"Environmental policy is the commitment of an organization or government to the laws, regulations, and other policy mechanisms concerning environmental issues."
This type of sustainability focuses on designing products and systems that are politically sustainable and comply with regulations and laws.
Political ecology: The study of the relationships between politics, economics, and social factors in relation to the management of natural resources and the environment.
Environmental policy: The laws and regulations that govern environmental issues, such as pollution, natural resource management, and climate change mitigation.
Sustainable development: The pursuit of economic growth, social development, and environmental protection in a way that balances the needs of the present with those of future generations.
Climate change adaptation: The strategies and policies aimed at helping communities and ecosystems prepare for and cope with the impacts of climate change.
Energy policy: The policies and strategies aimed at promoting the use of renewable energy sources and reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases.
Global governance: The systems and institutions that facilitate cooperation and coordination among nations to address global issues such as climate change, environmental degradation, and resource depletion.
Corporate sustainability: The policies and practices of businesses aimed at minimizing their impact on the environment, promoting social responsibility, and creating economic value.
Environmental justice: The fair and equitable distribution of environmental benefits and burdens among different communities, including issues related to race, class, and gender.
Ecosystem services: The benefits that people and society derive from nature, such as clean air and water, biodiversity, and climate regulation.
Natural resource management: The strategies and policies aimed at sustainable use and preservation of natural resources, such as forests, oceans, and freshwater systems.
Participatory democracy: This involves active citizen involvement in decision-making processes that affect their lives.
Fair and just governance: It seeks to ensure that government policies and decision-making processes are not biased towards specific individuals or groups.
Transparency: This involves making government proceedings and decision-making processes open and accessible to the public.
Responsible resource management: Sustainable design aims to ensure that resources are used efficiently, and that their depletion is minimized.
Systemic thinking: It is the ability to view political issues holistically and consider all the interdependent factors that are involved.
Social equity: The concept of ensuring that everyone has access to the same opportunities and resources in society is important in political sustainability.
Circular economy: This concept involves maximizing resource efficiency by reducing waste, recycling materials, and managing resources in a closed loop system.
