Описание: This book addresses energy footprints in the food and textile sectors. Each footprint case study presents essential background information and discusses the scientific consensus, methodological framework, assessment checklist, calculation tools and techniques, applications, challenges and limitations. More importantly, the book explores the application of each indicator/framework in various industrial sectors and the associated challenges, as well as outlooks for the future – essential considerations, given that energy consumption and conservation are the primary elements in any industry’s sustainability strategy.

Описание: This compilation examines international standards relating to the use of antimicrobials, covering their full life cycle and impacts on human, animal and environmental health. It identifies existing instruments and standards in order to both guide their implementation and inform discussions for the development of future instruments on antimicrobial use.
The compilation is structured around the life cycle of antimicrobials: production, marketing authorization and regulatory approval; selection, procurement and supply; responsible and prudent use; and, ultimately, disposal by the end user. Environmental instruments are included throughout this life cycle, as antimicrobial emissions into the environment can occur at different stages, from spillage during the production process to the disposal of expired products and related waste and wastewater.
In terms of methodology used to collect information, the initial search examined relevant databases and instruments from organizations that play a leading international role in managing antimicrobial resistance, particularly the OIE, FAO, UNEP and WHO.

Описание:
Demand for water in agricultural, municipal, industrial, and environmental uses is growing. More frequent and severe extreme weather conditions now exacerbate water shortages in many locations and existing infrastructure to store and release water rarely has the capacity to both prevent floods during wet periods and meet demand during drought periods. Competition among sectors adds pressure not only on water infrastructure, but also on management policies and allocation institutions.
This book of contributed chapters assesses the performance of existing infrastructure, institutions and policies under different climate variability scenarios. It also provides suggestions for minimizing conflict over scarce water resources. More flexible water-allocation institutions and management policies, and better tools for decision-making under uncertainty will be required to maximize society's net benefit from less reliable water resources. The chapters show how incentives for individuals to conserve water, and policies for helping vulnerable populations prepare for and recover from extreme events, will also need to be improved.
This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Natural Resources Policy Research.
Описание: This book presents the findings of case studies on forecasting climate change and its impacts on water availability, irrigation water requirements, floods and droughts, reservoir inflows and hydropower generation, and crop yield in specific basins of Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, Myanmar, and Vietnam.
