Beschreibung
This volume comprises works presented at the 6th International Conference on Environmental and Economic Impact on Sustainable Development. The authors of the included papers examine the most serious problems affecting sustainable economic growth. They also consider the impact of economic constraints on the environment, taking into account the social aspects as well as the over-use of natural resources. Uncontrolled development can result in damage to the environment in terms of the release of toxic substances and hazardous waste. Therefore, decisions have to be made as to whether some forms of development are compatible with environmental protection, particularly in cases of possible serious contamination and toxicity. Issues of great importance are addressed, such as the triple threat of climate change, pollution and biodiversity collapse; progress in ensuring sustainability through more constructive and progressive approaches is also discussed. A major motivation for research in this area learning from past failures, to avoid repeating similar mistakes, while attempting to prevent emerging threats to environmental and ecological systems. Fundamental to these aims is the assessment of the inherent risk and the development of appropriate strategies to mitigate it.
