Modulation of events characteristic of carcinogenesis or of cancer cells is being emphasized as a rational strategy to combat cancer. This is achieved through chemoprevention by a variety of agents. Phenolic compounds, particularly polyphenols, have been shown to be highly active in this regard. Certain cellular and molecular events relevant to carcinogenesis are modified by polyphenols. The present investigation has been carried out to examine some of these aspects.(omitted)

Humans have a long history of asbestos use. There are reports from the Roman era, of asbestos victims among the slaves who worked in asbestos mines. The fact that asbestos can induce lung cancer and mesothelioma was verified epidemiologically in the 1960s. Asbestos related diseases are predominantly occupational in nature but can be caused by environmental exposure. Environmental mesothelioma is mainly associated with tremolite asbestos and this information comes from many countries including Turkey, Greece, Corsica, New Caledonia and Cyprus. In 1993, the first case of mesothelioma in Korea was reported in an asbestos textile worker. Recently, some asbestos disease victims who lived near an asbestos factory have their cases before the courts. A series of recent asbestos-related events in Korea, for example, the shocking revelation of asbestos containing talc in baby powders have caused the general public to become aware of the health risks of asbestos exposure. Asbestos related diseases are characterized by a long latency period, especially, mesothelioma which has no threshold of safety. Hence the best strategy for preventing asbestos related diseases is to decrease asbestos exposure levels to as low as possible.

A current environmental issue, 'Enviromentally Sound and Sustainable Development(ESSD)' is very important in that it is for our common future. Environmental education is essential as a long-term strategy to realize sustainable environments and society. So we developed a new program about ESSD. The purposes of development were as follows. First, introduce ESSD to students, second, make them know ESSD appropriate to our nation, third, make change from economy-centered thoughts to environmental economy-centered thoughts, ultimately make form behaviors related to ESSD. To verify the effects of new developed program, the direct learning was carried out by 212 students in total. Post test scores of experimental groups were significantly higher than those of control groups about four goals, respectively. Therefore this program is effective to achieve four goals of environmental education for ESSD.

This research examined consumption-based carbon emission reduction by nuclear energy consumption and environmental tax while considering the context of trade globalization in the highest five emitter nations from 1990 to 2020. This study used various empirical methodologies, including preliminary analysis to check the stationarity and cointegration, the CS-ARDL for long-run analysis, CCEMG, AMG for robustness, and the D-H causality test for short-term pairwise causation. The results indicated that nuclear energy consumption, environmental tax, and trade globalization help to mitigate consumption-based carbon emissions while economic growth and population density boost carbon emissions. Furthermore, the results also found two-way casual connection exists between nuclear energy consumption, population density, and consumption-based carbon emissions. Thus, the results emphasize the need for government policies that encourage nuclear energy and environmental tax as a strategy to reduce carbon emissions and achieve and maintain environmental development.

This study was initiated to understand what students know, how they feel, and how they act in the perspectives of environmental literacy. This study takes it a very serious problem that there has been no data about Korean students’status of environmental literacy so far. Based on the correct diagnosis of Korean students’ environmental literacy, environmental education in Korea, including national curriculum, teaching materials and strategy, would take the right way. This study accepts Simmon (1995)’s framework of environmental literacy, consisting of 5 areas, environmental knowledge, skills, affect, and behavior, which is consistent with general goals of environmental education. This study analyzed the relationship between areas in environmental literacy and factors contributing to improving students’ environmental literacy. This study also checked which factors, including age, gender, parents’ schooling, environmental education in schools, and students’ science-related attributes, contributed to improving students’ environmental literacy. The results of this study will help science educators keep in mind how important it is to teach science from the perspectives of environmental literacy.

