National regional natural resources, still rather well preserved social capital (social connectedness, still existing solidarity), and educated people are the principal pillars of sustainable development of Slovenia and all its regions. A balanced regional development, decentralization, and exceptional potentials for a safe level of self-reliance in the strategically vital commodities (food, water, wood, and regional varieties of renewable energy resources, abundant ecosystem services, and biotic diversity) are the supporting pillars of sustainable economic development and the related national security. In view of our own natural resources, the core of Slovenian innovative, sustainable development-environmental breakthrough with about 50,000–60,000 new green jobs by the year 2030 should be as follows: • wood processing: 20,000–30,000 new jobs; • stabilization of and the quickest possible increase in farming lands; a rise in general food self-reliance from 50–60% to 80%; and a greater role of work-intensive sustainable farming, eco-farming in particular: at least 20,000 new jobs; • systematic energy-efficient retrofitting of public and private buildings: 7,000–10,000 new jobs; • efficient use of energy and greater use of renewable energy resources: at least 5,000 new jobs, etc.

Concentrations of nitrogen oxides, benzene and black carbon in years 2013 and 2014 is an interdisciplinary work of authors from Dept. of Geography at Faculty of Arts of University of Ljubljana, Environment Slovenian Environment Agency and company Aerosol. The book addresses air pollution in Ljubljana with focus on transport air pollution. The method of passive sampling shows interesting spatial characteristics of transport air pollution in different types of urban space and shows shares of transport and other sources of black carbon air pollution. It is important to note that this is already the second book using similar approach in last 8 years, so the book also enables us to get the insight in to transport air pollution trends in Ljubljana in last decade.

Over 30 samples from bedrock and boulders from theVeliki vrh rock avalanche have been collected for surface exposure dating. The limestone rocks have been radiochemically treated to isolate and determine long-lived 36Cl by accelerator mass spectrometry. It could be shown that the Veliki vrh rock avalanche from the Košuta Mountain (Slovenia) event can be very likely linked to one of the major historical earthquakes in Europe happening on the 25th of January 1348. Taken into account independently determined denudation rates, inherited 36Cl originating from pre-exposure at shallow depths (20-55 m) could be calculated. The high amount of inherited 36Cl, i.e. 17-46 % of the total 36Cl, makes this site not suitable for a precise determination of the 36Cl production rate as it was originally anticipated. Veliki vrh is a classic rock avalanche of high velocity. The slope failed in the upper part with a translational slide predominantly along the bedding planes, whereas dynamic fragmentation is the cause for further crushing of the material and the long runout.
