This chapter explains the background and genesis of an energy and environment information programme operating in the Industrial and Technological Information Bank (INTIB), within the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO). 

In this context, particular attention has to be paid to the developing countries, and countries in transition, as faced a few years ago in a program promoted and supported by the United Nation Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) through the International Centre for Science and High Technology (ICS) established at Padriciano (Trieste, Italy) and implemented after the takeoff in year 1996 for more than a decade (Table 14.1) [9]. 

The working groups publish newsletters and reports and provide a network for those working in these industries across the world. UNEP and UNIDO (United Nations Industrial Development Organisation) are also setting up about 20 centres for cleaner production in less developed countries. These centres will be independent and industry driven, involved in education, technology transfer and consultation regarding cleaner production.

The appropriate technology branch of the environmental movement remained small and obscure until 1987 when the United Nations World Commission on Environment and Development (dubbed the Brundtland Commission for its chairperson, Gro Harlem Brundtland, then the Prime Minister of Norway) published the book-length study, Our Common Future. In essence, the Brundtland report leveled a fundamental critique at the world industrial system it was not sustainable because it was incompatible with nature. A sustainable system is one that survives or persists throughout its full expected life span. 

It was the Brundtland Commission of the United Nations in 1987 that defined sustainable development in inspiring but very open-ended terms as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Crucially, it acknowledged that economic development was necessary to generate the wealth for cleaner, more efficient technologies, and social improvement. Going back to pre-industrial times was not the answer to the world s problems. 

Many species of Monascus fungi are readily available to the public from several institutes having culture collections such as the American Type Culture Center (ATCC) in the United States, the National Institute of Technology and Evaluation Biological Resource Center (NBRC) in Japan, and the Food Industry Research and Development Institute in Taiwan assigned with "CCRC" prefix.
