Economic development brings about urbanisation which may result in rapid housing expansion. The health and well-being of communities is often not considered as a priority of urbanisation with the pressure for developing better economies. Sustainability principles in housing developments are perceived to be able to enhance and to improve the quality of living. The approach to sustainability can, however, be interpreted and prioritised differently. Many developing countries such as Malaysia are depending upon industrialisation for the development of their economies. Continuing urbanisation and industrialisation in these countries indirectly creates tensions between the need for a better built environment, and the push for economic growth. One specific phenomena in Malaysia is the introduction of the mixed-use urban neighbourhood, whereby residential development is netsled within the industrial establishments. On one hand, this helps to create job opportunities and improve the local economy. On the other, it creates concerns in the relations to the house planning, and to the well-being of the residents. These have potential exposures to industrial activities that are associated with environmental problems, such as, poor air quality, local temperature increases, and excessive noise levels. This research applied the current international trends of sustainability practices in housing development in searching for the most appropriate strategies for developing sustainable residential-industrial neighborhoods. Cross reference to other countries strategies and experiences can be adaptation for Malaysian conditions. A residential-industrial community in the city of Pasir Gudang Johor, Malaysia, has been selected as a case study in order to examine the perceived problems of indoor environmental quality in such environments. The result of a questionnaire survey and in-situ measurement indicates that they are facing indoor environmental problems. A set of recommendations for housing guidelines which are tailored for local Malaysians conditions have been identified, and have potential for improving the housing development guidelines and policies for mixed-use community living. Comprehensive strategies will need to be developed to achieve housing development sustainability goals. The development of Master Planned Communities (MPC's) is suggested to be appropriate mechanism to developing planning controls. This will ensure the improvement of indoor environmental quality of living in residential-industrial housing developments in Malaysia. It is anticipated that this research will make a positive contribution to developing decision-making procedures that are appropriate to achieving the goals of sustainable housing development in relation to mixed-used residential housing, It is also expected that this research will assist in establishment of a unified national sustainable housing strategy, and in the rationalised adoption of a master planned community approach.

ABSTRACT AGRI-TOURISM: AS A NEW ELEMENT OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT DemirbaS Topcu, Elif MS., City and Regional Planning Department, Urban Design Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Baykan Gü
nay October 2007, 187 Pages This thesis study is developed under the lights of new developments related to rural tourism sector in the world. With the effects of emerging term &lsquo
sustainability&rsquo
in 1980s, sustainable tourism concept has found new implementation areas. The increasing demand on the tourism activities taking place in rural areas has lead the governments to find ways of benefiting from this tendency in a sustainable way. Since the early 1990s, a new type of rural tourism called as agri-tourism has been developed as a concept that integrates agriculture and tourism activities in the western world. Whether it is evaluated as a tourism or agriculture development element, it is a new element of country planning. Nowadays, it is seen that there is also a new tendency for agri-tourism at local level through local initiatives in Turkey. Although there is still no governmental regulation for agri-tourism activities, political and practical developments demonstrate that the sector should be evaluated as a planning element for Turkey. The main purpose of this study is examining the rural development element characteristic of agri-tourism concept as an element for enhancing the rural tourism activities in Turkey. To achieve the purpose, two examples from EU- Lublin and Tuscany Regions were examined to understand the dynamics of agri-tourism as a planning element. For these study interpretative-comparative-textual method is used. Accordingly, the present condition in Turkey is evaluated through the obtained data and SWOT Analysis method was employed for analyzing the data. Accordingly, some suggestions are presented for developing agri-tourism sector in Turkey.

The purpose of this thesis is to find out what it takes for entrepreneurs to negotiate strategically in order to ultimately influence systemic change towards sustainability. It focuses on the challenges sustainability entrepreneurs face as they negotiate their twin objectives of social mission and positive cashflow during their collaborative processes. To answer this purpose, I conducted a participatory action research with the entrepreneurs at Hubs Westminster, King’s Cross and Islington in London. The Hub is a global community of people from every profession, background and culture working to tackle the world's most pressing social, cultural and environmental challenges. The Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD) was used as a lens for the overall research while the Seven Elements Theory of Negotiation targeted the negotiation process. The thesis demonstrates that some core challenges need to be addressed in the entrepreneur’s preparation for their negotiation; and that entrepreneurs can intentionally favourably position themselves through their strategic actions in their attempt to meet the need to combine economic objectives with concerns about social responsibility and environmentalism. The implication of the thesis lies in better awareness on how to aim at creative outcomes during collaborations. Its originality lies in shedding light in this niche and rarely touched combination of sustainability, entrepreneurship and negotiation.

