The purposes of this study were to categorize of pro-environmental clothing purchasing and disposal behaviors and to identify impacts of health and environment consciousness on pro-environmental clothing purchase and disposal behaviors. The subjects were homemakers (n=381), and they were segmented into LOHAS group, environment conscious group, unconscious group, and wellbeing group according to their health and environment consciousness. Older homemakers were included in LOHAS group and environment conscious group. And these homemakers performed pro-environmental clothing purchasing and disposal behaviors better than wellbeing group or unconscious group. Health consciousness was positively related with the second-hand clothing purchasing and recycling. Environment consciousness was positively related with clothing made with organic, natural or functional materials, or the second-hand clothing purchasing, and recycling of the second-hand clothing. There was a need to develop continuing education programs to strengthen homemakers' health and environment consciousness, or to upgrade their pro-environmental clothing purchase and disposal behaviors.

Recently, the railway has been growing as the eco-friendly transport which is excellent for reducing carbon dioxide. However, the level of using tools to quantitatively and objectively evaluate the environmental performance is still low in the rail industry. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce Environmental Product Declaration(EPD) which describes the environmental performance by using Life Cycle Assessment(LCA) for evaluating the environmental impacts through entire life cycle of a product. The EPD enables stakeholders including policy makers, operation body, vehicle manufacturers and drivers and consumers to be informed about the superior environmental performance of rail vehicles.

Section 102(2) (c) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 of the United States requires an environmental assessment of the major federal actions that could significantly a-ffect environmental quality. The review is known as the NEPA assessment process, and the resulting document is called an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIS). Article 5 of the En-vironmental Preservation Law of ROK also introduced this system to a cereain extent. The purpose of this paper is, therefore, to review the general impacts of environmental pollution caused by newly proposed actions on air quality, water resources, and land use as well as specific impacts from the disposal of radiation wastes, operation of petroleum and ru-bber industries, construction of highways and dams, location of power plants and industrial co-mplexes, etc., in order to fully understand the importance of this system. Differences between American and Korean system are also briefly studied and reached to a conclusion that this important system should be understood in such a way as to link and uti-lize all conceivable disciplines and human knowledge in order to protect our environment by all means for ourselves and our coming generations as well.

본 연구는 향후 우리나라의 효율적인 관광개발 추진에 있어 객관적이고 종합적인 영향 평가작업의 필요성에 대한 인식으로부터 계획되었으며 관광개발의 영향주체인 지역주민과 관광객 시각에서 관광개발의 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 강원도 원주시 간현지역에서 지역주민과 관광객을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 지역주민들은 관광개발의 결과로 나타난 지역경제의 활성화 분위기는 감지하고 있으나 실질적인 주민고용이나 지역의 경제자립도 향상에 대해서는 부정적인 평가를 하였다. 또한 관광개발로 인해 지역이미지는 크게 개선되었으나 교통혼잡이나 쓰레기 문제와 같은 사회 문화적 영향으로 생활의 불편함도 느끼는 것으로 조사되었다. 특히 환경적 영향은 경제적 영향과 사회$.$문화적 영향에 비해 더 부정적으로 평가하였다. 간현관광지에서 관광객이 느끼는 제반환경에 대한 질적 상태는 비교적 양호한 것으로 나타났으며 전반적인 관광만족도 수준도 비교적 긍정적으로 평가되었다. 위와 같은 조사결과를 토대로 향후 간현지역이 성공적인 관광지로 발전하기 위한 안을 제언하였다. 향후 지역주민과 관광객 시각에서의 심리적 평가와 더불어 관광지의 물리적 영향에 대한 종합적인 연구를 통해 관광개발의 효율성을 높일 수 있는 대안의 제시가 요망된다.

Dam is a barrier constructed to divert, hold water and raise its level for purpose of water supply, irrigation, power generation, flood control, and recreational facilities, etc. Therefore, there are many inevitable environmental impacts on dam construction. We need some better tools to predict the impacts and mitigate measures before and after dam construction. For this purpose I discussed several feasible suggestions and provisions mainly related to environmental impact assessment.

The purposes of this study were to investigate the influence of local residents' nature environment attitudes for National Park development impact perceptions and to examine application possibility of nature environment attitude for resolution information of National Park management conflicts. Thirty items of residents' perceptions and opinions were designed from previous tourism impact studies. The new environmental paradigm(NEP) was used to measure local residents' nature environment attitudes. In April, 2003, 239 questionnaires were obtained from interview survey in local residents' villages near Gyearyongsan National Park. Generally, most of the local residents perceived low economic effects and negative environment impacts for National Park development. Nature environment attitudes levels were significant differences with socioeconomic variables of local residents, specially high in age, education level and influenced their perceptions toward National Park development impacts. The results were suggested that the nature environment attitudes could be provided a useful reverential framework in resolution of National Park management conflicts.

Recently, it has been important not only to evaluate environmental effects but also to assess cumulative and comprehensive effects by the development projects. This paper concentrates on temporal and spatial cumulative impacts on Suji district in Yongin, Gyunggi-do. This paper adopted two methods to assess the cumulative impacts. First, it assesses the temporal change of forest patch size and land cover according to the patch size. Second, it compares housing development zones with the neighborhood. The result of the research appears that the damage is very serious, especially in small forest. The Forest area is changed to farm land, most of them become to built-up area later. In addition, it is assessed that the secondary housing development projects did more harm than the initial one. By assessing the cumulative impacts on Suji district, this research suggests to minimize two kinds of solutions : comprehensive environmental assessments in regional unit and regulation on total forest quantity.

Interest has been growing worldwide in unconventional natural gas that has become an increasingly important source of energy in the world. Unconventional gas development, including shale gas, generally involves a larger environmental impact, compared to conventional gas development, due to its intensity and scale of the operation. There are a growing number of studies on identifying and minimizing the environmental impacts of unconventional gas development. This study aims to examines the current environmental policies and regulatory systems related to the unconventional gas development. The study shows that few environmental regulation exists concerning unconventional gas development, even in the USA where unconventional gas development is most actively pursued. Regulations, however, are being developed based on studies currently underway on health and environmental risks of unconventional gas development and on guidelines designed to reduce the risks. In a world where environmental regulations are ever strengthening, review the environmental regulatory systems and guidelines about unconventional gas need to be established for Korean firms to understand environmental impacts of unconventional gas development they invest or take part in, enabling them to manage and operate gas activities in a way that minimizes environmental damages.
