Title Analysis and Impact Assessment in Sustainable Industrial and Infrastructural Development Projects
Year 2018
Published
Abstract It is generally understood that large human development activities have impact on the natural ecosystems. Such impact can in many cases lead to negative environmental and climate consequences. This paper gives an overview of ecosystem impact combined with circular economy in an industrial perspective and the importance of keeping the diversity in nature in future industrial development. It includes a Norwegian industrial example with proof of practice of how small adjustments can reduce negative impact on environment in industrial and infrastructural development projects. Consequence analysis will shed light on various impacts. When unfortunate or risky consequences have surfaced through systematic analyses, it may be easy to pay immediate attention to ecosystems. Minor measures can reduce both short term and long-term negative effects on the ecosystem. We can observe that the importance of environmental issues today is very seriously treated both by United Nations (UN) and by the world countries in the Paris Agreement.
