WASHINGTON — President Obama on Wednesday nominated Sally Jewell, the chief executive of Recreational Equipment Inc., to lead the Interior Department, with a vow that she will balance the agency's sometimes conflicting mandates to promote resource development and preserve the nation's natural heritage.
Significant changes to infrastructure are required for a low carbon future EU initiative to promote resource efficiency Using land wisely is crucial for protecting ecosystem services Why the ecology crisis poses a threat to business as usual Victor Anderson is One Planet Economy leader at WWF This content is brought to you by Guardian Professional.
They have demonstrated to improve portability, speed up reconfiguration, and promote resource abstraction hence durability.
We show that it is possible to establish mappings that promote resource sharing and, at the same time, minimize interference.
Consequently, political measures, needed to promote resource efficiency in mining, should focus on region-specific aspects and the properties of the mined ore deposit.
The produced maps contribute to the negotiation and designation of priority areas with decision makers in (participatory) landscape planning processes to enhance water resources management and to promote resource-saving land use.
Numerous examples of diversification and intensification are being documented in contexts of resource abundance shaped, in part, by deliberate human efforts at ecosystem engineering intended to promote resource productivity.
We found an axis of structural differentiation that segregates understory from canopy species, and an axis of functional differentiation that segregates species that maximize resource acquisition from those that promote resource conservation.
The article also discusses the potential evolution of end-of-life scenarios for electronic displays and suggests possible recommendations for recyclers, producers and policy-makers to promote resource efficiency in the recycling of such waste products.
These selection pressures are likely to promote resource polymorphism among populations that inhabit different bottom environments.
Here we examined another possible selection pressure that can promote resource polymorphism in fish in lake environments: selection derived from differential composition of bottom substrates.
