construction industry in the application of sustainable construction. A new settlement in Jubail Industrial City, Saudi Arabia has been taken as a case study. This research ranked some of the barriers identified from previous studies, based on their level of importance, using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to investigate the priority ranking of the issues involved in sustainable construction principles.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) has adopted a new law and policy framework, Vision 2030, designed to deliver a transition to a diversified and low-carbon economy. This paper analyses from an environmental law and policy perspective how law is providing opportunities and challenges in achieving the outcomes of this national masterplan. The paper employs traditional legal scholarship to assess the law itself and also explores its impact in practice, via an analysis of findings from expert stakeholder interviews. Key issues around environmental governance are discussed in depth in the light of Vision 2030. One of the key issues of focus is that of integration, in terms of the design and practice of law, institutions and outcomes. To date, it is clear that the further policies needed to ensure that environmental integration and a low-carbon transition take place are currently being created in the effort to deliver the aims of the Vision. This study finds that the transition to a low-carbon economy in the KSA is under-researched and under-explored in practice, from an environmental perspective. The findings attest that although some significant actions have been initiated, further action needs to be taken, given the importance of this transition, in the KSA in the light of the promising nature of Vision 2030 in this regard.

This study explores the change over time in the World Heritage Site (WHS) of Diriyah over three critical periods, focusing on three aspects: physical, social, and economic. Using a mixed-method approach, the site’s heritage management practices and development impact are investigated, and the impact of WHS inscription on the field of heritage in Saudi Arabia is demonstrated. A methodological approach is used in this study, which includes temporal analysis, analysis of historical images and photographs, non-participant observation and semi-structured interviews with key informants, site fieldwork, analysis of archival research, the content of official documents, related media, and promotional materials. The study concludes with a three-aspect matrix demonstrating Historic Diriyah’s various development and change over time. Historic Diriyah is a WHS, and it can still project a successful massive makeover development if a sustainable development approach is used, and visual integrity and site authenticity are preserved. The site of Historic Diriyah and its surroundings were critical in promoting the site as a national identity, an international destination, and presenting a new development agenda for the entire kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It has a significant impact on policymakers who are interested in how heritage sites can be integrated into a larger vision.

The main objective of this article is to shed light on an important issue of water conservation-groundwater rights and legislation. Principles of groundwater rights are detailed and their applications to major aquifer systems, groundwater basins and wadis are discussed. Legislation and the clarification of water rights are vital for the sustainable development of groundwater. They are urgently needed in Saudi Arabia in particular and in all areas where demand exceeds supply. Legislation is one of the main pillars upon which any conservation policy is built. In this article a model is suggested for groundwater allocation in aquifers shared by more than one state.

Green building materials are composed of renewable, rather than non-renewable, resources. Green materials are environmentally responsible because the impacts of the product are considered over its life cycle. Depending upon project-specific goals, an assessment of green materials may involve an evaluation of one or more of the following criteria: resource efficiency, indoor air quality, energy efficiency, water conservation, and affordability. Product selection can begin after the establishment of project-specific environmental goals. The main objective of this research is to develop a framework that uses BIM to select optimum sustainable building materials in Saudi Arabia. To this end, a cost model will be developed to take into account initial costs, such as construction costs, and all life cycle costs including the operating costs and energy consumption of a building. The framework integrates the expanded features of BIM technology with an especially designed green building rating system for Saudi Arabia.

The development of polymeric membranes from polymers such as polystyrene (PS), polyvinylchloride (PVC), and their associated family has brought great momentum to the environmental remediation universe, mainly due to their surprisingly diverse and multi-purpose nature. Their usage has surged 20 times in the last half-century and is likely to double again in the coming 20 years. As a result, the polymeric materials economy and commercialization of research become increasingly important as a possible option for a country to boost prosperity while decreasing its reliance on limited raw resources and mitigating negative externalities. This transformation demands a systematic strategy, which involves progress beyond improving the existing models and building new avenues for collaboration. In this work, a sophisticated system, i.e., product space model (PSM), has been presented, explicitly appraising the opportunity space for United Kingdom, Italy, Poland, India, Canada, Indonesia, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Russia and Colombia for their potential future industrialization and commercialization of polymeric membranes for environmental remediation. The results revealed that UK, Italy, Poland and India are at advantageous positions owing to their close proximity of (distance<2) and their placement in Parsimonious policy, which is the most desired quadrant of Policy Map of PSM, Canada and Indonesia have medium level opportunities, while Russia and Saudi Arabia have opportunities with more challenges to fully exploit the unexploited polymers products in terms of membranes for environmental remediation and prove favorable for export diversification, sustainable economic growth, and commercialization.

Waste characterization is a fundamental step for the development of solid waste management plan. In this regard, understanding the waste generation and disposal patterns plays a crucial role in developing realistic waste reduction strategies. Presently, there exists no solid waste management plan for higher education institutes in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Hence, this article details the fundamental study related to the waste generation and disposal behaviour. The study also dwells into the existing practices of solid waste management and sheds light on the new polices that can be adopted for waste reduction, along with highlighting barriers to optimization of solid waste management. Through investigation, it was found that by adopting E-learning system for examination and replacing paper towels with air dryers in washroom and by revising policy related to printing, considerable reduction in paper waste could be achieved. Furthermore, the adoption of the proposed sustainable drinking water solution led to 90% reduction in plastic pet bottle waste. The recommendations made by the presented investigation can be employed by other similar sized institutes in developing countries for the development of sustainable green campuses.

The mining sector development is among the priorities of the Saudi Vision 2030. There is currently a lot of interest in the role of the mining sector in Saudi Arabia. This research contributes to this debate by empirically assessing the effects of mining on sustainable development in Saudi Arabia during the period 1980-2018. Unlike many previous studies, the three sustainable development dimensions, namely economic, social, and environmental, are jointly considered. The cointegration analysis, based on the ARDL, Gregory-Hansen, and combined cointegration tests, confirms the existence of long-run relationships between mining and all sustainable development dimensions. Furthermore, the findings lend substantial evidence on the importance of the mining sector in enhancing economic and social sustainability in the short- and long-run. There is, however, no evidence of the existence of adverse environmental effects of mining. The long-run effects of mining are robust to a battery of robustness and stability tests. Suitable policy recommendations are subsequently reported.

