Gestión integral de residuos de envases y embalajes. Soluciones estratégicas available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. La gestión de los residuos de Envases y Embalajes (E+E) de cara al nuevo milenio adquiere cada vez más un mayor protagonismo en el contexto mundial, siendo imprescindible actuar en los diferentes eslabones que en ella intervienen, con el objetivo de lograr el necesario enfoque en un sistema que garantice el éxito de la misma. Los elementos de referencia para garantizar el éxito del Sistema de Reciclaje, compuesto por los Principios Guías, las Estrategias de las 10 Rs y los Requerimientos de éxito, llaman la atención sobre la necesaria integración que debe existir entre cada uno de los eslabones que intervienen en el ciclo de vida de los E+E (de la cuna a la tumba) y pueden constituirse en un patrón de referencia para enfrentar y contrarrestar el impacto negativo de dichos residuos, tanto en la esfera económica, como en el medio ambiente. En este sentido, la propuesta de modelo de éxito para el desempeño del sistema, que integra todos los eslabones del ciclo de vida de los E+E puede convertirse en un patrón de excelencia o benchmarking.

Download and read online ebook The North American Mosaic write by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat. This book was released on 2001. The North American Mosaic available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Download and read online ebook Cradle to Cradle write by William McDonough. This book was released on 2010-03-01. Cradle to Cradle available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. A manifesto for a radically different philosophy and practice of manufacture and environmentalism "Reduce, reuse, recycle" urge environmentalists; in other words, do more with less in order to minimize damage. But as this provocative, visionary book argues, this approach perpetuates a one-way, "cradle to grave" manufacturing model that dates to the Industrial Revolution and casts off as much as 90 percent of the materials it uses as waste, much of it toxic. Why not challenge the notion that human industry must inevitably damage the natural world? In fact, why not take nature itself as our model? A tree produces thousands of blossoms in order to create another tree, yet we do not consider its abundance wasteful but safe, beautiful, and highly effective; hence, "waste equals food" is the first principle the book sets forth. Products might be designed so that, after their useful life, they provide nourishment for something new-either as "biological nutrients" that safely re-enter the environment or as "technical nutrients" that circulate within closed-loop industrial cycles, without being "downcycled" into low-grade uses (as most "recyclables" now are). Elaborating their principles from experience (re)designing everything from carpeting to corporate campuses, William McDonough and Michael Braungart make an exciting and viable case for change.

Download and read online ebook The Circular Economy and the Global South write by Patrick Schröder. This book was released on 2019-04-12. The Circular Economy and the Global South available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The circular economy is a policy approach and business strategy that aims to improve resource productivity, promote sustainable consumption and production and reduce environmental impacts. This book examines the relevance of the circular economy in the context of developing countries, something which to date is little understood. This volume highlights examples of circular economy practices in developing country contexts in relation to small and medium enterprises (SMEs), informal sector recycling and national policy approaches. It examines a broad range of case studies, including Argentina, Brazil, China, Colombia, India, Indonesia, Kenya, South Africa, and Thailand, and illustrates how the circular economy can be used as a new lens and possible solution to cross-cutting development issues of pollution and waste, employment, health, urbanisation and green industrialisation. In addition to more technical and policy oriented contributions, the book also critically discusses existing narratives and pathways of the circular economy in the global North and South, and how these differ or possibly even conflict with each other. Finally, the book critically examines under what conditions the circular economy will be able to reduce global inequalities and promote human development in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals. Presenting a unique social sciences perspective on the circular economy discourse, this book is relevant to students and scholars studying sustainability in economics, business studies, environmental politics and development studies.
