Download or read book Evaluaci n del sistema de gestion ambiental de una agencia de cooperacion internacional written by Paula Andrea López Arbeláez and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resumen: El presente documento evalúa el Sistema de Gestión Ambiental de una Agencia de Cooperación Internacional que apoya programas de Desarrollo Alternativo y Sustitución de Cultivos Ilícitos, a través de una descripción detallada de los elementos y procedimientos que conforman el Sistema de Gestión Ambiental (SIGA), se evaluó este con la herramienta DOFA parte interna, para determinar las debilidades y fortalezas y proponer acciones que permitan mejorarlo. Las debilidades encontradas que más afectan el Sistema se identificaron en los procedimientos de aprobación ambiental. De igual manera las revisiones ambientales pueden no ser muy objetivas debido a que son preparadas por la misma entidad que ejecutará los recursos de la Cooperación Internacional, así como el monitoreo y la evaluación de los planes de manejo ambiental. Por otro lado las guías ambientales no contienen la información suficiente para guiar a los ejecutores de los proyectos en la implementación de medidas ambientalmente amigables. Las acciones más importantes a realizar consisten en ajustar los procedimientos que puedan afectar el Sistema como son: Modificar el formato de solicitud de exclusión categórica con información relevante acerca de la ubicación del proyecto, anexando fotografías, mapas etc. Cambiar la metodología cualitativa de evaluación de impacto ambiental por una cuantitativa teniendo en cuenta distintas variables, mejorar las guías ambientales agregándoles información como: marcos jurídicos, evaluaciones de impacto que detallen la actividad donde se generan estos, descripciones detalladas de las medidas de mitigación apropiadas para cada impacto en las actividades productivas.

Download or read book The North American Mosaic written by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 or read book Sustainable Tourism written by Gerda K. Priestley and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although widely advocated, sustainable tourism is subject to numerous interpretations -- from environmentally friendly forms of tourism to maintaining the economic viability of tourist activity in a specific place. This book explores various views on sustainable tourism and demonstrates its complexity and diversity, in order to clarify the issues in operational terms. It addresses questions such as: can tourist activity be sustainable economically; can tourism lead to sustainability from an environmental perspective; and what is the role of tourism as a sustainable development strategy? Much of the book consists of a series of European case studies, from the U.K., France, Spain, Italy and Greece. These case studies cover three main themes: recreation and tourism in natural and rural areas; coastal tourism; and islands. The book represents a valuable supplementary text for students of tourism, as well as related disciplines such as geography, economics, environmental management, and local and regional planning and development.

Download or read book Confronting Climate Uncertainty in Water Resources Planning and Project Design written by Patrick A. Ray and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-08-20 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confronting Climate Uncertainty in Water Resources Planning and Project Design describes an approach to facing two fundamental and unavoidable issues brought about by climate change uncertainty in water resources planning and project design. The first is a risk assessment problem. The second relates to risk management. This book provides background on the risks relevant in water systems planning, the different approaches to scenario definition in water system planning, and an introduction to the decision-scaling methodology upon which the decision tree is based. The decision tree is described as a scientifically defensible, repeatable, direct and clear method for demonstrating the robustness of a project to climate change. While applicable to all water resources projects, it allocates effort to projects in a way that is consistent with their potential sensitivity to climate risk. The process was designed to be hierarchical, with different stages or phases of analysis triggered based on the findings of the previous phase. An application example is provided followed by a descriptions of some of the tools available for decision making under uncertainty and methods available for climate risk management. The tool was designed for the World Bank but can be applicable in other scenarios where similar challenges arise.

Download or read book Mahatma Gandhi written by Dennis Dalton and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-21 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dennis Dalton's classic account of Gandhi's political and intellectual development focuses on the leader's two signal triumphs: the civil disobedience movement (or salt satyagraha) of 1930 and the Calcutta fast of 1947. Dalton clearly demonstrates how Gandhi's lifelong career in national politics gave him the opportunity to develop and refine his ideals. He then concludes with a comparison of Gandhi's methods and the strategies of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, drawing a fascinating juxtaposition that enriches the biography of all three figures and asserts Gandhi's relevance to the study of race and political leadership in America. Dalton situates Gandhi within the "clash of civilizations" debate, identifying the implications of his work on continuing nonviolent protests. He also extensively reviews Gandhian studies and adds a detailed chronology of events in Gandhi's life.