Esta dissertação, baseada na análise da gestão ambiental como elemento de estratégia empresarial, trata de um estudo de caso cujo objeto é a PETROBRAS, no período de 1990 até os dias atuais. O objetivo principal foi analisar as motivações, a importância e os resultados com que a gestão ambiental vem sendo incorporada ao processo de planejamento estratégico da PETROBRAS. O objetivo secundário foi analisar as implicações das questões ambientais no comportamento das indústrias, num contexto global, e a importância da gestão ambiental em mercado de franca competitividade. A pesquisa, desenvolvida com fontes primárias e, principalmente, secundárias, mostrou que a história vem sendo pontuada por fortes reações do meio industrial às graves questões ambientais globais e que a gestão ambiental tem tido uma crescente percepção quanto à sua função como instrumento de vantagem competitiva. Quanto à PETROBRAS, percebe-se uma correspondência entre as questões ambientais mundiais, a evolução de sua gestão ambiental sob a ótica de suas políticas e diretrizes, e a importância estratégica desta no processo de planejamento. A análise dos resultados dessa evolução, contudo, é prejudicada pela falta de objetivos e metas corporativos bem definidos e correlacionados ao planejamento estratégico, a despeito dos muitos e importantes programas ambientais desenvolvidos pela empresa nesse período. Conclui-se que a gestão ambiental da companhia, hoje baseada na norma ISO 14001 e no primeiro Plano Estratégico de SMS, formulado em 2002, após os acidentes da Baía da Guanabara e do Paraná em 2000, e da plataforma P-36 em 2001, possui elementos importantes e objetivos bem definidos para fazer frente aos impactos ambientais potenciais de seu processo produtivo, além de exceder as exigências legais, num caminho semelhante ao adotado pelas grandes empresas de petróleo do mundo, que buscam atender aos requisitos do desenvolvimento sustentável e às exigências de cidadania corporativa. Com o objetivo de dar consistência às estratégias de SMS da PETROBRAS, melhorar sua imagem de forma sustentável, criar um efetivo diferencial e firmar o seu posicionamento competitivo, recomenda-se um grande esforço de articulação e desdobramento das políticas e diretrizes corporativas, além do desenvolvimento de cultura fortemente conservacionista, através do fortalecimento da consciência ecológica de todos os empregados.

Due to the rapid economic growth and industrial development in China, the constantly soaring upGDP has made many people believe that the golden age of China has come. But along with the boomingdevelopment, the neglect and violation of the natural environment has brought intensive discussion and criticism.Moreover, during past decades, frequent natural disasters and extreme weathers resulting from human activitieshave made local dwellers suffer from economical loss, as well as physical harm. Thus more attention fromwithin the country has been drawn to the environmental issues; media reports, national debates and researcheshave been going on for years. Among which, the problem of air pollution has caught a large public concern,especially when the PM 2.5 in Chinese metropolises like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xi’an etc. exceeded900 micrograms per cubic meter. In previous analysis of PM 2.5 pollutants in developing countries, it has beenfound that most of those aerosol particles are from the burning of fossil fuels and biomass, and in China’s case,coal burning has been blamed largely, due to the fact that the use of coal takes up about 70% of total energyconsumption. Based on data analysis and chemical ratio examination, this thesis is to find out the connectionbetween PM 2.5 and Coal burning in China’s capital city Beijing.

Syftet med studien är att bedöma miljöpåverkan av tre alternativ av väggelement med olika ballastmaterial. Alternativ 1 har 100% krossad återvunnen betong som ballast. Alternativ 2 har ballast av krossat berg. I alternativ 3 består ballasten av naturgrus i fina fraktionerna och krossat berg i grova fraktionerna. Väggelementet i alternativ 3 är en av produkterna som tillverkas av företaget Hedareds Sand och Betong AB (Heda), ett prefabriceringsföretag i Hedared som ligger ca. 17 km utanför Borås. Återvunnen betong har den självklara fördelen att man undviker deponering av betongavfall. Med mindre kostnader och mindre belastning på miljön bidrar detta till hållbar utveckling inom betongindustri. Som metod har livscykelanalys använts. Livscykelanalys är en metod som används för att bedöma miljöpåverkan av en produkt eller en service under hela eller del av sin livstid. När livscykelanalys används för att jämföra olika produkter, vilket är fallet i den här studien, kan man begränsa att studera del av livstiden. I den här studien har man valt att studera de två första skeden av elementens livscykel, dvs anskaffningen av råvaror och transporter av råvaror till anläggningen där elementen tillverkas. Man har antagit att tillverkningsprocessen för alla tre alternativ är samma, varför man exkluderat detta från livscykelanalysen. De kategorier man har valt att undersöka är: klimatpåverkan, förtunning av ozonlagret, försurning, övergödning, skapande av marknära ozon och abiotiska resursutarmning. I studien har två scenario studerats. Det första är att restbetong transporteras från Hedas anläggning till krossanläggning 18 km bort för att sedan transportera ballasten tillbaka till Heda. I det scenariot har det visat sig att alternativ 1 har lägre påverkan än alternativ 3 i alla kategorier. Detta trots att alternativ 3 har färre transportsträckor än alternativ 1. Men det är alternativ 2 som har lägsta påverkan i alla kategorier. En stark orsak är att alternativ 2 har 80 kg mindre cement per kubikmeterelement än de två andra alternativen som har samma recept förutom ballasten. I det andra scenariot antas att krossningen sker vid Hedas anläggning med mobil krossanläggning. Scenariot uppvisar starkt förbättring av alternativ 1 ur miljösynpunkt. Alternativ 2 har i det nya scenariot högre påverkan än alternativ 1 i två av kategorierna (förtunning av ozonlagret +37 % och övergödning +2 %). I de övriga kategorierna är alternativ 2 fortfarande bättre än alternativ 1, även om skillnaderna är små. Alternativ 3 är sämsta för miljön eftersom det har största påverkan i samtliga studerade kategorierna.   I fem av kategorierna är det cementet som dominerar miljöpåverkan. I den sjätte kategorin, förtunning av ozonlagret, är det transporterna som bidrar mest till miljöpåverkan. Sammantaget är påverkan från ballasten förhållandevis mindre avgörande. Därför kan återvunnen betong som ballast till väggelement bli fördelaktig ur miljösynpunkt om den inte medför ökning av andra råvaror framförallt cement för att kompensera eventuella sämre hållfasthet. Samtidigt om logistiken kring återvunnen betong är optimerat så att det inte medför väsentligt fler och längre transportsträckor.
The aim of the study is to assess the environmental impact of three alternatives of walling with different aggregate. Option 1 has 100% crushed recycled concrete aggregate (RCA). Option 2 has aggregate of crushed rock. In option 3, the aggregate consists of natural gravel in the fine fractions and crushed rock in the rough fractions. The wall element in option 3 is one of the products manufactured by the company Hedareds Sand and Betong AB (Heda), a prefabrication company in the Hedared which is located about 17 km outside Borås. RCA has the obvious advantage of avoiding landfilling of concrete waste. With less costs and less burden on the environment contributes to sustainable development in the concrete industry.   Life cycle assessment has been used as a method. Life cycle assessment is a method used to assess the environmental impact of a product or service throughout or part of its lifetime. When life cycle analysis is used to compare different products, as is the case in this study, it can be limited to study part of the lifetime. This study has chosen to study the first two phases of the life cycle of the elements, i.e. the acquisition of raw materials and the transportation of raw materials to the plant where the elements are produced. It has been assumed that the manufacturing process for all three alternatives is the same, which is why it was excluded from the life cycle assessment. The categories chosen to investigate are: Global warming, ozone depletion, acidification, eutrophication, photochemical oxidation and abiotic depletion.   In the study, two scenarios have been studied. The first is that the concrete waste is transported from Hedas plant to crushing plant 18 km away and then transport the ballast back to Heda. In this scenario, option 1 has been shown to have a lower impact than option 3 in all categories. This is even though option 3 has fewer transport distances than option 1. But it's option 2 that has the lowest impact in all categories. A strong cause is that option 2 has 80 kg less cement per cubic meter element than the two other options which have the same recipe except for the aggregate. In the second scenario, it is assumed that the crushing takes place at Hedas plant with mobile crushing plant. The scenario shows a strong improvement in option 1 from an environmental point of view. In the new scenario, option 2 has a higher impact than option 1 in two of the categories (ozone depletion + 37% and eutrophication + 2%). In the other categories, option 2 is still better than option 1, although the differences are small. Option 3 is the worst for the environment as it has the greatest impact in all the studied categories.  In five of the categories, it is the cement that dominates the environmental impact. In the sixth category, the ozone depletion, it is the transport that contributes most to environmental impact. Overall, the influence of the ballast is relatively less decisive. Therefore, RCA to walling can be beneficial from an environmental point of view if it does not lead to an increase in other raw materials above all cement to compensate for any weaker strength. At the same time if the logistics of recycled concrete is optimized so that it does not involve significantly more and longer transport distances.

