Sustainable Development And Farming

Sustainable Development And Economics

The concept of sustainable development covers meeting economic, environmental and social needs of everyone without hurting anyone or anything in the process. The concept would attempt to make sure that all people have enough to eat no matter what their income is. Whether you are well off or live in absolute or relative poverty, you would legally have the right and the ability to purchase foods to provide you and your family with an adequate number of calories each day to maintain health.

All people in the workforce have a right to economic growth without undermining the environment, natural resources and the incomes of the next and future generations. Safeguards are put in place by the world government so that labor standards are put into effect along with mechanisms for compliance internationally. People that work with hazardous materials have rules to follow to keep themselves and the environment safe. People that work in high places must use safety equipment to ensure they don’t slip and fall. Accidents do happen; however, many times accidents are related to human error when the rules of safety are not followed correctly.

Sustainable Development And Food Service

Domestic foods are regulated by the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN); it also regulates foods that are imported at the point where they were received into the US. The US Department of Agriculture and the FDA require that workers in the food service industry have people in place to educate and train all food handlers how to prevent food-born illnesses though applied safety measures.

What is sustainable development related to preventing food-born illnesses in the food industry? Foods meant to be served cold must sit in ice when left in the open. Staff is responsible for recording the temperature of food, and if the temperature falls below the safe zone it must be discarded at once. All foods left out in the open for the public to serve themselves, such as in a salad bar or a buffet must have a shield between the food and the customers that serve themselves. This shield is to prevent contamination from people breathing, sneezing or coughing.

Sustainable Development And Farming

Sustainable farming does not use practices such as giving antibiotics or hormones, and once processed, the meat cannot be irradiated. In factory farming animals are almost driven insane with fear and cramped conditions, but in sustainable farming the animals are treated humanely. What is sustainable development? It is all the things mentioned above and so much more.

7. Development trend of environmental pollution

Air pollution: energy resource structure based on coal-fired induces serious acid rain pollution; Smoke, dust, vehicle exhaust pollution and 4 sandstorms source areas in the northern part of the country induce dust pollution, leading to air pollution situation very serious.

Water pollution: mainly from discharge of industrial wastewater, the contradiction between prevention and cure of water pollution and industrial development is outstanding. It is difficult to fundamentally solve the lag case of pollution control.

Others: Urban industrial waste and garbage pollution, industrial noise, and noise pollution of building operations are also serious.

8. Environmental protection is brought into the plan of national economy and social development

Develop land development and rehabilitation, and strengthen to prevent and reduce natural disasters

Carry out birth control, and take efforts to reduce population pressures on the environment

Implement the policy of energy development and saving, and develop controlling total discharge of pollutants

Practice cleaner production and prevention and cure of industrial pollution

Protect and improve the environment, and change consumer attitudes in the process of urbanization

Set up environmental protection strategy considering rational use of natural resources as the core.