The role of entrepreneurship has transformed to include issues beyond economic growth. This has twisted attention toward the drivers of entrepreneurial intentions across entrepreneurship types, particularly in sustainable entrepreneurship. Sustainable entrepreneurship is essential and a protagonist tool in protecting the environment, economy and society. This ensures employment opportunities, solves environmental problems and facilitates social and economic development. Keeping into consideration, the present study attempts to investigate sustainable entrepreneurial intention through Attitudes toward Sustainability (ATS), Perceived Desirability (PED), Perceived Feasibility (PEF) and Opportunity Recognition (OR) among Saudi Arabia’s university students. We employed the quantitative approach and used a survey questionnaire to obtain the responses from the respondents. We targeted the students of different public sector universities in Saudi Arabia using a random sampling technique. Finally, we utilized 292 valid samples to infer the results. Utilizing the Structural Equation Model (SEM) through analysis of moment structures (AMOS), we found a positive and significant effect of Attitudes towards Sustainability (ATS), Perceived Desirability (PED) and Perceived Feasibility (PEF) on Sustainable Entrepreneurial Intentions (SEI) and Opportunity Recognition (OR). This study provides valuable insights into the entrepreneurship domain and offers guidelines for policymakers and planners in shaping the policies that promote entrepreneurial sustainability and employment in Saudi Arabia. Moreover, the OR factor also significantly and positively affects SEI. Finally, the study’s findings would contribute to the literature review by adding another empirical confirmation from Saudi Arabian students’ viewpoint.

Academics, business leaders, and policymakers are paying more and more attention to sustainable development. The influence of external forces on sustainable development practices, which could predict green innovation, is, however, still unexplored. This paper seeks to explore the role of external pressures on sustainable development practices in the driving of green innovation in Saudi Arabia. We took a quantitative approach through an online survey to collect the required data from manufacturing companies in Saudi Arabia. Structural equation modelling was used to analyse the data. The results revealed that institutional pressures (i.e., governance pressure, customer pressures, and competitive pressure) are key drivers of sustainable development practices and green innovation. They also indicated that sustainable development practices (i.e., environmental sustainability, social sustainability, and economic environmental sustainability) have a significant influence on green innovation. Our findings lead us to propose that green innovation is influenced by external pressures and sustainable development practices.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the countries that seek to achieve sustainable development through Vision 2030. The objective of this research is to study the impact of digitization to ensure the competitiveness of the Ha’il region to achieve sustainable development goals. To do this, we applied two techniques in two steps. The first step is based on artificial intelligence through a machine learning technique. The second step is the vector auto-regressive model and impulse response functions. The results show that digitization has a strong impact on the achievement of five sustainable development goals in the Ha’il region. These five priority objectives among 17 goals have been determined by a machine learning technique, each of which is likely to contribute in one way or another to economic, social, and environmental aspects. The results suggest that digitization promotes the acceleration of sustainable development in the Ha’il region. This study is interesting for policymakers in Saudi Arabia to use artificial intelligence and digitalization to achieve economic unification of this region with other regions of the Kingdom.

All modes of transport can be seen to bring some influence to bear on a country’s economic growth, health, and environment. However, the impact differs among developing countries. This paper presents an assessment and evaluation of the development of a sustainable transportation system in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). For this study, data were collected about the four transportation modes of sea, air, road and rail. The data were analyzed to determine the current condition, needs, challenges, and opportunities for improvement for each mode of transportation. Problems associated with each transportation mode were addressed and solutions to overcome these problems were recommended. The results indicate that while sea transportation provides the country with freight transport, it is of limited service to passengers in the Gulf region or on the Red Sea. Air transportation meets the needs of Saudi Arabia with international connections, but domestic flights provide limited passenger transport to the wealthy and are not an effective mode of transport for short distances. Road transport is the most popular mode for the general public but is associated with numerous problems such as the environment, health, noise, a high accident rate, and being the first cause of death in the country. Rail transportation seems to be the mode which is most sustainable for the future. It is essential that KSA meets public demand for public transportation with a reliable, cost effective, and safe public transportation system. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091776 Full Text: PDF

Around the world, cities are on the front lines of sustainable development. They are responsible for more than 70% of global carbon emissions. Many of these cities are experiencing dangerous levels of pollution, underemployment, and health disparities. Since 2015, 193 countries have endorsed the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), intended to help address a wide range of challenges affecting cities and ultimately secure the resources for their next generations. All states are expected to present the national progress towards the SDGs through a Voluntary National Review (VNR). Despite the importance of the cities within this framework, only a handful of them worldwide have actively begun to review and assess progress towards these SDGs on a city scale. This paper seeks to develop a Voluntary Local Review (VLR) framework to assess and evaluate the progress of cities towards contributing to the SDGs. This framework has been developed by localizing the international and national frameworks to measure the performance of cities as they advance towards achieving the SDGs. Such a framework can serve as a tool for benchmarking progress on different aspects of sustainable development and help urban planners and policymakers prioritize policies and actions to improve urban quality of life. This framework is applied to monitor and evaluate the progress of the city of Buraidah in Saudi Arabia, as it strives towards achieving the targets of SDG11 (“Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable”).

COVID-19 is a pandemic that has affected nearly every country in the world. At present, sustainable development in the area of public health is considered vital to securing a promising and prosperous future for humans. However, widespread diseases, such as COVID-19, create numerous challenges to this goal, and some of those challenges are not yet defined. In this study, a Shallow Single-Layer Perceptron Neural Network (SSLPNN) and Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) model were used for the classification and prediction of confirmed COVID-19 cases in five geographically distributed regions of Asia with diverse settings and environmental conditions: namely, China, South Korea, Japan, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan. Significant environmental and non-environmental features were taken as the input dataset, and confirmed COVID-19 cases were taken as the output dataset. A correlation analysis was done to identify patterns in the cases related to fluctuations in the associated variables. The results of this study established that the population and air quality index of a region had a statistically significant influence on the cases. However, age and the human development index had a negative influence on the cases. The proposed SSLPNN-based classification model performed well when predicting the classes of confirmed cases. During training, the binary classification model was highly accurate, with a Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 0.91. Likewise, the results of the regression analysis using the GPR technique with Matern 5/2 were highly accurate (RMSE = 0.95239) when predicting the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in an area. However, dynamic management has occupied a core place in studies on the sustainable development of public health but dynamic management depends on proactive strategies based on statistically verified approaches, like Artificial Intelligence (AI). In this study, an SSLPNN model has been trained to fit public health associated data into an appropriate class, allowing GPR to predict the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in an area based on the given values of selected parameters. Therefore, this tool can help authorities in different ecological settings effectively manage COVID-19.

Abstract The Bedu have lived for centuries in harmony with the environment in the Middle Eastern desert known as the Badia region. However, during the 20th century their environment was fragmented and divided to form parts of Jordan, Syria, Iraq and Saudi Arabia. This process restricted their movements and increased the pressure on the environment. In addition, economic growth and urbanization have also had an impact on their way of life. As a consequence, the Jordan Badia Research and Development Programme (BRDP) was established, during 1992, to improve the Bedu's quality of life and to ensure sustainable development and environmental protection in the Badia. This paper reviews the BRDP strategy as well as the deliverables thus far in terms of benefits to local communities, facilities, pioneered projects, main research outcomes and current research priorities.

