Firstly, radical increases in resource efficiency.

(k) Resource efficiency To minimize the use of scarce and non renewable resources in the development and operation of tourism facilities and services

And let's start with radical increases in resource efficiency.

(iv) To stimulate the development and diffusion of technologies designed to increase the efficiency of resource use or reduce the impacts of drivers such as climate change and nutrient loading

Enhancing water use efficiency and managing competing uses

Higher fuel use intensity implies lower energy efficiency

We've made improvements in energy and resource efficiency, but the consumer sector, especially in America, is very inefficient.

The Plan encourages an accelerated shift towards sustainable consumption and production, where appropriate de linking economic growth and environmental degradation through improved efficiency and sustainability in the use of resources and reduced resource degradation, pollution and waste.

One of the limitations of this approach for sound public administration is that profit maximization and efficiency of resource use are essential but not sufficient with respect to promoting and protecting public goods, such as the environment.

For example, improving energy efficiency and material use efficiency has been undertaken in many sectors under cleaner production and environmental management initiatives.

When it has a scarce resource that it wants to turn into a desirable outcome, it thinks in terms of efficiency.

Resource rich economies can use commodity stabilization funds to support economic diversity.

Both programmes focus on African issues and use primarily African resource persons.

All countries should promote sustainable consumption and production patterns with programmes addressing the de linking of economic growth and environmental degradation through improved efficiency and sustainability in the use of resources and production processes, and reduction in resource degradation, pollution and waste.

Based largely on the principles of private sector management, public sector organizations are being increasingly expected to be able to compete with public and private sector entities in terms of per unit cost of services, client orientation and the efficiency of resource use.

So returning to those big challenges that I mentioned at the beginning radical increases in resource efficiency, closing loops and a solar economy.

The motives were largely similar across regions and were dependent on the types of OFDI (market seeking, efficiency seeking, resource seeking, asset augmenting).

So I think the Eden Project is a fairly good example of how ideas from biology can lead to radical increases in resource efficiency delivering the same function, but with a fraction of the resource input.

The efficiency of the use of dynamic information seems to be significantly compromised in autism.

Dawn raids are resource intensive the competition agency must be selective in their use.

But astonishingly, it is coal, the dirtiest fuel, that is experiencing the sharpest increase in use. Companies and investors are hedging their bets by taking a few resource efficiency measures and investing in some low carbon assets, but leaving their high carbon portfolios and activities largely intact.

In the case of energy efficiency, UNIDO adopts a systems based approach, which aims at optimizing the efficiency of the energy systems that factories use to deliver the services provided by electricity, gas and other fuels to the point of use in the plant.

unless I use a front loading, high efficiency washing machine, and then it looks a little bit better.

Several delegations welcomed the use of key performance indicators to enable UNICEF to better monitor its organizational efficiency.

And this is a measure of how much well being we get for our planetary resource use.

Finally, farmers rights need to be protected, the efficiency of land use must be increased, and policies for acquisition of rural land for urban use should be overhauled.

(c) Controlling growth in the use of fuel and power by industries through increased energy end use efficiency slows growth in the emissions of climate damaging greenhouse gases.

Objective To improve the efficiency of the Organization through the prudent use of ICT and its effectiveness through knowledge management.

The use of the new system would promote efficiency and motivation and, in the long term, facilitate credible performance evaluation.

In addition, awareness raising, education, and extension services for farmers are important for improving overall water use efficiency and productivity.

The programme also aims to increase resource efficiency and better management by introducing the concept of cleaner production in participating industrial companies and to strengthen the capacity of local partners.

First of all, this is where we're projected to go with the U.S. contribution to global warming, under business as usual. Efficiency in end use electricity and end use of all energy is the low hanging fruit. Efficiency and conservation it's not a cost it's a profit. The sign is wrong.

29. Encourages the use of procurement within the region for the requirements of missions, taking into account efficiency and cost effectiveness

In some instances, energy consumption can be reduced by 50 80 per cent depending on the current level of use efficiency.

Status, management and use of the resources for the promotion of South South cooperation and related resource mobilization initiatives

Clearly, there are environmental drawbacks from the use of coal as an energy resource, and these concerns are far too important to overlook. The massive reserves notwithstanding, coal is still a finite resource.

Enhancing energy conservation and efficiency are key for decoupling economic growth from increased energy use, and thus for driving sustainable development worldwide.

They contribute to human resource development and institution building by supporting the use of Southern experts and transfers of technology.

UNIDO's services under this service module cover the fields of rural energy for productive use and energy efficiency, as well as climate change.

The use of cross border M As as a market entry strategy has increased for resource seeking and asset augmenting OFDI.

The use of ICT is an important resource for the empowerment of women and girls, including through creating new economic opportunities.

There is, of course, wide variation in the nature and motives of FDI from different regions of the developing world, with important examples of natural resource seeking, market seeking and efficiency seeking FDI.

Measures in energy supply included energy efficiency and conservation, increasing transformation efficiency, modernization of thermoelectric utilities, fuel switching, electricity imports, reduction of losses in transmission and distribution, development of plans to promote rural electrification and use of renewable energy sources.

Welcomes the use of the Entebbe installation to enhance the efficiency and responsiveness of its logistical support operations for peacekeeping missions in the regions

With a view to achieving this efficiency, has Mauritius put in place a unified data system for use at all entry or exit points?
