Natural resources management has two principal dimensions:
- Science-illuminated (earth, space, hydrological, pedological,
information, etc. sciences) management of local resources (waters,
soils, bioresources, minerals, rocks, sediments, etc.) in an
ecologically-sustainable manner, and
- Value-addition through processing of natural products, through
the application of technology is most marked in the case of some
mineral products.
The wellness of a community is dependent upon the security of
food, water, environment and energy. Such a security is best
realised through science-illuminated (earth, space, hydrological,
pedological, information) management of local resources (waters,
soils, bioresources, minerals, rocks, sediments, etc.) in an
ecologically-sustainable and people-participatory manner, plus
value-addition through processing of natural products. Moreover,
the addition of value may increase a community s wealth by advanced
technologies, trading, exchange of knowledge, etc. Moreover,
activities, employment and many other things come along with the
availability of natural resources, which will require and affect
policy.
This volume provides guidelines for the implementation of
technological, economical and policy advances in dealing with
various aspects of natural resources. It is intended for
researchers, professionals and students in environmental and earth
sciences, mining, geography, sociology, economics and for policy
makers and investors searching for potential in the natural
resources industry. Ideal for consultation in combination with the
editor's related publications Green Energy: Technology, Economics
and Policy, Energy Portfolios and Food and Water Security.
