Waste Discharge into The Marine Environment: Principles and Guidelines for the Mediterranean Action Plan covers the legal (framework convention and related protocols), scientific (research, monitoring, and assessment), and management (integrated planning) regarding the protection of the Mediterranean Sea. The book provides principles and guidelines in the issuance of permits for the discharge of water wastes and other matter into the marine environment. The text consists of seven chapters that are organized into two parts. The first part covers the guidance of the control of discharge of poten
Science for Better Environment: Proceedings of the International Congress on the Human Environment (HESC) focuses on the applications of science in health, human settlements, and protection of the environment. The selection first offers information on the background of HESC, including human settlements and habitat, environment and development, natural disasters, and energy. The text then discusses human's place in natural ecosystems, along with essential properties of ecosystem, auto-regulation in ecosystem, and collapse of symbiosis between human and nature. The compilation presents a summary
Environmental Impact of Energy Strategies within the EEC is a report prepared for the Environment and Consumer Protection Service of the Commission of the European Communities. The report aims to examine the effects on the environment of the production and use of different forms of energy within the community and to determine the scope for minimizing environmental impact through the adoption of appropriate energy strategies. After an introduction, this report presents in Sections 2 and 3 the summary, conclusions, and recommendations presented at the time of the Nuclear Hearings. The main body
