| Summary, etc |
The wellness of a community is dependent upon the security of food, water, environment and energy. Such a security is best realized through science-illuminated (earth, space, hydrological, pedological, information) management of local resources (water, soil, bioresources, minerals, rocks, sediments, et cetera) in an ecologically sustainable and people-participatory manner, and value-addition through processing of natural products. The present volume, which seeks to provide employment-oriented technology and skills for the ecologically sustainable and economically viable management of natural resources, is not only up-to-date technology-wise, but has the added merit of integrating technology with economics and policy. Among the natural resources, the book gives primacy to water, as food security, health and hygiene and environmental security are all dependent upon water security. The volume draws attention to technologies, which would help humankind to live in harmony with nature, such as technologies available for minimizing the adverse environmental impact of mining, for reducing the carbon footprint of energy resources, and for the use of biotechnology in conserving biodiversity. Natural hazards such as earthquakes and tsunamis cannot be prevented, but by being prepared for them, harm to life and property can be minimized. As such, the section on disaster management gives an account of science- and people-based preparedness systems. The volume is intended for researchers, professionals and students in environmental and earth sciences, mining, geography, sociology and economics and for policy makers and investors searching for potential in the natural resources industry.
