ASINYO 3 1 Key Laboratory of Eco-Textiles, Jiangnan University, Ministry of Education, Wuxi, Jiangsu, China 1, 2, 3 Department of Industrial Art (Textiles), Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, PMB - Kumasi, Ghana ABSTRACT Inkjet inks are the most important component in inkjet printing. The formulation and chemistry of inks determine the printing quality as well as jetting characteristics. Digital printing technology has transformed textiles printing with significant success in terms of print speed, print head technology and color gamut. Nonetheless, ink penetration and its related quality problems are still receiving a high level of attention by researchers around the globe to develop superior inks that can surpass the quality of prints obtained by the conventional methods of printing. This review seeks to take a perfunctory look at the various ink chemistries being developed to address the color related problems in digital textiles inkjet printing and the various pretreatment technologies available for ensuring excellent K/S and color fastness as well as jetting behavior of Newtonian inkjet inks in DOD drop formation. In addition, various issues relating to quality of digital inkjet printer fabrics and ink development have been highlighted. Significant strides have been made in the quest for environmentally friendly universal inks that can print all textiles substrate. KEYWORDS: Inkjet Ink, Dye, Pigment, Digital Printing, Textile INTRODUCTION Inkjet printing has become the new frontier in textile printing, offering advantages in process efficiency, ease of use, cost effectiveness and environmental impact (Pekarovicova 2016a, Magdassi 2010).

Postal 653 91000 Xalapa, Ver., MEXICO tel.: ++52 (28) 14-96-11 fax: ++52 (28) 19-15-15 e-mail: [email protected] SUMMARY This “Footprints of Nations” report compares the ecological impact of 52 large nations, inhabited by 80 percent of the world population. It also shows to what extent their consumption can be supported by their local ecological capacity. One key finding is that today, humanity as a whole uses over one third more resources and eco-services than what nature can regenerate. In 1992, this ecological deficit was only one quarter. After introducing the rationale and assessment method for this study, the report explains how such biophysical analyses can help build a sustainable future. A computer diskette is included in this report. It contains the data and the calculations for the ecological footprints for each country. THIS “RIO+5 FORUM” STUDY WAS COMMISSIONED AND FINANCED BY THE EARTH COUNCIL, COSTA RICA.1 1 ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINTS OF NATIONS Why measure our use of nature?

Community-based conservation and traditional ecological knowledge: implications for social-ecological resilience. Ecology and Society 18(4):12. http://dx.doi. org/10.5751/ES-05867-180412 Research, part of a Special Feature on Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Global Environmental Change: North and South Perspectives Community-Based Conservation and Traditional Ecological Knowledge: Implications for Social-Ecological Resilience Isabel Ruiz-Mallén 1 and Esteve Corbera 1,2 ABSTRACT. Our review highlights how traditional ecological knowledge influences people's adaptive capacity to social- ecological change and identifies a set of mechanisms that contribute to such capacity in the context of community-based biodiversity conservation initiatives. Twenty-three publications, including twenty-nine case studies, were reviewed with the aim of investigating how local knowledge, community-based conservation, and resilience interrelate in social-ecological systems. We highlight that such relationships have not been systematically addressed in regions where a great number of community conservation initiatives are found; and we identify a set of factors that foster people's adaptive capacity to social-ecological change and a number of social processes that, in contrast, undermine such capacity and the overall resilience of the social- ecological system. We suggest that there is a need to further investigate how climate variability and other events affect the joint evolution of conservation outcomes and traditional ecological knowledge, and there is a need to expand the current focus on social factors to explain changes in traditional ecological knowledge and adaptive capacity towards a broader approach that pays attention to ecosystem dynamics and environmental change.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: for the END IS a LIMIT
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: FOR THE END IS A LIMIT: THE QUESTION CONCERNING THE ENVIRONMENT Ozguc Orhan, Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Dissertation Directed By: Professor Charles E. Butterworth Department of Government and Politics Professor Ken Conca Department of Government and Politics This dissertation argues that Aristotle’s philosophy of praxis (i.e., ethics and politics) can contribute to our understanding of the contemporary question concerning the environment. Thinking seriously about the environment today calls for resisting the temptation to jump to conclusions about Aristotle’s irrelevance to the environment on historicist grounds of incommensurability or the fact that Aristotle did not write specifically on environmental issues as we know them. It is true that environmental problems are basically twentieth-century phenomena, but the larger normative discourses in which the terms “environmental” and “ecological” and their cognates are situated should be approached philosophically, namely, as cross-cultural and trans-historical phenomena that touch human experience at a deeper level. The philosophical perspective exploring the discursive meaning behind contemporary environmental praxis can reveal to us that certain aspects of Aristotle’s thought are relevant, or can be adapted, to the ends of environmentalists concerned with developmental problems. I argue that Aristotle’s views are already accepted and adopted in political theory and the praxis of the environment in many respects. In the first half of the dissertation, I

  • The U.S. Environmental Movement Robert J. Brulle Drexel University
    The U.S. Environmental Movement Robert J. Brulle Drexel University Abstract The U.S. environmental movement is perhaps the largest, most long lived, and complex social movement in the U.S. To understand this movement from a sociological viewpoint requires an analysis of the different belief systems or “discursive frames” that define the different communities that make up this movement. This paper starts with a description of these discursive frames. Using this perspective, it then describes the historical development of the different communities, and their relative levels of economic resource mobilization. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The U.S. environmental movement is perhaps the single largest social movement in the United States. With over 6,500 national and 20,000 local environmental organizations, along with an estimated 20-30 million members, this movement dwarfs other modern social movements such as the civil rights or peace movements. It is also the longest running social movement. The first local environmental organizations were founded before the Civil War and several still existing national environmental organizations, such as the Sierra Club, the National Audubon Society, and American Forests, were founded in the late 19th century. The question facing social scientists is how can we understand and examine this enormously complex social movement? There are three commonly used approaches. First, sociologists examine the belief systems that define the various components of this social movement, which is termed Discourse Analysis. Secondly, the development of the social movement over time is examined using Historical Analysis. Finally, the techniques used to garner financial resources for the organization is examined through the perspective of Resource Mobilization Analysis.
