Produktbeschreibung
Our planet is at risk. The current explosion in the human population is forcing us to a simple but pivotal choice: stabilize the planet or perish. The coming years will bring grave crisis-environmental, economic, human. Only if we achieve a close understanding of the system of which we are part- how it came about and how it works- will the next generation be positioned to cope with the emerging problems. Geology and environment has a remarkable influence on our lives today, as it has on all life since the beginning billions of years ago. Perhaps the clearest influence we see of this is through the development of wealth from the exploitation of fossil fuels and mineral resources including precious metals and gems and there impacts on surrounding, climate change, pollution, radiation, etc. This book is a collection of my articles and research papers on different aspects of environment and geology and its interrelationship. It is from climate change to global warming, pollution to search for diamonds, radiation to war for water, origin of water to origin of our atmosphere and many more.
