The chemical industry is an important sector in the modern economy. In addition to its own sustainable development strategy, the chemical industry has a unique role in the sustainable development of many industries. The study of the relationship between sustainable development and the chemical industry is very important. While comprehensively understanding and understanding sustainable development, we should further study some common issues based on the characteristics of the chemical industry in order to facilitate the chemical industry to grasp the new situation. Live an opportunity and seek development.
Sustainable Development Brings Challenges to the World In 1987, the United Nations World Commission on Environment and Development stated in its report “Our Common Future†that the advancement and development of people all over the world should not jeopardize the natural environment on which we depend for our survival. And the various concerns of society need to be considered together. Although people are not yet able to determine the needs of future generations, contemporary leaders must face the relevant challenges and ensure that they do not choose ways to influence future generations to meet the needs of the present generation.
Sustainable development must be the coordinated realization of the economic, environmental, and social goals. Sustainability has three levels of meaning: First, the economic content, refers to the effective management of rare resources and related industries and the economy; Second, environmental awareness, refers to the ecological environment can not afford unbearable burden, to maintain the natural basis of life; Third, social views mean that human beings are the center of attention. As the world’s population continues to increase, it is necessary to provide equal opportunity, freedom, social equity, and security guarantees as much as possible.
The current world faces global challenges: to obtain the best benefits from limited resources, ensure that no excessive pressure is exerted on the ecosystem, the world’s population continues to grow, and social and economic inequalities are corrected.
Sustainable development calls on people, governments, industries, and organizations to take action on this issue. The global chemical industry has accepted this challenge and believes that sustainable development requires all sectors of society to share responsibility.
With the advancement of the chemical industry, it is through chemical products to improve human survival conditions and its operating performance. The chemical industry is optimistic about sustainable development. We believe that sustainable development can become a platform for knowledge and wisdom, and that the chemical industry can form consensus with other industries and all sectors of society—how to improve and improve living standards and the environment.
The contribution of the chemical industry to sustainable development Chemical industry products and services are indispensable means of satisfying human needs. They come from all aspects of life, from food to clothing, housing, transportation and communications, and even entertainment. The chemical industry can also help other industrial sectors to solve existing problems, such as energy, information technology, environmental protection, and waste disposal.
The chemical industry is an important supplier of society. It provides a wide range of products and services to a wide range of downstream industries and consumers. It plays an important role in supporting the performance improvement of other industries and the progress of research and development. From the perspective of the chemical industry itself, it provides a lot of job opportunities, creates wealth, and gives primary financial support for public affairs and social responsibility. As people's living standards are largely determined by matter, the chemical industry with advanced production capacity plays a decisive role in sustainable development.
The world chemical industry's commitment to sustainable development needs to form a text into the company's activity planning, thus establishing a framework for the industry. The chemical industry's Responsible Care initiative, self-monitoring systems, and other voluntary programs (such as "sustainable technologies", educational and industrial participation programs, energy efficiency programs, etc.) are all part of this framework. All companies must face challenges, take responsibility, and take active actions. In their own development plans, they must consider society and the next generation.
The world’s chemical industry believes that the key to improving performance is twofold: First, it is a commitment to achieving environmentally friendly and sustainable development, and the second is improving performance and transparency. Under the concept of “Responsible Careâ€, the chemical industry promises to constantly seek performance improvement at all levels of safety, health and environmental protection, train employees, and exchange product applications and overall operations with customers and relevant communities. Through these efforts, the chemical industry has improved its own efficiency, reduced risks to health and the environment, created better products, and contributed to people and society.
The leading position of the chemical industry in innovation "Sustainable development" requires many new approaches. The contribution of the chemical industry is to continuously innovate products so that they meet the needs of users; at the same time, innovation in manufacturing processes reduces risks to health and the environment. The basis of these contributions comes from knowledge and experience. It can not only apply innovation to the manufacture, storage, transportation, and application of chemical products, but also can be used for reprocessing, recycling, and solving environmental problems. In other words, the challenge faced by the chemical industry is to maximize innovation in order to meet the needs of social sustainable development.
Innovation is the best way for the chemical industry to achieve sustainable development. For each chemical company, it needs to make efforts in the following eight aspects: Adhere to the improvement of products, technologies and various processes to provide the greatest possible future development; New integrated environmental technology; maintaining close cooperation with users of the chemical industry; adapting to global competition conditions; enabling products to enter the market as soon as possible; strengthening research and development, obtaining R&D funding from profitable income; and actively proposing opinions on socially relevant policies And recommendations; improve the process yield.
The path to economic goals for sustainable development Global economic competition has intensified, and the relationship between economic systems has become increasingly complex. Multinational chemical companies are using global standards for global investment and market development to establish the concept of the world market. They must play a key role in sustainable development and must first express freedom and fairness in international trade. As the engine of economic development, trade is at the core of sustainable development. The growth of trade environment requirements can be carried out on a foreseeable and transparent basis. It guides investors with long-term decisions. This also includes government intervention and coordination of industries and the use of taxes. Raising income will bring a certain burden on industry and commerce.
Creating wealth and profits is the foundation of sustainable development. Through reinvestment and research and development, we can promote economic development, provide new technologies, and improve the environment. In order to get rich profits, you need to create a flexible corporate structure.
In order to maintain its leading position in sustainable development, the long-term future of the chemical industry must be based on policies that are motivated by development, not only continue to contribute to the creation of wealth and employment opportunities, but also continuously improve the company's ability to innovate and reengineer and maintain international competition. ability.