The Alnö Complex is a Late Precambrian alkaline and carbonatite intrusion (c. 30km2) into Early Proterozoic country rock that extends from the north east, to the north western shoulder of Alnö Island. Carbonatites are rare among volcanic provinces, with Oldoinyo Lengai of northern Tanzania being the only active carbonatite volcano in the world today. The high carbonate mineral volumes and rare earth element (REE) concentrations of carbonatites, in combination with the intrusive-extrusive nature of their suites contribute to the rarity of these rocks. Carbonatites, through their peculiar petrological and geochemical compositions, provide vital insights to the composition and condition of the Earth’s mantle. The genesis of the Alnö carbonatites and their relation to other lithological units at the complex is however, only partially understood. This stems from the epistemological division of carbonatites as having either a ‘magmatic’ or ‘reactive’ origin. This study focuses on sampled carbonatites from the Alnö Complex, employing an oxygen and carbon isotope approach on their native calcite, complemented with petrological and mineralogical methods in order to constrain petrogenesis. As a reference, oxygen and carbon isotope data of calcite from an earlier Alnö investigation as well as from an array of data from comparative alkaline complexes elsewhere are also discussed. The combined data and the derived findings support a scenario that is consistent with the ‘magmatic’ model wherein carbonatites have a primary mantle-derived origin, and prospectively stem from a parent magma akin to that of Oldoinyo Lengai, but have experienced a degree of silicate and sedimentary assimilation. The extraction of the Alnö carbonatites for their rare earth metals is a looming possibility due to the current volatility in the rare earth market. The risks and opportunities involved in this kind of natural resource extraction provide a context wherein sustainable development paradigms can be applied. The capacity of the Alnö environment to withstand the impact of development in the mining sector is discussed through a perspective of establishing a quarry, and quarry-related methods for rare earth extraction.

