Living Tradition

The energy crisis and the damage to the natural environment encouraged public awareness for the preservation of nature in addition to pay more attention to the welfare of mankind. Sustainable development with architecture in it developed into an important issue in recent decades. Wisdom in the culture of the archipelago can be a role model in tackling the crisis. Badui community is a bit of a tribe that still retains its cultural traditions closely until now. The tradition of the Badui community living utmost respect and preservation of nature where they live. Using natural resources in a selective; appropriate technology; restrictions and strict rules generate a culture living in harmony with nature. A science that needs to be studied, imitated and developed to address modern challenges. This paper aims to assess the alignment of the Badui community living tradition with the characteristics of Sustainable Architecture.Krisis energi dan kerusakan lingkungan alam mendorong kesadaran masyarakat untuk lebih memperhatikan kelestarian alam disamping kesejahteraan umat manusia. Pembangunan berkelanjutan dengan arsitektur di dalamnya berkembang menjadi isu penting dalam beberapa dasawarsa terakhir. Kearifan dalam kebudayaan Nusantara dapat menjadi teladan dalam menanggulangi krisis tersebut. Masyarakat Badui merupakan sedikit dari suku yang masih mempertahankan tradisi kebudayaannya dengan ketat sampai saat ini.

Urban Management

Sustainable development is a new concept formed after the industrial revolution and the problems created concerning industrialization of cities and technological development of cities and linking different economic, cultural, political, and social development and exceptional attention to ecological considerations. Sustainable development has a comprehensive, integrated and human-oriented approach. It includes valuable concepts in preserving, promoting, and improving health and ecological integrity in the long term and providing human needs. Without destroying the next generation's ability and achieving economic dynamism, a livable environment and social equality are critical dimensions. The importance of conservation of natural resources in the urban environment is as significant as one of the essential areas of development of communities and, at the same time, a criterion for improving the quality of life. The consequences of urban development and the complexity of environmental problems have the inevitable existence of green spaces and their development. Due to the role of urban management in achieving sustainable urban development, this research tries to explain the concept of urban management, its objectives, and its components and provide effective urban management to achieve sustainable development. Eco-tourism is mainly based on resources that the natural environment is available to tourists that use it and appropriate conditions and requires protection of natural resources, which can be realized through evaluation of capability and capacity of the natural environment to attract tourists. The unique geography and diversity of natural phenomena caused Iran to be recognized as the fifth most crucial natural diversity globally, but planning for using these conditions is still not provided. In addition, the country's eco-tourism is faced with social, economic, and environmental problems, and for planning in the field of overcoming this challenge, we first need to recognize these challenges.

Abstract This article concentrates on the interconnected past, present and future of telecommunications and the environment in the Arctic. It brings together discussions on the natural environment, sustainable development and connectivity in and through the Arctic and focuses on fixed-line infrastructure. This study builds on the theoretical literature on infrastructure, infrastructuring and pipeline ecologies and demonstrates how the peculiar features of the Arctic, such as coldness, snow and ice, ground frost and permafrost affect telecommunication lines, and how this infrastructure impacts the environment in which it is built. Similarly, the environmental conditions, paired with long distances, small populations and limited economic opportunities, affect the infrastructuring processes and the selection of technologies, as well as their spatial extent, quality and the speed of their expansion. While the construction of telecommunication lines supports the exploitation of natural resources in and beyond the different parts of the circumpolar North, it also plays a role in the observation and protection of the Arctic.

In various sectors in Poland, aims of sustainable development are being implemented more or less successfully. It is necessary to apply the principles of sustainable development to the human behaviour and activity of business entities, because there are more and more activities particularly harmful to the natural environment. The implemented modern technologies aimed at the elimination of (or eliminating) the negative impact of human and business activities on the natural environment, are bringing the desired results as far as the protection of individual natural resources is concerned. Inability to define the economic value of the natural resources results in their constant, excessive exploitation and degradation. However, the growing awareness of the environmental issue in Poland is resulting in the application of technologies that protect individual natural resources. The paper attempts to determine the measures of sustainable development of construction sector in the scope of economic and environmental order, and to classify all of the economic sectors in Poland in accordance with the achieved level sustainability. For this purpose one has used the numerical taxonomy methods, and in particular the methods of linear ordering of objects (that involve projection of the objects from a multidimensional space of features onto a straight line), called the methods of multidimensional comparative analysis. The measures were designed based on available statistical data from 2012. The purpose of this article is comparison the construction sector to each other and to find out which sectors are similar to each other in terms of sustainability level, and to find sectors that have managed to achieve the best results in this regard.

