Environment sustainability

The aim of the assessment of the effects of agricultural products on the environment is to evaluate their impact on environment sustainability [24], especially in terms of food consumption patterns [25]. As stated by [26], the system sustainability can be evaluated on the basis of inputs and outputs and their conversion to C02e. [27] states that the measurement of GHG emissions suffers from certain inaccuracy. The reason for this error is that emissions in agriculture are influenced by complex biological processes with a wide range of variables. [Pg.266]

Unfortunately, chemical processes can be tailored only to a limited extent, and furthermore, the use of some hazardous substances by society is unavoidable. There is much work to be done. It is certain, however, that an integral component of the global sustainability movement is the need for greater respect for our environment. Sustainability will require a concerted effort by all science and engineering professionals and political bodies, as well as by an informed and responsible public. [Pg.298]

The theme of the 1999 Responsible Care report is Contractor Safety . As well as specific sections on this topic the CER includes sections on Safety, Health, Environment, Sustainable Entrepreneurship and Responsible Care . It also presents a Company Profile and Review by site , and includes Emission data and a section titled Where it still went wrong . [Pg.200]

Plasticizers are substances (usually low molecular weight diluents) that are incorporated into polymeric materials to improve their workability and increase flexibility. The most important of these used in rubber adhesives are phthalates (see Environment sustainability), polymeric plasticizers, and esters. [Pg.435]

Soil extractions under the best of circumstances provide information on net or residual available phenolic acids but there is no reliable way, at present, to determine when or where these compounds function as active inhibitors, and Many inhibitory effects of phenolic acids are rapidly reversed once phenolic acids are eliminated (e.g., leaching, microbial activity, root uptake) from the root environment. Sustained inhibition requires that phenolic acids at the right concentration and physicochemical state, and under the right environmental conditions be continuously present and in contact with a large fraction of the root system. Unfortunately available/active phenolic acids in soils are dynamic, ever changing. Realistic data on flows into and out of various phenolic acid pools in the soil are notoriously difficult to get by soil extractions, since each extraction represents a point in time and, if for example, input equals output, then net flow between two extraction times will appear to be zero. In fact, considerable flows may be occurring between sources and sinks within the soil that are just not detectable by way of soil extractions. [Pg.178]
