Description

Mining, Materials, and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): 2030 and Beyond provides a systematic assessment of how the mining and materials sector contributes to the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) set forth by the United Nations in 2015. While the target date of 2030 is considered a benchmark for reaching these goals, the book looks beyond this date and considers a longer-term vision.

FEATURES

  • Written by a consortium of authors from developing and developed countries
  • Offers coverage of environmental, economic, and social dimensions of the SDGs
  • Follows the 17 SDGs and includes a short chapter on each, followed by a case example
  • Includes longer conceptual chapters that consider cross-cutting issues as well

Aimed at those working in minerals, mining, and materials, this work offers readers a practical vision of how these sectors can have a positive impact on meeting these vital global targets.
