This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report draws on lessons learned in urban development lending to build a conceptual framework for improving the delivery of services. This framework looks beyond local governments alone as the cause of poor performance and points toward reforming the incentives they face. The report examines key issues in service delivery, such as the need to clarify the division of functional responsibilities between levels of government, to make revenue sources correspond to functional responsibilities, and to establish a governmental system that balances central regulation with local incentives for responding to constituents. The book seeks to begin a global dialog on ways of improving urban service delivery and to serve as a catalyst for further learning from the rich experience of reform underway in many developing countries. The issues addressed in the report especially pertain to countries undertaking decentralization.

Download or read book European and International Experiences of Strategic Environmental Assessment written by Barry Sadler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-17 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the latest thinking in Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) and considers the key question of whether the processes are having a positive impact on strategic decision making, both in Europe and worldwide. As governments move to develop green agendas, the book explores the challenges of working within national systems, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of sector-specific SEA. The importance of stakeholder engagement is considered, as is the question of how to turn NIMBYs into WIMBYs – that is, creating positive reasons to encourage development and allow local stakeholders to profit. In assessing ways in which the practice of SEA can provide a new agenda for the 21st Century, the chapters explore current and emerging approaches, procedures and methods, along with ways in which SEA can be linked with other planning tools. The role of research and academia is considered, and the book looks beyond the current status of SEA to address the question of how practitioners can capitalise on the potential of SEA to become integrated into high-level policy as a key element of climate change mitigation strategies. Each chapter is written by internationally renowned authors and based on many years of experience in the field. The book will be essential reading for forward-thinking practitioners and students of SEA.

Download or read book Advances in Natural Dyes for Environmental Protection written by Syed Maqbool Geelani and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-12-06 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synthetic dyes, especially those used in the textile industry, are huge contributors to the damaging effects on ecosystems worldwide due to their toxic and non-biodegradable nature. Natural dyes, on the other hand, are interesting eco-friendly alternatives to synthetic ones. This new volume discusses the environmental pollution caused by dyes, presents advances in natural dyes, considers their advantages over synthetic dyes, and offers solutions to the difficulties related to the use of natural dyes. The volume also offers effective remediation strategies for the management of both natural and harmful synthetic dyes in the environment. Biotechnological tools and bioremediation strategies play a key role in dealing in eco-friendly manner with persistent pollutants such as dyes. This book discusses dyes derived from plant, animal, and microbial sources; conventional and non-conventional dyeing technology for textiles; and eco-friendly technology for dyeing processes. The book also goes into detail regarding the global market and challenges natural dyes face and why they are not being adopted on a large scale. The limitations of physical and chemical methods to treat polluted wastewater from dyes are also explored. Along the same line, the book proposes innovative management strategies and sustainable eco-friendly technologies to remediate dye pollution. This book details the holistic and multidisciplinary efforts being focused on trying to surpass the difficulties related to use of natural dyes while also addressing dye-pollution mitigation strategies. The book provides a plethora of useful information for academicians as well as researchers and students and industry professionals in the textile sector as well as in other manufacturing industries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feminist Political Ecology explores the gendered relations of ecologies, economies and politics in communities as diverse as the rubbertappers in the rainforests of Brazil to activist groups fighting racism in New York City. Women are often at the centre of these struggles, struggles which concern local knowledge, everyday practice, rights to resources, sustainable development, environmental quality, and social justice. The book bridges the gap between the academic and rural orientation of political ecology and the largely activist and urban focus of environmental justice movements.
