  1. Study on Agriculture Decision-Makers Behavior on Sustainable Energy Utilization.Josef Maroušek - 2013 - Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Ethics 26 (3):679-689.
    Phytomass cultivation for energy use is increasingly popular in Europe for high profits guaranteed by subsidy. Although public interest in ecology is on an increasing level, direct combustion is still preferred even though scholars have been warning about formations of hazardous compounds for a long-time. However, the reduction of subsidies would negatively affect an already bad situation in Czech agriculture, since most farmers became fully dependent on subsidies due to quotas, restrictions, and other unequal business conditions in European Union. It (...)

  • The Relevance of Social Theory in the Practice of Environmental Management.Richard Meissner - 2016 - Science and Engineering Ethics 22 (5):1345-1360.
    In this paper I argue that the dominance of certain paradigms and theories on policies can have an influence on the value added by impact assessments. A link exists between paradigms and theories and policies and consequently the practices humans develop to tackle real world problems. I also argue that different types of thinking (contained in paradigms and theories) need to be integrated, at least at the scientific level, to enhance our understanding of social phenomena. This in turn can have (...)

  • Holistic Assessment and Ethical Disputation on a New Trend in Solid Biofuels.Simona Hašková - 2017 - Science and Engineering Ethics 23 (2):509-519.
    A new trend in the production technology of solid biof uels has appeared. There is a wide consensus that most solid biofuels will be produced according to the new production methods within a few years. Numerous samples were manufactured from agro-residues according to conventional methods as well as new methods. Robust analyses that reviewed the hygienic, environmental, financial and ethical aspects were performed. The hygienic and environmental aspect was assessed by robust chemical and technical analyses. The financial aspect was assessed (...)
