Présentation de l'éditeur

This series focuses on the environmental impact of resource-based industries around the world, today and in the future. How can the growing demand for raw materials be balanced with the increasingly urgent need to reduce the footprint that is left when natural resources are taken from the Earth and developed for worldwide consumption? It is highly illustrated, with an emphasis on presenting a balanced argument about marrying global development with sustainability.
