Design + Environment has been specifically written to address this paucity. The book first provides background information to help the reader understand how and why design for environment (DfE) has become so critical to design, with reference to some of the most influential writers, designers and companies in the field. Next, Design + Environment provides a step-by-step approach on how to approach DfE: to design a product that meets requirements for quality, cost, manufacturability and consumer appeal, while at the same time minimising environmental impacts. The first step in the process is to undertake an assessment of environmental impacts, using life-cycle assessment (LCA) or one of the many simpler tools available to help the designer. From then on, DfE becomes an integral part of the normal design process, including the development of concepts, design of prototypes, final design and development of marketing strategies. Environmental assessment tools and strategies to reduce environmental impacts, such as the selection of appropriate materials, are then discussed. Next, some of the links between environmental problems, such as global warming, ozone depletion, water and air pollution and the everyday products we consume are considered. In order to design products with minimal environmental impact, we need to have a basic understanding of these impacts and the interactions between them. The four subsequent chapters provide more detailed strategies and case studies for particular product groups: packaging, textiles, furniture, and electrical and electronic products. Guidelines are provided for each of the critical stages of a product's life, from the selection of raw materials through to strategies for recovery and recycling. Finally, Design + Environment takes a look at some of the emerging trends in DfE that are offering us the opportunity to make a more significant reduction in environmental impacts. Both the development of more sustainable materials and technologies and the growing interest in leasing rather than selling products are examined. Design + Environment is organized as a workbook rather than an academic text. It should be read once, and then used as a key reference source. This clear and informative book will prove to be invaluable to practising designers, to course directors and their students in need of a core teaching and reference text and to all those interested in learning about the tools and trends influencing green product design. The authors have all been involved in an innovative demonstration programme called "EcoReDesign", which was developed by the Centre for Design at RMIT University with funding from the Australian government. The Centre successfully collaborated with Australian companies to improve the environmental performance of their products by following DfE principles."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aGreen products$xDesign 615 0$aGreen products$xDesign. 676 $a658.5/752 700 $aLewis$b Helen$0613029 701 $aGertsakis$b John$01540643 701 $aGrant$b Tim$0790041 701 $aMorelli$b Nicola$0985114 701 $aSweatman$b Andrew$01540644 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779656103321 996 $aDesign + Environment$93792417 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04171nam 2201105z- 450 001 9910688448303321 005 20231214133049.0 035 $a(CKB)5400000000042732 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/58394.3 035 $a(Perlego)1457748 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000042732 100 $a20200612d2016 uy | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aReview of Invertebrate Biological Control Agents Introduced into Europe 210 $aUK $cCABI$d2016 215 $a1 electronic resource (194 p.) 311 08$a9781786390813 311 08$a1786390817 330 $aThis review provides an overview of all documented releases of exotic (non-European) invertebrate biological control agents (IBCAs) into the environment in Europe and summarizes key information on the target species as well as on the biological control agent released. It is an update of A Review of Biological Control in Western and Southern Europe edited by Greathead (1976) and covers the period from 1897, when the beetle Rodolia cardinalis was introduced into Portugal against the invasive cottony cushion scale, Icerya purchasi, until the end of 2009. This review is based largely on the BIOCAT database (Greathead and Greathead 1992), which contains records of the introduction of insect natural enemies, namely parasitoids and predators, for the control of insect pests worldwide. This review may not provide the complete list of BC agents introduced into Europe. Nevertheless, the report includes a vast majority of the introductions, and hence provides a representative picture of the history of releases of exotic BC agents into the environment in Europe. 606 $aPest control$2bicssc 606 $aInsects (entomology)$2bicssc 606 $aAgricultural science$2bicssc 610 $abiological control agents 610 $ainvasives 610 $anonindigenous species 610 $aRodolia 610 $aColeoptera 610 $aarthropods 610 $aPortugal 610 $areviews 610 $aexotic species 610 $acottony-cushion scale 610 $aIcerya 610 $aanimals 610 $apest control 610 $ainsect pests 610 $aCommunity of Portuguese Language Countries 610 $ainvasive organisms 610 $aeukaryotes 610 $adatabases 610 $anonindigenous organisms 610 $aEurope 610 $aRodolia cardinalis 610 $aplant pests 610 $abiocontrol agents 610 $abiological control 610 $aCoccoidea 610 $ainsects 610 $anon-native species 610 $ainvasive alien species 610 $aCoccinellidae 610 $ainsect control 610 $aSouthern Europe 610 $aparasitoids 610 $aMediterranean Region 610 $apest insects 610 $anon-indigenous species 610 $anon-native organisms 610 $apests 610 $aIcerya purchasi 610 $adata banks 610 $aOECD Countries 610 $abiocontrol 610 $apest arthropods 610 $aHemiptera 610 $aEuropean Union Countries 610 $apredators 610 $aintroduced organisms 610 $aMonophlebidae 610 $ainvasive species 610 $anatural enemies 610 $aDeveloped Countries 610 $abiological control organisms 610 $aexotic organisms 610 $aarthropod pests 610 $aparasites 610 $aHexapoda 610 $ainvertebrates 610 $aalien invasive species 610 $aintroduced species 610 $aSternorrhyncha 610 $anon-indigenous organisms 615 7$aPest control 615 7$aInsects (entomology) 615 7$aAgricultural science 700 $aSchaffner$b Urs$4auth$01351681 702 $aGerber$b Esther$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910688448303321 996 $aReview of Invertebrate Biological Control Agents Introduced into Europe$93127348 997 $aUNINA
