Original Abstract

The population in Asia is estimated to rise to 5.3 × 109 by 2050 according to the United Nations, and the economy is expected to triple in size by 2040. Asian countries will be the key players in contributing to environmental footprints mitigation, which includes the GHG emissions. This role presents both opportunities and challenges in decoupling the emissions from the nations’ rate of development. Assessment, optimisation and process design to drive the low GHG emissions development—e.g. renewable energy, waste as resources, cleaner production, policy and regulation, are receiving high research attention recently. Measures towards sustainability require continuous consensus building and involvement of various stakeholders at local and international levels. International conferences serve as one the platforms to address these issues.
