商品描述

The prevailing global environmental crisis is primarily because of non-standardized parameters for environmental regulation. Unplanned expansion of economic activities, consideration for environmental conservation and several associated problems are emerging due to degradation in quality of ambient environment such as clean air, safe drinking water and quality of food, particularly in developing nations. Due to poor/casual execution of EIA protocol, newly developing countries are preferred destination for establishing pollution emitting industries, which results in degradation and depletion of natural resources. Lack of environmental policy intervention is another major attraction for establishing such industries in these nations.

In order to ensure sustainable development, the highest priority issues include the monitoring and eradication of environmental problems which arise due to economic development. Initiation of any form of economic development primarily results in loss of forests and thus biodiversity, followed by deterioration in quality of air and contamination of natural resources. The worst impact of non-standardized economic development is the contamination of air, water and soil.

Sustainable development ensures responsible interface with the environment to minimize the depletion or degradation of natural resources and ensure long term environmental quality. It involves integrated approaches in understanding the importance of environmental management systems and policy inventions leading to improved environmental performance.

The present book is proposed to address the environmental concerns associated with economic development and approaches involved to attain sustainable economic development, which include monitoring of the quality of air, deforestation, quality of water resources, soil erosion and degradation of the natural environment.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

全球環境危機的主要原因在於環境規範的參數缺乏標準化。經濟活動的無計畫擴張、對環境保護的考量以及多種相關問題,正因為環境品質的惡化而浮現,尤其是在發展中國家,如清潔空氣、安全飲用水和食品品質等。由於環境影響評估(EIA)協議的執行不力,發展中國家成為設立污染排放產業的首選地,這導致自然資源的退化和枯竭。缺乏環境政策介入也是這些國家設立此類產業的另一大吸引力。

為了確保可持續發展,最高優先事項包括監測和根除因經濟發展而產生的環境問題。任何形式的經濟發展的啟動,主要會導致森林的喪失,進而影響生物多樣性,隨之而來的是空氣品質的惡化和自然資源的污染。非標準化經濟發展的最嚴重影響是空氣、水和土壤的污染。

可持續發展確保與環境的負責任互動,以最小化自然資源的枯竭或退化,並確保長期的環境品質。它涉及綜合方法,以理解環境管理系統和政策介入的重要性,從而改善環境表現。

本書旨在解決與經濟發展相關的環境問題,以及為實現可持續經濟發展所涉及的方法,包括空氣品質監測、森林砍伐、水資源品質、土壤侵蝕和自然環境的退化。
