  • This paper analyzes the impact of CSR on the capital market in Korea. Using listed firm data, we found that the creation of a sustainability report that indirectly measures the level of CSR can bring the stock rate of return difference of the capital markets representative market index. First, when a firm that publishes a sustainability report was compared in terms of its market rate of return, it showed a return increase of about 2%. We found that higher returns were gained through the competitive advantage of related business when the firm was actively involved in social responsibility. Second, subdivided by industry, firms belonging to the capital goods industry were found to reach a rate of return higher than that of industry. These firms were noticeable in that they were mainly industries that caused environmental pollution. Third, in an additional analysis, foreign investors were given the sustainability report of financial businesses, which was interpreted as a result of industrial properties. A sustainability report is a comprehensive report on the economic, environmental, and social activities of a firm. Firms must learn that they can gain trust through publishing trustworthy reports while achieving the lasting power of growth from the stakeholders.

  • The aim of this study is to propose the design suitable for sustainability evaluation model of the mobile industry considering system process (SEP). Although a quantitative evaluation was conducted on the link between the national sustainability report and the mobile industry, it was confirmed that it was difficult to identify stakeholders. So it is necessary to develop the design process suitable for the more operator-specific interfaces. The Human System Integration (HSI) methodology was proposed through linkage with work domain analysis. Agile methodology and Resilience engineering methodology were added for sustainable model design. The proposed sustainability system evaluation model is applied so that it can be easily used in all industries.

  • A study on the sustainability evaluation of the requirements of the mobile industry closely related to the human factor was needed. We conducted the sustainability evaluation of the mobile industry using a quantitative evaluation method with the AHP tool and a qualitative evaluation method reflecting the technological age flow of the philosophical thoughts to improve the reliability of the evaluation results of the model verification. And this evaluation is to evaluate the consistency of the connection between the national sustainability and the mobile industry. In order to draw the conclusion of the relevance, the team member Delphi 5-point scale was used. As a result, the priority was confirmed in the national sustainable development indicator and mobile industry indicator. Quantitative and qualitative evaluation was applied to the discontinued model of mobile to derive insufficient indicators, and it was confirmed that if the indicators were improved and reflected, it would be sustainable. And in order to secure reliability and accuracy, we made a proposal to apply the systems engineering process to the development of the model evaluation field. The systems engineering technology process meets the needs and requirements of stakeholders throughout the lifecycle and it is suitable for the development model of the industry's sustainability assessment.

  • The study is aimed to investigate the current status of ESD(Education for Sustainable Development) programs in private sector(businesses) carried out in Korea since UN DESD was launched in 2005, For this purpose we conducted a questionnaire survey and case studies on those companies who have supposedly pursued sustainability management Results of questionnaire surveys showed that those in charge of writing sustainability reports in companies had an extremely high understanding of SO, but were not well aware of ESD. These businesses started to pursue sustainable management due to global trends and decisions of CEOs, and most of them had divisions that took charge of or are responsible for sustainable management Sustainability issues that they mainly dealt with were corporate social responsibility, energy and climate change, but other issues were being covered, too. Internal stakeholders got involved in projects related to sustainability from the planning stage. Learning on sustainable management was primarily made through information delivery, and education programs were usually conducted for staff members and executives. Those who cooperated on their sustainable development projects were mostly local communities, universities, etc. They had few ESD programs that they directly developed and carried out, and few cases of ESD-related cooperation; and in those few cases, their partners were often elementary/middle/high schools and universities. Results of ESD case studies and questionnaire surveys showed that businesses dealt with various issues of sustainable development in addition to corporate social responsibility and diversified education programs were carried out inside these companies, Business themselves, therefore, need to be considered and researched in further detail as important targets of ESD as well as supporters or cooperation partners on ESD programme.

  • The methodology report '2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories' shows higher tier method can be a good practice, which uses country-specific or plant-specific data when calculating greenhouse gas emissions by country. We review the methodology report to present principles of using plant-level data and also examine examples of using plant-level data in chemical and metal industry in 20 countries for the purpose of quality improvement of national greenhouse gas inventories. We propose that Korea consider utilizing plant-level data, as reported according to 'Greenhouse gas and Energy Target Management Scheme', in the following order as a preference. First, the data can be utilized for quality control of Korea's own parameters, when Tier 2 method is adopted and bottom-up approach is not applicable. Second, both plant-level data and IPCC default data can be used together, combining Tier 1 method with Tier 3 method. Third, we can also use acquired plant-level data and country specific parameters, combining Tier 2 method with Tier 3 method. Fourth, if the plant-level data involves all categories of emissions and the data is proven to be representative, we can apply Tier 3 method. In this case, we still need to examine the data to check its reliability by a consistent framework, including appropriate quality control.

