Editoral Environment, sustainability and health: the learning curve steepens Recent international strife is showing that a divided, unequal and insecure world is inimical to peace, wellbeing and health. We should be seeking a sustainably ordered world, and not a political New World Order. MJA
The dramatic events The interdependence, reciprocity and increasing connectedness of the world's nations are now more evident than ever before. We are "globalising". This, in turn, entails an increased flow of information that reveals economic disparities, inequalities of trading regimens, persistence of poverty in many poor populations, and the magnitude and ubiquity of serious environmental deterioration. . . . even in the modern, affluent, urbanising world, humankind is dependent on intact life-support systems and is subject to the constraints of environmental carrying capacity. Here, though, there is another tension. Despite the incipient evidence of global-scale environmental damage such as climate change and biodiversity losses, and the marked widening of the rich-poor gap over recent decades

Environmental sustainability possible within a generation,
Dr. Suzuki tells Prime Minister and municipal leaders February 05, 2004
OTTAWA - Canada can achieve economic and environmental sustainability within a generation if governments work with industry and public policy groups to address major issues like using water and electricity more efficiently, reducing waste and pollution, increasing investment in urban transit, and improving how we plan cities to curb urban sprawl, says a new report by the David Suzuki Foundation released here today. "This is neither a lofty goal nor some obscure academic idea," said Dr. David Suzuki, who presented the report, Sustainability Within a Generation: A new vision for Canada, to municipal and federal leaders at a sustainable communities conference hosted by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities. "Sustainability means living within Earth’s limits so that Canadians don’t have to think twice before drinking tap water or breathing the air in our cities," said Dr. Suzuki. "We need to understand that a healthy economy is inextricably linked to a healthy environment – it’s not one or the other. "But we also must ensure we are truly innovative. Innovation does not mean continuing to provide large subsidies to unsustainable sectors like the oil, gas, coal and nuclear industries while giving a tiny fraction of that support to sustainable sectors like wind, solar, micro-hydro and biogas. Now is the time for fundamental change so that future generations can enjoy resources we take for granted –like clean air and water – and do not pay the price because we squandered this wealth."

IFPRI Home 2020 Vision Publications and Resources Catalog Briefs 2020 Brief No. 59 Agricultural Growth, Poverty Alleviation, and Environmental Sustainability: Having it All Peter Hazell March 1999 THE FIVE I’S FOR AGRICULTURAL GROWTH The requirements for broad-based agricultural development are reasonably well understood and should not be forgotten in the contemporary quest for environmental sustainability. Since they are so important, they are briefly reviewed here. Back in the 1950s and 1960s, policymakers and agricultural development experts were primarily interested in growth, and the lessons that emerged from that experience can be summarized as the five I’s for agricultural growth.
    Innovation. Strong national agricultural research and extension systems (both public and private) to generate and disseminate productivity-enhancing technologies. Infrastructure , particularly good road and transport systems. Inputs . Efficient delivery systems for agricultural services, especially for modern farm inputs, agroprocessing, irrigation water, and credit. Institutions . Efficient, liberalized markets that provide farmers with ready access to domestic and international markets and effective public institutions to provide key services where these cannot be devolved to the private sector.

Urban Environment
Around 80% of the European Union’s population lives in cities and towns. Urban areas are therefore the places where environmental problems most affect the quality of life of Europe’s citizens. Urban areas also create environmental problems in their own right due to the high density of activities that take place there. This high level of urbanisation within Europe means that there is a strong urban dimension to many of the Community's environmental policies. In addition, the urban environment is increasingly discussed as a subject in its own right as reflected in the requirement in the 6 th Environmental Action Programme to prepare a Thematic Strategy on the Urban Environment This web page gives information on the Environment DG's urban environment policy initiatives opportunities for funding for sustainable urban development and relevant work undertaken by other Directorate Generals of the Commission.

Index
An Initiative of the Global Leaders for Tomorrow Environment Task Force, World Economic Forum The Environmental Sustainability Index (ESI) The Environmental Sustainability Index (ESI) is a measure of overall progress towards environmental sustainability, developed for 142 countries. The ESI scores are based upon a set of 20 core "indicators," each of which combines two to eight variables for a total of 68 underlying variables. The ESI permits cross-national comparisons of environmental progress in a systematic and quantitative fashion. It represents a first step towards a more analytically driven approach to environmental decisionmaking.
The documents made available here provide in-depth details on the analytical framework, quantitative methodology, and data sources that underlie the ESI . We welcome criticisms, suggestions, and comments.
The ESI is the result of collaboration among the World Economic Forum's Global Leaders for Tomorrow Environment Task Force, The Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy, and the Columbia University Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN).

Introduction
This well-established and successful course is offered by the Centre for the Study of Environmental Change and Sustainability , which began operating in 1997. The course is designed both for students whose primary interest is in the application of science and engineering to environmental problems and also to students interested in the human ecological and socio-economic aspects of sustainability. Its wide-ranging, interdisciplinary approach to sustainability issues reflects that of the Centre itself. The aims of the Centre are to promote research and teaching in the areas of environmental change and sustainability, by working across traditional disciplinary boundaries, both within and outside the University. It is located within the University's College of Science and Engineering, home to over one thousand academic and research staff working in most branches of physical and biological science and engineering. The Centre also works in partnership with the Scottish Agricultural College , academic units from the University's College of Humanities and Social Science, and with external organisations, bringing together expertise in a wide range of disciplines to deliver the MSc programme. The Centre's facilities (including the
