Environmental Issues In Order Research Articles

Gobernanza ambiental, agua, saneamiento y residuos sólidos: ¿qué piensa al respecto la población costarricense?

[Objective] The objective of this study was to collect the perception of Costa Ricans on environmental issues in order to generate information to influence decision-makers. [Methodology] A descriptive-quantitative research was conducted from June 13th to 17th and June 20th, 22nd, and 23rd, 2022 through a telephone poll of 702 people, using a sampling of active cellphone banks in the country. [Results] Opinion polls provide elements of the population's sentiments and help measure actions developed in different areas; therefore, this study is relevant to show what the population thinks about environmental matters. For example, six out of ten people consider that the country's international prestige on environmental matters is an accurate representation of reality, but it is evident that 67.8% of the people polled think the government is not clear on environmental policies. However, the government must address 11 environmental issues as a priority. Furthermore, interviewees agree with the statements in the Escazú Agreement, as an instrument of international regulations regarding the right to citizen participation and information on environmental issues. On another issue, seven out of ten people indicate that the country's wastewater is dumped into the rivers, thus contaminating water sources. Regarding solid waste management, little progress is perceived regarding solutions to this problem. [Conclusions] Finally, there is evidence of knowledge about environmental issues and an expectation for the government to solve the problems identified as priorities.

Navigating the Wicked Policy Problem: An In-Depth Analysis of Policy Dilemmas and Innovative Approaches for Effective Problem Solving

The UN established the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to address a variety of social, economic, and environmental issues in order to ensure a more equitable future for all. These issues are to be addressed through policy and various relevant programs. However, some policy problems are hardly fixed despite the fact that many public policies are ostensibly being developed to address them. Wicked problems keep on piling up. Policy issues such as road safety, corruption, poverty and inequality, unemployment, land disputes, environmental degradation, gender equality, and so on have drawn a growing number of policies in an effort to address them, but these issues are recognized as being essentially amorphous and stubborn, hence creating policy dilemmas. This article offers a greater grasp of the alternatives for fixing wicked problems. It considers policy networks, policy entrepreneurship, collaborative governance, data-driven decision-making, policy diffusion, decentralization, and strategic placement of street-level bureaucrats as key strategies for tackling complex policy issues. This article makes the case that an integrated policy package is best suited to address wicked policy issues. This implies that addressing wicked problems requires a multifaceted and adaptive approach, as no single problem-solving technique can consistently and reliably provide a wide-ranging result.

The green mindset: how consumers’ attitudes, intentions, and concerns shape their purchase decisions

Purpose. The goal of the present investigation is to find out what effect environmental concern has as a moderator between green brand positioning, green brand knowledge, social value, and perspective on the green brand among young consumers. Design/methodology/approach. Information was gathered from 407 Bangladeshi university students, both public and private. The suggested model was evaluated with the assistance of SPSS version AMOS-24, using the Structural equation Modeling (SEM) method. Findings. According to the standardized path coefficients of the SEM, the findings suggest that environmental concerns have a great deal to do with young people’s green purchasing intentions. According to the results, ‘green brand positioning’ (GBP) and ‘green brand knowledge’ (GBK), directly and indirectly via ‘Attitude towards Green Brand’ (ATGB) affect ‘Green Purchasing Intention’ (GPI). But ‘social value’ (SV) and ATGB are indirectly important factors in determining intent to buy environmentally friendly products and have no direct effect on GPI. Here, as a moderator, ‘environmental concern’ (EC) plays a vital role. Practical implications. These insights may help companies better comprehend how customers view environmentally responsible products as well as what factors influence their purchase decisions. Additionally, it is essential for businesses to appreciate the significance of educating people about environmental issues in order to increase consumer awareness and encourage more sustainable consumption habits. Originality and value. The study’s findings might be quite instructive to firms and businesses and motivate young people to make environmentally friendly purchases. One of the first studies of its kind, its findings are extremely valuable for companies seeking to understand their customers’ perspectives on green brands because they may shed light on how environmental concerns can moderate consumer behavior when it comes to purchasing environmentally friendly products.

