Описание: The worldwide consumption of resources is causing environmental damage at a rate that cannot be sustained. Apart from the resulting environmental and health problems, this trend could threaten economic growth due to rapidly decreasing natural resources and costly solutions. The public sector has a responsibility to stimulate the marketplace in favor of the provision of more resource-efficient and less polluting goods, services, and works in order to support environmental and wider sustainable development objectives.

Описание: Continuation along current development pathways is not sustainable. Available technology and production practices and the consumption patterns of modern societies are leading to global warming and ecological destruction. Business as usual is not an option. There is an urgent need to find a new development paradigm that ensures environmental sustainability while managing to provide, now and in the future, a decent livelihood for all of humankind. In Technology and Innovation for Sustainable Development, experts in the area provide a variety of insights about the technical transformation needed for sustainable development. It spells out the behavioural and policy changes that would need to accompany the next technological transformation, taking into account the complexity of inducing technological change in the energy and agricultural sectors. The assessment suggests that this will require major, but doable improvements in national innovation systems and major, but affordable shifts in investment patterns and related macroeconomic adjustments.

Описание: The COVID-19 pandemic intensifies underlying structural obstacles and systemic inefficiencies. However, it also provokes the accelerated adoption of innovations made possible by the already growing technological development, before being accompanied by necessary institutional and systemic adjustments. This leads to multidimensional crises, while also opening new socio-economic challenges and prospects globally.
Socio-Economic Sustainability in the Post-Pandemic Era engages global aspects of the crisis by means of standard and innovative economic policies at the national and international level. It confronts the challenges facing businesses and reveals models of effective transformations and strategies in the present circumstances. The book further investigates individual and collective societal challenges in light of sustaining our constantly upgrading humanitarian values in the 21st century. Covering topics such as fiscal adjustment measures, sustainable marketing, and state-society relations, this premier reference source is a dynamic resource for government officials, sociologists, economists, business leaders, human resource managers, libraries, students and faculty of higher education, researchers, and academicians.

Описание:
Experiments in geoengineering - intentionally manipulating the Earth's climate to reduce global warming - have become the focus of a vital debate about responsible science and innovation. Drawing on three years of sociological research working with scientists on one of the world's first major geoengineering projects, this book examines the politics of experimentation. Geoengineering provides a test case for rethinking the responsibilities of scientists and asking how science can take better care of the futures that it helps bring about.
This book gives students, researchers and the general reader interested in the place of science in contemporary society a compelling framework for future thinking and discussion.
