This research proposal explores the link between public perceptions of nuclear power, how those perceptions are formed, and what influence those opinions have on energy policy. These issues are important in light of two realities. First, nuclear energy is declining in its share of global energy. Second, nuclear energy offers what might well be the best solution to climate change. Given the threat posed by climate change, it makes sense that nuclear power would be increasing in share, not decreasing. This esearch proposal seeks to look at some of the issues facing nuclear power, and how it can overcome these issues to increase share going forward. The research will utilize meta-analysis technique to examine the…...

Environmental and social sustainability is a relatively new field that has gained huge attention in the recent past following the increased concerns on sustainable development because of the devastating impacts of industrial processes on the environment. This paper examines this field as an area of interest to me, especially with regards to helping human systems i.e. organizations to protect the environment and ensure social development. This reflection begins with an evaluation of different definitions of environmental and social sustainability, which culminate in the development of an operational definition of this field. The article also incorporates an evaluation of individual steps taken to refine personal vision as an internal practitioner in this field. The other important components discussed in the paper include personal vision and mission statement for working in this field, strategic plan, professional growth, personal role in the field, and the relevance of environmental and social sustainability relative to…...

Environmental and Social Sustainability Field
The field of environmental and social sustainability is relatively new and has largely been driven by recent concerns regarding environmental protection and sustainability. Given the nature of its focus, the profession is related to various disciplines in sciences, social sciences, and humanities. As a result of relation to different disciplines, there are numerous job opportunities in the environmental and social sustainability field. The diverse nature of this field has partly contributed to the lack of a single definition that effectively defines profession. Therefore, success in this field requires identifying its operational definition as well as developing a plan for professional development. This paper focuses on a professional development plan for a career in this field and incorporates an operational definition, employment outlook, professional mission and vision statement, and professional goals.

Career Progression in Environmental and Social Sustainability
Environmental and social sustainability is a relatively new field that has numerous opportunities for professional growth and career progression. These opportunities are attributable to the fact that this field has diverse areas of competence including humanities, science, and social sciences. However, similar to nearly every other profession, career progression in environmental and social sustainability begins from junior to senior levels. This process of career progression is largely common among internal practitioners in this field who handle various environmental protection, economic development, and social sustainability issues on a daily basis.

Upon graduation from college, the entry level in the field of environmental and social sustainability is junior level. This level involves transitioning from the learning environment to real world situations based on knowledge and skills obtained from relevant courses. During this stage, the internal practitioner basically focuses on translating knowledge into real world application. The academic…...

Social entrepreneurship was introduced in the 1970s to address the issue of social sustainably and the term "social entrepreneur." This analysis will begin by providing a brief history as well as a working definition for the concept of social entrepreneurialism. It will also discuss some of the related movements that have been working towards some of the same goals, albeit, from different directions to address various challenges in society and the environment. Furthermore, a more detailed overview of the exact challenges that are present in society that social entrepreneurialism can work to address will be outlined that include environmental problems and…...

Overcrowding in Megacities Cities are increasingly getting larger, which results in the increased emergence of megacities worldwide. Megacities are increasingly emerging in developing nations due to mass urbanization. One of the major contributors to the rise of megacities worldwide is globalization and rapid technological advancements. By increasing connectivity, globalization has contributed to mass urbanization as people look for better environments for their socioeconomic growth and development. Globalization has transformed the nature of urbanization by making people’s movement to become global rather than intra-national rural-urban migration. According to Heyzer et al. (2016) the rise of megacities worldwide is an indicator that humankind is experiencing the highest ever growth in urbanization. While the rise of megacities is associated with some positive impacts relating to economic growth and development, these cities face some challenges due to overcrowding. This paper examines the social and environmental challenges facing megacities due to overcrowding.

Sustainability in Pharmaceutical Pricing
How Can Pharmaceutical Public-Private Partnerships Help to Achieve the Dissemination of affordable medicines - The Case of Anti Malaria Drugs in Nigeria?

Sustainability Perspective

Many individuals from developing countries who could benefit from pharmaceuticals products do not receive them due to high costs. Antiretroviral therapy's failure in reaching more than scant numbers of individuals in developing nations, suffering from AIDS, has drawn extensive publicity. However, even far cheaper medications that can be delivered easily aren't reaching numerous individuals who require them. Over a fourth of children all over the world and more than half of the children in a few nations do not receive vaccines, which come under the World Health Organization's (WHO's) Expanded Program on Immunization. Even though these vaccines only cost a family under a dollar a dose, they still cannot afford the medicine. The lack of access to beneficial pharmaceutical products and the inability of these…...
