Protection Motivation and Food Waste Reduction Strategies
“Ugly food” refers to agricultural products that are discarded because their appearance is not attractive, even though their nutritional content is unaffected.

Sustainability education (SE), also known as education for sustainability (EfS) or education for SD (ESD), is recognized as an internal element of the fourth (i.e., quality education) of the seventeen United Nations’ (UN) SD goals and has been incorporated into school curricula around the world.

Consumer–Brand Congruence and Consumer-Celebrity Congruence
The consumer–celebrity congruence moderated the indirect effect of consumer–brand congruence on brand preference and boycott recommendations, but not purchase intention.

Sustainable Development of China's Religious Charity Policy
To effectively implement religious public welfare and charity activity policies, it is necessary to balance the tensions of all parties and create a strong executive force. In view of the current weak locality of religious charity policies, the evasive attitudes and behaviors of religious charity organizations towards policies, and the multiple supervisory layers of government departments, there is an urgent need to establish a policy implementation model led by the government, the main body of the organization, the support of the believers, and the mutual benefit of the community. The legislature attaches great importance to the establishment of a complete system of institutions, the formation of efficient enforcement teams by law enforcement agencies, adherence to legal administration, scientific administration, and innovative management methods and concepts, and creates an environment conducive to the healthy development of a religious charity. Religious charity organizations attach importance to organizational operations and professional services; linking social resources legally and efficiently; strengthening the cooperation and exchange of technology, services, and experience in the field of charity; promoting the professional development of religious charities; and changing religious charity organizations or activities from relying solely on religious beliefs and the status quo of providing services with enthusiasm.

Informal Social Support on China Older Health
Population aging is an inevitable global trend. The United Nations stipulates that the countries and regions where more than 10% of the population is over 60 years old will become aging societies. In China, the population aged 60 and higher was 253.88 million in 2019, accounting for 18.1% of China’s total population (National Bureau of Statistics 2020), which far exceeds the international standards of aging. Furthermore, the proportion of the older population is still rising.
