Industrial ecology (IE) is an emerging paradigm for environmental control. IE offers a framework for altering industrial activities so that they more closely reflect a closed loop cycle, rather than a linear flow of extraction and disposal. Implementation of IE is occurring through the eco-industrial park (EIP) model. An EIP is a group of businesses that are implementing IE principles, through cooperation between one another and/or other organizations. This Thesis examines the current practice of implementing IE through the EIP model. The research methodology includes assessing the Kalundborg, Denmark EIP example, surveying North American EIPs, and studying a case of implementing an EIP in Londonderry, NH. Findings from the research indicate that there is currently a taxonomy of IE practices being implemented through the EIP model. The taxonomy includes practice in land stewardship, green building design, individual firm environmental practices, and byproduct exchange. Each of the four areas of practice have characteristics with implications for how implementation should occur through an EIP. EIP planners and developers should craft implementation strategies in accordance with their IE objectives. Additionally, the management entity of an EIP should have the capacity to implement all IE objects. Finally, a community education process on IE is necessary during the implementation of an EIP.

Firms in all industries must respond both to the changing dynamics of markets and to the expectations of stakeholders within those markets. Within the last two decades, nongovernmental organizations and other parts of the public have been increasingly active in shaping public expectations for firms to conduct their activities in ways that minimize undesired social and environmental impacts. These expectations for firms to balance their short terms goals of profitability with the long-term needs of the society and environment can be broadly referred to as corporate "Sustainable Development." The current day debate surrounding SD as applied to global corporations is complicated for many reasons, as this document explains. Large global oil and gas firms that are in the business of exploiting non-renewable yet strategic natural resources are by no means immune to these changing stakeholder expectations. These companies deal with the commodities that fuel both development and pollution. As a result, the debate surrounding SD affects their corporate strategy. Increasing global connectivity via the Internet has provided concerned citizens with the ability to apply pressure in a collective and immediate way. In the last decade, negative media has highlighted the impact these public pressures have had on oil and gas firms' image. It has also highlighted the potential scale to which these pressures can impact a company's future as a, profitable firm. We studied two oil and gas firms, Shell and BP. Both have re-positioned and re-branded themselves by taking proactive measures to meet and even exceed the expectations of their various stakeholders. By entering into dialogue with their constituencies, they have increased innovation toward sustainable practices, and in so doing, have boosted public trust. By analyzing live cases, we reveal their approaches in bringing the ambitious ideals of sustainable development into practice. Each case was successful due to its project-specific approach which catered to local needs. Additionally, each firm's history, organization and culture dictates its SD strategy - i.e, there is no universal approach. However, regardless of individual styles, "transparency" and "engagement with stakeholders" are vital ingredients to success in SD. But these must be learned through practice.

Повний текст джерелаThis paper intends to give the reader a wider knowledge about sustainable construction by taking a closer look at what drivers and goals have been of most importance in Silverdal - a construction project with environmental commitment and focus on energy efficiency. The research is formed by using a compilation of variables, such as regulation, brand building and risk management, which serve as a base for the qualitative research of the case study. The empirical findings have been gathered by interviewing people responsible for the Silverdal project. These findings imply that compliance with regulations has become more important with time and that brand building can still have greater relevance than long-term commitment to environmental related risk management. Also, economic benefits seem to be the most desired ones at the expense of making a contribution to real sustainability.
Eriksson, Linnea. "Policy Integration for Sustainable Transport Development : Case Studies of Two Swedish Regions." Doctoral thesis, Linköpings universitet, Tema teknik och social förändring, 2016. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:liu:diva-130781.
Повний текст джерелаFör att beslut och riktlinjer ska kunna utformas så att de leder till lösningar av komplexa frågor, såsom hållbar utveckling, anses de behöva hanteras i samverkan mellan flertalet berörda sektorer och beslutsfattande nivåer. Det är dessa samverkansprocesser, beskrivna som integration under policy processer, som den här avhandlingen analyserar. Syftet är att studera om och hur integrerade regionala policyprocesser förekommer, hur de utvecklas samt deras betydelse för att åstadkomma ett hållbarare transportsystem. Detta undersöks genom kvalitativa fallstudier av två olika svenska regioner som representerar ett minst och ett mest troligt fall av integration av policy. Fallstudierna görs i regionerna Stockholms län och Västra Götalands län. Dessa två fall representerar dessutom två helt olika typer av regionala organisationer, vilket gör att de utgör underlag till, inte bara en diskussion om hållbara transporter, utan också om utvecklingen av den svenska regionala förvaltningsnivån. För analys används teori kring integration av policy och tre huvudsakliga analytiska begreppsansatser: policylogiker, organisationsidentiteter och gränsobjekt. Resultaten presenteras i fyra separata artiklar och dessa diskuteras tillsammans i den inledande kappan. I studien konstateras att integration av policysektorer och förvaltningsnivåer inte nödvändigtvis leder till transportlösningar som är mer hållbara. Beslut om en gemensam policy över sektorer och nivåer riskerar bli urvattnad eftersom det är många aktörer som ska komma överens. Samverkan för att samordna olika mål och intressen visar sig i huvudsak vara viktigt för att styra mot ett hållbart transportsystem, men det innebär inte att gemensam policy bör vara målet. Därutöver belyser studien hur olika organisationsformer på regional nivå påverkar regionala beslutsprocesser och hanteringen av hållbar transportutveckling.