And Function

The place and function of custom as a species of law—distinguished from custom as simply polite manners or cherished cultural traditions—has long been a source of research and debate among legal theorists and historians. One school of thought, reflecting the authority of written statute in modern jurisprudence, has relegated custom in a juridical sense to “primitive” societies, whereas proper law belongs to a world of state sovereignty. Other scholars have revisited the continuing validity of custom, including a trenchant body of work on the use (and manipulation) of custom in modern colonial regimes. At the same time, some have seen benefits in the acknowledgment of custom as a source of norms. A 2006 collection of articles, for instance, explored ways in which customary law might serve as a better foundation for the sustainable development of natural resources. As David Bederman has written, “Custom can be a signal strength for any legal system—preliterate or literate, primitive or modern.”

Conservation Of Natural Resources

The development of nautical tourism in the Primorsko-Goranska County is based on the region’s attractive natural resources (the indentedness of its coastline and islands, its favourable climate and fairly well-preserved natural environment), its developed infrastructure systems (with all their advantages and weaknesses), its vicinity to major markets, and as well as on the personal safety of boaters and the safety of navigation. Major weaknesses are reflected in the lack of tourist facilities and in the low level of the structure and quality of the offering of nautical tourism ports in comparison to boater expectations. Redressing these weaknesses will help future development converge with the desired goals. Based on an analysis of nautical tourism development, it is essential to set the guidelines of future development, taking into account the protection and conservation of natural resources and the application of the concept of sustainable development.

Ecological Problems

The population explosion has lead to a markedly increased exploitation of our natural environment, hence the expression „sustainable development“ has become a catch phrase. In a historical perspective ecological problems recently became acute and this is why it is necessary to act quickly. It is obvious that we have to pay extreme attention to how we treat our environment and our sources. This necessarily will be reflected in the actions of the lawmakers in the future, and for the building industry the results will be that the authorities will enforce new law and regulations with direct consequences for the choice of materials and building techniques. There will be developed a set of standards dealing with environmental matters, putting limitations especially on the consumption of natural resources. Some countries already has standards dealing with various ecological aspects, like recirculation, down cycling, etc. The customers will prefer building products and systems that can document compliance with environmental attitudes. For all activities the environmental burden will be evaluated and limited by laws and regulations. Consequently the industry’s accountability for the environment will be a prerequisite for remaining in business.

In this paper, the issue of the deliberate aging of products by manufacturers is discussed. Deliberate aging consists in intentionally planning or designing a product with an artificially limited lifetime in order to force consumers to replace it faster. The resulting rapid acceleration of the cycle of obtaining and utilizing consumer goods has serious consequences in the form of negative externalities. For this reason, the conscious aging of products is now recognized as the cause of unjustified consumption, generating huge economic and social costs and leading to the devastation of the natural environment and excessive exploitation of natural resources. Thus, it is in clear contradiction to the model of sustainable development. The aim of this paper was to identify the purchasing attitudes of buyers in the durable goods market. For its implementation, a pilot questionnaire study, which covered a representative group of 354 respondents, was carried out. The results indicate that the factors that influence the purchase of restitution goods depend on the type of product and the consumer’s income. At the same time, about two thirds of the respondents recognized the problem of the deliberate aging of products. In their opinion, the goods produced in the autarkic economy were more durable and their life cycle was much longer. The results obtained require further empirical verification carried out in comparative studies.

