We have strengthened the verification system through enhanced use of satellite imagery, environmental sampling and a variety of new technologies.

What synergy within the Convention and other multilateral environmental agreements might be pursued to enhance the work on technologies for adaptation?

This will create important challenges for the development of cleaner technologies and improved environmental management systems, as well as for innovation and technology diffusion.

They will also help the establishment of national implementation plans and programmes to promote the introduction and diffusion of best available technologies best environmental practices and ESTs, such as non combustion technologies to eliminate POP wastes and POP contaminated equipment.

Funded entirely by Italy, the Centre offered assistance in the areas of pure and applied chemistry, earth, environmental and marine science technologies and high technology systems.

For example, through easier sharing and transfer of knowledge and technologies, potential new win win alternatives exist to the traditional trade offs between growth and environmental sustainability.

The problem of relative environmental performance could be overcome either by setting up a proper review mechanism or by including entire plants or technologies in the list.

They are also influenced by factors such as, inter alia, the international political situation, including peace and security issues the global and regional economic environment the development of new technologies, for example, information and communication technologies (ICT) and environmental issues, such as natural disasters.

UNIDO will focus on promoting modern technologies and processes that are cleaner and more environmentally sustainable, both within and outside the framework of the Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs).

Young people are committed to the principles of corporate social responsibility, as well as setting up environmental enterprises such as ecotourism and the wider adoption of green technologies.

There are three areas where transfer and effective use of environmentally sound technologies (ESTs) could be of particular importance over the next few years addressing domestic environmental problems such as urban pollution enhancing energy and material efficiency and complying with environmental requirements in export markets.

It is the repository of cutting edge sustainable technologies, pioneering research and development, world class management, and leadership in environmental sustainability. Yet at the same time, the corporate sector lobbies aggressively to gut environmental regulations, slash corporate tax rates, and avoid their own responsibility for ecological destruction.

By actually taking the opportunity that new technologies, new interactive technologies, present to re script our interactions, to script them, not just as isolated, individuated interactions, but as collective aggregating actions that can amount to something, we can really begin to address some of our important environmental challenges.

It will involve introducing clean technologies, training miners, developing regulatory mechanisms and capacities within Government, conducting environmental and health assessments, and building capacities in local laboratories to continue monitoring mercury pollution.

The achievement of such an enabling technology diffusion setup requires technological vision and drive, focused strengthening of institutions, adoption of best practices and best available technologies and compliance with multilateral environmental agreements.

(ix) Ensure that, for the implementation of new technologies, a careful risk benefit analysis of their impact on the specific environmental and socio economic conditions of a country is a mandatory prerequisite

Through panel discussions, the Workshop developed general principles on how developing countries could use space technologies, including remote sensing and space communications systems for health care, environmental monitoring and economic and social development.

This will promote specific environmental and energy related technologies, and stimulate investment and technology flows from developed countries to developing countries, while also enabling the implementation of clean technology and energy efficiency projects.

The achievement of such an enabling technology diffusion set up requires technological vision and drive, focused strengthening of institutions, adoption of best practices and best available technologies, and compliance with multilateral environmental agreements.

This requires, inter alia, including the costs of externalities such as environmental degradation in energy pricing and using subsidies to bring down the initial costs of new technologies in order to make them more competitive.

Among the prerequisites for achieving the set goals are the development of infrastructure, including roads, docks, water and energy supply systems, telecommunications, schools and hospitals the introduction of new technologies and environmental management et cetera.

The Expert Group on Best Available Techniques and Best Environmental Practices has considered the request from the Basel Convention inviting bodies of the Stockholm Convention to consider best available techniques and best environmental practices with respect to unintentionally produced persistent organic pollutants, including the more recent technologies for destruction and irreversible transformation listed in the general technical guidelines.

We need long term public investment strategies, environmental planning, technology roadmaps, public private partnerships for new, sustainable technologies, and greater global cooperation. These tools will create the new macroeconomics on which our health and prosperity now depend.

Environmental management This consists of environmental modification, environmental manipulation and measures to reduce human vector contact.

The Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space had long realized that a number of space technologies and applications were available to meet numerous developmental challenges, such as reducing poverty and preventing infectious diseases and environmental degradation.

2. Requests the Commission on Science and Technology for Development to provide a forum to address within its mandate the special needs of developing countries in areas such as agriculture, rural development, information and communication technologies and environmental management

While maintaining its focus on the more traditional agricultural and industrial sectors, the subprogramme will also place special emphasis on services sectors, particularly the emerging area of information and communications technologies, and on the social and environmental dimensions of productive development.

Recording and marking technologies.

He said many countries identified soft technologies, such as geographic information systems and technologies for measurement, monitoring, and verification such as tide gauges, rather than hard technologies for adaptation.

The analysis on environmental goods and services (EGS) focuses on identifying environmental goods of potential environmental and trade interest for developing countries.

So we set out at Interface, in 1994, to create an example to transform the way we made carpet, a petroleum intensive product for materials as well as energy, and to transform our technologies so they diminished environmental impact, rather than multiplied it.

PITTSBURGH In 1971, President Richard M. Nixon launched a war against cancer. But, nearly four decades later, the battle remains focused on highly profitable efforts to develop drugs and technologies to treat the disease while virtually ignoring environmental factors that cause it.

(ii) decide to cooperate closely for its effective implementation of sustainable development activities, through collaborative capacity building efforts in environmental management, exchanges in technological and scientific know how and the development of state of the art environmentally sound technologies among developing countries.
