본 논문은 환경윤리의 관점에서 자연(自然)과 인간(人間)과의 관계를 주역(周易)을 통해 살펴보았다. 주역(周易)은 환경문제의 바람직한 대안으로 자주 언급되는 문헌이다. 주역(周易)에서 자연(自然)과 인간(人間)의 관계를 어떻게 규정하는지를 살펴보고 인간(人間)이 어떻게 해야 하는가를 중심으로 논의를 전개하였다. 자연(自然)은 끊임없는 생성(生成)을 통해 소멸(消滅)하는 것을 보충한다. 지속적으로 새로운 것을 생성(生成)함으로써 소멸(消滅)해 가는 것을 보충하여 자연(自然)을 유지·보존한다. 자연(自然)의 입장에서는 소멸(消滅)과 생성(生成)이 균등하지만, 주역(周易)을 지은 성인(聖人)은 모든 것이 소멸(消滅)하는 것은 아닌가라는 우화(憂患)의식이 있었기 때문에 생성(生成)의 측면에서 주역(周易)을 서술하였다. 자연(自然)은 항상 스스로를 유지·보존하기 때문에 스스로를 파괴하는 일은 없다. 인간(人間)은 자연(自然)에 의해 만들어진 만물(萬物) 가운데 하나이지만 삼재 가운데 하나라는 지위도 부여받았다. 자연(自然)은 지위에 따른 책임과 의무도 부여하였지만 인간(人間)은 지위를 향유(享有)하기만 하고 책임과 의무를 다하지 않았다. 삼재(三才) 가운데 하나라는 지위만을 향유(享有)하였기 때문에 자연(自然)을 파괴하기에 이른 것이다. 인간(人間)은 지위를 향유(享有)하기도 해야 하지만 천지화육()天地化育을 돕는 책임과 의무도 다해야 한다. 자연(自然)을 파괴한 것은 인간(人間)이지만 자연(自然)의 생성(生成)을 도울 수 있는 것도 인간(人間)이다. 인간(人間)이 자연(自然)을 파괴한 것은 사욕(私欲)에 가려 자신의 책임과 의무를 망각했기 때문이다. 인간(人間)이 사욕(私欲)을 제거하고 부여된 책임과 의무를 성실히 이행한다면 자연(自然)은 다시 소생할 것이다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to reveal the circumstances under which the cases of harm to health caused by humidifier disinfectant were neglected and show the points where the number of victims and the degree of damage could have been reduced. In addition, it attempts to describe how damage management proceeded immediately after the incident and actually exacerbated the damage. Finally, it explores the unfortunate aspects of the recent trial. By doing so, it attempts to take this as an opportunity to consider whether a tragic event such as the humidifier disinfectant incident could occur in the future. Methods: This study collected and analyzed data on chemical material characteristics related to humidifier disinfectants, data on health effect characteristics, data on related laws and regulations from the Ministry of Environment, data related to the damage investigation by the Korea Environmental Industry and Technology Institute, and current contents. Results: The lack of related systems and laws is the area where the greatest responsibility for the cause of the humidifier disinfectant disaster falls, so it is difficult for the government to escape this responsibility. Establishing a dedicated department to identify the prevalence of certain diseases within the functions of the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service to monitor health can greatly contribute to the prevention and management of diseases through early detection and management of group outbreaks caused by harmful factors. Humidifier disinfectant damage relief should have been expanded earlier beyond HDLI (humidifier disinfectant lung injury) to include non-specific diseases such as asthma, pneumonia, and interstitial pneumonia. The scope of relief benefits should have also been expanded earlier to include the payment of disability benefits. Fortunately, with the 2020 revision of the Special Act, the conditions for estimating causal relations were eased and individual screening systems such as health impact assessment were reorganized along with the introduction of a rapid screening system. Conclusions: The management system for chemical substances in a country is clearly of paramount importance, and the ministry in charge must have a response system in case of damage to health effects. Administration that looks at the victims' situation from their point of view is needed, and technical countermeasures are required to quickly recognize the prevalence of certain diseases.

In summary, air pollution issues in the United States are addressed by a core group of regulations supplemented by active Interventions as needed by public health agencies. The strategies employed by public health officials must be flexible and innovative to address the needs of the citizens, As you can see from the examples cited above, the collaboration of public health agencies can be critical in protecting communities from adverse exposures. In the US state and local governments have the primary responsibility for health and safety issues, including those associated with air pollution. The federal agencies have responsibilities when activities between states are involved and or the issues are of national significance. Significant challenges and opportunities remain to identify the relationship to air pollution and other environmental factors and the incidence of disease, and hence develop and implement Intervention strategies.

This paper investigated the symptoms of taxi drivers' physical self-consciousness. As the subjects for the study, 374 taxi drivers participated in the survey for three months, and its result showed as follows:1. In the items of the physical symptoms, the eye's fatigue was indicated as a greatest complaint, and the corporate-taxi drivers showed a higher complaint rate than the owner-taxi drivers. 2. The survey also indicated that taxi drivers over 50 years old showed the highest complaining rate of eye's fatigue, shoulder pain, loins pain, and severe headache. Feelings of burning on empty stomach was the highest complaint factor in the age group between 30 and 39 years old, and pain and burning feelings in eyes in the age group between 20 and 29 years old.3. In the study of the complaining rate of physical symptoms by working hours, the nighttime driers complained of their self-consciousness symptoms of leg and knee pain, shoulder pain, benumbed legs, and these drivers also showed a relatively high complaint rate resulting from the responsibility of living expenses.