The sugar cane plantation is present in Brazil since the Portuguese colonization beginning. The techniques used by the sugar cane industry toward production of sugar, and then alcohol, were not worried with preservation of natural resources, being associated, along its history, with environment damages as deforestation, fires, natural biodiversity injuries, water and soil contamination, among others. However, with the growth of social mobilization and the State rules around natural resources preservation and environmental quality, since the mid-twentieth century, the field and the industry suffered a technical reformulation to reduce their environmental liabilities and increase its scale production, at the same time. The growing demand for renewable fuels originated with international agreements to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases intensified the expansion of the sugar cane industry in the areas of Cerrado in Brazil. The adequate climate (settings), soil and topographical conditions of this biome- territory made the success and intensification of this plantations, reconfiguring the areas an restructuring the environmental where they were planted. In micro south-west of Goiás State works ten sugar cane industries and another one being implemented. The goal of this study is set up a series of information about this sector, its transformations in a technical way, passing trough different phases (sugar cane, than alcohol and energetic cane at least) until nowadays, when incorporates the fame of sustainable development provider. In this search, the relationships between environmental policies, especially post-Kyoto, and the expansion of the sector are emphasized. Inside this, we sought to understand how the installation of the sugarcane industry in the micro region of south-west Goiás could offer empirical subsidies, from a socio-spatial analysis of territorial dynamics and legitimacy of the environmental speech made by the environmental sector. The methodology used was semi-structured interviews with those responsible for environment part and with the mill workers; lifting of the environmental legislation related; analysis of the studies and reports of environmental impacts of installed plants; and research of environmental public Agencies assessments. It was found that technological standard used by new plants installed in the micro south-west Goiás allowed minimize some environmental liabilities historically rooted to the sector. However, the intensification of sugar cane cultivation at this micro region can result in new impacts as increase the use of water for irrigation, soil compaction and monoculture. It is necessary therefore, an environmental regulation that covers the specific situation of the sector and consider the situations experienced by local actors in order to preserve environmental quality.
A cultura da cana-de-açúcar está presente no Brasil desde o início do processo da colonização portuguesa. As técnicas utilizadas pela atividade canavieira voltadas para produção do açúcar e posteriormente do álcool não tiveram como base uma preocupação com a preservação dos recursos naturais, sendo associadas, ao longo de sua história, a grandes prejuízos ambientais, como desmatamento, queimadas, perda da biodiversidade natural, contaminação hídrica e dos solos, entre outros. No entanto, com o crescimento da mobilização social e do Estado em torno da preservação dos recursos naturais e da qualidade ambiental a partir de meados do século XX, houve uma reformulação técnica por parte deste setor, tanto no campo como na indústria, com o intuito de diminuir seus passivos ambientais ao mesmo tempo em que aumentava sua escala de produção. A crescente demanda por combustíveis renováveis, originada com os acordos internacionais para diminuir as emissões de gases do efeito estufa, intensificou a expansão do setor sucroenergético nas áreas de Cerrados no Brasil. Devido às condições (configurações) climáticas, pedológicas e topográficas deste bioma-território serem adequadas ao cultivo da cana-de-açúcar, houve uma reconfiguração espacial e uma reestruturação socioambiental nos locais onde este plantio foi implantado ou intensificado. Na microrregião do Sudoeste de Goiás, estão em atividades dez usinas sucroenergéticas e uma em fase de implantação. Este trabalho tem como objetivo verificar a estruturação do setor nesta microrregião e as consequências ambientais que se estabeleceram. O trabalho procura estabelecer, inicialmente, um conjunto de informações sobre como o setor foi se transformando na perspectiva técnica, passando por diferentes fases (açucareiro, sucroalcooleiro, sucroenergético), até chegar aos dias atuais, quando incorpora no seu portfólio de “provedor do desenvolvimento sustentável”. Dentro desse itinerário, dá-se ênfase entre as relações das políticas ambientais, especialmente pós-Kyoto, e a expansão do setor. E dentro dessa expansão, procurou-se compreender como a instalação do setor sucroenergético na microrregião do Sudoeste de Goiás poderia oferecer subsídios empíricos, a partir de uma análise socioespacial, da articulação da dinâmica territorial e sua legitimação do discurso ambiental feito pelo setor. Para isso, utilizou-se como metodologia entrevistas semiestruturadas com os responsáveis da parte ambiental e operários das usinas; levantamento da legislação ambiental que abrange o setor; análise dos estudos e relatórios de impactos ambientais das usinas instaladas; e levantamento das autuações ambientais nos órgãos públicos. Verificou-se que o padrão tecnológico utilizado pelas novas usinas instaladas na microrregião Sudoeste de Goiás permitiu minimizar alguns passivos ambientais historicamente arraigados ao setor. No entanto, a intensificação do cultivo canavieiro na microrregião pode acarretar novos impactos, como a intensificação do uso da água para irrigação, a perda de área para outras culturas, compactação dos solos e a monocultura. Faz-se necessária, assim, uma normatização ambiental que abranja as situações específicas desse setor e que leve em consideração as situações vivenciadas pelos agentes locais, no intuito de preservar a qualidade ambiental.

This paper aims to present an interdisciplinary analysis of the recent globalization trends in Romanian cities and to propose a series of guidelines for sustainable future management processes and plans. In order to provide an encompassing perspective on the Romanian urban landscapes, three cities of different scales, socio-cultural and historical backgrounds were analyzed. The study sites are: Bucharest - capital city and the largest financial, cultural and industrial centre of Romania, Sibiu - a medieval Transylvanian citadel designated European Capital of Culture in 2007 and Ramnicu-Valcea - a small town situated in a touristic and cultural mountain area.   As culture has become increasingly global and placeless, more scholars argue for the careful management of diversity in cityscapes and put emphasis on the role of the local context. Picturesque and Gardenesque are landscape architecture styles that have acknowledged large scale replication in different parts of the world (for instance, in New Zealand, Australia, USA, Argentina, China). Devoid of their original significance and complexity in expression and usage, these design styles have been similarly assimilated in the Romanian cities.   In the post-communist era, the reconfiguration of Romanian urban landscapes translated in a surge in office, commercial and advertising developments, a rapid increase in urban sprawl and enlargement of infrastructure that supports car dependency. All these elements valued in a consumerism society transformed in an unprecedented fashion the urban morphology of Bucharest, Sibiu and Ramnicu-Valcea. The overarching aim of this paper is to produce a comprehensive research material with a multi-stakeholder perspective (academia, local administration, decision makers, developers, practitioners and citizens) that puts forward sustainable alternatives to current practices. The study generates a conclusion that Bucharest has acknowledged the most rapid and apparent transformations at the city fabric level under the influence of globalization elements. Nevertheless, all three urban centres analyzed have their unique local character that should be enhanced in order to create more diverse and resilient landscapes.

