    The context of sustainable development poses new challenges for traditional environmental decision-making tools, such as environmental impact assessment, environmental management system and life cycle assessment. Today these tools are expected to provide multi-disciplinary information to aid sustainability decisions, not just to inform decisions about environmental effects. This paper brings together the different perspectives of authors from EIA, EMS and clean technology/LCA to examine critically the separate tools in the ...

    Many of society’s most pressing problems are long-term policy challenges, lasting a generation or more. Policymakers and business leaders often face strategic decisions with uncertain future outcomes. Despite numerous unpredictable factors, decision-makers need to be confident that they can achieve specific outcomes. Failing to do so could result in systemic failures with major consequences for society. The European Environment Agency (EEA) undertook analyses through the BLOSSOM project (Bridging long-term scenario and strategy analysis: organisation and methods) to identify a ‘toolbox’ of approaches to institutionalise long-term futures thinking in government; to explore which countries have introduced respective approaches and tools, and to identify the pioneers as well as which methods have become commonplace and which have not; to look for commonalities and differences and identify the factors that can explain the success or failure of efforts to embed a long-term perspective in...

    Climate change and biodiversity loss are among the most important environmental challenges facing the EU today. Both are complex and cross-cutting issues, which impact upon nearly all human activity. Progress towards combating and adapting to climate change, and halting the loss of biodiversity and damage to ecosystems requires sound consideration of these issues within the development and implementation of plans and programmes. To achieve this requires the improved integration of these complex issues into both the SEA and plan- / programme-making processes and the recognition that SEAs, especially within the context of a changing climate, need to assess not just the effect of the plan/programme on the environment, but also the effects future changes in the climate and ecosystem services for example will have on the plan/programme, i.e. its resilience to these changes. This paper considers the value added to SEA, and plan/programme proponents alike, by incorporating climate change a...
