There can be no two views that ecology in economic and industrial sectors has to be viewed globally. It must be borne in mind that most of the highly polluting industries in the developing countries are based on technology imported from Western industrialized countries. They made their own surroundings cleaner and safer by dumping these technologies to others. Even today, export of dirty technologies continues and even World Bank experts have, now and then, connived at it.
At the summit in Rio, let the industrialized countries make a solemn declaration that they will, henceforth, not permit export to developing countries of pollution -intensive technologies. This would have a salutary effect on arousing a sense of ethical responsibility in the global economic thinking.
For industrialists, it is necessary to evolve a new global standard of "ECOLOGICAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT" and the TQM (Total Quality Management) concept must necessarily include ecological angle also. Ecology must become an inseparable part of industrial planning, and industrial areas and belts must become green areas. Urgent preventive and corrective measures are required to eliminate industrial pollution of air, water, toxic gases, chemical, dumps and garbage and industrial waste.
Industrialized countries must show the way and take the lead. Advanced countries have caused most environmental damage that has caused global impact. They drive most of the cars, which burn petrol (gas) and send carbon dioxide into the atmosphere where it contributes to global warming. Most consumer goods are produced by industries to which burn fossils fuels (Coal & Oil). These chemicals falls back on earth as 'acid rain' killing tress, spoiling land and harming all living beings. Excessive use of chlorofluorocarbons has led to the depletion of the Ozone layer
