title : Decisions for Sustainability Type de document : printed text Auteur : Thomas Dietz, Author Editeur : new york : Cambridge University Press Date de publication : 2023 Nombre de pages : 351p. Dimensions : 25*20 ISBN (ou autre code) : 978-1-00-916942-4 Langue : English (eng) Langue originale : English (eng) Indexation : Leco Résumé : Decisions by individuals, organisations, and nations shape the well-being of humans and other specie s, the environment, and sustainability. Decisions for Sustainability examines how we can make better decisions concerning our future. It incorporates sociological, psychological, and economic perspectives to highlight our strengths and weaknesses in decision-making, and suggest strategies to influence both individual and societal decisions. Sustainability challenges – from local land use and toxic contamination to climate change and biodiversity loss – illustrate how we can improve decision making and what factors lead to conflict. How we use science in the face of uncertainty is also examined, and a range of ethical criteria for good decisions are proposed. Emphasizing the need for diversity in decision making and clarifying the relationship between reform and societal transformation, this book provides a comprehensive view of what we know about decision-making, and how we can do better in the face of sustainability challenges.

title : Marine Plastics: Innovative Solutions to Tackling Waste Type de document : printed text Auteur : Siv Marina Flo Grimstad, Author Editeur : norway : Springer Date de publication : 2023 Nombre de pages : 274p. Dimensions : 24*17 ISBN (ou autre code) : 978-3-031-31057-7 Langue : English (eng) Langue originale : English (eng) Indexation : Leco Résumé : This open access book reflects aims of the Blue Circular Economy (BCE) project, which focused on sma ll and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) aiming to create value using circular economy concepts related to products and services within fishing gear recycling in the Northern Periphery and Arctic (NPA) area. Cluster establishment and operation were carried out in collaboration with academia, industry and government agencies following a triple-helix approach. Discarded fishing gear constitutes a large part of marine plastics. Preventing future discharge of fishing gear into the ocean is a vital step in combating plastic pollution. Circular economy is one of the tools in the European Green deal, targeting waste minimisation. Closing the loop for waste fishing nets by transferring them to a resource could be a solution for preventing discharge at sea: exploring this opportunity is at the core of this book.

title : Marine Pollution – Monitoring, Management and Mitigation : Monitoring, Management and Mitigation Type de document : printed text Auteur : Amanda Reichelt-Brushett, Author Editeur : austaralia : Springer Date de publication : 2023 Nombre de pages : 369p. Dimensions : 29*21 ISBN (ou autre code) : 978-3-031-10126-7 Langue : English (eng) Langue originale : English (eng) Indexation : Leco Résumé : The study of marine environments inevitably involves considering the problem of marine pollution, wh ich includes questions that focus on the essential need to ensure the long-term health of these exceptional ecosystems and the lives and livelihoods they support. The open access textbook "Marine Pollution: monitoring, management and mitigation" approaches these questions in a practical and highly readable format. It gives newcomers to the field background and perspective through the first comprehensive, multidisciplinary exploration of the topic. The topic is indeed complex, requiring the integration of the natural sciences and chemistry with management, policymakers, industry and all of us who are users of the marine environment. The textbook was written by leading experts to especially prepare graduates for a career in marine pollution studies. At the same time, it is relevant for anyone invested in the marine environment with a will to reduce their impacts. The chapters can easily be used independently and are also connected through the cross-referencing of related content. The introductory chapter provides a historical account of marine pollution and explores the fundamental physicochemical conditions of seawater. Two full chapters cover the requisite resources for ensuring success in field and laboratory studies. Then, chapter by chapter the book dives into to the various types of marine pollutants. In closing, it discusses the challenges of understanding multiple stressors and presents mitigation and restoration practices, along with a global overview of marine pollution legislation. We envisioned this textbook as being open access for the very reason we created it: this topic calls for global contributions and champions, and financial restraints should not limit access to this knowledge.

title : Moving Toward Net-Zero Carbon Society : Challenges and Opportunities Type de document : printed text Auteur : Hsing-Hao Wu, Author Editeur : taiwan : Springer Date de publication : 2023 Nombre de pages : 179p. Dimensions : 24*17 ISBN (ou autre code) : 978-3-031-24544-2 Langue : English (eng) Langue originale : English (eng) Indexation : Leco Résumé : This open access book explores various issues concerning the net-zero emission achievement, ranging from carbon pricing, carbon trade schemes, energy transition, ecological conservation, and carbon sinks, as well as the economic and social impacts of introducing carbon neutral policies in the Asia-Pacific region. The extreme flooding and drought problems, crop yield problems, and habitat changes brought about by climate change have seriously threatened the ecosystem and human survival, forcing people to rethink environmental management policies and limits on economic development. In the post-COVID-19 era, it is indispensable to adopt a more proactive climate change adaptation policy and establish bilateral cooperation with international partners who value climate change. 2021 is a critical year, and the leaders of major industrial countries at the recently concluded G7 meeting jointly stated the common objective seeking the establishment of carbon-neutral international community by the mid of the century. Major carbon-emitting countries or entities such as the European Union, US, Japan, Korea, China, and India have proposed specific timetables for net-zero carbon emissions and carbon neutrality before or at the COP26. Policy-makers around the world would also work closely with scientists, experts, and enterprises seeking appropriate policy instruments such as the development of carbon tax, carbon pricing, carbon sinks, global or regional carbon emission trade schemes, energy transitions, and other carbon-neutral policies moving toward net-zero emission society by the mid of the century. At a time when carbon pricing policies are being formulated, climate change related laws and policies will reshape the global governance and industrial layout during the period of 2021–-2030, and it is critical to move toward energy and industrial transformation, ecological conservation, and sustainable agricultural development.