This submission for PhD by publication aims to capture, reflect upon, analyse and offer critical insights into how the use of land and exchange of property can help serve the search for sustainable urban development (SUD). This aim is subsequently met by: • hypothesising how the applicant's publications provide a representation of SUD able to get beyond the state-of-the-art and offer a conceptual framework capable of uncovering the positive role land and property can play in sustaining urban development; • reviewing the research undertaken by the applicant to define SUD and develop a framework for analysis, set of protocols and directory of assessment methods to evaluate the sustainability of urban development; • highlighting the possibility there is for the valuation methodologies and investment appraisal techniques underlying the use of land and exchange of property, to be constructive in terms of the relationship their corporate strategies and financial instruments have to the environment; • illustrating how it is possible to compute the informational basis of property management and draw upon the intelligence this offers cities to develop electronically-enhanced services underpinned by e-learning platforms, knowledge management systems and digital libraries, capable of supporting environmental improvements; • showing how the environmental improvements that surface from such developments in turn support the community-based approach to urban regeneration which underlies the UK government's socially-inclusive and participatory venture into ecological modernisation and democratic renewal; • providing examples of where the management of property by cities is intelligent, not only because the environmental improvement supporting their community-based approach to urban regeneration are socially-inclusive and participatory, but for the reason the ecological modernisation and process of democratic renewal underlying these developments meet the sustainability requirement; • reflecting on the contribution this representation of SUD as informational, intelligent, socially-inclusive, participatory, community-based, regenerative, ecological and democratic, makes to what is known and understood about the subject. Together these positive, analytical and constructive examinations of SUD augment into the informational basis of property management and surface as the corporate strategies and financial instruments of the electronically-enhanced service models needed for cities to be intelligent. In particular, the strategies, instruments and eGov(ernment) service models, cities need to be intelligent in valuing the environment and accounting for the socially-inclusive, participatory, community-based, regenerative, ecological and democratic qualities underlying their improvement programmes.

Today I would like to write you about economic development. To my mind, economic development refers to the sustained, concerted actions of communities and policymakers that improve the standard of living and economic health of a specific locality. Also, development of the economic system is a profound qualitative change in its composition, relationships and function. Economic development involves development of human capital, increasing the literacy ratio, improve important infrastructure, improvement of health and safety and others areas that aims at increasing the general welfare of the citizens.

There are many definitions of sustainable development, including this landmark one which first appeared in 1987: "Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."— from the World Commission on Environment and Development’s (the Brundtland Commission) report Our Common Future (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1987). Increasingly, “green,” “sustainable,” or “low-carbon” development is seen as a pathway to economic recovery, resilience, and prosperity. A growing number of cities and regions are recognizing that their climate, energy, and economic development goals and agendas are parts of the same whole. The interest in sustainable economic development and the “clean economy” has gained increasing attention in recent years.

The domain of 'economics' is fundamental to considerations of sustainable development, however there has been considerable criticism of the tendency to use the three-domain model of the triple bottom line: economics, environment and social. This approach is challenged to the extent that it treats the economy as the master domain, or as a domain that exists outside of the social; it treats the environment as a world of natural metrics; and it treats the social as a miscellaneous collection of extra things that do not fit into the economic or environmental domains (see the section on Economic sustainability below). In the alternative Circles of Sustainability approach, the economic domain is defined as the practices and meanings associated with the production, use, and management of resources, where the concept of ‘resources’ is used in the broadest sense of that word.

This doctoral thesis theorises on how business organisations have reacted to the legal principle of Sustainable Development. The proposition is that Sustainable Development is an event-driven principle of becoming where the present depends both on the organisation’s environment and its internal operations. The starting point of the research is the observing of decisions made in relation to Sustainable Development covering a period of around ten years. This is based on four distinctions resulting in a structural, processual, motivational and functional understanding of the organisations in question. The theoretical framework is based on Niklas Luhmann’s theory of social systems, emphasising his theory of organisations, contributing new knowledge on how organisations react to their environment, the consequence of a-centricity, poly-contexturality and the un- steerability of society. Firstly, the thesis demonstrates that, for the companies involved, Sustainable Development has resulted in a better use of resources, both natural and human and consequently capital. Secondly, the result cannot be attributed only to internal industry decisions but significantly also to the direct or indirect involvement of NGOs and other irritants. Thirdly, Sustainable Development can be highly attributed to law but when the environment of law is not satisfied, rules of behaviour outside the legal framework are created by organisations such as NGOs. The research shows that Sustainable Development is not a recipe for success in itself but, without it, long-term profit is not possible. There is a structural coupling between NGOs, businesses and legislators and this can be seen in the way they communicate with each other. It is clear that although relevant, law is not the only mechanism and, in some cases, not even the best. Rather than forcing businesses into a specific legal framework the best available solution, consistent with theory and application, is for business organisations to reduce difference between themselves and their environment through self-steering when it comes to Sustainable Development and to increase difference when it comes to organisational differentiation.

Sustainable development is determined by a combination of top-down policy objectives, bottom-up interests as well as theoretical and scientific input. To date there has not yet emerged a system of reference to integrate these aspects. This lack of a framework poses severe problems for the implementation and the evaluation of sustainable development. This paper, which was funded by the Austrian Science Fund, illustrates the importance of a system of reference for the implementation and evaluation of initiatives for sustainable development and describes the framework developed by the "Research Focus Managing Sustainability" of the Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration. The development of the framework is founded on the definition and delimitation of sustainable development from various perspectives and disciplines, on workshops with experts, on case studies of Local Agenda 21 (LA21) projects and on literature-analysis. The framework accounts for the wide range of notions of sustainable development in a systematic way and provides orientation through the aspects of sustainable development (scope) and the requirements associated therewith (depth). With regard to the implementation of sustainable development, the framework helps to match the demands and expectations on sustainable development that exist on different policy levels. As a means to focus consensus-based processes of local sustainable development policies, the framework makes the concept of sustainable development more operational. Concerning evaluations of Local Agenda 21 initiatives, a meta-analysis in Austria shows that project managers, evaluators and clients apply different systems of reference according to their view of sustainable development. The framework provides a tool to explicitly point out different approaches of sustainable development and thus facilitates discussion and harmonization towards a common system of reference. Furthermore, the framework makes it easier to identify strengths and weaknesses of sustainable development initiatives, clarify missing aspects and possible directions of further improvement.