The world economy along the path of sustainable development will have a positive impact on the chemical industry. It requires that the transfer of effective technologies to other countries or groups (especially developing countries) must have high standards of environment, health and safety; Chemical industry operations in other countries must apply globally comparable standards; require monitoring and ensuring that they meet globally accepted and acceptable standards; reorganize factories and offices in other countries through training courses to provide training to employees and users. The chemical industry plays an important role in establishing an economic framework that meets the above requirements, but it also requires the promotion of managers.
The way to the environmental goals of sustainable development is to further protect the environment. The society requires the establishment of a set of strict standards and related parameters in the market economy, and various industrial departments should determine how their own standards meet these parameters. For the chemical industry, consider the following parameters:
The scientific environment monitoring system is of great significance. Adhering to the comprehensive road of environmental protection and waste reduction, that is, comprehensive environmental protection considerations for products and processes, and start as soon as possible. Comprehensive environmental protection strengthens the safety of factories and products, improves the production of waste, and increases production efficiency. This parameter complies with the "product service standard" in the "responsible care" commitment system of the chemical industry.
Energy costs are the key to the chemical industry. Since the economic and environmental optimization of raw materials and energy utilization policies are the best interests of the companies, the company has the responsibility to implement them in order to balance both the environment and the economy. This policy also includes the recycling and reuse of products.
It is necessary to compete for energy input. The management of limited natural resources is a pillar industry for sustainable development. Through chemical innovation, the chemical industry enables other industries to use resources more effectively and reduce the impact on the environment.
To achieve the above goals, the chemical industry needs a global political-economic framework that can be adopted by various governments to make it more conducive to corporate decisions.
Ways to reach the goals related to sustainable development The participation of the chemical industry is one of the key factors in achieving the sustainable development goals. The chemical companies have effective competition in the global market and have succeeded, ensuring that there will be long-term employment opportunities in the future and giving performance Recognize, adhere to labor protection and show concern for issues in developing countries.
The current needs of society must be defined by the activities of the society itself and various relationships so as to form a paradox. The chemical industry must express its own will and openly commit itself to the responsibility for sustainable development. In the discussion of risk, participants' opinions can be presented regardless of whether they are reasonable or not. Discussions on environmental reporting and risk issues in the chemical industry need to be open and transparent. The realization of sustainable development requires the formation of public opinion in the society and the promotion of the society towards the established goals.
Policy challenges The chemical industry believes that advancing along the path of sustainable development is the only way out for the market economy. The chemical industry requires policies to ensure the maintenance of the market economy framework. The best way to achieve the set goals in this framework is to introduce legislation and voluntary measures. Combine with market capabilities.
Establishing an environmental policy that is compatible with a market economy is not simply drafting detailed regulations, but rather determining transparent and achievable environmental policy goals. In fact, the long-term interests of the society and the current scientific level are the basis for determining the environmental standards. Environmental policies as a set of strategies cannot be just national actions, but must conform to scientific and social trends.
Economic policies must promote structural changes in the environment, consider the distribution of income and employment at the national level, and give structural adjustments ample time.
According to the nature and importance of the problem, it is not feasible for each country to take action alone. Instead, unilateral measures are not used to face environmental issues outside the country. Therefore, national policies must promote sustainable development in most countries in the world. All countries must strive to achieve harmony and at least keep the environmental goals consistent. This needs to be achieved through international cooperation.
The most important tasks of economic and social policies include: encouraging the state to intervene in mediation to ensure that the framework is suitable for the market economy; promoting freedom and fairness in international trade; promoting disputes through industrial restructuring, reducing non-competitive costs (labour, energy), and strengthening Science and technology basics to improve international competitiveness; improve laws and environmental policies based on sound scientific foundations; allow voluntary principles; and formulate regulations based on long-term predictable reasons.
Structural changes in sustainable development require close cooperation between policies and policies. For example, various measures should be coordinated with one another, not contradictory, and consistent with the overall goal. This requires each policy to determine its own priorities accordingly.
The formulation of policies should be consistent with the focus and purpose of research. The success of policy formulation will depend to a large extent on the potential for innovation among companies, research institutions, universities, and relevant groups in society. To be successful, activities in these areas must be integrated into a global science and information exchange network.
In addition, sustainable development requires the establishment in advance of an effective education and training system, education and training of relevant policies, advancement of early-warning issues based on scientific knowledge, and improvement of people’s ability and willingness to promote necessary changes in the economy and society. .
Indicators for evaluating goals and methods are indivisible because of the three dimensions of sustainable development (economic, environmental, and social-related issues), and overall consideration must be given to achieving these goals. The actions of one country cannot affect the global sustainable development goals. The international political and policy coordination framework is a decisive factor for success. The pre-determined basic agreement is not only an action taken by a certain goal or general national policy, but more importantly, it follows the international procedures and decision-making process, and must clearly define the goal.
The contradiction between various objectives must be solved before the implementation of various measures. Because of the complexity of some contradictions, it is necessary to carry out research one by one, so that the objectives and methods can be properly combined.
Each goal and method must meet the following indicators:
Executability: The objectives must be based on reality and neither go beyond the system's possibilities and related capabilities.
Balanced: Based on economic, technical environmental indicators and social acceptance, make an overall assessment to ensure that work is carried out in a balanced manner.
Flexibility: Design of goals and measures must be adapted to changing requirements.
Reversibility: If there is a new situation or an unexpected adverse effect occurs, it must be possible to withdraw some of the goals or take exceptions;
The neutrality of the competition: The goals and methods must not violate the principle of equality. More importantly, they cannot undermine the equal opportunities in international competition and must be conducted at the most appropriate level.
The methods and methods chosen must comply with the laws of the market and must not affect the basic rights of citizens. Therefore, responsible action is not only an irreplaceable part of the company, but also must be observed and performed by every citizen.