  • The heavy dependence of modern science-based agriculture on chemicals such as fertilizers and pesticides, and heavy machinery gave rise to questions about long-term sustainability of agriculture in relation to degradation of soil quality. The research achievements and trends in developing soil quality indicators were introduced and discussed in this report. Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) established 13 agri-environment indicators including soil quality indicator in 1994, collected the soil data and methodologies for development of soil quality indicators in OECD member countries responded to OECD questionnaires and published the OECD reports, Environmental Indicators for Agriculture Volume 1, 2, and 3. Leading countries such as USA, Canada and New Zealand collected national data and evaluated the data in aspect of soil quality. They developed the various methods for selecting a minimum data set (MDS), scoring the soil properties and calculating soil quality index integrating the score of each soil property.

  • 사회의 지속가능한 발전은 최근 들어 모든 분야에서 중심 화두가 되어 왔으며, 문화유산 분야에서도 개념과 원칙에 대한 관심과 연구가 증가하고 있다. 본고에서는 문화유산 분야에 있어서 지속가능성의 개념을 지속가능한 발전에 대한 개념의 맥락에서 정의하고, 지속가능한 발전에 있어서 문화유산의 역할을 서술하고자 한다. 그리고 이를 실현하기 위한 원칙으로 가치 중심의 보존관리, 합리적 판단, 공동체의 참여 등의 보존 관리의 원칙을 제시하고자 한다. 이와 함께 실제 사례를 통해 그러한 역할과 원칙이 어떻게 적용되어야 하는지 살펴보고자 한다. 먼저 브룬트란트 보고서에서 제시한 지속가능성의 개념에 맞추어 문화유산의 지속가능성 개념을 제시하고, 문화유산을 자원으로 인식하는 관점에서 지속가능성의 대상에 문화유산이 중요한 자원중의 하나라는 관점에서 그 역할을 제시할 것이다. 다음으로 지속가능한 발전의 목표를 달성하기 위한 첫 번째 원칙으로 가치중심의 보존관리를 제시하고자 한다. 문화유산을 지속시키기 위한 보존과 관리 행위는 가치를 파악하고 가치를 유지하며 가치를 확산시키는 순환 과정이므로, 이를 위한 모든 절차에 있어서 가치가 판단 기준이 되어야 함을 강조하고자 한다. 두 번째 원칙으로 가치 중심의 보존관리를 위한 행위 원칙으로 합리적 판단을 제시하고자 한다. 문화유산과 연관된 모든 행위는 그 행위가 문화유산의 가치에 미치는 영향관계를 체계적으로 분석하고 부정적인 영향을 최소화하는 합리적인 의사 결정에 의하여 실행되어야 하므로, 그것을 담보하기 위한 제도적 장치 마련이 필수적이다. 마지막으로 가치중심의 보존관리와 합리적 판단을 위한 필수요소로 공동체의 참여를 세 번째 원칙으로 제시하고자 한다. 공적 대상인 문화유산에 대한 의사 결정이 특정 개인이나 단체가 아닌 국민의 합의에 의하여 이루어져야 지속가능성이 보장될 수 있다는 관점에서 공동체의 참여는 필수적이다. 마지막으로 국내 사례를 중심으로 지속가능성의 원칙이 어떻게 적용되어야 하는지 살펴보고, 가치 중심의 합리적 판단을 위한 개선 사항에 대해 제안하고자 한다.

  • Environmental sustainability is critical; else, the whole planet would face climatic disasters in the near future. A transportation system based on electric vehicles is assumed to be capable of providing long-term mobility. However, despite several attempts by national and international authorities, a great aim could not be met in India or the rest of the globe. Existing electric cars have a number of limits and obstacles. This report highlighted significant environmental and safety-related constraints that contribute to the low adoption rate of BEVs in India. A SWOT analysis was also carried out to identify the important elements influencing the future of BEV penetration in India.

  • On November 1, 2010, the release of ISO 26000 was announced. ISO 26000 does not require 3rd party verification. But even though it is a standard that is voluntarily adopted, because the international standard for social responsibility can be applied as a trade barrier or business condition between countries, it cannot be ignored. So it is clear that we need to be alerted and prepared for this. This paper offers to help with such needs through organizations by developing an index that organizations can use to understand their current situation and diagnose themselves. This paper conducts a comparative analysis between the 7 core subjects and issues of ISO 26000, the existing indexes used by national institutions and the guideline for sustainable management report, the GRI, with the goal of developing a self-diagnostic index that organizations can utilize in order to diagnose their level of social responsibility. It is divided into the 7 core subjects with 181 measurement issues. There are 7 quantitative issues and 164 qualitative issues. The core subjects, excluding governance, are each alloted 14 points, while governance is alloted with 16 points, for a total score of 100 points. This paper is significant in that it is the first index to make self-diagnostic possible.