Повний текст джерелаEl cambio ambiental global afecta a las comunidades rurales de una manera sin precedentes y trae transformaciones en los medios de vida de los hogares rurales. Los hogares rurales tienen una creciente vulnerabilidad a las tendencias climáticas y no climáticas y están buscando nuevas estrategias de adaptación para enfrentar los impactos de las próximas transformaciones. El turismo es una estrategia de adaptación que se está expandiendo a nivel mundial entre las comunidades rurales. La fortaleza del turismo y sus nuevas corrientes representan una fuente de oportunidades para las comunidades rurales de Ecuador, en la medida en que pueden ofrecer productos que combinan atributos de originalidad y autenticidad, fuentes de diferenciación y competitividad. El objetivo clave de esta investigación es explorar los factores que influyen en el turismo comunitario como una estrategia de adaptación efectiva de las comunidades rurales al cambio ambiental global. Para llevar a cabo el análisis propuesto, se realiza una revisión sistemática y un metanálisis cualitativo para identificar las distintas vías de vulnerabilidad que coexisten entre las comunidades rurales que participan en el turismo comunitario en todo el mundo. Además, se han implementado encuestas semiestructuradas como una técnica de recolección de datos. Las comunidades rurales ecuatorianas de San Clemente, Quilotoa, Chugchilan y Tumbabiro fueron elegidas para recolectar la muestra. En estas cuatro comunidades, examinamos los diferentes tipos de hogares rurales y sus capitales de subsistencia. También, la diversidad de discursos existentes, sostenida por los residentes locales involucrados en el turismo de base comunitaria (CBT) y las empresas de ecoturismo (ET). Además, examinamos los componentes de la acción colectiva en comunidades rurales bajo estudio. Aunque todavía hay mucha investigación que se necesita hacer para comprender la complejidad de sus efectos y el potencial para el desarrollo sostenible. Nuestro propósito es alentar la creación de más y nuevos estudios que resulten en la identificación de formas más inclusivas de desarrollo sostenible en las comunidades rurales de Ecuador.
El canvi ambiental global afecta les àrees rurals d'una manera sense precedents i comporta transformacions profundes per a les comunitats rurals. Les famílies rurals es troben cada vegada més exposades a tendències tant climàtiques com no climàtiques, i estan buscant noves estratègies d’adaptació per minimitzar els impactes perjudicials i optimitzar el benefici. El turisme és una de les estratègies d’adaptació que més es aquesta expandint a nivell mundial entre les comunitats rurals. La fortalesa del turisme, en les seves diferents modalitats, representa una font d'oportunitats molt important per a nombroses comunitats rurals, en la mesura que poden oferir productes que combinen atributs d'originalitat i autenticitat, fonts de diferenciació i competitivitat. Aquest és també el cas de l'Equador. Per tot això, l'objectiu d'aquesta tesi doctoral és identificar i examinar els factors clau que fan del turisme comunitari una estratègia d’adaptació efectiva de les comunitats rurals en un context de canvi ambiental global. Per dur a terme aquest anàlisi s'han conduit quatre estudis. Primer, una revisió sistemàtica i una metanàlisi qualitatiu per identificar els diferents camins de vulnerabilitat que coexisteixen entre les comunitats rurals que participen en el turisme comunitari a tot el món. Segon, mitjançant entrevistes semiestructurades a comunitats rurals andines de l'Equador -San Clemente, Quilotoa, Chugchilan i Tumbabiro- examinar els diferents tipus de llars que hi ha en funció de la seva vulnerabilitat i la capacitat de garantir la seva subsistència. Tercer, també s'identifica la diversitat coexistent de discursos sobre el paper del turisme en aquestes quatre comunitats, tenint en compte que dos estan involucrades en turisme comunitari i dos a ecoturisme. Finalment, s'examina els components que caracteritzen i condicionen l’acció col·lectiva a les quatre comunitats rurals. Tot i que encara hi ha molta investigació pendent a fi de comprendre millor la complexitat del que representa el turisme per a les regions rurals i el seu desenvolupament sostenible; nostre propòsit està en contribuir a omplir aquest buit, sobretot pel que fa a la identificació de formes més inclusives de desenvolupament sostenible a les comunitats rurals, molt especialment en l'Equador.

