Expediting co-benefits of tailored municipal solid waste management strategies globally
Geospatial Analysis of Malaria and Typhoid Prevalence Due to Waste Dumpsite Exposure in Kinshasa Districts with and Without Waste Services
Municipal solid waste (MSW) management poses substantial challenges in rapidly urbanizing areas, with implications for both the environment and public health. This study focuses on the city of Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of Congo, investigating whether the presence or absence of solid waste collection services results in varying health and economic impacts, and additionally, seeking to establish a correlation between residing in proximity…
Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment and System Dynamics Model Analysis for an Integrated Household E-Waste Management System in Yaoundé, Cameroon
Electronic waste (E-waste) is a global environmental issue and a contemporary challenge in developing countries, where implementing sustainable E-waste management policies is required to mitigate the adverse impacts of inappropriate treatment and disposal. This study assesses the environmental and human health impacts of the current E-waste management system in Yaoundé. The study then proposes an integrated E-waste management system (IEMS) with p…
Mitigation policies evaluation in the electric power sector for carbon neutrality, water conservation, and economic growth in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region
Historical evolution and development of waste management and recycling systems—analysis of Japan's experiences
Energy intensity trends and scenarios for China’s industrial sectors
Comparative analysis of socio-economic and environmental performances for Chinese EIPs
Educational initiative of Osaka University in sustainability science
One of the most important and yet difficult challenges that modern societies face is how to mobilize science and technology (S&T) to minimize the impact of human activities on the Earth’s life support systems. As the establishment of inter-disciplinary education programs is necessary to design a unified vision towards understanding the complexity of human nature, the Research Institute for Sustainability Science (RISS) launched a new program on s…
Sustainability assessment with time-series scores
Asian nations are currently facing a number of challenges, including environmental degradation and growing societal inequalities, in the course of their rapid economic growth and industrialization. Under such conditions, it is of critical importance to develop appropriate assessment tools with which to comprehensively measure the sustainability status of a region in order to guide its transformation into a sustainable society. This paper proposes…
New Risk Management Training Programs in Higher Education in Japan – A Comparative Study and a Challenge by Osaka University
Risks such as health risks derived from hazardous chemicals, energy security associated with electric power supply, and accidental risks at work need to be coped with by professionals in the areas concerned. Risk managers must deal with numerous different topics. They are expected to be familiar with legal requirements, scientific analysis methods, management strategies, and communication skills. Many firms in the USA and Europe already employ ce…
The pathway to a sustainable industrial society – initiative of the Research Institute for Sustainability Science (Riss) at Osaka University
While it is widely known that sustainable development is the only sound and viable pathway for humankind’s future, its attainment remains elusive despite intensive efforts and some successes. The current industrial society approach based on product and process innovation in a variety of fields is not providing the expected results in addressing this important issue. In an attempt to carry out this unavoidable task, Osaka University’s Research Ins…
Eco‐efficiency of Advanced Loop‐closing Systems for Vehicles and Household Appliances in Hyogo Eco‐town
The closing of material loops is a critical challenge in industrial ecology. It relies mainly on the utilization of recovered materials/parts/products in the original and principal production system while their original function is retained at the highest level possible. In this study, advanced loop‐closing systems for the recycling of end‐of‐life vehicles and electric household appliances are first designed in “Hyogo Eco‐town.” Second, a methodo…
