Abstract

This examination presents a unique fusion of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodologies, aimed at cultivating a Toyyib environment. This concept, embedded in Islamic ethical principles, refers to an ecologically pure and morally sound setting. The paper focuses on sustainable practices in managing natural elements such as air, water, and soil. EIA is highlighted as an essential tool for preliminary project analysis, covering environmental, social, and economic factors, whereas LCA is utilized to gauge the environmental effects over the entire lifespan of products or services. A thorough analysis is conducted on the collaborative potential of EIA and LCA, showcasing their ability to offer a more all-encompassing and sustainable strategy for environmental decision-making. This integrative approach effectively merges the immediate, localized impact assessments provided by EIA with the broader, lifecycle impact evaluations offered by LCA. The paper also addresses the intricacies involved in combining these two approaches, particularly the challenges related to aligning data and methodologies. The chapter emphasizes the significance of this amalgamated EIA and LCA approach in achieving a Toyyib environment. It stresses the importance of overcoming present integration challenges, proposes in-depth case studies for empirical understanding, and highlights the role of cutting-edge technologies in refining these methodologies. It also advocates that this integrated approach, deeply rooted in Islamic ethical values, is pivotal for realizing global environmental sustainability objectives while maintaining ethical and ecological integrity.
