Geoethics In Latin America

Beschreibung

This book studies geoethics in Latin America and offers comprehensive research on geoethics and geoeducation. Its respective chapters explore geoethics in relation to UNESCO geoparks, mining activities in Latin America, natural hazards and risk management.

Geoethics is a key discipline in the field of Earth and Planetary Sciences, and not only includes scientific, technological, methodological and social-cultural aspects, but also addresses the need to consider appropriate protocols, scientific integrity issues and a code of good practice when studying the abiotic world.

The position of Latin America’s recently created geoethics associations is based on protection of the environment, together with a reassurance that the balance of nature and the rights of human beings to enjoy it will be preserved.

“This book moves us towards the goal that geoethics will reach an even larger audience of South American geologists as well as other geoscientists interested in working in this part of the world. ... Geoethics in Latin America is a well-structured collection and a very useful research book which can serve as a reference for researchers-academics, educators, and students interested in geoethics.” (Mohamed Abioui, Lhassan M’Barki, Mohammed Benssaou, Andrea Di Cencio and Mohamed Dades, Science and Engineering Ethics, Vol.25, 2019)
