Environmental Reporting Guidelines for Global Marketplace

Introduction

An increasing number of scientists today recognize that the Earth is now well beyond normal exhibited over the past 500 thousand years, and that human activity causes changes beyond natural climate variability. Scientists called new disciplines such as sustainability science or Earth system governance to address global change. Social sciences play a central role in this respect as they decide how drivers and solutions to global environmental change. Particular progress was made in understanding the emergence, persistence and the impact of international environmental regimes. However, new challenges are emerging rapidly.

One of the key scientific challenge theorise the transformation of global environmental governance and to understand the consequences for global change. Based on the understanding that the context and challenges of developing effective and legitimate environment policies are changing rapidly, policymakers have a pressing need for informed policy recommendations to promote appropriate strategies for responding to global environmental changes and the resulting social and economic consequences. Recent Nobel Peace Prize awarded to retired politician (Al Gore) and the network of scientists (IPCC) is an indication of the environmental management system is undergoing profound changes. However, scientists have only slowly moving their research programs of international cooperation for the broader issue of global governance (Geddes, 1992).

The action begins with the observation that is changing the structure of the global environmental governance. This transformation is characterized by general trends that threaten our standard view that is effective and legitimate, addressing environmental policy and beyond.

The new system of global environmental governance international policy of moving away from the degree of participation of non-State actors. The traditional system of international policy was described as politics among Nations. Non-State actors were either missing or does not have sufficient power to influence proceedings beyond the territorial boundaries (Corley, Shedd, & Moorehead, 1999).

The notion of global environmental governance departed from the traditional public policy by adopting a number of non-State entities, as emerging influential actors at all levels of development of environmental policy. This multi-stakeholder governance includes private actors such as the network of experts, environmentalists and multinational corporations, but new agencies established by Governments, including intergovernmental organizations and international courts. The novel is not just growing, but the ability of non-State actors to participate in the steering of the political system. The Agency, imply the power of individual and collective actors change events or results processes increasingly is sites outside governmental and intergovernmental organizations (Earthscan, 2001).

Short scientific impact action includes increasing the theoretical and empirical knowledge of the current transformation of the global environmental governance, in particular with regard to advance the effectiveness of non-State institutions, the role and importance of non-State actors in global environmental governance and increased density of the rules and regulations outside the State and the potential interaction with international policy at the global level.
