    Households are characterised by diff erent life cycles with diff erent income structures and expenses. They have to be considered and planned in ti me, so that their fi nancial background can be ensured. Regarding effi ciency households are able to make their opti mal choices from diff erent alternati ves on the basis of their own system of objecti ves. In many cases households are unable to make these eff ecti ve decisions, which is usually due to the low level of their fi nancial culture. There are certain points in people’s lives when it is useful to have a large amount of savings. One of these points is the old age when people cannot earn a suffi cient amount of money. The other one takes place when someone starts his or her career or a family and when they make a living so as to be able to support themselves. One alternati ve of household life cycles is to set up their own business and operate it. Even during the operati on of  interprises we can diff erenti ate several life cycles. Households taking up enterprises are usually able to plan the necessary fi nancial background to launch their businesses and to prepare business plans for a profi table operati on as well as adjust them to changes, which is not an easy task. In our research we write about savings and we describe their roles in given life cycles. This writi ng includes some important elements of our research.

    This paper presents the Life Cycle Assessment of the wood gas powered car. I have compared the results with the data of the gas powered cars. The wood gas powered cars will be presented from their invention up to this day. I will describe in detail the chemical composition of different types of trees, the heating value and the reaction equations of gasification. I have made a cost analysis and I have concluded that if wood gas is used as petrol, the costs can be reduced significantly.

    Experience motivations based on the hierarchy of needs receive different emphasis in different stages of the life cycle. The basis for the creation of experiences is variety, activity and connection, as travel motivations in addition to the need for relaxation and rest. From the perspective of tourism product development, it is increasingly difficult to form homogeneous demand groups and offer them segment-specific experiences. The examination of the tourism experience behavior of the recently entered generation Z, which is formulated as a research question, is an urgent problem. The analysis of the responses related to experience motivation from the medium-sized sample of the targeted generation provides an opportunity to identify and group the motivations and images from the experience behavior of the age group, and to determine segment specificity. Based on the value and intensity of the individual experience attitudes, four main segments can be distinguished in the surveyed generation Z sample: those who mainly seek calm, safe relaxation, those who mainly get to know each other, those who mainly seek relationships and those who mainly seek challenges. The results of the research contribute to a more precise definition of the experiential behavior of Generation Z tourists.

  • The impact of increasing environmental expectations and forced paperless administration on corporate sustainability

    Current environmental legislation, directives, and expectations of the stakeholders put increasing pressure on companies' sustainability efforts. Such efforts include applying life cycle analysis methods, resource-saving technologies, low-emission practices, and voluntary ecological rules. Digitization facilitates these efforts, and the forced situation created by the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the digital transformation process even more. Many companies were pressured to find solutions that legally and effectively bypass personal presence. Paper-based administration was restrained, giving hope for the broader spread of entirely paperless businesses. The study aims to present Hungarian companies' incentives for environmental protection and emphasize how paper-free offices are an essential milestone in sustainable development.
