Sustainability and Competition
Sustainability has been on the agenda of international organisations, states and, increasingly, private businesses for some time. From a competition agency perspective, regulation to achieve sustainability might be the preferred option. Yet, business action might equally affect sustainability and competition and competition laws are crucial considerations for businesses.

Sustainable Procurement Guide
Introduction
The Australian Government is committed to transforming Australia’s waste into a resource, where most goods and services can be continually used, reused, recycled, and reprocessed as part of a circular economy (refer to Figure 1). This requires changes to be made to all stages of the supply chain, from product design to disposal. However, without stable demand, there is little incentive for the investment in innovation or infrastructure needed to effect these changes. Sustainable procurement helps build a circular economy, aiming to reduce adverse social, environmental, and economic impacts of purchased goods and services throughout their life. This includes considerations such as waste disposal and the cost of operations and maintenance over the life of the goods and services. Australian Government officials need to consider these impacts when making procurement decisions in line with our obligation to spend public money efficiently, effectively, economically, and ethically. As a key principle of the National Waste Policy, the Australian Government has committed to considering environmental sustainability when purchasing goods and services. Under Target 4 of the National Waste Policy Action Plan, all levels of government and industry have committed to significantly increasing their use of recycled content. The Australian Government has committed to using its purchasing power to help build demand and markets for products containing recycled content. This can be achieved through embedding sustainability in contracts where there is an opportunity for recycled content (particularly glass, paper, tires, and plastics) to be procured.

Sustainability
Abstract: Sustainability as a policy concept has its origin in the Brundtland Report of 1987. That document was concerned with the tension between the aspirations of mankind towards a better life on the one hand and the limitations imposed by nature on the other hand. In the course of time, the concept has been re-interpreted as encompassing three dimensions, namely social, economic and environmental.

Implementing the Water–Energy–Food–Ecosystems Nexus and Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals
This document brings together a number of contributions, case studies, and experiences with the aim of highlighting the importance and benefits of the WEFE Nexus as an approach and methodology for development cooperation in general. It makes special reference to the main conclusions of the WEFE Nexus specific workshop held in Brussels jointly organized by JRC and INTPA and held on 25–26 January 2018. The workshop was oriented towards implementing and operationalizing the Nexus approach with the objective of improving the sustainability of the intervention projects and programmes based on the experience of the Nexus experts in a variety of projects and regions. This document should be read as a practical guide to fully understand key aspects of WEFE Nexus and is presented in non-technical language for ease of access and uptake for a wider audience.

Making The Right Choices For Your Utility: Using Sustainability Criteria For Water Infrastructure Decision Making
Introduction and Purpose of This Guide
Having the capacity to compare a range of infrastructure alternatives objectively is critical to a water or wastewater utility’s long-term sustainability and its ability to serve the needs of its community. This guide is designed to help water and wastewater utilities undertake these critical comparisons, in the context of meeting their existing regulatory requirements and improving the sustainability of utility operations.
This document is designed to supplement the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Planning for Sustainability: A Handbook for Water and Wastewater Utilities (“the Handbook”), issued in February 2012. The Handbook identifies a number of steps utilities can take to incorporate sustainability considerations into their existing planning processes, organized around four core elements of planning
commonly used by utilities:
• PLANNING ELEMENT 1: Goal Setting – Establish sustainability goals that reflect utility and community priorities.
• PLANNING ELEMENT 2: Objectives and Strategies – Establish objectives and strategies for each sustainability goal.
• PLANNING ELEMENT 3: Alternatives Analysis – Analyze a range of alternatives based on consistent criteria.
• PLANNING ELEMENT 4: Financial Strategy – Ensure that investments are sufficiently funded, operated, maintained, and replaced over time.
