    Toward Sustainable and Inclusive Regulatory Policies to Meet Public Demands

    Peer-reviewed publication
    Diciembre, 2019
    Global

It attempted to analyze these methods scientifically, by collecting information on public demands. The results confirmed that there is a demand for policy that utilizes consensus in the regulation standards of newly emerging services.

    Desertification Control Practices in China

    Peer-reviewed publication
    Diciembre, 2019
    China

    Desertification is a form of land degradation principally in semi-arid and arid areas influenced by climatic and human factors. As a country plagued by extensive sandy desertification and frequent sandstorms and dust storms, China has been trying to find ways to achieve the sustainable management of desertified lands. This paper reviewed the impact of climate change and anthropogenic activities on desertified areas, and the effort, outcome, and lessons learned from desertification control in China.

    Renewable Energy and Land Use in India: A Vision to Facilitate Sustainable Development

    Peer-reviewed publication
    Diciembre, 2019
    India

    India has committed to reduce emissions with a goal to increase renewable energy production to 175 gigawatts (GW) by 2022. Achieving this objective will involve rapidly increasing the deployment of solar and wind energy, while at the same time addressing the related challenges of the financing requirements, environment impacts, and power grid integration. Developing energy on lands degraded by human activities rather than placing new infrastructure within natural habitats or areas of high production agriculture would reduce cumulative impacts and minimize land use conflicts.