In this research, we aim to define and analyze dynamic capabilities (DCs) for organizational resilience (OR) to achieve sustainability in the tourism industry (SST) in Saudi Arabia. In fact, we admit that resilience is the foundation for the development of sustainability based on different factors and capabilities. After debating the concept of DC for resilience and its dimensions, an integrative model of resilience, sustainability, factors and DCs was developed and tested to identify the joined effect of these factors. The research adopted a quantitative research design and the survey method to collect data. Structural equation modeling was selected for data analysis. Through a dataset of 200 respondents, results indicated the four main components of DC significantly affect OR by a mediating effect and moderate the relationship between OR and sustainable tourism. The mediating effect confirmed here is still related to only three resilience factors: resilience network, organizational factors and individual factors. Managerial and theoretical implications are also discussed at the end of this paper. The research model defined and tested can be considered as a critical pathway for resilience on tourism industry in Saudi Arabia after crisis caused by COVID-19 pandemic.

Energy consumption in the building sector accounts for a large percentage of global energy consumption. For this reason, it is essential to take action to minimize this destructive consumption and promote energy conservation practices within the building sector. A Zero Energy Building (ZEB) concept has been proven as a viable technique for improving energy efficiency in various climatic conditions. This concept can minimize the environmental impact of buildings and helping to advance sustainable development in the construction industry. Worldwide, the ZEB is of the utmost importance to meet sustainability development goals in the built environment. The building sector in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) consumes about 75% of total electrical energy. KSA has experienced an unprecedented energy consumption in the last decade. This is due to the country’s rapid population growth and urbanization, which in turn put more pressures on the kingdom’s natural resources. However, KSA is committed to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies to achieve the goals of sustainability development, as part of its Vision 2030. This paper therefore explores various green building solutions, especially in hot-arid regions, with the aim of reaching ZEB, and at the same time minimizing potential adverse environmental impacts. In order to verify proposed solutions, energy simulation software (Integrated Environmental Solution-IES) is used, along with reviews of related work. The major finding of this paper reveals that several green building concepts are crucial to the design and operation of a building in hot dry region, including thermal mass; daylight; natural ventilation; cavity wall; double-glazing and solar panels (PV). Bear in mind that the operation of a building has to be powered by a Building Management System (BMS). This paper also proposes an auxiliary holistic framework that explains how green practices such as Zero Energy Buildings (ZEBs) can be achievable in Saudi Arabia with no harm to its local environment.

Sustainability improvement in Saudi Arabia and the whole Middle East is focused on only buildings and small projects. However, the history of architecture in the Middle East starting from 7th century to the end of 19th century was the real beginning of sustainable design and development. Nowadays, there is no wide planning to take a step forward towards sustainable city. Abha in Saudi Arabia could be one of the best inceptions as a sustainable city. Its climate puts Abha in the first places to be selected for applying sustainable development. Abha is the biggest city in Asir territory and the capital of tourism in Saudi Arabia. It is located 2,200 meters above the sea level with a prolific soil on the mountains of south-western Saudi Arabia (Hoiberg D. H., 2010). All over the year, the temperature moves from its lowest level around 7 C° to its maximum of 28 C° (Weather spark, n.d.). The average rainfall is 278 mm, which means that it is enough for human use and irrigation. This paper is focusing on studying the actual situation of Abha’s development and apply sustainable criteria on its architecture, planning and infra-structure to move it inside the territory of eco-cities.   Keywords: Sustainable development, Abha, Architecture, Infra-structure, sustainable city

The objective of this case study was to examine how the planned city of NEOM in Saudi Arabia can contribute to the country’s economy and sustainability goals. The case study was intended to assess the challenges of planned city projects through the lens of the potential benefits to the host country’s economy. Using data from the project’s official website and relevant publications, it became possible to assess the risk management in urban megaprojects and to explore the issue of sustainable urbanization in the context of NEOM. In order to analyze the data, content analysis and thematic analysis techniques were used which allowed for the identification of patterns and trends in the data and to draw conclusions about the potential contributions of NEOM to Saudi Arabia’s economy and sustainability goals. The findings suggest that NEOM, which aims to be a net-zero carbon city, has attracted significant partners and investors interested in testing renewable energy technologies and infrastructure. The viability of NEOM as a testing ground for sustainable planned cities and their impact on the host country will depend on the ability to effectively balance the potential economic benefits with the risks and costs associated with the project. This study’s results indicate that NEOM represents an opportunity for Saudi Arabia to rebrand its image and participate in the creation of a green future, but its success will depend on fulfilling the investment requirements and managing the project-related challenges.

The individuals’ impact on the environment has caused a need to study and evaluate why these humans act in non-sustainable ways. Nowadays, many researchers study how to change these non-sustainable behaviors. Colleges and universities (higher education sector) have been called on to increase awareness and knowledge of environmental problems in order to change these non-sustainable actions. This study has been done in Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is a semi-developed country that has a low level of sustainable development awareness. The researchers have reviewed several articles describing such awareness initiatives. However, few studies have been done in Saudi Arabia. The purpose of this study is to examine the advantages and disadvantages of sustainability awareness in Saudi Arabia in the higher education sector. An online survey was created, and one hundred and ten participants completed the survey questions, and the researchers analyzed the results to reach the research objective. The results of the online survey showed that the Saudis believe that sustainable development can increase their job advantages, and reduce their carbon footprint, gas emissions and pollution. Furthermore, some Saudis believe that some organizations and businesses will be damaged if they did not implement the sustainable development. Thus, this study’s findings support further sustainability research, which is needed to see other apparent causes of the low level of sustainability awareness in Saudi Arabia. In addition, the researchers have proposed a number of sustainability advantages and disadvantages factors. Finally, there are number of limitations to this research. First, the participants were restricted to Saudis from a higher education sector. Second, most of the survey participants did not complete their surveys. Third, the survey participants took a long time to respond which is time-consuming to the researchers. Indeed, further suggestions and recommendations were delivered at the end of the research.

This paper investigates and analyses the redesigning of a heritage village in the southern region of Saudi Arabia to determine the impact of sustainable design strategies and green open spaces for the village rehabilitation. Heritage village development is an important step to consider for sustainable urban planning and design due to its influence in urban development, the local economy, and historical conservation. Al-Qahad heritage village has been selected as the case study due to its involvement with different historical domestic buildings, military castles, and mosques and its location on the main highway between Albaha and other regions. Furthermore, this heritage village reflects in its urban identity the local environment, social culture, and local construction materials and vernacular architecture. The applied approach involved visiting Al-Qahad heritage village for (a) analysis of the site and environmental conditions, (b) mobility survey analysis, and (c) the application of urban sustainable design strategies for redesigning Al-Qahad heritage village. The site visit included a physical survey to determine the current condition of buildings regarding heights, conditions, land use, and construction materials used. The output of the study is to redesign the heritage village including suggesting some other urban facilities, such as a museum, hotel, and other social activities to attract visitors and rehabilitate the village. The study highlights the importance of many urban sustainable design strategies that can be applied in other heritage villages in Saudi Arabia to protect and conserve the historical buildings and invest in these facilities for tourism purposes. Saudi Arabia is a nation rich with heritage villages, which are found across the country especially in the southern region. The study concludes by offering several recommendations for developers and investors.

