    Part planetary love poem, part 24/7 news flash, the hypnotic poems of This Connection of Everyone with Lungs wrap with equal, angular grace around lovers and battleships. These poems hear the tracer fire in a bird's song and capture cell division and troop deployments in the same expansive thought. They move through concentric levels of association and embrace —from the space between the hands to the mesosphere and back again—touching everything in between. The book's focus shifts between local and global, public and private, individual and social. Everything gets in: through all five senses, through windows, between your sheets, under your skin

    Employing the art-collection records of Burton and Emily Hall Tremaine, we consider whether early-stage art investors can be understood as venture capitalists. Because the Tremaines bought artists' work very close to an artwork's creation, with 69% of works in our study purchased within one year of the year when they were made, their collecting practice can best be framed as venture-capital investment in art. The Tremaines also illustrate art collecting as social-impact investment, owing to their combined strategy of art sales and museum donations for which the collectors received a tax credit under US rules. Because the Tremaines' museum donations took place at a time that U.S. marginal tax rates from 70% to 91%, the near "donation parity" with markets, creating a parallel to ESG investment in the management of multiple forms of value.

    Are investors willing to give up a higher return if the investment generates positive environmental impact? We investigate this question with a decision experiment among crowdfunders, where they choose between a higher return or environmental impact. Overall, 65% of investors choose environmental impact at the expense of a higher return for sufficiently large impact, 14% choose impact independent of the magnitude of impact, while 21% choose the higher return independent of impact. Combining the experimental data with historical investments, we find that investors allocate a larger share of funds to green projects if they value environmental impact more, and if they expect green projects to be more profitable. These findings suggest that investors have a preference for positive environmental impact, and satisfy it by investing in green projects. We further show that the preference for environmental impact is distinct from a preference for positive social impact. Finally, we introduce new survey measures of impact for future use, which are experimentally validated and predict field behavior.

    An order "Banning the Open-pit Method of Mining for Copper, Gold, Silver, and Complex Ores in the Country" was issued by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) on April 27, 2017. Justifications to the order included the past environmental disasters caused by mining operations, which were then employing the open-pit mining method and indicated that such mining method poses risks to host communities and to the environment. The order affects prospective mining projects that would employ the open-pit mining method. On December 23, 2021, the ban was lifted on the premise that the "Revitalization of the Mineral Resource Industry as One Measure to Achieve Economic Growth Amidst the Crisis Caused by the COVID-19 Pandemic." The rationale behind opposing development perspectives/sentiments on open-pit mining was reviewed and the ecological integrity implications related to open-pit mining was discussed. Facts were cited and challenges or highlevel opportunities for improvement on various aspects of regulating mining activities, in general, were flagged. The method of mining (i.e. surface/open pit or underground) and type of commodity extracted (i.e. metallics, non-metallics were emphasized as not the only major factors to cause unacceptable outcomes from mining, such as potentials for environmental disasters or negative impact to social welfare. Two major directions to take were provided and options moving forward in order to optimize benefits from approved mining projects were enumerated.
