Using specific case studies, this report considers the application of analytic and scientific tools, methods, and approaches presented in the 2011 NRC report Sustainability and the U.S. EPA. This report examines both currently available and emerging tools, methods, and approaches to find those most appropriate for assessing and/or evaluating potential economic, social and environmental outcomes within an EPA decision context. Sustainability Concepts in Decision Making also discusses data needs and post-decision evaluation of outcomes on dimensions of sustainability. A broad array of sustainability tools and approaches are suitable for assessing potential environmental, social, and economic outcomes in EPA's decision-making context."--Publisher's description. 606 $aSustainability$zUnited States$xDecision making 606 $aEnvironmental protection$zUnited States$xDecision making 615 0$aSustainability$xDecision making. 615 0$aEnvironmental protection$xDecision making. 676 $a353.0082321 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Scientific Tools and Approaches for Sustainability. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bBoard on Environmental Studies and Toxicology. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bScience and Technology for Sustainability Program Policy and Global Affairs Division. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828085603321 996 $aSustainability concepts in decision-making$93985209 997 $aUNINA
