乌鲁木齐市大气污染成因分析及防治对策

乌鲁木齐市大气污染十分严重,并已被列入世界十大污染城市之一。乌鲁木齐所处山口地形、三面环山的特殊地理条件所形成的逆温层是造成大气严重污染的主要原因。本文就逆温层形成、污染源排放特点等影响因素进行分析,以提出切实可行的防治方法及解决途径,以达到明显改善乌鲁木齐大气环境质量的目的。     

珠江三角洲快速城市化地区生态安全研究——以佛山市为例

借助于统计学分析方法、Landsat7ETM+遥感影像解译及GIS综合评价手段,构建了相对生态压力比值REP、相对剩余生态容量值R REC及相对生态风险度指数RERI,对珠江三角洲快速城市化的典型城市佛山市进行了区域开发的生态承载力分析及生态风险度评价,揭示了佛山市域的生态安全总体态势及问题成因;并从区域可持续发展角度提出应重视在区域开发中尽可能科学合理地维护林地、湿地、农田、城市防护林带等自然及半自然景观要素的系统性与连续性,从宏观尺度上引导城市集聚并对城市化的不良生态后果予以积极预防和有效调控,从而降低城镇化的生态风险。

城市适度人口规模研究

一个城市的适度人口规模既与经济发展水平密切相关,它是由所在地区的资源、环境等因素决定的。秦皇岛市是中国北方极度缺水的城市一,水资源构成了限制城市发展的短板因素。通过调整用水结构和采用节水技术,虽可使城市居民的用水份额适度增加,但总量约束决定了该城市的人口规模要保持在与水资源相适应的限度内。     

景观资源的评价与保护

黄河三角洲二元结构与多元可持续发展初探

黄河三角洲由石油资源的开发而兴起,其区位条件和油气资源条件都十分优越,但目前仍处于经济发达地区的低谷区。通过对二元结构系数的定量分析,发现该地区具有明显的复合二元结构特征,即“油地+城乡”,二元结构是制约三角洲持续发展的一个重要限制性因素。目前,石油产业的全面改组改制、优越的外部环境和自身基础条件、东营港扩建及其附属加工制造业基地的立项、综合性交通运输网络体系的形成等都是三角洲全面发展的难得机遇。要实现多元可持续发展的目标,必须转变观念,由“以油建城”到“以港兴城”、大力发展资源深加工工业和具有竞争优势的制造业;构建高效生态农业经济体系;推进城市的“内聚式”发展。     

The adoption of green business practices among small US Midwestern manufacturing enterprises

Manufacturers around the world green their businesses for a variety of reasons, including competitiveness, social responsibility, and external stakeholder pressure. However, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are thought to lag behind larger ones in the adoption of green business practices. This paper explores the motivations for US Midwestern SMEs adopting a variety of green business practices, using a survey of 59 SMEs in the tool and die manufacturing industry. The majority of firms appear to be internally motivated to implement green practices – driven primarily by cost and competitiveness concerns, more than by social responsibility concerns. External coercive pressure from government or customers does not appear to be a significant motivation for these SMEs. However, informal pressure through government incentives and support programs, as well as mimetic pressure through peer learning via industry associations, appear to be more effective in helping these SMEs to further ‘go green.’     

Green jobs for the disadvantaged in British Columbia: the perspectives of non-governmental organisations and social entrepreneurs

This paper examines the actions and potential of green jobs for the disadvantaged, from the perspective of non-governmental organisations and social entrepreneurs. The populations of interest include: low-income, developmentally challenged, those with mental health or addiction issues, women, and First Nations. Findings indicate that green businesses and social entrepreneurs have uniquely engaged in social training and hiring strategies related to green jobs. The major challenges they face include a lack of policies that support the development of green jobs through social training and hiring. As a result of these findings, an argument is made for combining job and life skills for both disadvantaged populations and the agencies that serve them as well as building the capacity of employers to practise social hiring.
