商品描述

This volume in the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology, Second Edition, brings together chapters examining water, energy, minerals and the environment in a holistic approach to land use planning and utilization. The work examines some of the problems, techniques, and solutions for managing resources so that a balance can be maintained between development and the environment. As world population increases, greater demand is placed on finite resources that earth can provide. Geographic areas once judged inadequate or inappropriate for construction, water and wastewater management, or transportation routes, among other activities, are being considered for, and being used, for development.
Topics covered in this volume include impacts of natural disasters such as earthquakes and sinkholes, water and its use, overuse, and role in energy generation, and carbon sequestration. The topics covered here all play a role in development and the potential to sustain a growing world population. Interactions among system components mean that no single aspect can be addressed without including another. Environmental Geology places these different factors into perspective so that scientists, politicians, economists, planners, and stakeholders can work together to develop solutions that provide an acceptable balance between development and the environmental services on which we all depend.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書為《可持續科學與技術百科全書》（第二版）中的一卷，匯集了探討水、能源、礦物及環境的章節，採取整體性的方法來進行土地使用規劃與利用。本書檢視了一些管理資源的問題、技術及解決方案，以便在發展與環境之間維持平衡。隨著世界人口的增加，對地球所能提供的有限資源的需求也在增加。曾經被認為不適合或不充分進行建設、水與廢水管理或交通路線等活動的地理區域，現在正被考慮並用於發展。

本卷涵蓋的主題包括自然災害（如地震和地陷）的影響、水及其使用、過度使用及在能源生成中的角色，以及碳封存。這裡所討論的主題都在發展中扮演著角色，並對維持日益增長的世界人口具有潛力。系統組件之間的相互作用意味著，無法單獨解決某一方面而不涉及其他方面。《環境地質學》將這些不同因素放在適當的視角中，使科學家、政治家、經濟學家、規劃者及利益相關者能夠共同合作，開發出在發展與我們所依賴的環境服務之間提供可接受平衡的解決方案。
