The purpose of this current paper was to investigate into the trends and effects of green marketing in India and China with relations to ethnicity and cross cultural aspects. These two countries are fast developing and looks promising in terms of economic power but lack the green marketing consciousness compared to other well developed countries. Many measures are being taken by various industries for the promotion of green awareness in these countries. The two countries are fast developing in the area of green marketing. Green marketing should improve its methods utilizing the cultural differences that is evident from previous research. In the near future, more active green marketing targeting and informing consumers of environmental benefits will be needed by taking ethnicity into consideration for further heightening of overall environmental awareness and initiative.

지구온난화와 그에 따른 기후변화로 수자원부족현상이 전지구적으로 나타남에 따라 세계 각국은 물부족 현상을 극복하기 위해 다양한 대처방안을 찾고 있다. 가상수 이론은 전세계적 차원에서 상품에 내재된 가상수를 통해 물을 공급하고 배분함으로써 물부족을 해결할 수 있다는 주장으로서 물부족현상에 처한 세계 각국의 관심을 끌고 있다. 특히 향후 국제적 수준에서 물거래에 대한 조치가 예상됨에 따라 이에 가상수가 국가간에 얼마나 어떠한 형태로 이동하는지 '가상수 이동'에 대한 정보가 필요하게 되었다. 그럼에도 불구하고 지금까지의 가상수 흐름에 대한 정보는 미국이나 일본 등을 중심으로 한 자료뿐이었다. 한국을 중심으로 한국의 관심사를 반영한 가상수 이동에 대한 연구결과는 충분하지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전세계적 수준에서의 가상수 이동추이를 한국을 중심으로 분석하도록 한다. 분석수준은 전세계적 수준과 국가간 수준이며, 분석기간은 1989년부터 2014년까지 총 26년이다. 분석 대상은 가상수 교역이 활발한 주요 16개국의 11개 농축산물이다. 분석을 위한 자료로는 UN과 세계식량기구의 자료를 활용해 데이터셋을 구축했다. 분석결과 전세계적 수준에서는 콩, 옥수수, 밀, 보리가 주요 가상수 수출입 품목으로 밝혀졌다. 시기별로는 1999년 까지는 밀의 교역이 압도적이었으나 1999년 이후 콩 가상수의 교역이 증가하고 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 가상수의 유형과 관련해서는 녹색가상수의 교역이 청색가상수보다 압도적으로 많았으며, 국가간의 가상수 이동량은 지속적으로 증가하고 있는 추세임을 알 수 있었다. 가상수의 주요 수출국은 미국을 비롯해 브라질, 아르헨티나, 호주 등 농업대국이 상위권을 차지했고, 주요 수입국은 중국, 일본, 한국 등 동북아시아 국가들이었다. 가상수 수출은 미국이 분석기간 내내 우위를 차지하나, 2000년대 이후 중국의 부상이 눈에 띄는 변화라고 할 수 있다. 가상수 수입과 관련해서는 2000년대 이후 중국의 가상수 수입 증가 추세가 두드러졌다. 국가간 수준의 분석에서는 한국과 미국, 한국과 중국, 한국과 호주 등 한국의 주요 가상수 교역국가간의 흐름을 분석했다. 국가간 수준의 분석에서 특기할 만한 점은 미국에서 한국으로 이동한 전체 가상수의 81퍼센트를 녹색가상수가 차지하며, 한국에서 중국으로 이동한 가상수의 74퍼센트가 축산물 가상수라는 점이었다. 본 연구의 분석결과를 기반으로 해 향후에는 가상수 이동 데이터베이스를 구축할 것이 요구되며, 가상수 이동추이의 변화가 가져올 시나리오에 대한 연구도 필요하다고 할 수 있다.

Each country has set low-carbon green growth to a new growth drive for the future while making various efforts. Accordingly, our country also set green growth to our policy task in top priority throughout our country while initiating various policies. Our country has focused on initiating a few policies in green growth. Our country has focused on the development of green industries to secure our national competitiveness while generating added values in green growth. It is necessary to have studies in initiating policies in balance when we consider that green growth should be initiated through the shift over the whole lifestyle. On the other hand, policies led and driven by the central government have been emphasized. Although the planning and establishment of policies might be said to fall under the central government's main areas, green growth policies can be realized regionally in the end. Considering these circumstances, the coordination in a proper way between the central government and each municipality can also be seen as major characteristics only in our country, which can be hardly seen in other countries. This study aims at developing the initiative strategies in our country's green logistics while analyzing the characteristics of green growth and situations of green logistics initiative, studying the government's policies to support green logistics, reviewing the government's policies for supports, and suggesting alternatives for them.

Recently, the global paradigm on the economic structure has been changed from the price-oriented borderless competition toward the sustainable quality movement due to the ever-increasing global warming and environmental issues. Since Korea hosted the global 20 summit in 2010, it has promoted the green growth policies and asked for the other countries to participate in. Unfortunately, it is not easy to figure out the green growth or green productivity because the economic performance has a side effect of environmental pollution such as CO2 emission. This paper aims to analyzes the methodological comparison for all the related issues with green productivity and suggests the new paradigm of global Malmquist-Lundberger index (GML) as the most flexible field and performance-oriented criteria to measure the green productivity.