This study looked at the opportunities and challenges faced in promoting smallholder farming as an element in rural economic development. The main objective is to highlight the key factors affecting smallholder production; and how those factors affect smallholder farmers in rural areas of Buffalo City Municipality, and hence identify the ones likely to predict success for future use in intervention programs. The content and scope of this study is limited to the socio-economic constraints (economic activities, household assets e.g. natural assets, physical assets, financial assets etc.) faced by rural households and therefore prescribe the necessary interventions to enhance rural livelihoods. Data was collected through review of secondary sources, direct observation through field visits and interviews with households. Questionnaires were used as the main tool of inquiry to gather data from households in selected villages within Buffalo City Municipality. The collected survey data was coded and analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 19.0. The study used Descriptive, Gini Coefficient and Binary Logistics model to analyze the collected survey data. For the descriptive model, the main pointers that were employed for this study were frequencies and mean values. The Gini Coefficient model was used to measure the contribution of different sources of income to overall inequality. The binary logistic regression model was used to uncover the correlates of the household income for different rural groups (famers and non-farmers). The results reveal that farm income has a strong association to overall household income per capita. Unearned income sources also have a substantial contribution to household income. Remittances and child grants were significant to non-farming household income per capita. Given the diminishing farm size of smallholder-led agriculture; these results suggest that a diversified household income portfolio is vital in addressing poverty in rural areas. Based on the results this study concluded that agricultural activities cannot solely enhance food security.

The task of converting the rhetoric of sustainable development to real action and change is one that poses significant challenges for local and central government agencies. The complexity of this task is compounded by the increasing acceptance that the impediments to advancing the sustainable development agenda are largely institutional. This thesis argues that, unless explicit consideration is given to understanding institutional change for sustainable development and the ways in which it can be enabled, little progress is likely to be made. This thesis sets out to examine the contribution of building institutional capacity in enabling institutional change for sustainable development. In doing so it starts by developing conceptual frameworks for both institutional capacity and institutional change. The institutional capacity framework illustrates the integrated nature of capacity building for progressing sustainable development, and the conceptual framework of institutional change is designed to help agencies understand the complexity and holistic nature of institutional change. These conceptual frameworks were developed initially from an analysis of empirical material relating to the institutional issues associated with advancing sustainable development and were informed by the theoretical perspectives provided by new institutionalism and capacity building. Further refinement of the conceptual frameworks was possible by using a case study of a multi-agency public sector sustainable development initiative in the Auckland region of New Zealand. Analysis of interviews revealed that the building of institutional capacity is enmeshed with institutional change for sustainable development. The failure to understand the ii integrated and holistic nature of capacity building has an impact on the success of multi-agency public sector initiatives seeking to change current policy and practice. From the case study and further analysis of the empirical and theoretical literature it was possible to develop a set of institutional design principles that incorporate the conceptual frameworks and seek to make them applicable for the design of multiagency initiatives. These institutional design principles were tested and refined through further interviews with case study participants, resulting in the development of a process for designing and implementing multi-agency public sector sustainable development initiatives. The design process embeds the conceptual frameworks for institutional capacity and institutional change, and demonstrates that the task of progressing sustainable development is a process of change and can be enabled by a focus on applying the institutional design principles developed through this research. It is critical, first, that design of new initiatives takes account of the existing institutional landscape and identifies the necessary shifts in each dimension of institutions to ensure institutional change, makes as much use of existing structures as possible, is clear on the purpose of the initiative, specifies the extent of coordination sought between agencies and identifies specific mechanisms to steer integration. The second key component of institutional design is the identification of the institutional capacities required to support the institutional change sought from the initiative, their development during the course of an initiative, and the incorporation of evaluation and reflection as a key element of the process of implementation. iii The findings of this research contribute to our understanding of the capacities required to facilitate institutional change and the elements of institutional design that can shape efforts by the public sector to advance sustainable development.

Earlier, sustainable development was perceived as a hindrance to economic growth. This seems not to be the case today because strategies towards sustainable development are becoming more common, especially in nonprofit organizations. Sustainable development is about creation of strategies that include wellbeing of present and next generations. This shows that it is important for today’s organizations to be sustainable. However, stakeholders have a part to play in this since they are capable of influencing organizations towards sustainable development. To these influences organizations respond either in a proactive or defensive way. As a result the purpose of this study is to investigate the stakeholders’ influences on sustainable development in a nonprofit organization and how this nonprofit organization responds to these influences strategically. After looking at previous literature about relevant concepts, three research questions were formulated. This study is a case study where in five in-depth interviews have been carried in a Swedish nonprofit organization with an ongoing project about sustainable development. In the course of the study it became clear that there are several important aspects to consider when thriving for sustainability. Furthermore, some stakeholder groups possess more power to influence sustainable development and the organizational response might not have to be exclusively proactive or defensive. Lastly results of this study show that important identified factors of sustainability in this organization are economic, environmental and social. The internal stakeholders are the ones influencing sustainable development in this particular organization and the organization responds by creation of proactive strategies.

