The Role of Economics in Environmental Management

...

Selecting even a few actions from the vast array of options for greening the planet to incorporate into daily activities can protect water resources, improve air quality, reduce waste and raise awareness of environmental issues. Environmental damage is the result and effect of pollution. Like increasing of solid waste pollution because of poor waste management practices allow contaminants such as lead and mercury to reach into soil and water supplies. So we need to stop the cause before it’s too late and that is to prevent the pollution.

III. Environmental Objectives:

- Environmental Quality

The objective in environmental quality is to reduce anthropogenic contamination to a level that is acceptable to society. These factors are gains in human health and ecosystems, expenditures needed to achieve the reduction, availability of technology, and the relative risk of a given environmental hazard.

- Sustainable Development

Managing the earth’s resources to ensure their long term quality and abundance. Achieving an appropriate balance between economic growth and the preservation of natural resources is the essence of sustainable development. Protecting and creating healthy environments is a critical component of sustainable development.

- Biodiversity

The variety of distinct species, their genetic variability and the variety of ecosystems they inhabit. They believe that the variety of species on earth is the most important to the ecology. Beyond the preservation of a species for its own sake, it is also the case that all life in earth is inexorably connected.

- What can you do to attain this objectives?

Implementing and enforcing environmental standards and regulations, monitoring pollution levels and human exposures, building environments that support healthy lifestyles, and considering the risks of pollution in decision-making can improve health and quality of life for all people.

I think we need to do some Collaboration and Competition. Collaborating in terms of moving forward towards the same goal. Competition among all to develop and implement the most effective and fastest way to reach there. I would have liked to say pragmatic, but I guess getting there fast is of essence here, because we might be too far behind to be pragmatic in or approach.

We can participate in biodiversity conservation by increasing our knowledge of environmental issues, increasing our awareness of the impacts of biodiversity loss, and increasing support for government policies and actions that conserve our valuable ecosystems.

We can become educators and role models as stewards of the environment by aiding in the recovery of species at risk and preventing other species from becoming at risk. I think that the thing that we need to do you achieve, reach and attain the objectives above.

- What policy of government can attain this objectives?

The goals of environmental quality, sustainable development, and biodiversity set an ambitious agenda. This means all the society must work towards developing effective environmental policy initiatives. So I suggest all the policy is needed to attain this objectives, the risk management, pollution prevention, and (NEPA) national environmental policy act.
