What are the sustainable development goals? What are Daly's rules for ecological sustainability? What are the advantages and disadvantages of dams? Is it true that many organizations are calling for the removal of dams? Why? Are there any dangers expected from rivers? How can we address them? What are the modern concerns about plastic, and what are the solutions? Is there any impact of IT on the environment and society? Explain. What is the meaning of LD50? What are the sources of toxicology?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking for definitions and explanations related to environmental studies, including sustainable development, ecological rules, impact of dams, plastic concerns, and toxicology. This requires knowledge of environmental science concepts and principles.

Answer

1. SDGs are 17 global goals. 2. Daly's rules: sustainable scale, fair distribution. 3. Dam pros: water/energy; cons: ecology. 4. Dam removal for environment. 5. River dangers: floods/pollution. 6. Plastic pollution/sustainable materials. 7. IT impacts environment, mitigated by green tech. 8. LD50: lethal dose for 50%. 9. Toxicology sources: chemicals/toxins.
  1. The sustainable development goals (SDGs) are 17 global goals to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all.
  2. Daly's rules focus on sustainable scale, fair distribution, and efficient allocation of resources.
  3. Advantages of dams: flood control, water supply, and energy. Disadvantages: ecological disruption, loss of wildlife habitat.
  4. Many organizations call for dam removal due to environmental concerns like fish migration and water quality.
  5. River dangers include flooding and pollution; solutions involve flood management and pollution control.
  6. Concerns about plastic include pollution and wildlife harm; solutions are recycling and biodegradable materials.
  7. IT impacts include energy consumption and e-waste; mitigated by green technologies.
  8. LD50 is the lethal dose of a substance killing 50% of a test population.
  9. Sources of toxicology include chemicals, natural toxins, and industrial pollutants.

More Information

The SDGs aim for a balanced integration of social, economic, and environmental dimensions. IT innovations like cloud computing have reduced the carbon footprint, while e-waste remains a challenge.

Tips

A common mistake is to overlook the social and economic aspects in environmental sustainability discussions.