Foreign Aids and Sustainable Development in Nigeria: An Application of Dynamic Least Squares Approach

The impact of foreign aid in donor and recipient countries is largely unsettled amongst existing studies, as well as, literature. This is attributed to the various arguments for and against the benefits of foreign aid, as it relates to sustainable development. As such, the study examined the effect of foreign aids on sustainable development in Nigeria from 1986-2021. The study used Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) unit root test, Johansen Co-integration test, Dynamic Least Squares (DOLS) and Granger Causality test. The ADF result showed that sustainable development, foreign aids, exchange rate, inflation rate and trade openness were stationary at first level difference. Also Johansen co-integration test confirmed a long-run relationship between the variables. The DOLS result revealed that, foreign aid, exchange rate and trade openness were significant with each exhibiting a direct link with sustainable development at 5%; while, that of foreign aid was at 10%. This suggests that inflow of foreign aids in different forms is essential for resource conservation. Also, inflation rate showed an inverse and significant link with sustainable development at 5%. In addition, a bi-directional causality was established between foreign aid and sustainable development. The study concluded that foreign aids in different forms, exchange rates stability and high exportation that comply with environmental sustainability boost Nigeria's sustainable development growth, but spiral inflation worsens it. Thus, it is advised that government should declare an emergency over environmental issues in order to guarantee an increase in the flow of foreign aid into environmental sustainability.

Assessment of air quality index in Annaba

In recent years, the world has been witnessing serious ecological imbalances due to the catastrophic situation and the damage caused to the environment. Human activities as waste disposal, cement units, smelting, chemical industries etc., are the main causes of pollution. Air pollution directly affects the human living standards, pollutants requires regular control in view of their direct impact on health, such as nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide, ozone, and particulate matter. Algeria adopts international standards to monitor the levels of pollution recorded in Algerian cities and compare them with global levels. Thus, the object of this study was the air quality index (AQI) in Annaba (Northeastern of Algeria). This study aimed to evaluate AQI in Annaba. In this context, quantitative estimates of polluted waste resulting from some industrial activities have been conducted in order to determine the degree of its danger and the extent of its contribution to the deterioration of the air quality. The monitoring of pollutants allowed to identify the benefits of comprehensive environmental assessment. The air quality index was determined using various pollutants parameters (dust, ozone, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide). A ten-point scale ranking of the overall air quality index of pollution accepted in Algeria allows making the differentiated assessment of negative impacts of existing industrial agglomerations on the environment. However, the analysis performed on samples DC1 and DC2 with SEM (TESCAN model VEGA II) and BSE detector (Backscattered Electrons) shows that the particles sizes are estimated to range from hundreds of microns to a few microns, a different morphology and irregular shape. Our results will enable policy makers to appropriate measures to be taken, and which are based mainly on sensitizing economic operators to environmental issues in order to adopt an environmentally friendly industrial system.

Material balance principle to estimate eco-efficiency of saffron-producers aiming reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in Iran

Introduction: During the last decades, environmental pollution has been considered one of the challenges of the agricultural sector, which has affected the relationship between the ecological and economic performance of agricultural products.Methods: In this study, the DEA-MBP approach based on the SBM model has been used to investigate the eco-efficiency of saffron farms in Iran. The main purpose of this approach is to decrease GHG emissions by mitigating the use of highly polluting production inputs.Results: The results showed that the average eco-efficiency is estimated at 74% and is 12% lower than technical efficiency without considering environmental issues. Therefore, saffron producers are 26% far from full efficiency, and they must change their consumption of inputs and production of inputs according to environmental issues in order to achieve it. Excessive use of diesel fuel and fungicides is cause of GHG emissions in these farms.Discussion: The use of sustainable and ecological cultivation methods in farms in order to reduce the consumption of chemical fertilizers and fungicides should be considered. Replacing old machinery and repairing them can also considerably reduce fuel consumption and GHG emissions.

Analysing climate change in the coastal zone: the case of Kepulauan Riau, Indonesia

Unsustainable development is our species’ biggest threat to private and public values. The coastal zone most affected by climate change and public value (PV) should be actively engaged with the environmental issues because ecology has provided the most fundamental criticism of PV. However, we still don’t fully comprehend how public value is considered while managing climate change in Kepulauan Riau, Indonesia. This paper challenges Moore’s strategic triangle as a framework for coordinating the process in producing public value, namely: the definition of public value; the authorising environment, and; organizational capacity. The purpose of the paper is to explore the public value considered in reducing the impact of climate change. We identified Moore’s strategic triangle using desk research and secondary sources. Results support the assertion that public value is not created by the public sector alone but also recognized by other sources. This study suggests that government develop and strengthen institutions to handle contemporary environmental issues in order to organize climate change. Lack of ecological literacy can have ramifications for organizational capability.

The Linkages Between Urban Green Spaces and Residents’ Wellbeing: A Conceptual Framework

Sustainable development has been one of the biggest challenges the world has ever faced in recent decades. The term sustainable development is a dynamic process which brings together global and local concerns while linking social, economic, and environmental issues in order to resolve the needs of both current and future generations. It is therefore important to achieve sustainable development as urban residents' wellbeing, meaning their health, sense of security, freedom and social relations with others are heavily dependent upon it. In the modern era, sustainable development has become even more challenging because the nature of urban development which is often intertwined with urban issues such as urban sprawl, immigration, city planning. Similarly in Malaysia, the rapid urbanisation, transformation and expansion of urban cities has pushed the country towards the need for urban sustainability. Nonetheless, the destruction of natural green spaces, noise and overcrowding is one of the negative implications in compact cities that threatens urban residents’ wellbeing. This is worrisome because the urban green spaces are essential in promoting social interaction, health and wellbeing. Therefore, urban green spaces are among the most important sustainable urban development elements to integrate in residential development initiatives to achieve residents’ wellbeing. This paper provides insight into the function of spatial values of these urban green spaces in explaining residents' wellbeing. In this paper, there are three dimensions namely urban green spatial characteristics, urban green spatial value, and residents' wellbeing. This paper posits that favourable urban green spatial characteristics improves the perceptions of urban green spatial values, and consequently promotes residents' sense of wellbeing.

Tax Policy to Accelerate EV Infrastructure and Reducing National Carbon towards Net Zero Emission

More advanced technology in its development certainly leads to environmental issues in order to have an impact on a better environment and prevent global warming in the future. One of the technologies used is the shift of the use of fuel-based vehicles to battery-based electric vehicles. In its application and towards Indonesia Net Zero Emission in 2060, several challenges in the development of the Electric Vehicle ecosystem are still occurring, trying to look at other countries that have used electric vehicles more advanced, policies are very important in the success of the technological transition to environmentally friendly technology and prevent Global Warming. From a Tax Revenue sectors, Government could managed to increased or adjust the Carbon Tax for Industry which considered to be still very insufficient compared to other countries.

Islam and Ecological Sustainability: An Exploration into Prophet’s Perspective on Environment

The Quran— which is considered as the most sacred Islamic Scripture, the Word of Allah was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) via the Archangel Gabriel over 1400 years ago—and the Hadith— The Prophet Muhammad's (peace and blessings be upon him) cherished traditions, sayings, and affirmations in respect to religious issues embody Islam's perspective on the cosmos and the Divine, as well as humanity's relationship with both. When Allah constructed it, every detail was carefully thought out. These supernatural techniques guarantee the existence and protection of natural resources. Islam's environmental teachings are based on the fundamental understanding of how interconnected humans and all other living things are with the rest of the earth. Additionally, our survival and the survival of future generations depend on this information. Because caring for the world also includes caring for our own needs. Islam, is often referred to as a religion which unlike any other dictates it’s followers as to how they are supposed to be leading their life. It not only lays down religious perspectives about what is to be followed in a good and bad sense (i.e. to say the concept of Haraam and Halaal) but also brings about guidelines for the minutest of details of everyday life. According to Islam, protecting the environment is the only way to maintain the delicate balance of life. The Quranic teaching that humanity has been given guardianship over nature is supported by the most well-known Hadith on environmental issues, which states that, "The earth is green and beautiful, and Allah has appointed you his stewards over it."
 Although in the recent times the environmental crisis in Muslim nations has recently worsened due to a complicated web of issues, including globalization, economic competition, and political conflicts among the economically dominant states. In order to avert the destruction, a number of Islamic academicians and experts stressed the importance of reconsidering and going back to the Islamic environmental teachings. On the other side, many intellectuals have denounced Islamic beliefs as wholly ethical and unscientific without fully examining its discourses and detailed sermons. Since this has been emphasised as a key element of Islam as a religion and way of life, the mere fact that Islamic beliefs place weight on the individual's obligation to preserve the ecosystem needs to be thoroughly investigated. This paper highlights how the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established by the United Nations in 2015 for environmental conservation stand aligned with lslam's strong commitment to protecting the environment and these traditions of the Prophet Muhammad's environmental practices which were practiced years ago. Environmental ethics and practices may be enhanced by focusing on the Islamic perspective on contemporary environmental concerns (such as resource depletion, pollution, and poverty). This study aims to stimulate the teachings of Islam on environmental issues in order to advance the role of religious and scientific organisations in environmental protection. providing appropriate responses. Several environmental challenges are discussed in this article from an Islamic viewpoint.

Understanding the Barriers Againts Eco-Friendly Behavior

Over the past two decades, increased media coverage – coupled with economic incentives has substantially raised citizens’ awareness and concern about environmental sustainability, but has typically failed to induce persistent behavioral changes. The ineffectiveness may due to the fact that all this time the discussions and efforts to tackle environmental problems, research conducted, and policies made by the government are always based on non – psychological perspective, such as legal studies, economic, and policy maker perspective. Effort from psychological perspective is relatively not easy to find whereas acting sustainably itself is actually a form of behavior. Hence, this study attempt to understand the gap between awareness of environmental sustainability and individual’s actual behavior from a psychological perspective. The primary objective is to identify the barriers for individuals in implementing eco-friendly behavior. The data was obtained by using descriptive research method through semi-structured interview, non-participant observation combined with social experiment. As many as 32 respondents participated and chosen through incidental sampling technique. The research started by showing seven images that reflected environmental issues in order to do the mapping on participants’ stage of knowledge. the results showed that there is clear evidence on “awareness -behavior” gap while barriers to act environmentally such as: laziness, underestimate their behavior toward the environment, feeling powerless to do some changes, absence of reward and punishment.

WHICH SCENARIOS REFLECT INNOVATION AT THE BRAZILIAN UNIVERSITY?

Innovation is the result of complex, dynamic relationships. As Science and Technology Institutions in universities are part of the National Innovation System, generating knowledge through Teaching, Research, and Extension and Innovation, our aim is to present the current innovation scenarios in the Brazilian university. Therefore, a qualitative/descriptive study is conducted after a literature review and analysis of documents of public domain. Considering the university hybridism and a timid emergence of new helices contemplating community and environmental sustainability, the findings show that there is a need for increasing approximation between university, companies, governments, communities and environmental issues in order to transfer research, development, innovation and technology to the productive sector and to a sustainable life.

THE RIGHT TO A BALANCED AND HEALTHFUL ECOLOGY IN THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK OF THE EUROPEAN CONVENTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS AND CASE LAW OF THE ECtHR

Objective:The author seeks to understand the content and legal guarantees of the right to sustainable, healthy and favorable environment in the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights. The researcher seeks to list the case law of the ECtHR corresponding to environmental issues in order to define concrete aspects related to responsibility of the States for the climate change and global warming. The author analyzes new legal trends on the protection of the rights of individuals and groups to complain for violations of their rights to a healthy and favorable environment in the light of the European Convention on Human Rights. The article is focused on positive state obligations on a healthy and sustainable environment under the Convention provisions, Russian experience in eco-cases, admissibility criteria for complaints to the European Court of Human Rights in “environmental cases”. The writer gives an overview of the ECtHR’s legal positions on the right to a healthy and favorable (i.e. prosperous, clean, safe, quiet, calm, quality) environment by type of its pollution. The author considers the importance of facilitating the right to healthy environment according to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.Methodology: The research uses general scientific and special cognitive techniques wherein legal analysis and synthesis, systemic, formal-legal, comparative-legal, historical-legal and dialectical methods are applied. The author applied a case study method to select the most recent and pilot cases of the ECtHR practice.Results: The author founds out that despite the fact of a non-exhaustive list of the legal positions of the ECtHR concerning the environment effect on human life and health, there is a certain trend in Council of Europe towards an extended interpretation of the human right to healthy ecological situation responding to new challenges to the realization that right, such as, the decarbonization of industrial processes, right to light, right to fresh air, clean water and clean atmosphere, etc. The study concludes with an idea that right to sustainable, healthy and favorable right is a collective right. From the practical perspective, potentially group of individuals should complain to the international judicial institutions to the violation of this right. The importance of the protection of that right is increasing within the technological progress. The right to healthy environment imposes to the European States a legal obligation to ensure right to life, prohibition of torture, right to privacy, right to a fair trial, right to an effective remedy and prohibition of discrimination. The researcher also point out that cases of environmental rights violations are complicated in terms of preparing a complaint and processing by the ECtHR. Due to this fact, it is hard to do so with regard to the causal link between the acts (omission) of state agencies, the violation of environmental rights and the consequences that occurred. It is not clear from the text of the Convention which article directly should be applied.Contributions: Following a review of the content, the author raised possible problems, strategies, suggestions and guidelines for the protection of the right to sustainable and healthy environment. The author concluded that near future new categories of legal cases related to the state responsibility for global warming and climate change will appear in international and national judicial system. The author encourages the complement to the international legal regulation of the protection of the right to healthy, sustainable and favorable ecology on universal and regional level.

