Socioeconomic and communication tools to enhance environmental security: a case study in Egypt

Nermine Zohdi

Who would have thought ten or fifteen years ago that one day it would be possible to earn a living from ecology? Who could have predicted the emergence of a whole new sector of the economy producing goods and services whose purpose is to reduce the environmental impact of industry, both large-scale and small-scale, farming, household and state infrastructure? The contributions in this book show that today a number of markets exist which respond to the demand for such goods and services. What we are talking about here is ecobusiness. The existence of the companies which supply these markets is based on the growing demand for technology and expertise which is dictated in turn by the ever-expanding and increasingly exigent body of environmental legislation. Furthermore, these new ecobusiness companies have effectively become the partners of the state in that through their research and development they advance the status of anti-pollution technologies which enable the legislature to raise its standards successively. Thus, it is in the interest of ecobusiness that the state compel industry, farmers, households and the state actors responsible for the construction and maintenance of public infrastructure to exploit its products and consultancy services to the full. This prompts the following questions with respect to the relationship between state services and companies involved in ecobusiness: who controls whom and is using whom?
