Hoćemo li zbog standarda zaštite okoliša EU morati zatvoriti koju tvornicu?

Temeljem osnovnog propisa - Direktive Vijeća 96/61/EZ od 24. 09. 1996. godine u vezi s integriranim sprečavanjem i nadzorom onečišćenja (IPPC direktiva), tvornice će se morati prilagoditi europskim standardima i dobiti integriranu okolišnu dozvolu (IPPC dozvola). Kako su potrebna velika financijska sredstva za prilagodbu i poštivanje standarda zaštite okoliša, postoji mogućnost da određeni proizvodni pogoni to neće moći postići pa bi ih, u tom slučaju, trebalo zatvoriti.

Kako će za tehnološku prilagodbu biti potrebno uložiti velika financijska sredstva, to će se isplativost investicije u svaki takav proizvodni kapacitet (tvornicu) razmatrati zasebno, uzimajući u obzir zaštitu okoliša, ekonomske i socijalne čimbenike. Postoji mogućnost da tvornice za koje se ocijeni da u njih nije isplativo ulaganje budu zatvorene.

Uz moju donju napomenu na prijevod 'ekološki standardi' samo bih ovdje još jednom navela objašnjenje pojma 'ecology', a zatim 'environment', jer mislim da se to odnosi na različite stvari:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecology
Ecology (from Greek: οίκος, oikos, "household"; and λόγος, logos, "knowledge") is the scientific study of the distribution and abundance of life and the interactions between organisms and their environment. The environment of an organism includes physical properties, which can be described as the sum of local abiotic factors such as insolation (sunlight), climate, and geology, and biotic factors, which are other organisms that share its habitat.
The word "ecology" is often used more loosely in such terms as social ecology and deep ecology and in common parlance as a synonym for the natural environment or environmentalism. Likewise "ecologic" or "ecological" is often taken in the sense of environmentally friendly.
The term ecology or oekologie was coined by the German biologist Ernst Haeckel in 1866, when he defined it as "the comprehensive science of the relationship of the organism to the environment."[1] Haeckel did not elaborate on the concept, and the first significant textbook on the subject (together with the first university course) was written by the Danish botanist, Eugenius Warming. For this early work, Warming is often identified as the founder of ecology.[2]