India is ranked fifth in the world in terms of COVID-19 publications accounting for 6.7% of the total. About 60% of the COVID-19 publications in the year 2020 are from United States, China, UK, Italy, and India. We present a bibliometric analysis of the publication trends and citation structure along with the identification of major research clusters. By performing network analysis of authors, citations, institutions, keywords, and countries, we explore semantic associations by applying visualization techniques. Our study shows lead taken by the United States, China, UK, Italy, India in COVID-19 research may be attributed to the high prevalence of COVID-19 cases in those countries witnessing the first outbreak and also due to having access to COVID-19 data, access to labs for experimental trials, immediate funding, and overall support from the govt. agencies. A large number of publications and citations from India are due to co-authored publications with countries like the United States, UK, China, and Saudi Arabia. Findings show health sciences have the highest number of publications and citations, while physical sciences and social sciences and humanities counts were low. A large proportion of publications fall into the open-access category. With India as the focus, by comparing three major pandemics—SARS, MERS, COVID-19—from a bibliometrics perspective, we observe much broader involvement of authors from multiple countries for COVID-19 studies when compared to SARS and MERS. Finally, by applying bibliometric indicators, we see an increasing number of sustainable development-related studies from the COVID-19 domain, particularly concerning the topic of good health and well-being. This study allows for a deeper understanding of how the scholarly community from a populous country like India pursued research in the midst of a major pandemic which resulted in the closure of scientific institutions for an extended time.

Everything about our life is complex. It should not be so. New approaches to governance are needed to tackle these complexities and the rising global challenges. Smartization of cities and societies has the potential to unite us, humans, on a sustainable future for us through its focus on the triple bottom line (TBL) – social, environmental, and economic sustainability. Data-driven analytics are at the heart of this smartization. This study provides a case study on sustainable participatory governance using a data-driven parameter discovery for planning online, in-class, and blended learning in Saudi Arabia evidenced during the COVID-19 pandemic. For this purpose, we developed a software tool comprising a complete machine learning pipeline and used a dataset comprising around 2 million tweets in the Arabic language collected during a period of over 14 months (October 2020 to December 2021). We discovered fourteen governance parameters grouped into four governance macro parameters. These discovered parameters by the tool demonstrate the possibility and benefits of our sustainable participatory planning and governance approach, allowing the discovery and grasp of important dimensions of the education sector in Saudi Arabia, the complexity of the policy, the procedural and practical issues in continuing learning during the pandemic, the factors that have contributed to the success of teaching and learning during the pandemic times, both its transition to online learning and its return to in-class learning, the challenges public and government have faced related to learning during the pandemic times, and the new opportunities for social, economical, and environmental benefits that can be drawn out of the situation created by the pandemic. The parameters and information learned through the tool can allow governments to have a participatory approach to governance and improve their policies, procedures, and practices, perpetually through public and stakeholder feedback. The data-driven parameter discovery approach we propose is generic and can be applied to the governance of any sector. The specific case study is used to elaborate on the proposed approach.

The underlying premise of this paper is that it is in the best long-term interests for major oil-producing countries to support the development and diffusion of renewable energy technologies. Since there have only been a limited number of sustainability transition studies which have drawn upon the theoretical concepts that have recently been articulated within the realm of innovation studies, this paper makes use of the dominant theoretical concepts related to the functions of innovation systems in order to examine the potential establishment of a sizable renewable energy industry in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Not only does the paper reveals a number of ominous signs of weakness that currently impede a transition towards renewables in this oil-rich country, but it also provides recommendations that have the potential to support the future development of a well-functioning sustainable innovation system.

The study's goal is to explore and scrutinize the role of governance in achieving, manipulating, and modifying sustainable economic growth in Saudi Arabia. It also highlight the role of governance measures prior and after Vision 2030, by using ARDL and dynamic ARDL simulated econometric approaches. On contrary to the existing literature, the empirical estimations have reported the adverse impact of governance effectiveness on economic growth. Further, the findings have endorsed the significant and positive impact of voice of accountability, rule of law and corruption control. Moreover, the results of post Vision 2030 have illustrated that institutional dimension of governance has substantial and positive coefficients, while political stability and governance effectiveness need to be addressed to undertake sustainable economic growth in Saudi Arabia. In turn of policy recommendations, this study empowers administration in monitoring current strategies and later decision-making.

The building construction industry in Saudi Arabia is plagued by poor performance that drastically reduced future sustainable practices. This long-term risk should be rectified using inclusive construction methods, without posing a threat to the environment, society, and economy. Value management (VM) is a valuable tool for resolving difficulties, such as restricted assets, tight schedules, cost, and sustainable alternatives in the building construction industry. VM adoption in the building construction sector had proved to be beneficial in both developed and developing countries. Therefore, this paper aimed to examine and provide insight into critical success factors (CSFs) that enable VM adaptation in Saudi Arabia. A mixed method approach of both quantitative and qualitative was applied using interviews from ten (10) experts with considerable experience in the construction field. Five hundred and fifty (5 5 0) questionnaires were designed for construction professionals. Construction experts suggested ways to enhance VM adoption by defining 25 CSFs that affect VM implementation in the construction industry. The findings further showed that building professionals have significant expertise in VM activities. However, the level of application remained unchanged and hoovers on the average spectrum. This study has contributed to a better understanding of VM implementation in the construction industry. It also facilitates SCFs monitoring, improve the efficiency of VM practice and development of future VM policies.

Interest in sustainable development is increasing. Understanding the user's perspective toward software sustainability helps to enhance understanding of the concept. The need for developing countries to enhance their ICT infrastructure to align with United Nation (UN) sustainable development goals increases the necessity to understand the current perception of software users, industry and sustainability experts, to improve the level of software sustainability. Software sustainability has a number of challenges with regard to adoption by software users. This study investigates software sustainability from the point of view of users in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) by addressing four scales, namely beliefs, intention, attitude and perceptions toward using sustainable software. It also addresses key barriers to sustainable software, such as lack of awareness and difficulty of recognising sustainable software.

