摘要:This issue of the Journal of Transdisciplinary Environmental Studies contains three articles that from di.erent angles re.ect on the linkages between environmental performance and policy design or implementation. In the article "Cadmium Flows in Recycling Waste to Agriculture in Thailand", Nanette L. Schouw and Jens Christian Tjell analyse the potential risk of substituting urban waste for phosphorus fertilisers in agriculture in Southern Thailand. On the basis of three case studies of the mass .ow of cadmium, the authors discuss the findings and compare them to international threshold limits for waste application to agriculture. In the concluding remark the authors judge that the quality of the urban wastes is well above that which is acceptable and thus will not pose a risk and contaminate crops with toxic cadmium.
