Description

As global water resources become increasingly oversubscribed, the environmental impact of mining requires urgent attention. While hydraulic fracturing often dominates headlines, the long-term effects of conventional mining on water systems are equally significant. This volume from the Routledge Special Issues on Water Policy and Governance examines the irretrievable consequences mining has had on ecosystems and communities worldwide. This text moves beyond simple conflict by suggesting that the technical knowledge and influence of mining interests are necessary components of a solution. Rather than viewing this as an us-or-them scenario, the book explores how various contributors address the deficiencies in current water management. It serves as a vital resource for understanding how mining legacies shape water policy and the future of global water governance.