Electronic waste generation is increasing dramatically throughout the world. Consequently, this increase in E-waste harms the environment, health, and other aspects of human life. Moreover, hazardous substances and the informal disposal of E-waste severely threaten human health and the environment. Saudi Arabia is the largest Arab country in terms of electronic waste generation and is the Arab country that generates the most E-waste. Over the past few decades, several initiatives and policy implementations have been undertaken in the country. However, the management of E-waste is still a source of distress and an unresolved issue. Sustainable development requires much more effort, primarily efficient E-waste management, which can only be achieved by establishing a formal collection system, early forecasting, and accurate estimations. The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of the fundamental and emerging trends in E-waste production worldwide and in Saudi Arabia. This paper aims to summarize the hazardous elements present in E-waste, their dangerous effects, and the economic potential for recycling E-waste as a means of developing sustainable communities. This study explores the practices regarding efficient E-waste management and E-waste estimation and prediction globally, specifically in Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries. This study suggests that more than the use of a single management probe will be needed to achieve significant results. Instead, a complementary approach can be used to achieve the most effective results. Additionally, people should be aware of the importance of handling and recycling E-waste. This study emphasizes the importance of formal collection and documentation to ensure effective monitoring and sustainable development in any developed country.

Environmental Sustainability and ecological benefits through green products innovations has recently gained significance due to increase in issues such as global warming, CO2 emissions, increase in waste and other ecological hazards. In the construction sector, green products innovations emphasize upon waste reduction or material recycling, energy conservation and control of pollution. Despite international certifications and LEED ratings, there are still barriers that retard the growth of green product innovation projects. This study investigated green product innovation through a multiple case study analysis of several building projects in three construction firms in the industrial towns of Jubail and Yanbu, Saudi Arabia. The study was carried out around three variables, viz. energy conservation, materials reduction, and pollution control in the project life cycle. In-depth interviews and a study of documentation revealed such dimensions of green product innovation that are essential for a construction company to adhere to. The study also found out barriers that need to be addressed to in order to achieve green Saudi Arabia. Finally, the study suggested developing skills of company personnel and reviewing of the regulations in order to motivate companies to involve themselves more in green projects.

This study examines the significance of technological industry and forest on environmental footprints. As control variables, we included renewable energy, and urbanization for econometric estimations. Contrary to what has been published in the literature, the forest coefficients are negligible. In contrast, the current study confirms the importance of technology and renewable energy in reducing environmental footprints, indicating that environmental degradation can be reduced by shifting toward technological industry and changing the energy market by increasing the percentage of sustainable energy. In Saudi Arabia, on other hand, urbanization is the source of increased environmental footprints. In short-run estimations, the studied variables are insignificant to have an impact on environmental footprint. According to Vision 2030, the findings are similar to policies, particularly for forestation, need to be adjusted. The role of forest remains insignificant, indicating that forestation must be addressed urgently. The findings are intriguing and have significant policy implications for environmental policymakers.

&lt;p&gt;The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) concept is not a new phenomenon for the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) operating in the Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabian government has taken many initiatives in this regard. Arab forum for Environment and Development (AFED ) in their 2008 report have confirmed that the Arab countries have to shift their focus on the green economy to achieve sustainable development and this is possible if CSR is being successfully implemented in all the business organizations specially SMEs. Therefore, the focus of this paper is to analyze the awareness of SMEs regarding the concept of CSR and their efforts towards the CSR for a greener Saudi Arabia. &lt;/p&gt;

This study uses data from 1980 to 2020 to analyze the explanatory power of renewable energy (RE), green finance (GF), and public health expenditure (PUHE) for environmental quality (ecological footprint: EF) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). In order to examine the long- and short-term effects, we ran both linear autoregressive distribution (ARDL) and nonlinear autoregressive distribution (NARDL) models. The empirical results showed that, when estimating the ARDL model, all variables have an impact on the environment’s long-term quality, which has increased. Furthermore, the NARDL model supports the existence of significant positive or negative shocks that support an unbalanced relationship with the movement of variables over the short and long term. Overall, the study demonstrates the critical role of factors that can enhance the environment in the KSA setting. In light of this, we advise policymakers to encourage the use of additional renewable energy sources and to expedite their efforts to do so in order to slow down environmental damage.

The present demand for economically viable buildings in the Saudi Public Sector is coupled with the need to maximise the efficient use of Saudi Arabian natural resources. The lack of consideration paid to sustainability issues during the concept phase has resulted in higher consumption of materials and energy during both the construction and operational phases of many building projects. Although there is extensive Value Management (VM) knowledge and experience, many who work in the Saudi Public Sector appear to have less experience of sustainable development, consequently sustainable construction is all too often not a major consideration. This paper is part of an ongoing research which aims to exploit the VM experiences and skills of those in the Saudi Public Sector in order to accelerate the understanding and implementation of sustainable development in the country. It provides an overview of the current situation of VM and sustainability in the Saudi Public Sector by investigating in-depth the: application of VM and sustainability; clients’ attitudes towards both subjects; identification of the barriers that impede their application and the determination of the level of existent knowledge about both topics in the Saudi Public Sector.

The energy market today is turbulent. Nations follow different energy trends and shape their policies towards Energy Transition and sustainable development. To avoid risks and pursue opportunities, oil and gas companies must adapt their longterm strategies to macro-trends and national regulations.The study's objective is to investigate how major oil and gas companies’ development trends correlate with trends and strategies at the national level. The hypothesis is that oil and gas companies’ operations and innovation portfolios are linked to national energy mixes and environmental regulations. To do this, the authors examined the energy markets of 54 countries with the focus on Brazil, Canada, China, EU, Norway, Russia, Saudi Arabia, the UK, the USA, operational indicators, and innovation development trends of 18 major oil and gas companies. The production volumes have been translated into an ordinal scale and analyzed with the use of Spearman correlation.The study confirmed a weak correlation between oil and gas companies' operational indicators and national strategies. Companies operating in countries with strict environmental regulations, primarily in the European Economic Area, have been more likely to adapt their businesses to energy transition while building up oil and gas production; they also have had more diversified innovation portfolios. As more countries moved towards later generations of environmental regulations, the increase in renewable energy investments was found in more oil and gas majors.

This paper investigates the strategies and priorities to identify the critical indicators for the protection of the environment and ecosystem in the mountain regions of southwest Saudi Arabia, considering the natural resources, renewable energy potential, local economy, urban development issues, and compatibility with the Saudi Vision 2030. The southern region of the country is characterized as having cooler climatic conditions than the other regions of Saudi Arabia and is rich in natural resources and renewable energy potential. It also has potential in the sectors of agriculture, forests, and animal production, and the region’s heritage is valuable for its tourism industry. During the past years, the region is experiencing a misbalance in its resources and population due to a quick increase in urban development. It is seen that there has been no strategy in place for the management of development. Hence, it is important to establish a framework designed to manage urban planning and sprawl that considers the topographical conditions, wildlife and forest protection, and investment in natural and renewable resources. This study employs a focus group approach to investigate these issues. Different expert panels were invited to Al-Baha University in December 2019 to discuss the sustainable development priorities of Saudi Arabia’s southern regions. These included decision-makers from governmental sectors, and academics from the university’s faculties of engineering, economics, sciences, and social sciences. The study highlights the issues of urban sprawl management in cities that impact the environmental conditions and wildlife habitat, concluding that the agriculture and tourism industries are the most important factors that should be targeted by developers in the southwestern regions of the country.

