Year 2015
Published
Abstract The importance of adopting sustainable development is facing many challenges that affect political decisions and social changes. Many countries are facing the conflict between the development of businesses and economic growth and saving the environment. Unfortunately, sometimes people choose to neglect the environment and consequently harm themselves in an indirect way. Some countries take certain measures to fight pollution and global warming and to achieve sustainable development. Such measures can be seen in their policies. For example, Switzerland, Sweden, and Japan have imposed environmental policies that target better resource management. This chapter discusses the cases of the successful resource management systems making them a role model for other countries to target achieving sustainable development.
