WEST ORANGE, N.J., Dec. 11, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Dr.
Eugene Shannon, director of the
Liberian Geological Survey, Ministry of Lands, Mines and Energy,
Monrovia, Liberia from 1980 to
1990; consultant for the United Nations Advisory Training Services
Branch, Transnational Corporations Management Division, Department
of Social and Economic Development, ATSB/TCMD/DESD, New York, New York, from 1990 to 1992 and
principal natural resources expert and environmentalist with the
African Development Bank, Abidjan, Cote
D'Ivoire and Tunis, Tunisia
from 1992 to 2006, has completed his new book "Safeguarding the
Environment in Mining Development Projects": an in-depth opus on
the notion of pushing for safer mining activities that benefit the
governmental and social areas.
Dr. Shannon presents points that address specific topics
pertaining to proper extraction processes that aim to boost
productivity and safety as well. "Safeguarding the Environment in
Mining Development" gives a description of the role the extractive
industry plays in the economic sector of most developing countries.
It also describes the activities of transnational corporations
(TNCs) in this sector. Topics explored include the impacts on the
economy, employment generation, technology transfer, and
environmental damages as a result of poor mitigation measures to
address externalities as a result of improper effluent
disposal.
This manual (book) further indicates that TNCs must come to
realize that environmental regulations should not only become a
payment part of the business climate of industrialized countries,
but must also be a part of the developing countries and that in the
long run cooperation is more productive than opposition.
The author, a professor of geological and environmental
sciences, also emphasizes that cooperative or bilateral efforts by
both TNCs and governments of developing countries are absolutely
necessary for the effectiveness of safeguarding the
environment.