מדע וערכים – הבסיס למדיניות סיכונים לאומית באיכות הסביבה ובבריאות הציבור <br>Science and Values – the base for national risk policy in Environmental protection and Public health

תקציר בעברית: משבר הקורונה שנכנס לחיינו ומצריך החלטות מדיניות קשות תוך כדי תנועה, מתרחש בקצב מסחרר שאינו מאפשר מבט תאורטי ודיון ציבורי סדור. כשייגמר המשבר, אפשר וצריך להסתמך גם על הניסיון בנושאי סביבה כדי לגבש מדיניות ניהול סיכונים לאומית בנושאי איכות הסביבה ובריאות הציבור שתסתמך על מדע וערכים. בצד המדעי יש צורך למפות את הסיכונים בתחומים אלה, להשלים פערי ידע בהם, ליצור בסיסי נתונים שיתמכו בקבלת ההחלטות וליצור מערכת של מודלים לאומיים מתעדכנים. בצד הערכי יש צורך לקיים דיון ציבורי דמוקרטי, משתף ומעמיק על מדיניות הסיכונים הלאומית, ולהחליט כמה בטוחים הדברים צריכים להיות כדי שיהיו בטוחים דיים. English Abstract: The Corona crisis that came into our lives requires rapid on-the-go policy decisions. When the crisis is over, it is possible and necessary to rely on experience in environmental issues in order to formulate a national risk management policy on environmental protection and public health that will rely on science and values. On the scientific side, it is necessary to map the risks in these areas, to bridge knowledge gaps, to create databases that will support decision-making and to create a system of updating national models. On the value side, there is a need for a democratic, participatory and in-depth public deliberation on national risk policy, and to decide how safe is safe enough.

Green Supplier Selection via an Integrated Multi-Attribute Decision Making Approach

The environmental awareness of society and the global competition market has increased significantly due to the environmental problems that happen today. Companies have recognized the importance of focusing on environmental issues in order to be strong in a modern competitive business environment. Therefore, environmental factors are taken into consideration during the supplier selection process, which is an important decision point in the supply chain. In this study, two robust multi-attribute decision making techniques, Intuitionistic Fuzzy AHP (IF-AHP) and PROMETHEE, are used in an integrated way to better handle this selection problem. The steps are clearly explained in the proposed methodology. First, the relative weights of the criteria are determined by IF-AHP, which allows decision makers (DMs) to deal with the uncertainty of the evaluation process. Subsequently, the weights of criteria obtained are used in the PROMETHEE method for the best ranking of alternative suppliers. An application is performed in the air filtration industry to demonstrate the validity of the proposed method.

Environmental Management of Gabriel Correia Pedrosa Children's School in Manaus - Amazonas, an Application of Environmental Education

The implementation of Environmental Management in elementary schools encourages the development and sharing of correct environmental solutions, cost reduction and resource optimization, conservation of school physical spaces and commitment to the management process. In this context, it is proposed to apply an Environmental Environmental Management Plan at Gabriel Correia Pedrosa Nursery, located in the Compensa II neighborhood, Manaus-AM, seeking to identify as environmental activities. An exploratory research was used to define the problem with greater precision, to identify methods of action or to obtain additional data, having as pedagogical objectives the introduction of paradigm changes that lead the individuals of Education to be inserted in democratic processes of transformation of the problem. human-nature relationship. An analysis of the data allowed the elaboration of methods of implementation of the Gabriel Correia Pedrosa Nursery PGAE model guided by the following steps: an environmental perception through the early diagnosis of activities and a thematic methodology of the nursery EA. Thus, the nursery develops activities to finalize the student on environmental issues in order to raise awareness - and use a multiplying agent, carried out in 2019, as the following activities: activities and studies with plants and flowers for cultivation and irrigation; interaction with soil, without working the nursery garden; implementation of fruit trees for children and environmental educational tours. The Nursery seeks to implement the highest level of GEA, going from 5R to a change, reinventing a way of life, being described by 7R.