This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the potential and feasibility of using solar thermal cooling systems in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). The performance of a desiccant cooling system has been determined based on climatic data of 32 cities spread all over the territory of the country. The investigation has been carried out keeping in view the high energy consumption for cooling applications in the country. The analysis has been done using the overall performance of the system, sensible energy ratio, and cooling and regeneration loads. The main objective of this study is to encourage the implementation of solar thermal cooling systems in the country for the development of sustainable buildings. The economic analysis shows that thermal cooling technology can reduce the cost of cooling units, remarkably. Furthermore, the utilization of the proposed system will decrease the dependence on primary energy resources. The saving factor of the proposed system with 1 ton capacity in comparison to the conventional vapor compression unit is found to be 34.6%. The present study also recommends that the government subsidies and incentives can further improve the development and utilization of solar air conditioning technology in developing countries.

This study examines how best to achieve inclusive sustainable development and meeting of carbon target in Saudi Arabia. With a track record of high economic performance due to its richness in natural resources, specifically oil resources, Saudi Arabia is characterized by heavy economic activities that are anchored on natural resources and excessive energy utilization. Two scientific approaches, non-linear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) and dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS), are adopted to analyze annual data spanning the period 1990–2019. Also, policy-based variables (financial development, renewable energy and natural resources) are selected for the analyses. Findings from NARDL show that carbon emission (CO2) is reduced by a positive shock to both financial development and renewable energy, and increased by an adverse shock to financial development and renewable energy. However, a positive shock to both economic growth and natural resources increases carbon emission, thereby impacting negatively on the environment. Quantitatively, for every 1% increase in natural resource rent, the environmental quality worsens by 0.093%. Additionally, the country's average CO2 emission level increases by 1.093% for every 1% increase in economic growth, thus lowering long-term environmental quality. Findings from DOLS align with the findings from NARDL, thereby supporting the moderating effects of financial development and renewable energy. The study findings suggest policies based on finance and renewable energy to aid sustainable development.

Program outcome assessment is a complex process that demands careful planning and resources in order to accurately assess higher-order thinking skills. A well-defined assessment approach provides detailed insights into program weaknesses and leads to continuous improvement. Whereas a poor assessment approach does not reflect the underlying weaknesses and may result in a useless effort. Furthermore, each accreditation body may have a different recommended outcome measurement approach. As a result, academic institutions may make adhoc choices just to satisfy accreditation requirements rather than designing a sustainable measurement approach. On the other hand, the magnitude of huge tasks for satisfying multiple accreditation bodies results in fatigue and mental stress for academic staff. ABET is a well-known international program accreditation body, and NCAAA is a local accreditation body for academic programs in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In this paper, we have documented that how a sustainable outcome measurement mechanism can be designed to satisfy both ABET and NCAAA requirements. The core contribution of this paper is relevant specifically for academic programs in the Kingdom striving to meet both ABET and NCAAA requirements and is also relevant for all education programs to design an appropriate program assessment approach to ensure a sustainable process to foster better learning among students.

Purpose This paper aims to examine the effect of the shareholder governance on environmental sustainability by the moderating effect of some cultural factors. Design/methodology/approach The authors have studied the extent of sustainability by continent. On the other hand, the authors have conducted three empirical models that deal with the effect of shareholder governance on environmental sustainability and also with the moderating effect of cultural factors. Findings Using a sample of 140 countries during the year 2018, the authors find a notable and positive effect of the shareholder governance on environmental sustainability. Regarding the role of cultural factors, the authors found that the factor gender parity is more important than other factors. Practical implications The findings have policy implications for governments aiming to combat environmental sustainability and shareholder governance. Originality/value This research has approached cultural factors in a different context, which is an eastern country, which are completely different from those of western countries. On the other hand, the subject of sustainability is not sufficiently threated in this country (Saudi Arabia).

This research aimed to explore how transformational leadership factors can be linked to the economic development in the central region of Saudi Arabia. In the current study, we had systemically selected 377 individuals with random job samples in both the public sector and private sector, by managers or vice-managers, from the central area, Saudi Arabia. through the survey frame, a technique and survey methods for gathering data on research issues; transformational leadership, and economic development were included in the current study. There were major statistically significant positive correlates of growth between idealized effects and individualized considerations, and poor significant correlations with intellectual stimulus and encouragement. The body of knowledge that studies productive and sustainable management raised the perspectives of economic development; therefore, the managers used this knowledge as a lever to accomplish it. Organizations should teach their executives and administrators to exercise leadership, make them work harder, provide good leadership, and grow their organization.

The land use and land cover study (LULC) play an essential role in regional socio-economic development and natural resource management to develop sustainable development in vegetation changes, water quantity and quality, land resources, and coastal management. This study uses remote sensing data to investigate LULC in the Northern Border Region (NBR) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The purpose of this study is to obtain a better understanding of the patterns and drivers of changes in LULC in the NBR over the past three decades. Remote sensing data from Landsat imagery between 1990 and 2022 were used to classify LULC types, and a time series analysis was performed using Landsat imagery to detect changes over time. The classification finds four main classes: bare land, built-up area, rocks, and vegetation. The results indicate a significant increase in urban development. The outcomes revealed that most urbanization occurred in the outskirts of the cities, where previously there were bare soil lands. The main drivers of urbanization were population growth and economic development. These findings have important implications for city planning, the management of green spaces, and the sustainable development of cities. Maximum Likelihood classifier was used to perform the classification. The accuracy assessment demonstrated satisfactory results, with an overall accuracy of 92.6%. The study paves the way for further monitoring LULC changes in the NBR geographic location. The technique used was adequate to address the objectives of this study.

In this paper, we present a novel empirical study of water-related questions from famous environment-related Q&A websites. Additionally, after a comprehensive evaluation, we explore solutions of global freshwater scarcity. Results show that in-spite of approximately constant number of water-related questions-posted from 2014-2017, the views on these questions are significantly decreasing. Prominent locations of water-related discussions are USA, Europe, Australia, and India. Most of the water-related questions discuss oceanography and water-management. Indian-users are observed to discuss solutions of their local water-related problems while no water-related discussion is observed from desalination-pioneers like Saudi-Arabia, Israel etc. Finite annual freshwater inventories are inadequate to meet stringently burgeoning human demand for water. To fathom desalination as a solution to water-scarcity by employing renewable energy, we draw a comparison of India and Saudi-Arabia and suggest desalination of sea-water as the sustainable solution for water-scarcity in regions with proximity to seas and oceans. This work also responds to myths that devoid of desalination and aims to formulate awareness in order to create a global freshwater security.