영국은 1990년대, 특히 신노동당 정부 이후 지속가능발전 또는 탄소규제를 국가 발전의 핵심 전략으로 추진해 왔다. '정부를 녹색화'하고자 하는 이러한 영국 환경정책과 더불어 실제 에너지환경지표의 가시적 성과는 '저탄소 녹색성장'을 추구하고자 하는 우리나라의 정책 입안가 및 연구자들의 주목을 끌었다. 이 논문은 이러한 영국의 탄소규제 전략과 환경정책의 특성을 단순히 정책적 통합화 또는 주류화를 넘어서 새로운 국가발전 전략, 즉 '생태적으로 근대화된' 국가, '생태국가' 또는 '녹색국가' 전략으로 규정하고자 한다. 즉 최근 영국은 탄소규제를 국가 정책의 통합적 원칙으로 설정하는 한편 주로 시장-의존적 신자유주의에 바탕을 두고 국가 전체를 동원하는 녹색국가 전략을 추진하고 있는 것으로 이해된다. 이러한 점에서 이 논문은 영국의 탄소규제 관련 환경정책의 전개과정을 서술한 후, 탄소규제를 녹색국가 발전을 위한 새로운 원칙이며, 실제 중앙정부 부처들과 지자체들을 통합하기 위한 거버넌스 구축의 바탕이지만, 신자유주의에 포섭된 것으로 재평가하고자 한다. 또한 이 논문은 영국의 이러한 녹색국가 전략의 직 간접적 성과라고 할 수 있는 최근 에너지 환경지표의 동향을 분석하고, 경험적 재평가로서 영국의 에너지 수입의존도 증대, 에너지 혼합에서 석탄 비중의 증가, 전력 생산의 민영화, 재생가능에너지 생산의 한계, 그리고 에너지 이용 및 온실가스 배출의 공간적 불평등 등을 지적하고자 한다.

The objective of this study was to introduce the current status and development strategy for the environmental restoration of stream side in Japan, and to consider the methodology which could be effectively applied to the environmental restoration of stream side in Korea. 1. We should establish a new paradigm of forest conservation and erosion control which can emphasize the restoration of the stream side ecosystem and reduce soil movement in the areas. Also, in the past, the objective of forest conservation and erosion control was to fix soil by constructing permanent structures. The direction of future forest conservation and erosion control needs to be new forest conservation and erosion control technology to prevent large scale soil movement but allow small scale soil movement to conserve sound ecosystem and biotic habitats. 2. In the past, the goal of forest conservation and erosion control planning was to fix the amount of soil movement by constructing permanent facilities. Forest conservation and erosion control planning in the future needs to change the techniques which could prevent soil movement from large scale of soil disasters, but allow soil movement effectively to a small and middle scale's soil movement. Also, it is considered to change erosion control dams from non passing type to passing type. 3. In the point of ecological conservation aspects, we should evaluate the effects of new forest conservation and erosion control methods which are emphasized on the restoration of the stream side ecosystem. Also, forest conservation and erosion control construction projects for restoring stream and river ecosystem should be planned for perfectly restorating their ecosystems by the way of sustainable maintenance and management. 4. The restoration direction of stream and river ecosystems needs to be restoring the diversity of small geographies such as waterway, shoal and puddles rather than flattening stream bed. And the restoration of the stream side ecosystem should provide continuity of the stream side environment which allows desirable biological habitats, and environmentally sound facilities to harmonize with the environment.

This paper examined the supply chain management Integration factors and evironmental performance in Korean industry. As SCM got evolved, the importance of Socially and Environmentally Responsible Supply Chain among the Supply Chain members are increased. we should consider the following critical factors such as SCM Integration, environmental practice, SCM performance and environmental performance. The purpose of this study is to focus on linkage between conventional SCM factors with new environmental factors to clarify the critical factor for the SCM firms who may concerns about environmental performance. Based on the analysis of sixty-two cases, the following results were found. First, SCM Integration factors of supply chain management have a positively significant influence on SCM performance and environmental performance of supply chain management. Second, SCM performance have a positively significant influent on environmental performance. Third, environmental practice factors of supply chain management have a positively significant influence on SCM performance but not significant influence on environmental performance. This study suggests that with high level of Integration and environmental practice, firms may have good result on SCM performance and environmental performance. Especially, our empirical evidence shows that environmental practices without good SCM performance, may not have good result on environmental performance.

This study was aimed to find out ancestral environmental protection wisdom in their life style, and to teach environmental education applying its results in primary school. A dissertation survey was conducted to analyze environmental protection eco-wisdom, environmental education about traditional culture, application of indigenous knowledge in ancestral traditional culture for environmental education in the primary school, and Korean traditional culture presented in 5th grade subject courses of the 7th school curricula. In addition, a environmental education program was developed by applying wisdom of traditional life style and the strategy of environmental education utilizing the results from the above data in primary school was explored. It was found that students understand the value of environment education and are more interested in the ancestral life style, environmental protection wisdom from traditional culture. Also, students understand the ancestral thinking in environment, the wisdom of old Korean, and the importance of echo-wisdom related on traditional culture. Based on above results, the suggestions of this study are made as follows. First, by searching for more wisdom from traditional culture vigorously, it is needed that developing more teaching text combined environmental education with traditional culture through other curriculums. In addition, for this kind of teaching being used efficiently in another schools, the place and environmental teaching aid is needed.
