Key Issues in Environment and Sustainability

Key Issues

Transforming Social and Energy Systems

This book provides a concise and interdisciplinary introduction to sustainable development, examining its historical evolution, legal foundations, and contemporary governance challenges. It traces the emergence of sustainability from early ecological warnings to its institutionalization through international frameworks, demonstrating how sustainable development has become a central organizing principle of global policy.Organized around seven thematic chapters, the book covers the conceptual and legal foundations of sustainability, its core governance principles, socio-technical transition pathways, property and commons theory, global sustainability finance, and the implications of digitalization and artificial intelligence for development. Each chapter integrates legal analysis, governance theory, and, in some cases, real-world case studies to show how sustainability principles move from rhetoric to enforceable norms. Key features include accessible chapter abstracts, a comprehensive list of abbreviations, and a structured list of figures supporting visual learning. The book approaches sustainable development not as a technical toolkit but as a political and institutional challenge requiring systemic reform.The volume is intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students in environmental studies, law, governance, economics, and public policy, as well as researchers, practitioners, and policymakers engaged with sustainability transitions, international environmental law, and development governance.

The Shingo Model Series

Designing Systems That Shape Workplace Culture and Performance

Build Excellence

Everyone is talking about sustainability, yet its concrete meaning and consequences are often unclear. This handbook explains how global goals, climate change, and policy in the UN, EU 27, Germany, US, UK, and China fit together and shape our future.
It leads the reader from core concepts and key international agreements through a concise stock taking and long term outlook to concrete instruments for a more sustainable world. The handbook focuses on the real impact of global and European measures on economies, societies, and the planet. The role of Germany, the US, UK, and China is presented in each case.
Prof. Fieber assesses the achievements of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement. The countries responsible for global warming are identified and their contributions to improving the situation are compared. In addition, the advantages of liberal democracy over autocracy for achieving greater sustainability in one's own country and worldwide are a subject of this book.
The author¿s aim is to sharpen reader¿s awareness of the necessity for climate action while showing that ambitious sustainability policy can secure stable ecological, social, and economic foundations for future generations. 
It should also be made clear that every individual can contribute to greater sustainability. Taken together, government policy and these personal contributions can bring about a significant improvement in sustainability worldwide.

Anthem Environment and Sustainability Initiative

This textbook is designed to introduce the reader to important and emerging issues in contemporary environmental law, policy, economics, and science. It explains the roles and interactions of Congress, federal agencies, state governments, and the courts in protecting the environment and public health from pollution. Topics include common law; administrative law; the role of environmental impact assessments and endangered species protection; and the principal legislation and court decisions dealing with greenhouse gas emissions, conventional and toxic air pollution, water pollution, the control of toxic chemicals and hazardous waste, pollution prevention and primary accident prevention, and community right-to-know. The text also explores various alternatives to regulation and concludes with a brief treatise on sustainability. 
The evolving role of science and economics in legislative, regulatory, and judicial decision making is explored. The text analyzes pollution as an economic problem and a failure of markets, discusses the role of technological innovation and the concept of "dynamic" economic equilibrium, and evaluates economic incentives as an alternative or supplement to regulation. The book also provides an introduction to basic legal skills: how to read and understand judicial opinions, regulations, and statutes; how to discover the current state of the law in a specific area; and how to take action toward resolution of environmental problems. Throughout, the role of national and local politics in shaping and implementing environmental policy is acknowledged and evaluated.

Reclaiming the Environmental Agenda - Revised Edition

Environmental Law, Policy, and Economics

Design for Social Responsibility

This book explores how design decisions, from societal and policy-level interventions to business models and product-level choices, can reduce material intensity and support a transition to a regenerative future. The challenge of the twenty-first century is not simply how to consume more sustainably, but how to meet human needs while reducing pressure on global ecosystems. Designing Circularity addresses this challenge by reframing circularity as a systems problem: how to achieve the same, or better, outcomes for society with less material and energy throughput.At the centre of the book is a triple-layered systemic design framework for coordinating circular initiatives across socio-technical and policy systems, organisational business and service models, and products and assets. Drawing on research, practitioner insights, and real-world examples, the book shows how governments, businesses, not-for-profit organisations, and designers can work across these layers to reshape the conditions that influence production, consumption, and resource use.Through the lens of material intensity, Designing Circularity challenges readers to consider not only how products are made, but how systems are organised to meet human needs. It examines how effectively economies and sectors meet those needs in relation to the materials and energy they use, and how shared forms of provision can reduce dependence on materially intensive patterns of individual consumption. Written for researchers, practitioners, designers, industry leaders, and policymakers, the book offers a practical pathway for applying systems stewardship to create collective abundance within ecological limits.The Introduction and Chapters 1 and 3 of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 International license.

Stewardship, Policy, and the Circular Transition

Designing Circularity

“Mark has spent decades in the trenches of accounting and corporate governance. This book shares real, hard-won experience from large enterprises, working at scale, not on theory. He highlights a crucial need: keeping the finance function aligned with the actual shape of the business. Especially in the AI age, this is a rare, must-have guide for anyone reading (or preparing) management packs or sitting on a board.”
 — John Turner,
 CEO, XBRL International
 
 Financial reality is constructed, not discovered. What executives see in dashboards and board reports is not a neutral reflection of events, the outcome of a financial architecture that has evolved and accumulated over time.&nbsp;Consolidation logic, data models, validation rules, systems, escalation mechanisms, and reporting routines together form what the author calls the 'Translation Layer' that stands between raw economic activity and managerial visibility.
 
 The book develops a practical framework for understanding how financial architecture influences management information, capital allocation, risk visibility, governance, and decision making. Each chapter dissects a structural component of this architecture, demonstrating how design choices determine what becomes visible, comparable, and actionable at group level. It examines how reporting systems can produce technically correct numbers while obscuring strategic drift, weakening operational visibility, and masking emerging problems in cash flow, working capital, project performance, and organizational resilience. It also considers the implications of digital finance, ERP systems, XBRL, analytics, and AI for financial reporting and control.
 
 Bringing together financial management, corporate reporting, management control, and digital transformation, this book will be valuable to scholars and advanced practitioners in accounting, finance, governance, and business administration, as well as CFOs, controllers, board members, and executive education audiences seeking a deeper understanding of how financial representation shapes corporate judgment.