Natural resources are scarce and there is a need to explore new resources to meet the rising demand for energy. There is also a need to meet sustainable development goals through proper planning and strategy. Fossil fuel has a finite supply and there will be a huge gap between demand and supply due to rising demand. There is a need to develop biofuel to replace fossil fuel. This paper gives a discussion about current issues and future directions in these sectors.

The Subject

Earth science and geography are experiencing a new Renaissance, called environmentalism. It is due to the growing importance of threats for the global community because of the negative reaction of the natural environment to the growing workload. The purpose of this article is to show innovation and investment opportunities that must significantly change the attitude to geography and Earth sciences in general and identify opportunities for the formation and development of environmental geography by radically modernizing the approach, especially research methods, mainly through the latest geographical education, making it an urgent social need. The article summarizes the experience and results of the author and his colleagues’ work over two decades of research. Main material. Presentation of the basic content of the article is organized into 3 rubrics. The trends of conceptual changes are considered as an extension of traditional ecology to environmentology. There is a transformation of the subject - object dualism of classical ecology to the realization of complex interaction. It is generally the subject of environmentology. Only in this case, the consumer attitude to the natural environment transforms into the knowledge of natural systems as a stakeholder of mankind. This trend is due to the awareness of the importance of complex natural systems, arbitrarily called the natural environment, in relations with humanity. The relations have to become partnership ones, not aggressive ones. The science that deals closest with this problem is environmental geography. The importance of the territory as an integral resource of the society is stressed in the trends of sustainable development. It is considered not only as a necessary, though non-economic condition of existence, but as an economic object, that is natural capital. The latter requires a different attitude to itself than just the environment: inventory procedures (like other means of production), objective assessment, amortization, ever-increasing investment and economic transformation into the actual trend. Intangible natural resources -the prospect of environmental geography. In this case, natural environment of the external conditions of human existence will become an essential and indispensable part of the global and national wealth of countries. Natural-resource rents should become a way of filling the gross domestic product at different levels of the society’s structuring (environmental economy). Along with material and energy resources, the value of intangible natural resources and relevant environmental management is significantly increasing, which environmental geography also should deal with. Conclusions and prospects. 1. In fact, at present humanity is possessed by geographical problems of the environment. Determining the general trend of the world community development, they are at the core of sustainable development. At the same time, these problems are still being solved without the involvement of geographical science and geographical technologies. 2. In the context of the information era, when the problems of negative environmental changes become public and are regarded as the first threat to human existence, geography should become environmental geography. For this purpose, it must change people’s attitude to the natural environment, considering it to be an equitable subject of relations with humanity. 3. The approaches to the environment as natural capital, which provides significant economic surplus value and social value, are considered effective. Unfortunately, these qualities of nature have not received a value expression yet. They remain public resources, while they should be assets of the environmental economy. 4. The formation of these development trends is able to make environmental geography join the list of avant-garde sciences, providing the prospect of sustainable development of mankind.

The environment on earth as regulated in Law No. 32 of 2009concerning Environmental Protection and Management, thatenvironmental management consists of the natural environment inaccordance with the understanding of ecosystem life and socialenvironment that is illustrated by the existence of human groups both insociety and in families and refers to the understanding of humanity(humanism), so that includes understanding about between nations,interregion and the built environment (originally thought to be man-made;man-made environment).Development needs to pay attention to environmental conditionsthat exist from the physical side (soil, water, air), biotics (flora, fauna),and culture (culture, interactions between people). Environmental qualityconditions will tend to continue to decline if not balanced with the conceptof sustainable development planning in an effort to preserve the existingenvironmental functions.The implementation of environmentally sound development and thecontrolled use of natural resources wisely is the main objective ofenvironmental management. Sustainable development is very closelyrelated to environmental management programs and policies.The nature of environmental law enforcement in sustainabledevelopment covers all environmental law systems with the aim ofprotecting and properly managing the environment and is an activity toimplement and apply just environmental laws and take legal actionagainst any violations or deviations of law committed by legal subjectseither through judicial procedures or through non-judicial procedures.Legal norms are the most dominant rules that are enforced with powerand for their violations subject to certain sanctions that have beenestablished by the State.