As abnormal climate phenomena frequently happen due to the after-effect of the global warming, all nations suggest climate change response policies in many different fields to prevent global warming by reducing greenhouse gas. Especially, these days, the realization that the greenhouse gas from city buildings should be decreased is growing, and it is because that buildings are accounted for a quarter of national greenhouse gas emission and it is more than half the percentage of emissions within the city. Accordingly, Korean government sees the need to take an initiating role to fulfill low-carbon green policies and promotion strategies in the public sector, and wants to facilitate greenhouse gas reduction in the private sector as well. In this background, this study tries to examine the low-carbon planning element in public buildings and figure out the amount of carbon reduction and economic analysis centering Cheongju city as case study. Lastly, we propose some suggestion for low-carbon and greening of public buildings.

Energy consumption of building is given a sizable portion in total national energy conservation and if current trends continues, energy conservation level will rise as level of developed country. For this reason, a basic plan is proposed for integrated management system to manage energy conservation of buildings using a link with energy information and building information. Specifically, the questionnaire investigation conducted by building energy expert is performed to determine the projects along with time schedule and demands level of management system. In addition, to investigate study on energy usage information and management situation the management architecture of energy supplier is also studied.

The growing amount of using the fossil fuel is bringing about environmentally, economically serious problems like as global warming. To solve the problems, the international society has begun to decrease greenhouse gases through the international agreement like as the climate change convention. In South of Korea, it was presented practical goal of Green Development try to decrease greenhouse, which is the future 60 years vision. And, it contains the strategies of Green Development and 5th Plan of Green Development. Nowadays, the government accepted the active alternative scenario 3, which is the goal of 4% decrease in greenhouse gases until 2020's, presented by Presidential Committee on Green Growth. This study established the strategies of Transport Demand Management to decrease the greenhouse gases in transportation part, and then we measured the effect of them. As a result, if it takes effect the aggressive strategies annually, it will cut greenhouse gas pollution by 3.1%, which is 7,590,000t$CO_2eq$, in transportation part. So, we can expect that it would be the effective policy tool to achieve the goal of government, which is the Green Development, if it controls the strategies of TDM effectively by the political needs.

The Green Infrastructure Framework refers to an interconnected network formed by greenways that links gardens, parks, green spaces, streams, wetlands, agricultural lands, and green belts. Green infrastructure supports diverse functions to environment, provides various benefits to people, and helps in the community's health and viability. It can store stormwater runoff and abate its non-point source pollutants. Due to its advantages and profits, advanced countries in environment policies have adopted green infrastructure in planning and implementing urban and regional development. The Korean government and municipalities have focused upon grey infrastructure investment in the past, which causes occurrence of natural disasters such as draught, flood, and landslides, degradation of water and air quality, decline of biodiversity, and even inhibition of economic activities. In order to alleviate these problems, it is requested to formulate and implement policies for green infrastructure at the national government level. USA and Korean situation of green infrastructure were investigated; forty components of green infrastructure were drawn. Nine policies utilized in the USA cases were identified, which are applicable to Korea. Among them, five policies can be implemented in public sector and four in private one. The green infrastructure law needed in Korea was suggested. The amendments of laws regarding green infrastructure and alternatives expending it were proposed.

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.

'2010 대한민국 녹색에너지대전'이 지식경제부 주최, 에너지관리공단 주관으로 지난 10월 13일부터 16일까지 4일간 서울 삼성동 코엑스홀에서 개최되었다. 올해로 30번째를 맞이한 대한민국 녹색에너지대전은 그 어느 해보다 의미가 크다고 할 수 있다. 30년이라는 긴 역사에 걸맞게 LG전자 현대중공업 삼성중공업 OCI 효성 등 대한민국을 대표하는 에너지 관련 기업들이 대거 참여하였고, 정부가 2010년까지 온실가스 배출전망량(BAU) 대비 30% 감축하겠다는 목표를 제시함은 물론 그에 맞춰 에너지온실가스 목표관리제가 도입돼 에너지 절약에 대한 관심이 그 어느 때보다 높기 때문이다. 더욱이 올해 처음 개최되는 신재생에너지대전이 함께 열리면서 참가기업이 251개, 총 1,008개 부스로 확대되었고, 에너지 효율 향상에 관한 대표적 프로젝트로 성장하고 있는 ESCO 산업 특별 테마관이 마련되기도 하였다. ESCO 산업 특별 테마관은 국내 ESCO 업체인 삼성에버랜드 LIG엔설팅 금호이엔지 에너지솔루션즈 지멘스 테크윈 등이 직접 참여하여 최신 기술과 정보를 전달하고 관련 상담을 진행하였다. 또한 최근 각광을 받고 있는 LED 고효율 조명관을 특별 조성해 국가 경제의 차세대 성장동력인 친환경 조명기술을 선보이기도 했다.