Resumo: Diante da grande quantidade de resíduos sólidos gerados, incluídos os resíduos da construção e demolição - RCD, na cidade de Campinas e da precariedade do sistema de planejamento e gestão dos aterros sanitários de algumas áreas da região, investigou-se a viabilidade técnica, econômica e ambiental do uso de lodo desaguado de Estação de Tratamento de Água (ETA) e de agregado miúdo reciclado do entulho na fabricação de elementos de alvenaria tipo concreto. Tais elementos da construção civil foram testados segundo as normas técnicas pertinentes da Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas, tanto aquelas referentes às propriedades físico-mecânicas quanto àquelas ambientais, considerando-se os períodos de fabricação e pós-consumo, quando ele virar entulho. Os lodos e entulhos afetam grandemente os ecossistemas onde são lançados. Com eles, como fonte alternativa de matéria-prima, produziram-se elementos de alvenaria, estruturais e de vedação, em diferentes proporções, que foram avaliados nas dimensões, à compressão simples e à absorção de água; também, os materiais foram avaliados ambientalmente. Os resultados mostraram que a umidade do lodo influenciou significativamente na qualidade dos tijolos tipo solo-cimento, sendo possível sua confecção somente com teor de umidade abaixo de 50% de sólidos totais, ST. Nenhum tijolo produzido nas condições propostas atendeu simultaneamente aos requisitos das normas brasileira de qualidade - dimensões, absorção de água e resistência à compressão. Referente aos blocos tipo concreto não estruturais (vedação), com até 3% de lodo seco ou 1% de lodo úmido, agregado de entulho nas duas matrizes avaliadas (concreto e cerâmica) e 10% de cimento, poderiam servir de base para uma produção industrial, sendo destinados à infra-estrutura urbana, já que se obtém evidentes ganhos econômicos e ambientais (propondo-se o uso de um passivo ambiental), sem perda da qualidade técnica dos produtos.
Abstract: Given the large amount of solid waste generated in the city of Campinas, SP, Brazil and the precariousness of the system of landfills in the region, it is investigated the technical feasibility, economic and environmental use of dry sludge of station water treatment plant and aggregate debris recycled kid in the manufacture of bricks cement soil type and blocks of concrete type. Such components of the building have been tested according to the relevant technical standards of the Brazilian Association of Technical Standards, both those related to the physical-mechanical properties as those environmental, considering the periods of manufacturing and post-consumer. These wastes greatly affect the ecosystems where they are launched and today, will be increasingly seen as an alternative source of raw material. With these materials, structural components produced there and sealing in different traits, which were tested for compression simple, the absorption of water, and environmental dimensions. The results showed that the humidity of sludge significantly influence the quality of soil-cement bricks kind, and it is possible only with its confection moisture content below 50%. None brick produced in conditions studied attended both Brazilian standards of quality-size, absorption of water and resistance to compression. The tests showed that no structural blocks of concrete (seal), with up to 3% of dry sludge and 1% of wet sludge, debris aggregate of the two matrices evaluated (concrete and ceramic) and 10% of cement, could serve as the basis for a production industry, for urban infrastructure, as it has obvious economic and environmental gains (is itself making use of a huge environmental liabilities), without loss of technical quality of the products.

Nowadays, corporate responsibility is not only an issue for large international corporations but also for small- medium sized enterprise (SMEs) with limited resources and less market power. However sustainable development is not a compulsory lesson for SMEs to take, but it is one of the market approaches for a company to thrive and survive. As Donckels represented (1997) that entrepreneurship of SMEs do all their strength to be on its way to the next millennium. The purpose of this thesis is to describe and understand how sustainable business approaches can influence and enhance SMEs development despite of their barriers and limitations which are associated with their day to day management. For that reason, researchers are aiming to analyze closely and get pragmatic insight into the three dimensions of sustainable development (social, environmental, economic) and how the interaction among these three dimensions will benefit SMEs as a whole.

Knowledge - outlook - skills. This triad is the basis of any educational cycle, and determines a key framework of forms and methods of education. Each component of the triad contributes to the reproduction of two others. Finally, the triad mentioned is to realize three conditions of a human being: to know, want, and be able to do something. To know means to want, to want means to be able. Any skill reproduces needs for a new knowledge, and the cycle repeats on a new qualitative basis. When it deals with sustainable development (SD) the problem is that this cycle for each human of the Earth would be reproduced constantly. When a human being is getting older, this cycle should be realized automatically (in particular, due to human self-training processes).

The study aims to understandthe effectiveness of community associations for CBT development in developingcountries. Ghana is selected as the primary case of this study. Published data on CBTassociations in Namibia, Uganda, Kyrgyzstan and Costa Rica are used as supporting casesof the study. The research was conducted primarily, using library resources, incombination with fieldwork conducted by the author. The findings describe a viciouscircle of poverty in Ghana’s CBT development as well as describe successes andchallenges of supporting cases. It is clarified that the studied CBT associations haveplayed a significant role in creating networks and making linkages among the variousstakeholders involved. Further, these efforts increase the possibility of expanding CBTbenefits to the whole country, especially by creating interaction with governmentalagencies. However, obtaining a sustainable funding source for their activities is still agreat challenge, facing the associations. The study concludes that the establishment ofCBT associations can solve some of the problems identified as limiting Ghana’s CBTdevelopment. In particular, CBT associations could be useful for enhancing collaborationamong stakeholders. Unfortunately, the study could not identify any concrete solutionsfor the many financial issues which many developing countries face. An empirical studyon introducing microfinance or other soft loan system to CBT associations could be avaluable subject for further studies.

