A database on pharmaceuticals in the environment
Pharmaceutical pollution has raised concerns about how these contaminants affect ecosystems. Data to assess the environmental risk of pharmaceuticals exist but are dispersed and not always publicly accessible. To address this issue, the European Commission recently proposed to develop a data source for human medicinal products, involving relevant stakeholders, including healthcare and industry representatives. The aim of our study was to define t…
Solutions for global marine litter pollution
Since the 1950s the amount of plastics in the marine environment has increased dramatically. Worldwide there is a growing concern about the risks and possible adverse effects of (micro)plastics. This paper reflects on the sources and effects of marine litter and the effects of policies and other actions taken worldwide. Current knowledge offers a solid basis for effective action. Yet, so far the effects of policies and other initiatives are still…

Measuring the sustainability of a paper mill with indicators based on environmental utility space
Sustainability indicators for production systems are useful tools when realizing a sustainable development. In this paper a method to measure sustainability is elaborated and tested. The method is based on the idea that ecological sustainability can be measured by comparing the environmental use of a production system with the allocated environmental utility space. The sustainability of a paper mill is measured and the results are presented. Soci…