Life cycle assessment(LCA) has been developed from the concept of life cycle thinking. Life cycle thinking implies that everyone in the whole chain of a product's life cycle, from cradle to grave, has a responsibility and a role to play, taking into account all the relevant external effects. LCA is an analytical tool for identifying environmental loads and assessing the environmental impact in the whole chain of a product's life cycle. In Europe and Japan, LCA and ecodesign study for railway industry have been actively carried out recently. However, LCA for railway industry in domestic is still infant. LCA is standardized in International Organization of Standardization(ISO), base on the ISO 14040 standards, 307 life cycle inventory(LCI) database for infrastructure and base materials have been established in total since 1999. Some of LCI database can use in performing LCA for trains and railway infrastructure, but still not enough to derive accurate LCA result. Therefore, railway oriented LCA methodology and LCI DB are needed to be developed.

Previous studies have demonstrated that the three dimensions of Triple Bottom Line (TBL : economic, social, and environmental responsibility) indirectly affect product/corporate evaluation through reciprocity perception and trust (expertize-based trust and benevolence-based trust). Different from the past studies, this study investigates on the indirect effects as well as the direct effects of the three dimensions on product/corporate evaluation. The empirical results can be summarized as follows. First, reciprocity perception affects benevolence-based trust but it does not expertize-based trust. Second, the effect of economic dimension on product/corporate evaluation is not affected by reciprocity perception and benevolence-based trust, however, the effects of social dimension and environmental dimension on product/corporate evaluation are affected by reciprocity perception and benevolence-based trust.

How can we reconcile our aspirations for more economic growth or prosperity with the constraints of a finite planet? One of the high-income countries, Japan, makes us wonder if we can deal with two different challenges simultaneously: overcoming economic recession and solving environmental degradation. This study investigates the supply-side perspective which highlights the productive capacity and efficiency of the economy through economic lenses and the demand-side perspective which highlights the Japanese personal lifestyles through social lenses. This study aims to answer the question, if Japan's sustainable consumption behavior is counter to economic development whilst environmentally proactive. It finds that translating individual practices and cultures of sustainability into the macro- scopic economic growth path is key to a sustainable and healthy Japan.

본 연구는 기업의 사회적 책임(CSR)이라는 개념이 어떻게 기업 전반으로 퍼져나가는지 그 확산과정을 실증분석한다. CSR은 현재 다양한 표현으로 재정립되기도 하고 기업마다 다른 형식으로 구현방식을 채택하고 있지만, 이러한 이질적인 현상들은 결국은 CSR이라는 개념을 기업이 받아들인다는 점에서 지식의 확산과정과 유사하다고 보았다. 본 연구는 지식 확산과정, 특히 환경의 압력에 의해서 지식을 채택할 수 밖에 없는 제도화과정을 이론적 틀로 채택하고 실제 기업들이 어떻게 CSR의 개념을 받아들이는지 그 과정을 분석한다. 이에 본 연구는 미국의 비코퍼레이션(B-corporation, 이하 비콥) 무브먼트에 참여하는 과정을 근접성의 개념을 통해서 밝혀보고자 하였다. 근접성은 환경의 특성과 조직의 특성 간의 거리를 의미하며, 근접성이 높을수록 환경에 의한 압력이 높은 것으로 보고, 지리적 근접성과 조직 근접성, 그리고 중복 근접성으로 세분화하였다. 2007년부터 2017년 사이 미국 중소기업 및 스타트업 536개 기업을 대상으로 근접성이 비콥인증 받을 가능성에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과, 지리적, 조직적, 그리고 중복 근접성은 새롭게 비콥 무브먼트에 참여하는 경향성을 높여주는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과는 기업이 내재적인 동기와 더불어 외재적인 압력에 의해서도 CSR 개념을 받아들일 가능성이 큼을 시사하며, 이는 CSR을 어떻게 이해할 수 있을 것인가에 대한 이론적·실무적 시사점을 제공한다.

Modem society has reached the level where its environmental pollution is in a critical stage, and socio-political focus has been moved onto the minimization of environmental pollution. In the fashion industry, ethical production and consumption for the global protection has become the value to aim for. The purpose of this study is to establish the concept of redesigned fashion, which is a type of designing method designed to reduce global waste, and conduct a case studies on it to analyze its patterns. Environmental-friendly redesigned fashion concept is about remaking a fashion with totally different function, using disposed and wornout items from everyday lives. It is a fashion design minimizing raw materials and reducing industrial wastes. The types of redesigned fashion may be divided into three patterns: first, there is a method to recreate collar, sleeves, cuffs, pocket and other usable pieces of old clothing to make a new one. Second method is about taking out usable parts of textile from various old clothing and make a new one with patchwork method. Third is about making a purse or fashion accessories using paper, vinyl, aluminum can or worn out leather. Fourth is about making a new artistic fashion by applying tearing, punching, fringing, mashing, and layering techniques. This study aim5 to help in spreading out and applying systematic practice of redesigned fashion for companies, and elaborate the sense of social responsibility for customers, and vitalize the fashion studies for redesigned fashion in academic sense.

The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between pro-environmental consumption consciousness and resource saving behavior of university students. This research has been conducted in 2005 through a written questionnaire with the students of a university in Seoul. After a preliminary research, the main research bas been executed in number of 616 copies. The date were analyzed by statistical methods such as frequencies, precentiles, means, the standard deviations, Crobach's a coefficient, one-way ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis using SPSS statistics program. The major findings of this study were as follows. The pro-environmental consumption consciousness of the university students is the most important factor of doing resource saving behavior. The university students are the group that is going to take responsibility for a national economy and future society. Therefore, it is very important to educate them for establishing the rational consciousness of consumption in order to improve their consumption behavior and skills, because the consciousness formed in this period leads to the propensity to consume when they become adults.
