Analýza přínosů integrace systémů managementu kvality, environmentu a BOZP v organizaci DSP a.s. / The analysis of the benefits of integration of quality, environmental and health and safety management systems in DSP a.s. organization

Katzer, Jiří January 2009 (has links)
The topic of this thesis is the integration of quality, environmental and safety management systems and it's benefits. First the possibilities for integration are identified and then the benefits are demonstrated on the example of an existing integrated management system. The thesis includes recommendations for deeper integration and evaluates the effectivity of the organization's integrated management system.

Management podniku a životní prostředí / Business Management and Environment

Šťastný, Karel January 2015 (has links)
The main objective of this thesis is the analysis and comparison of environmental competitiveness between companies Unilever, Nestlé and Procter & Gamble. Companies are examined and evaluated in three areas: the internal environment of the company, the company microenvironment and the macroenvironment of the company. For each company is calculated and determinated environmental level, followed by comments and recommendations. A secondary goal of this thesis is the explanation of environmental protection and environmental management, including explanations of possible tools and standards (ISO 14001, EMAS). Relationship between environmental maturity and competitivness is evaluated at the end.

Projekty enviromentální výchovy v přípravné třídě / Projects of environmental education at a preliminary class

Malá, Jana January 2011 (has links)
of THESIS The aim of the thesis "Projects of environmental education at a preliminary class" is to point to more effective ways leading to better integration of children coming of socioculturally disadvantaging environment to an education process by means of environmental education projects. The theoretical part of this thesis, issuing from the expert literature, deals with upbringing and education of pupils at the preliminary class of the special primary school, with general rules of creating/carrying out projects. The applied part includes the concrete elaborated projects. The observation is focused on analysis of importance of concrete activities accomplished within the projects for asuccessful participation of the target group in the education process.

Selection for antibiotic resistance in the aquatic environment : novel assays to detect effect concentrations of micropollutants

Murray, Aimee Kaye January 2017 (has links)
The environment is increasingly recognised as a key player in the emergence and mobilisation of antibiotic resistance, which negatively impacts human health, healthcare systems, and farming practices worldwide. Recent work has demonstrated concentrations of antibiotics in the natural environment may select for resistance in situ, but a scarcity of meaningful data has prevented rigorous environmental risk assessment of antibiotics. Without such data, mitigation strategies, such as improved antibiotic stewardship or environmental discharge limits, cannot be effectively designed or implemented. This thesis designed and developed two methods for determining effect concentrations of antibiotics in complex microbial communities, thereby generating a significant amount of data to address this knowledge gap. Minimal selective concentrations (MSCs) were determined in long term selection experiments for four classes of antibiotic at concentrations as low as 0.4 μg/L, which is below many measured environmental concentrations. Lowest observed effect concentrations were determined using a short term, growth based assay which were highly predictive of MSCs. A novel finding was significant selection for cefotaxime resistance occurred at a wide range of antibiotic concentrations, from 125 μg/L - 64 mg/L, which has important clinical implications. Determination of MSC in single species assays was also shown to be a poor predictor of MSC in a complex microbial community. Co-selection for antimicrobial resistance was demonstrated in selection experiments and through improved understanding of class 1 integron evolution, assessing selective effects on resistance gene acquisition using a novel PCR method and next-generation sequencing. In the final study, a novel resistance determinant (UDP-galactose 4-epimerase) conferring cross-resistance to biocides and antibiotics was discovered, providing a target for further study. These findings indicate selection and co-selection for antimicrobial resistance is likely to occur in the environment, and provides the means to rapidly generate further data to aid in the development of appropriate mitigation strategies.

Decoupling Developmentalism-environmentalism: Human Nature Conceptualizations In Freshwater Ecosystems Management In Turkey

Ayas, Ceren 01 September 2009 (has links) (PDF)
Would it be possible to go one step further than proposing sustainable development as the ultimate answer where people live within nature harmoniously if natural resources were not managed by central authorities, who mostly are male, aged, middle-class bureaucrats? Bearing in mind that we have reached a stage where ecological credit crunch will define human&rsquo / s limits remarks for non-teleological and eco-friendly ways of conceptualizing the relationship between human beings and nature is explored with an emphasis of &lsquo / who&rsquo / that is local, female, young, social science-based, active in civil movement. The objective of conducting the research is to find out the ways why green approaches in social, political and economic spheres in Turkey are not integrated as a first step to decouple the antagonism in man&rsquo / s relationship with nature. The analysis tried to grasp the discrepancies of conceptualizing human-nature relationship in order to find out which segment of the society would be closer to adopt green values, with the intention of proposing them to be involved in a greater extent to decision-making mechanisms with regards to natural resources management, as well as an attempt to grasp the overall picture in understanding nature-human relationship in Turkey by focusing on wetland management based on the research conducted in Bafa Lake (Aydin), Uluabat Lake (Bursa), Salt Lake (Konya) and Egirdir Lake (Isparta). Thanks to the scale that is constructed by operationalizing the existing debates on environmental ethics, agents that would follow more ecologically sound discipline towards living harmoniously within nature is analysed.

The Environmental History Of Land And Water Usage In The Modernity Period Of Turkey

Koroglu, Nuri Tunga 01 April 2005 (has links) (PDF)
The thesis is an attempt to write the environmental history of the Modern Turkey from the second half of the 19th century to today. The central research focus and aim of the thesis is to explore the role of the modernity project at the transformation of the environment of Turkey during the republican period. For this, water and soil resources are taken to the core of the research, as both water and soil have the potential to highlight the transformative impacts of modernity project in most detail. Because of this, the conceptual framework of environmental history has been examined to outline its characteristics within the environmental sciences. Next, the development of the modern though has been scrutinized by the means of the transforming relation between human and nature, and through the development of human culture and society. For this, the shift from biological evolution to cultural evolution and its outcomes have been summarized. Finally, and the emerge of modernity and the development of the market society has been highlighted to define the relation between nature and human in according to the supply and demand relation in society. An institutional analysis is adopted to analyze the social, political and ideological forces that influenced the environmental impacts of the modernity project of Turkey. The impact of modernity project is analyzed through the relation between the increasing demand for natural resources, and the organization of supply processes within the modernization of Turkey.
