Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evidence has shown that changes in the quantity and quality of renewable natural resources (RNRs) have some effects on the quality of life people enjoy while poverty alleviation programmes towards improvement in female livelihood in most developing countries have been a positive factor towards the preservation of renewable natural resources which are not only necessary but sufficient condition for environment sustainability. This then raise the questions if female poverty has negative relationship with environmental sustainability. The study tackled this assertion through analyzing the effect of socio-economic, demographic, institutions [actors in RNRs] management/degradation especially women. The study also quantified and valuate the actual relationships of RNRs to economic growth, poverty reduction and female influence using secondary and primary data from Nigeria with the help of ordinary least square (OLS), rotational correlation analysis and stepwise regression using aggregate yield index for selected crop. Grain equivalent was developed and regressed against poverty, arable and per farming population, female literacy, fertilizer use [Kg/ha], agricultural labour, female share of agriculture population and annual rainfall 1986-2004. The study found that female influence contributes negatively to environmental sustainability and improvement in female literacy rate is an important factor towards environmental sustainability in Nigeria. The study concluded that strategic actions needed for sound environmental management require a holistic, multidisciplinary and inter-sectoral approach hence women's participation and leadership are essential to every aspect of that approach.

This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: A, , course: Business Administration, language: English, abstract: This study examines the relationship between sustainable development practices and organizational effectiveness in manufacturing firms in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. The work specifically examines the relationship between waste recycling and the increase in output in manufacturing firms, investigates the relationship between waste recycling and cost reduction, the relationship between waste recycling and increase in sales volume in manufacturing firms and determines the relationship between waste recycling and environmental pollution reduction in manufacturing. Global warming and increased pollution from all aspect of business activities highlight the importance of green management for firms operating in Nigeria and worldwide. More so, sustainable development practices is one of the elements that contributes directly or indirectly to business value. As the Nigerian population and its industries continue to grow, the problem of proper waste disposal becomes increasingly difficult. Products of the manufacturing process amplify the need for improved waste disposal. Efficiency is sometimes pursued at the expense of environmental sustainability. To produce as much as possible in the most cost-effective manner, manufacturers may adopt practices that appear to be cheap but are actually resource-intensive in the long run. The perspectives on manufacturing companies operations have expanded from economic to environmental and social aspects in current trends. Manufacturing companies are not only aiming to improve operations in terms of flexibility, delivery, quality, and cost, but also attempting to be competitive in terms of economic, environmental and social issues. Hence understating sustainable developmental practices is necessary and should be prioritized in the decision-making processes by company management.

Book Synopsis Environmental Management and Sustainable Development of Cities by : Soji Oyeranmi
Download or read book Environmental Management and Sustainable Development of Cities written by Soji Oyeranmi and published by Ethics International Press. This book was released on 2023-11-25 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study contends that proper urban environmental management strategies are vital to the sustainable development of cities in any country. It demonstrates that cities as drivers of sustainable development can be positive forces in support of social equality, cultural vitality, economic prosperity and environmental sustainability. It takes a primary focus on Ibadan, Nigeria. Most cities in sub-Saharan Africa have become badly degraded. Leaders and planners rarely fully grasp the meaning of the concept of sustainable development, and fail to combine their bids to achieve economic development with urban environmental management strategies. The book describes how reformation and transformation are still possible, in Ibadan and elsewhere, and discusses the Sustainable Ibadan Project (SIP) as a methodology to turn Ibadan into a globally competitive and sustainable city. It will be of interest to urban planners worldwide, and to researchers and students of the Global South.

Book Synopsis Economic-Environmental Interaction Model by : Adebayo Michael Adebiyi
Download or read book Economic-Environmental Interaction Model written by Adebayo Michael Adebiyi and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there has been substantial progress in our understanding of institutions in development generally, less emphasis has been placed on the relevance of institutions to environment, particularly in developing countries like Nigeria. No wonder, most public policies have failed to promote sustainable development due to weak and inefficient institutional framework. Strong and efficient institutional framework will not only promote economic development but also ensure institutionally and environmentally sustainable development. Against this background, therefore, this paper is aimed at providing, not only a model of interaction between economic growth and environment but developing, an analytical framework that links institutions with environment. Relevant institutional and environmental factors are also identified and discussed. The policy implications of the model include the following. First, it is observed that when a country is faced with an initial low level of environmental quality due to poverty, the optimal strategy for promoting economic growth would be environmentally unsustainable. Second, the framework for analyzing interaction between institutions and environment stresses the fact that institutions cannot be isolated but are erected on a local setting influenced by formal and informal rules and regulations, social, economic, political and legal factors. The paper concludes that environmental sustainability can be achieved with a clear and well-defined institutional framework.
Book Synopsis Economic Trends and Sustainable Environmental Assessment by : Andrew Adewale Alola
Download or read book Economic Trends and Sustainable Environmental Assessment written by Andrew Adewale Alola and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-08-30 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book ‘Economic Trends and Sustainable Environmental Assessment’ attempts to x-ray the economic and socioeconomic activities, and cultural or behavioural aspects from the concept of sustainability by employing several related research scenarios spanning the micro-, meso-, and macro-level approaches. Given the increasing awareness of the importance of social, economic, environmental, and even now human sustainability aspects to a sustainable global (present) future, the relevance of the dimensions of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) need to be consistently examined. For instance, decades of climate-related disasters which have increasingly endangered humans are the reason for ongoing advanced advocacy, policy, and research towards achieving an environmentally sustainable or net zero emission (NZE) future. Thus, considering the illustration of the theoretical and practical dimensions of the connectedness of the economic and socioeconomic aspects with environmental dimensions, this book should hugely benefit students, researchers, and policymakers to further understand and solve some of the world’s lingering challenges.

This book was released on 2013-10-09 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2013 in the subject Economics - Case Scenarios, , language: English, abstract: This work X-rays the multidimensional relationship that occurs between infrastructure and economic development, evidence from Nigeria. The work develops an intuitive theory with a framework which examines this relationship by recognizing various channels through which infrastructure possibly affects development: as a factor of production, as a complementary significant factor of production, a stimulus to factor buildup, a stimulus to aggregate demand and an instrument to industrial policy. A framework is developed for evaluating and analyzing the theory of this relationship, which explores the implications of diverse definitions and measures of infrastructure on economic development. Empirical literature is then evaluated against this framework.

This book was released on 2017-02-03 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most African national economies depend on the exploitation of both renewable and non-renewable natural resources for development. Conventional and unconventional exploitation of natural resources has left negative carbon footprints. This has also degraded hotspots across the African continent, impacting negatively on people and the environment. A Green Economy offers the continent the opportunity to achieve sustained economic development devoid of environmental degradation and inefficient utilisation of natural resources. This book, Promoting Green Economy, explores issues affecting the socio-economic development of the continent and focuses on Africa’s need for a green economy. With chapters written by seasoned authors from academia and industry across the continent, the book examines the challenges of sustainable management of Africa’s natural resources and recommends the need for the continent to transit towards green economy as this can provide opportunities for minimising environmental footprints of all economic activities. The book calls on the commitment of the public and private sectors to the development of appropriate green economy policies and regulatory frameworks to promote inclusive growth.