This paper examines the role of financial and non-financial incentives in promoting environmental investment, which is critical in addressing the challenges of sustainable growth and development in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, whose economy is heavily dependent on fossil fuel that contributes to some of the environmental problems facing the country. The paper conducts an econometric analysis of the relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation and finds a negative and statistically significant relationship between environmental emissions and the growth rate of gross domestic product (GDP). However, the magnitude of the growth-environment coefficient shrinks when more ambitious cuts in environmental emissions are introduced, suggesting that environmental investments would help overcome environmental degradation and thereby lead to a sustainable Saudi Arabian economy. Attracting environmental investments, however, will require a strong policy incentive structure. As a result, the paper further investigates the link between policy incentives and environmental investment in the renewable energy sector of some European countries where data on a wide range of incentives exist. The estimated coefficients of all the incentive variables are positive and statistically significant at varying levels, suggesting that incentives matter in environmental investments, sending an important message to countries like Saudi Arabia that, by providing appropriate incentives, policy makers would be able to boost investments in renewable energy and other environmental goods and services and thereby help to promote sustainable growth and development. Key words: sustainable development, Saudi Arabia, environmental investments, policy incentives, oil prices

Industrial development in any nation plays a vital role in the strengthening of the economy and employs human resources as per specifications and directly towards the mainstream of the nation. In Saudi Arabia, there was rapid industrialization for four decades. Some manufacturing industries performed well, while some internal and external business environment factors influenced the others’ performance. The study focuses on historical development, as well as recent trends of well-performing and poor-performing industries of Saudi Arabia. Small manufacturing industries in Saudi Arabia are underdeveloped and need more attention to attain sustainable and progressive growth rate in the form of the number of establishments to enjoy the potential. Manufacture of tobacco, computer, electronics and optics, pharmaceuticals and transport equipment are the deprived and underdeveloped industries of the manufacturing sector. There should be some easy credit schemes for the development of deprived or underdeveloped manufacturing industries. To attain sustainable growth and development of the manufacturing sector, a positive attitude of the government towards underdeveloped manufacturing industries, favorable labor laws, and entrepreneurial awareness, technical and financial assistance are necessary. The growth and development of the manufacturing sector of Saudi Arabia will be helpful in the attainment of goals of Vision 2030.

Recently, Saudi Arabia is undergoing major privatization and Public Private Partnership (PPP) projects, as guided by the Saudi National Transformation Program (NTP) 2020 and the Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, attempting to shift the oil-based economy toward more diverse and sustainable economy. The main purpose of the paper is to empirically examine the aviation-led growth hypothesis for Saudi Arabia by testing causality between civil aviation and economic development, applying econometric tests such as Granger causality tests for the time period from 1975 to 2011. Empirical results reveal the existence of the Civil aviation Led-Economic growth hypothesis (economic expansion causing the civil aviation sector to grow) for a developing country like Saudi Arabia. As guided by both the NTP 2020 and Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, policy makers should consider updating civil aviation infrastructure, nation-wide airport privatization programs, increase the number of airports in major cities and establish long term partnerships with international airlines and carriers. This will strengthen the private sector and diversify the oil-based economy toward a sustainable economy.

Recently, Saudi Arabia has been facing rising energy demand due to industrial development and population growth. While having vast reserves of fossil fuels, this country has formulated comprehensive plans to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels and develop its renewable sources to meet its energy demand sustainably with less environmental impacts. Research has shown the excellent potentials of Saudi Arabia in terms of renewable energies (RE) including solar, wind, biomass, hydroelectric and geothermal. The goal of this research was to select the appropriate RE development strategies for Saudi Arabia. For this purpose, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis was used to formulate a number of strategies for this country, weighting criteria were determined using the best-worst method (BWM), and the strategies were ranked using Additive Ratio Assessment in Gray environment (ARAS-G). The weighting results showed that the most important sub-criteria for the evaluation of RE development strategies for Saudi Arabia are “power generation investment cost,” “effects on the local climate and ecosystems,” and “local climatic potentials,” in that order. The strategy ranking results showed that the best RE development strategy for Saudi Arabia is to pursue low-cost renewable energy generation in different parts of the country by supporting scientific studies and research &development, attracting investment, and promoting the use of advanced equipment.

Our built environment is responsible for some of the most serious global and local en- vironmental change. The construction industry therefore faces pressure to increase the sustainability of its practices re ected in the development of stringent regulations and sustainability assessment methods, designed to mitigate such negative impacts. How- ever, the well-established methods (e.g. BREEAM, LEED, SBTool, and CASBEE) have not originally been designed to suit developing countries (including Saudi Arabia). This study therefore proposes to customize an adapted Saudi Environmental Assessment Method (SEAM). This study to begin with investigates the most important and globally widespread environmental assessment methods: BREEAM, LEED, SBTool, and CAS- BEE. It identifes areas of convergence and distinction in order to enable the consolida- tion of environmental criteria into new potential schemes. As sustainable and ecological context are usually regarded as multi-dimensional, scientific evidence proposes that a technique based on consensus is most appropriate for the establishment of inclusive and efficient building environmental assessment schemes. Therefore, a consensus based ap- proach is used to deliver: (a) applicable assessment categories and criteria for the Saudi Arabia context and (b) its weighting system. Hence, the Delphi technique and Ana- lytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) are selected and conducted in four successive systematic consultation rounds, involving world leading experts in the domain of environmental and sustainable assessment schemes, as well as professionals and highly-informed local experts from academia, government and industry. These two stages resulted in the development of SEAM criteria and its weighting system.

Since the inauguration of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs), environmental performance and sustainability have become more important to decision makers, scientists and leaders of organizations than before. In response to this, leaders of different organizations spend all endeavors conserving resources and ensuring environmental sustainability. In this context, transformational leaders have the capacity to ensure the green performance of their organization. The purpose of this study is to test the link between green transformational leadership (GTL), green innovation (GI), corporate social responsibility (CSR) and green performance (GP) in the hotel industry in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). The study empirically tests the mediating effect of GI and CSR on the link between GTL and GP. The study used a quantitative research method via a pre-test instrument, self-distributed and collected from employees in large hotels at different regions of the KSA. The findings from 732 valid responses, analyzed with structural equation modeling (SEM) showed that GTL had a significant effect on GI (β = +0.72, t-value = 14.603, p &lt; 0.001), CSR (β = +0.58, t-value = 8.511, p &lt; 0.001) and GP (β = +0.17, t-value = 2.585, p &lt; 0.001). Moreover, GI and CSR had a direct positive effect on GP (β = +0.10, t-value = 2.866, p &lt; 0.01 and β = +0.61, t-value = 4.358, p &lt; 0.001, respectively). GI had a partial mediation effect (p = 0.048 &lt; 0.05) on the link between GTL and GP. On the other hand, CSR had a perfect mediation effect (p = 0.077 &gt; 0.05) on the link between GTL and GP. This reflects the vital part that CSR plays in this relationship, which can be changed based on the status of CSR. In addition, this reflects the value of CSR in achieving GP, which contributes to the achievement of environmental sustainability at a national level (i.e., the Green Saudi Initiative) at a regional level (i.e., the Green Middle East Initiative) and at an international level (i.e., UNSDGs).