A growing awareness of the modern society about the direct relationship between a growing global community with increasing total industrial activities on one hand and various environmental problems and a natural limitation of natural resources on the other hand set the base for sustainable or 'green' approaches within the supply chain. This paper therefore will look at the issue of 'Green Logistics' which seeks to reduce the environmental impact of logistics activities by taking into account functions such as recycling, waste and carbon emission reduction and the use of alternative sources of energy. In order to analyze how these approaches and ideas are being perceived by the system as a whole two models from the area of prospective and scenario planning are being used and described to identify the main drivers and tendencies within the system in order to create feasible hypothesis. Using the URCA/CHIVAS model allows us to identify the driver variables out of a high number of variables that best describe the system 'Green Logistics'. Followed by the analysis of the actor’s strategies in the system with the Mactor model it is possible to reduce the complexity of a completely holistic system to a few key drivers that can be analyzed further on. Here the implications of URCA/CHIVAS and Mactor are being used to formulate hypotheses about the perception of Green Logistics and its successful implementation among logistics decision makers by an online survey. This research seeks to demonstrate the usefulness of scenario planning to a highly complex system observing it from all angles and extracting information about the relevant factors of it. The results of this demonstration indicate that there are drivers much beyond the factory walls that need to be considered when implementing successfully a system such as Green Logistics.

This paper considers the fast changing developments and changes in relation to sustainable development law with its three pillars, and the needs of international development. The focus of the analysis is on the connection between international economic, international social and international environmental law which constitute sustainable development law at their intersection point, and will show how they can be the paths to sustainable peace. As sustainable development law is emerging as international concern, the qualitative approach of this paper will show its pillars separately and their connection under different conditions. This paper also demonstrates that this approach is gaining ground in the literature, and it contends that it is a more appropriate way of addressing the problems of economic, social and environmental. In support of this argument, the paper looks initially how sustainable development law fits to be the path to sustainable peace within the contemporary world which is full of economic, social and environmental conflicts. Secondly, it provides a theoretical framework how sustainable development law with its pillars can lead the world to sustainable peace. Thirdly, the three pillars, (-international economic law, international social law and international environmental law-), will be elaborated in relation to their intersection and sustainable development law.

Sustainable development increasingly provides new norms in the international agenda for development assistance. As an international development actor the European Union (EU) integrates this notion into its objectives for development co-operation with African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries. This study, therefore, investigates how effectively the EU contributes to the sustainable development of Tonga, member of the Pacific ACP region. An operational mode of sustainable development should adopt an agenda that addresses the needs of the poor and adopts the objective to manage natural resources in a manner that allows economic growth and social development without irreversible impacts on the environment. In the bilateral development co-operation between the EU and Tonga the concept of sustainable development is now firmly established as an overarching objective. This research therefore investigates the correlation between Tonga’s agenda for sustainability and the development policy and co- operation the EU provides. In the policy framework that the EU adopts, addresses effectively many of the aspects of Tonga’s sustainable development. In the current framework of the tenth European Development Fund (EDF), in particular, the EU adopts appropriate strategies for the management of Tonga’s environment that support social and economic development. An analysis of the allocation of funds, however, shows that the promised policy strategies do not result in appropriate action. To contribute more successfully to the sustainable development of Tonga, the EU needs to integrate the development of the country into its own interests. The notion of cosmopolitan moral responsibility and distributive justice offers an incentive for the EU to do so.

Water is at the very core of sustainable development, critical for a thriving people, planet and prosperity. Water is regarded as a public good which is fundamental for health and life. Water is so important that it was debated as being a basic human right on many international platforms. Water access has plagued many parts of the world for a long period of time. In recent years, there have been increasingly urgent warnings of a global water crisis, as the human species consistently uses more water than is sustainably available. The international community tried to work towards overcoming these water-related issues by establishing the then Millennium Development Goals (hereafter referred to as MDGs), with MDG7.C focusing on access to safe drinking water. Even though MDG7.C was achieved in part, issues still remained regarding water access and quality. Sustainable Development Goal 6 (hereafter referred to as SDG 6) was then introduced and the scope of SDG6 is much wider than its predecessor, since the water access and scarcity problems are still prevalent today. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development includes a dedicated goal on water and sanitation that sets out to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. SDG6 expands the MDG focus on drinking water to now cover the entire water cycle, including the management of water, wastewater and ecosystem resources, with water at the very core of sustainable development. The goal has, in essence, extended to include a much broader spectrum of issues that need to be solved which, in essence, unravels even more challenges along the way. As a result, it is imperative to determine whether SDG6 can allow for actual sustainable development in terms of freshwater resources. Thus, this thesis will discuss the advent of the Sustainable Development Goals (hereafter referred to as SDGs), in particular SDG6, as well as analyse how SDG6 impacts on International Environmental Law, with particular emphasis on International Freshwater Law. The main aim of this research is to determine whether the creation and implementation of SDG6 can result in overall freshwater sustainability and whether this can result in the furtherance of sustainable development.

Infrastructure is the foundation and the basic framework which permits cities to function. However, there are significant infrastructure problems in North America. In cities across North America, the infrastructure is deteriorating. The efficiency of a community depends on the condition of its infrastructure. The health and welfare of the residents and the economy of a country requires an efficient and sound infrastructure. North America will not achieve prosperity if it allows its urban infrastructure to decay to the Developing World's levels.
Increased new sources of revenue need to be explored by political officials to pay for the cost of upgrading our infrastructure to an acceptable level. In addition, developing an effective management, approach is a long-term way to handle a problem as large and as serious as our current infrastructure crisis. Current engineering and construction practices have proved to be detrimental to our environment and depletion of natural resources. The future role of civil engineers should be the prevention of any damage to our environment and natural resources, and this can be achieved by incorporating sustainability into the current engineering and construction practices.
