Description

This study provides an insight into the key Mega Trends regarding the environmental sector in Asia-Pacific. Global Mega Trends, such as urbanization and economic and technological development, are changing the demographics and financial outlook in Asia-Pacific, and these will in turn shape the region’s environmental sector. The macro implications examined in this study are broadly described as water scarcity, waste generation, and air pollution. In the long term, these trends will create opportunities in the environmental sector such as environmental equipment and services, eco business, and alternative energy and water. These are micro implications that encompass areas such as green jobs, carbon economy, waste-to-energy, and others.
