This title in other formats:Ocean Resourcesby D. A. Ardus
Synopses & ReviewsBook News Annotation:Over two dozen papers, most by contributors from the US and UK,
consider the resources in the Exclusive Economic Zone, that part of
the ocean lying within 200 miles of land, and therefore subject to
the local terrestrial government. One chapter surveys the legal
aspects, emphasizing that the indiscriminate dumping and
overexploitation by developed countries will have to change, and less
fortunate countries will have to be convinced not to follow in our
disastrous (but lucrative) footsteps. Subsequent papers survey
methods for mapping and assessing the potential of EEZ's, and for
exploiting such resources as minerals, energy, fish, and the space
itself. Three final papers discuss measuring and assessing the
environmental impact.