Saudi Arabia aims to achieve the principles of sustainable development goals (SDG) in all aspects of life in accordance with its ambitious vision 2030, especially in the field of sustainable passengers and freight transportation. Hyperloop technology can be considered as an excellent sustainable solution for the future of transportation in Saudi Arabia as a result of the availability of auxiliary ingredients, such renewable energy resources and the necessary infrastructure required enhancing the future mobility technology. Hyperloop can reduce the travel time between Saudi cities at a cost equivalent to ticket prices compatible with forms of mass passenger transportation. Accordingly, the Hyperloop technology can be more efficient in terms of energy consumption through the application of renewable energy resources, which makes this technology very attractive to the Saudi Arabia. The present paper discusses the feasibility of Hyperloop technology in Saudi Arabia in technical and economic perspectives including basic performance and cost analysis. Moreover, the integration of different renewable energy recourses, such as solar and hydrogen energy is also discussed. Three major energy systems were reviewed in depth: electrical energy derived from typical fossil fuels and two renewable energy systems based on solar energy, which can be utilized as a primary source of energy or to produce green hydrogen. The overall estimated cost of the three distinct power supply systems was compared using 2022 prices as a benchmark. In comparison to the electrical system and the solar-hydrogen system, the overall cost of the Hyperloop-hydrogen system is the most expensive power supply system. It is expected that the use of Hyperloop technology in Saudi Arabia will be a motivating factor in achieving the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 in the transportation sector and as a catalyst for high technology through its requirements for artificial intelligence programs and computer-based operational systems. It can also achieve a significant increase in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by providing jobs and opportunities for young Saudi men and women in the high-technology sector.

Abstract The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has achieved a rate of 69% in development sustainability level and ranked 101st out of 157 countries participating in the United Nations (UN) Convention of Sustainable Development Achievement. This shows a weakness in the extent of achieving sustainable development in the cities of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Therefore, Makkah city, as one of the most significant cities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, was selected to measure to what extent it achieves sustainable development. The study sought to identify the indicators through which the extent of sustainable development achievement can be measured in Makkah. The values of indicators in Makkah were determined with reference to the accredited authorities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, such as the General Authority for Statistics and the establishment of the Makkah Comprehensive Plan. In addition, the quality-of-life program document was reviewed and links between the sustainable development indicators and livability indicators included in the quality-of-life document were considered. Then, a gap analysis was identified to find out the difference between the status in Makkah and the standard established by the UN and those included in the quality-of-life document. Finally, the study revealed the extent of achieving sustainable development in Makkah, which reached a score of 77.5%. The weaknesses of the city were determined in comparison to the established standards. Initiations and several programs were proposed for the purpose of bridging the gap identified in the study.

This paper attempts to explore sustainable determinants to create new urban areas and developing existing cities in Saudi Arabia. They are looking to enhance their economic resources and social needs by 2030. They announced their vision for the next 15 years based on specific dimensions; social, economic, and urbanization. Saudi Arabia has plenty of challenges and obstacles that face sustainable development. Meanwhile, it has many potentials to play a leading role during the implementation of the 2030 vision. Most of its land is desert and suffers from a lack of potable water resources. Also, it has severe weather conditions. On the other hand, it has one of the most stable economies in the world which is based mainly on petroleum production. It is the second-largest oil producer. It has a big potential for generating renewable energy from solar energy and wind power. In 2030 vision, Saudi Arabia is looking to create new urban areas to support its economy and develop existing cities. NEOM is the largest project of its 2030 vision with approximately budget of 500 billion US dollars. Sustainability is not an option for its vision. It should be the keyword for any development in this country, as a result of its challenges and potentials. Saudi Arabia should work through a strategy which aims to keep environmental, social and economic needs as the main target for creating new urban areas and developing existing cities.

Effective waste management and recycling are essential for sustainable development and environmental conservation. It is a global issue around the globe and emerging in Saudi Arabia. The traditional approach to waste sorting relies on manual labor, which is both time-consuming, inefficient, and prone to errors. Nonetheless, the rapid advancement of computer vision techniques has paved the way for automating garbage classification, resulting in enhanced efficiency, feasibility, and management. In this regard, in this study, a comprehensive investigation of garbage classification using a state-of-the-art computer vision algorithm, such as Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), as well as pre-trained models such as DenseNet169, MobileNetV2, and ResNet50V2 has been presented. As an outcome of the study, the CNN model achieved an accuracy of 88.52%, while the pre-trained models DenseNet169, MobileNetV2, and ResNet50V2, achieved 94.40%, 97.60%, and 98.95% accuracies, respectively. That is considerable in contrast to the state-of-the-art studies in the literature. The proposed study is a potential contribution to automating garbage classification and to facilitating an effective waste management system as well as to a more sustainable and greener future. Consequently, it may alleviate the burden on manual labor, reduce human error, and encourage more effective recycling practices, ultimately promoting a greener and more sustainable future.

Resources such as water, energy, and arable land represent bottlenecks with regard to achieving key sustainability paradigms such as the circular economy (CE). They exhibit vital inputs and outputs for economic development, and they are closely linked to the environmental challenges to the protection of ecosystems, emissions reduction, and sustainable resource use. In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), aridity, large environmental footprints and the reliance on carbon fuels accentuate the importance of the water and energy sectors. This paper analyzes the resource nexus in KSA using the lens of the CE. It examines the relevance of the CE paradigm, and presents current progress, interventions and policy initiatives to promote this paradigm in natural resource sectors and subsectors such as desalination, electricity production, urban mobility, and agricultural water use. The current directions in KSA show a heightened engagement with sustainability issues, including significant projects related to the CE. Guided by the KSA (SAV 2030), several interventions exist in the energy-related sectors aimed at promotion of renewables, decarbonization of electricity production, energy efficiency in the built environment, carbon capture, and sustainable mobility. Similarly, the water sector has been progressing towards sustainable (and solar) desalination, water reuse and ecosystems-based solutions. However, the current efforts should be better embedded within larger policies such as the SAV 2030, the Green Middle East Initiative, and the Circular Carbon Economy. Moreover, explicit and more targeted CE strategies are needed in order to develop a comprehensive and more participatory approach towards promoting the CE, particularly in prominent areas such as water and energy. The paper provides best practices and highlights key policies for enhancing CE and resource-use sustainability and for moving towards a low-carbon and circular production in KSA or other carbon-exporting countries.