A case study within the Swedish FPP Industry." Thesis, Halmstad University, School of Business and Engineering (SET), 2009. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:hh:diva-4006.
Повний текст джерелаThe purpose of this thesis is to test a combination of tools and theory to identify corporate sustainable development as part of organizational performance. Nowadays, in global business, the concept and application of sustainable development has become an important factor in the daily operations and strategies for the companies. The policies and practices of the companies are more aware of environmental, social and financial aspects. The publication of sustainability and environmental reports is becoming more popular within business. The media and stakeholders as customers, investors or government offices are more interested in the company’s position towards social and environmental issues. Therefore, the above purpose could be a potential asset for businesses and researchers to relate corporate sustainable development with organizational performance. We will not try to generalize, but test the usability of the theory combined in one model, which can be an asset to test corporate sustainability within a company’s organizational performance. This research will have a deductive approach, and could possibly encourage inductive research for further study. The theoretical framework consists of three sections including two theories, which uniquely identify corporate sustainable development (CSD) and organizational performance (OP). Finally, a combination of these two theories is shown as a practical model that we will try to test in a case. Our thesis will have a qualitative approach. Interviews are the main data collection tool as secondary data (company documents etc.). Secondary data is used as a supporting collection method. The personal interviews, conducted through video conferencing, have been recorded and transcribed for usage in the empirical method. The interview guide can be found in the appendix. The outcome of this research shows that many aspects are entangled within the phenomenon known as “corporate sustainable development”. We have found that economic prosperity has a strong presence (in both cases) within the environmental performance, just as social equity showed within learning and development performance, and social equity has a strong link with social performance. Looking at the case companies, and determining the focus on every dimension, we therefore found measurable relations between OP variables and CSD dimensions. We can also conclude that, when performing the second case analysis (Sveaskog), the results of the measures found were not always similar which asks for more case studies. An overall conclusion on the usability of the measurement tool leans towards positive, for practical usage. However, before using this combination of tools, more research is necessary, especially in the area of multiple case studies. Due to time restrictions, we could compare two case companies, whilst more cases could enhance the general application and usability of these tools.

Повний текст джерелаCambodia differs from many other developing countries because of one specific asset which is tourism. The number of tourists in Cambodia is currently growing with a rapid pace due to the Angkor site near the city of Siem Reap.
The growing number of tourists has definitely created challenges for the accommodation industry in the Siem Reap region. This has created the need for achieving a delicate balance between the exploration of the region and how much the region can cater for regarding the environment, social and long-term economical benefits. This growth has however brought along many downsides such as economical, environmental, social, cultural, political, and technological. There are no previous studies done about sustainable practice in the accommodation industry in developing countries. This study examines the barriers for the implementation of sustainable practice among accommodation providers in Siem Reap.
The first step is this process was to determine the state of the environment. The second step was to determine the cause of the state followed by determining the process of change for sustainable development which can be regarded as the barriers. Previous studies have concluded that barriers of financial difficulties, the cost of change, lack of resources, the lack of information and support regarding sustainable tourism are common barriers for the implementation of sustainable practice. The barriers can be categorized into industry barriers related to industry specific characteristics and organizational barriers that refer to barriers due to characteristics within the firm.
This report is based on a case study in which hermeneutic and qualitative method was used. The data was based on a content analysis of reports published by the International Development Centre of Japan in cooperation with the Cambodian Ministry of Tourism and 14 interviews with accommodation providers in Siem Reap.
In many areas there was a lack of sustainable practices and many barriers could be uncovered. Barriers included among others lack of financial resources which restricted ownership, low awareness of the environmental state, lack of governmental support; an insufficient educational quality which limits management opportunities for Cambodians and insufficient quality in the environmental friendly products.
This study has expanded the knowledge of barriers for the implementation not only to include environmental sustainable practices but also to include barriers when it economical, social, cultural, political and technological dimensions. These barriers should be considered representative for barriers for the implementation of sustainable practices in the accommodation industry in developing countries, especially in contexts with a similar development pattern as Siem Reap.
