Editorial : New York : Columbia University Press Data de publicació : 2015 Nombre de pàgines : xvi, 543 p. ll. : il., col., mapes Dimensions : 23 cm ISBN/ISSN/DL : 978-0-231-17314-8 Idioma : Anglès (eng) Matèries : Desenvolupament sostenible Classificació : 034 Desenvolupament de l'economia Resum : Jeffrey D. Sachs is one of the world's most perceptive and original analysts of global development. In this major new work he presents a compelling and practical framework for how global citizens can use a holistic way forward to address the seemingly intractable worldwide problems of persistent extreme poverty, environmental degradation, and political-economic injustice: sustainable development. Sachs offers readers, students, activists, environmentalists, and policy makers the tools, metrics, and practical pathways they need to achieve Sustainable Development Goals. Far more than a rhetorical exercise, this book is designed to inform, inspire, and spur action. Based on Sachs's twelve years as director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University, his thirteen years advising the United Nations secretary-general on the Millennium Development Goals, and his recent presentation of these ideas in a popular online course, The Age of Sustainable Development is a landmark publication and clarion call for all who care about our planet and global justice.

Públic ISBD Títol : Principles of sustainable finance Tipus de document : text imprès Autors : Dirk Schoenmaker ; Willem Schramade Menció d'edició : First Edition Editorial : Oxford : Oxford University Press Data de publicació : 2019 Nombre de pàgines : xxv, 394 p ll. : il. Dimensions : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/DL : 978-0-19-882660-6 Idioma : Anglès (eng) Matèries : Desenvolupament sostenible Classificació : 034 Desenvolupament de l'economia Resum : Finance is widely seen as an obstacle to a better world. Principles of Sustainable Finance explains how the financial sector can be mobilized to counter this. Using finance as a means to achieve social goals we can divert the planet and its economy from its current path to a world that is sustainable for all. Written for undergraduate, graduate, and executive students of finance, economics, business, and sustainability, this textbook combines theory, empirical data, and policy to explain the sustainability challenges for corporate investment. It shows how finance can steer funding to certain companies and projects without sacrificing return and thus speed up the transition to a sustainable economy. It analyses the Sustainable Development Goals as a strategy for a better world and provides evidence that environmental, social, and governance factors matter, explaining in detail how to incorporate these factors in the corporate and financial sectors. Tailored for students, Principles of Sustainable Finance starts each chapter with an overview and learning objectives to support study. It includes suggestions for further reading, lists and definitions of key concepts, and extensive uses of figures, boxes, and tables to enhance educational goals and clarify concepts. Principles of Sustainable Finance is also supported by an online resource that includes teaching materials and cases.
