An important force in the development of this new approach to chemistry was the "sustainable development" movement that arose in the early 1980s. The goal of this movement was to find ways for nations to improve the well-being of humans around the world without threatening local and global environments, thus the term... [Pg.178]

Clean air is an important prerequisite for sustainable development and is a basic requirement for human health and welfare. In addition, air pollutants contribute to atmospheric problems such as acidification and global climate change, which have impacts on crop productivity, forest growth, biodiversity, buildings, and cultural monuments. The benefits from the progress made in the areas of waste gas treatment and environmental legislation are partially offset by industrialization, an increase in the number of private cars in use, and overpopulation. [Pg.2]

A similar method proposed by Hoffmann [26] involves analyzing process alternatives based on two indices. The total armuabzed profit per service unit (TAPPS) and material intensity per service unit (MIPS) are calculated as economic and environmental factors, respectively. TAPPS is used to calculate the maximum profit per unit of product produced. MIPS is used to calculate the number of input and output streams in a process. MIPS was used based on the knowledge that a global reduction in material streams (solvents, reactants,) is necessary to lead toward sustainable development. TAPPS and MIPS are determined for several process alternatives, which are analyzed using a Pareto Chart for their feasibihty within a plant. However, MIPS does not account for the release of toxic solvents and reagents into the environment. Therefore it has been noted that it should be used in conjunction with LCA and other methods to avoid the use of highly toxic solvents and other raw materials [26]. [Pg.65]

So far the ideas of sustainable development have been described mainly in global political terms. The financial and business world also took hold of the concept and reformulated it into three parts social, ecological, and economic (15,16). This in turn was translated into a catch phrase People, planet, and profit (17). We will summarize these parts. [Pg.508]

Scenarios of human development are the basic subject of discussions at both global international and regional national levels (Yakovets, 1997 Troyan and Dementiev, 2005). Constructing global scenarios is based on the theory of sustainable development, the elements of which are rather difficult to create, and it is... [Pg.115]
