The current study investigates carbon neutrality targets for the US's case while analyzing the role of environmental-related research and development (ERR&D) and renewable energy research and development (RER&D). This study also considered economic growth (GDP) and energy productivity (EP) as controlled variables. Utilizing the time series data over the period from 1990 to 2019, this study used various econometric approaches, such as unit root tests and cointegration tests for stationarity and the long-run association between variables, respectively. This study's main econometric regression tools, such as dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS) and fully modified ordinary least square (FMOLS), are utilized. The empirical findings reveal that economic growth played a negative role in achieving carbon neutrality targets. However, EP, RER&D, and ERR&D positively contribute to carbon neutrality target achievement by reducing atmospheric CO2 emissions. Moreover, this study found a cointegration relationship between the study variables. The bidirectional causality is found between ERR&D and CO2 emissions, while a unidirectional causality is observed, running from exogenous variables towards CO2 emissions. Based on the empirical findings, this study recommends expanding the investment and expenditures in both ERR&D and RER&D sectors to attain carbon neutrality.

Two main strategies, home and hotel isolation, have been used to isolate COVID-19 cases in most countries. Both have proven to be somewhat medically effective, but the costs to produce the desired outcome remain unclear. We used a decision tree model to compare alternatives and a simulation model to determine the household structure and provide recommendations for the most cost-effective way to isolate a COVID-19 patient in two Australian States, New South Wales (NSW) and Western Australia (WA). The results show that although the average cost of isolating a confirmed case at home is lower than that of a hotel quarantine, it is demonstrable that the decision depends on household size and the ages of household members. If the household members’ ages are old or the household size is large, the expected mean cost of home quarantine might be higher than hotel quarantine. Our study, therefore, provides the government with a cost-effective insight into making quarantine policies.

The unanticipated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has hit global business heavily, disrupting the management of human resources across numerous industries. More than 500 articles (indexed in Scopus and the Web of Science) on the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on emerging human resources issues and related practices were published from 1 January 2020 to 31 January 2021. In this study, we conduct a systematic literature review on emerging studies in the business and management field to explore what the emerging human resource issues are during the COVID-19 pandemic and propose related practices to solve these issues. The analysis of the published literature identifies nine main human resource issues across 13 industries. The findings of this study suggest that COVID-19 has enormous impact on conventional human resource management and requires the theoretical and empirical attention of researchers. The propositions nominate related human resource practices to deal with emerging human resources issues and identify several research venues for future studies in this field.
