Second International Conference on Environmental and Economic Impact on Sustainable Development Incorporating Environmental Economics, Toxicology and Brownfields, Ancona, Italy

The Second International Conference on Environmental and Economic Impacts on Sustainable Development Incorporating Environmental Economics, Toxicology and Brownfields will take place from 14 to 16 May 2014 in Ancona, Italy.

Uncontrolled development can result in damage to the environment in terms of release of toxic substances and hazardous waste. The increasing number of new chemical compounds poses a major challenge to the environment as it is, in many cases, difficult to predict their effects and make the appropriate decisions. Their economic impact can be particularly challenging.

The conference will discuss methods to assess the impact of economic constraints on the environment, considering social aspects as well as any resulting environmental damage. The overuse of natural resources and the resulting pollution of the environment need to be better understood from a financial perspective.For further information, please visit:
