Environmental Impact Assessment

---

Environmental impact assessment (EIA) is a widely used tool for assessing the environmental implications of projects, policies and plans. It is also an integral part of the decision-making processes involving environmental issues. With the growing importance of environmental protection and an awareness of pursuing sustainable development, applying EIA techniques has become more important and compelling. We will start this free courseware module by introducing some of the current environmental issues facing Hong Kong, China and the world as a whole. Following on from this, we will introduce the concept of sustainable development. These background issues illustrate why environmental impact assessments are necessary in the first place, and what role they play in sustainable development.