CONSUMERS’ WILLINGNESS TO PAY (WTP) OF SPECIAL TAX FOR NON-GREEN VEHICLES TOWARDS ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE IN MALAYSIA

The use of the green concept in the automotive industry as an energy-efficient transport innovation is still regarded as a new technology in Malaysia. It also has the potential to alleviate environmental issues in order to improve environmental performance in the automotive industry context. As such, the significance of green technology has become a growing concern, especially among developing countries. The purpose of this study is to determine consumers’ willingness to pay for green vehicles towards solving environmental issues in Malaysia. In order to achieve this, the consumers’ willingness to pay (WTP) and their preferences were examined using the contingent valuation method (CVM) as found in previous studies. Data was gathered using survey questionnaires which were distributed among 445 Malaysians so as to know their preferences in terms of green vehicles and green practices. The data was analyzed using the Economic Valuation Method. The result shows that Malaysians are willing to pay the price increase in road tax by 6.49% maximum level for non-green vehicles as well as all control variables included in the doubled-bounded case. On the other hand, for a single-bounded case, the maximum value is 7.91% which is higher as respondents were given single WTP amount for acceptance compared to the double-bounded case when the initial WTP was followed by another different amount.

Cleaner production options for a small bakery

Abstract The implementing of a Cleaner Production program (CP) in the bakery and confectionery sector, allows the change of its industrial process through of the development of an eco-efficient system. The goals of this work were to generate CP options for a small bakery, to make the employees aware of environmental issues in order to better use raw materials and reduce waste generation, analyze the solid waste generated in the establishment, and provide a better management for a future implementation of the CP program. The methodology of implementation was based on the widespread for CNTL/SENAI, taking into account three stages with various tasks being developed in each of them. It was noted that the establishment did not have studied selective collecting or outside or inside the establishment. The results obtained were mainly good practices of CP in the manufacture of products, separation of recyclable waste from non-recyclable ones for commercialization and adequate disposal, purchase of raw materials with larger packages, and the adequacy of bread forms. Considering that the most significant generation of waste is organic, the composting was suggested as a way of recovering this waste.

ATRAINING PROPOSED PROGRAM FOR DEVELOPING DIMENSIONS OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY IN PUBLIC RELATIONS SECTOR OF FAYOUM GOVERNORATE

This current research drives at developing some dimensions of environmental responsibility in employees in the public relations sector in Fayoum governorate through holding a training program. Despite the multiply of laws and regulations addressing development and maintenance of the environment and to restrict negative environmental behaviors, environmental education is still the optimal proper solution for developing environmental responsibility; through which correct healthy behaviors can be produced that go in accordance with environment’s safety and preserve the environment. Environmental education is the key approach and motivator for forming attitudes and behavior of individuals towards the environment. Therefore, the developed states are much concerned with environmental education for its critical role in development. Public relation is a sector that has witnessed a great concern by states on all levels for the economic, social, and technological progress they witness that require existence of managements equipped with modern technology and human and materialistic means to deal with new changes and developments . Specialization and experience are critical elements for diffusing environmental awareness and environmental responsibility in addition to better performance and better communication. Since environment is critically important for human beings, there has been a necessity for conserving it and its natural resources through developing environmental responsibility among individuals. This concern in the environment could be translated through holding training programs and activities for focusing on value of the environment and solving its problems. Results of post-application indicate that there are significant statistical differences between average scores of the experimental group pre/post application of scale of environmental responsibility and its triple dimensions and the full score, in favor of the post application. The study recommends the necessity for focusing on using the training proposed program for developing environmental responsibility of employees in public relations sector and to concern with national and international environmental issues in order to achieve sustainable development in various media means.
