고용없는 성장이 이루어지고 있는 가운데 청년실업과 기후변화, 세계경제의 극심한 불안은 새로운 경제성장 패러다임을 요구하고 있다. 이에 세계 각국은 녹색성장을 신성장 동력으로 주목하고 있다. 우리나라는 저탄소 녹색성장을 목표로 녹색인재양성을 통한 국가경쟁력 확보와 청년실업해소 및 일자리 창출을 도모하고 있다. 본 논문은 AHP 방법론을 통하여 녹색인재양성을 위한 국가정책과제의 우선순위를 도출하여, 효율적인 투자와 인재양성계획을 수립하도록 돕는다.

As the global concerns focus on the sustainable growth, the green growth has been one of key words for the Korean government's policy trajectory. This study measures the green index for OECD countries in order to gauge and diagnose the current status of the green growth policy for Korea. The empirical results tell us that Korea's green index is relatively small and it needs to benchmark UK for improving her green policy. The contributions of the current study are to use a large set of data for green growth and to result in quantitative empirical results.

Environmental value is essential to the survival and development of humans. Environmental value and its importance are being emphasized, and related disputes are being expanded. The concept of green logistics is understood to be the same as that of the environment. As a way to preserve nature and engage in sustainable development, green logistics includes all logistical activities for protecting nature and minimizing or reducing behaviors that harm the environment for all processes, including using and reusing products and abolishing the search for resources by final users. All areas of human activity, such as the political, economic, social, and cultural sectors, strive to protect and preserve the environment and nature. In particular, the preservation of the environment shall be stressed in the economic activities that produce various products and expand the value added, and similarly for the social aspects. Green (environment) logistics aims to protect the environment and expand the prevention of environmental destruction and minimization on Earth. Some important cases and experiences that were introduced and applied in major countries are summarized. This research reviewed previous studies and the concepts of green logistics, including at ports, which represent a key sector of logistical activities. In this paper, air and water pollution at Incheon Port were investigated, and alternatives and system figures related to improving environmental logistics regarding three dimensions-country, company, and civil society-are recommended.

The construction industry has been a major player in Korean economy growth and it has been accountable for more than 15% of GDP during the last decade. However, fast-growing construction industry has also produced some unpleasant side-effects. Environmental problems are identified one of the main issues in the Korean construction industry and they are closely related to minimizing the carbon emission and delivering environmental-friendly green products. The movement of green construction, now, is considered the next driving force for the industry which has significant impacts on the future. This research investigates this green construction while focusing on governmental policy implications such as green certificate for construction products. Green building has long been recognized as the leading green construction product and the green trends have expanded to infrastructure construction such as road construction. Therefore, this research concentrates on various green road certification processes in the United States in order to develop a framework for Korean green road certification. In doing so, some of the green roads application has also been analyzed. This research intends to provide background information for Korean green construction policies, especially on green road certification.

녹색산업이 화두가 된 것은 어제 오늘의 일이 아니다. 다만 에너지를 많이 소비하는 대기업에서 실행하는 사업이라는 것이 지배적인 의견이었다. 하지만 이제는 중소규모의 사업장에서도 녹색바람이 불고 있다. 지식경제부, 환경부, 교육과학기술부를 비롯해 서울시에서도 다양한 녹색사업을 벌이고 있다. 인쇄와 관련된 녹색산업은 어떤 것이 있는지 알아본다.

The Korean construction industry has been implementing G-SEED, a certification system that evaluates the environmental properties of buildings for the purpose of reducing environmental burdens such as energy and resource consumption and pollutant emissions. Also, creating a pleasant environment in general is one more purpose of G-SEED certification system. However, G-SEED certification in practice is difficult and time consuming due to the complexity of the certification acquisition process coupled with little economic consideration for the materials of each certification item. Therefore, in this study, we present a model for the optimal selection of materials and economic assessment using a genetic algorithm. The development of the model involves building a material database based on life-cycle costing (LCC) targeted at "Application of Indoor Air Pollutant Low Emission Material" from G-SEED. Next, the model was validated using a real non-residential building case study. The result shows an average cost reduction rate of 74.5 % compared with the existing cost. This model is expected to be used as an economically efficient tool in G-SEED.

This study aims at analyzing the influences of Certification of Green Logistics Company on performance and suggesting the implications. Based on previous studies which were related to certificate system of green logistics company and logistics performance, this study established research model and hypothesis, and surveyed the employees who worked in the field of logistics. To analyze the data, factor analysis, reliability analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation model were applied. The results are as follows. The object management of green logistics gives significantly positive effect to logistics performance and environment performance. The measurement of logistics energy and green gas give meaningful positive effect to logistics performance, environment performance and resource performance. The conversion of green logistics does not give significantly positive effect to any performances. And the effect management of green logistics has significant influence on firm performance.

As a green construction is a world-wide hot issue, Korean government is also putting forth a multilateral effort into reducing energy usage with setting aggressive goal under green growth policy. It is essential to analyse cost raised from designing and building green construction and benefit derived from the built facility for the sustainable green construction. However, compared to advanced countries in terms of green construction, there is lack of data and a systematic way for data collection and analysis in Korea. Without analyzing the cost-benefit of green construction, investors will hesitate to put his/her money into green construction and we can not expect its growth in construction industry. In this paper, cost of green construction was defined and categorized. Through case studies and various reports on cost-benefit analysis in advanced green construction countries, problems in terms of data collection and analysis in domestic green construction sector and improvement ways were suggested. The results of this study will contribute in classification of cost and benefit of green construction, data collection in systematic way, and increasing the feasibility of green construction via appropriate analysis on cost-benefit of green construction.

'Green growth' is the development strategy for the sustainable society through the harmony between the environment and economy. The 'green growth' was defined and accepted by UNESCAP and countries in Asia-Pacific region. OECD also accepted it as their new development policy. 'Green New Deal' was also proposed as a new social/economic policy to response three global crisis: environmental, resources and economic. Social and environmental sustainability are the most important principles of this policy. In Korea, however, the 'green growth' is redefined and used by the government and politicians as an economic policy to support the new technology on energy efficiency and renewable energy. In here, the definitions of green growth in the world and in Korea are analysed and compared, and new term is proposed. Green growth is the development policy to response environmental crisis (ie. climate changes) to transform the society to environmentally and socially sustainable one. The possible contribution of geomorphologic researches to green growth was also proposed.
