Описание: Principles of Environmental Engineeringis intended for a course in introductory environmental engineering for sophomore- or junior-level students. This text provides a background in fundamental science and engineering principles of environmental engineering for students who may or may not become environmental engineers. Principles places more emphasis on scientific principles, ethics, and safety, and focuses less on engineering design.
The text exposes students to a broad range of environmental topics-including risk management, water quality and treatment, air pollution, hazardous waste, solid waste, and ionizing radiation as well as discussion of relevant regulations and practices. The book also uses mass and energy balance as a tool for understanding environmental processes and solving environmental engineering problems.

Описание: This new and expanded edition builds upon the first edition’s accessible and comprehensive overview of the interdisciplinary field of sustainability. The focus is on furnishing solutions and equipping the student with both conceptual understanding and technical skills for the workplace. Each chapter explores one aspect of the field, first introducing concepts and presenting issues, then supplying tools for working toward solutions. Techniques for management and measurement as well as case studies from around the world are provided. The second edition includes a complete update of the text, with increased coverage of major topics including the Anthropocene; complexity; resilience; environmental ethics; governance; the IPCC’s latest findings on climate change; Sustainable Development Goals; and new thinking on native species and novel ecosystems. Chapters include further reading and discussion questions. The book is supported by a companion website with links, detailed reading lists, glossary, and additional case studies, together with projects, research problems, and group activities, all of which focus on real-world problem solving of sustainability issues. The textbook is designed to be used by undergraduate college and university students in sustainability degree programs and other programs in which sustainability is taught.
Описание: Ideal for students, researchers and industrialists working in green sustainable chemistry, industrial coatings, adhesives, inks and printing technologies.
Название: Sustainable Healthy Diets: Guiding Principles ISBN: 9251318751 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789251318751 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 3742.00 р. Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии.
Описание: These guiding principles are the result of an Expert Consultation jointly led by FAO and WHO in July 2019. They take a holistic approach to diets, and consider international nutrition recommendations, the environmental cost of food production and consumption, as well as adaptability to local social, cultural and economic contexts. The term “Sustainable Healthy Diets” was agreed upon during the Consultation to encompass the two dimensions – sustainability and healthiness of diets.
Sustainable Healthy Diets are dietary patterns that promote all dimensions of individuals’ health and wellbeing, have low environmental impact, are accessible, affordable, and culturally acceptable. They aim at people’s wellbeing at all life stages for present and future generations. They contribute to preventing all forms of malnutrition and reducing the risk of diet-related non-communicable diseases, while also supporting biodiversity.
These guiding principles emphasize the role of food consumption and diets in contributing to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals at country level, including Goals 1 (No Poverty), 2 (Zero Hunger), 3 (Good Health and Well-Being), 4 (Quality Education), 5 (Gender Equality) and 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), and 13 (Climate Action). They are translated into clear and non-technical messaging to be used by governments and other actors in policy-making and communications.
Описание: The Moorad Choudhry Global Banking Series edited by Dr Moorad Choudhry The Moorad Choudhry Global Banking series is a new collection of books aimed at market practitioners, academics and graduate students in key areas of global banking. It covers core topics such as risk management, corporate governance and strategy, as well as recent developments affecting the future of banking, including digital banking, machine learning, fintech, blockchain and the latest in product development. The series is designed to be all-encompassing, with titles ranging from technical and specialist areas such as derivatives central clearing to wider areas of social interest such as corporate governance and corporate social responsibility in banking. It aims to present current and future best-practice in all aspects of banking, from the world’s leading writers on this topic. Authors will be experienced and respected practitioners and academics from globally recognised institutions. The series engages a global perspective on the changing nature of banking. It seeks authors with innovative approaches to the subject or an interest in challenging established conventions. It welcomes both monographs and edited collections that share these aims. We are looking for interesting new book proposals, which might include: • Individual monographs which allow research ideas to be developed at greater length than might be possible in journal articles • Edited volumes which draw together multiple contributors from different organisations and institutions around a particular theme • Technical publications covering specialist topics • Contributions which offer novel approaches to any aspect of banking.

Описание: This text presents a unique integration of both mainstream and ecological approaches to environmental economics, introducing relevant mainstream economic theories and methodologies while incorporating the idea that it is essential to focus on the links between economic, social, and ecological systems.
Описание: This book provides a detailed treatment of the ecological, economic and social impacts in the context of environmental impact assessment (EIA) and makes clear the necessary link between EIA and the sustainability principles of protecting biodiversity, risk aversion, and inter and intra-generational equity.
Описание: The report suggests economically and environmentally sustainable management considering challenges that involve climate change. The study proposes a strategic planning framework that covers the holistic, technical, economic, social, and environmental aspects of integrated water resources management and development of the river system. It also contributes to strategic planning from a basin-wide perspective by supporting the design of the Dudh Koshi Storage Hydroelectric Project.
Описание: Conflicts frequently arise over environmental issues such as land use, natural resource management, and laws and regulation. This book is a primer on causes of and solutions to such conflicts. Joshua D. Fisher provides a foundational overview of the theory and practice of collaborative approaches to managing environmental disputes.
