Thesis (M. Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2006.<br>Includes bibliographical references (leaves 40-41).<br>The dawn of the new millennium has brought to light the environmental concerns of global warming, pollution, limited landfill space, and depleting natural resources. These concerns, compounded by the growing global population, have peaked interests in sustainability.

Abstract:
Corporate environmental responsibility is an emerging concept in developing countries, especially ones where environmental legislation regulating business activity is not enforced. In some instances, business actors voluntarily organize a collective action to institute the adoption of environmental best practices within a given industrial sector. This is the case of the cement industry in Morocco. This research aimed to determine why and how Moroccan cement companies chose to green their industrial processes and adopt environmental best practices. Using a process tracing methodology

Abstract:
This research focuses on the involvement of chemists in professional Canadian environmentalism. We confront opposed research and development sector perspectives (government, industry, and university) to describe how incompatabilities between them resist cross-sectoral interaction and limit disciplinary greening. We then refer to original questionnaire and interview data to discuss the greening force of professional associations on a multisectoral discipline (chemistry). Finally, we consider plausible research avenues in the sociology of environment to address the current and future status of e

Abstract:
The contemporary world landscape is epitomised by a highly globalised world economy, where neo-liberal agendas push for ultimate competitiveness and much of the manufacturing and production processes have been relocated from core to semi-peripheral countries. To be able to compete in the global arena, many developing nations and newly emerging economies have sacrificed an approach to sustainable development by neglecting social and ecological aspects. A showcase of such unsustainable growth in recent years can be observed in Tirupur, South India. Tirupur’s heavy export orientation of ready-kni

Abstract:
In a market economy, the behaviour of firms determines the extent and type of anthropogenic impacts that affect natural ecosystems. As such it is critical that the regulation of corporate behaviour is closely appraised. All economic production systems use natural resource inputs and release waste emissions to environmental sinks; they also contribute to sustainability in terms of income generation. The analysis of economic efficiency is thus coined in terms of juxtaposing and balancing these effects and the role of regulation is to intervene so that the outcome (in terms of corporate behaviour

The term, sustainable development, is not new in our society. However, understanding the concept of sustainable development is not without problems. What does the concept mean in business and management? It is observed that ecological issues are neglected by mainstream management academics and practices. Conventional strategic management and organisational study do not include the &quot;green&quot; ecological environment issues as part of business environment.

The New Zealand pipfruit industry has changed dramatically over the past fifteen years due to major industry restructuring and deregulation, and also due to the adoption of more environmentally sustainable growing strategies.

The importance of the environmental agenda for the industry has been rising exponentially at the international level in recent years. Firms are increasingly challenged to introduce new products or processes that lower the impacts on the environment while consolidating their competitive advantage. The peculiarities of these innovations and the increasing disintegration of production at the global level challenge firms to coordinate with value chain partners in order to successfully reduce their overall environmental impacts.

Climate change (CC) was first declared a pressing global issue in 1992 and is currently associated with impacting on fossil fuel (FF) prices. In many ways, the dynamics of CC and international political responses thereof, appear to have affected significantly the supply and demand chains of FF companies. In 1997, the Kyoto Protocol (KP) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) was adopted in an attempt to mitigate global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
