Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recherchées et exploitées depuis l’origine des civilisations, les ressources minérales sont un moteur de l’activité économique et un champ d’observation unique grâce aux informations exceptionnelles qu’elles apportent à notre connaissance de la Terre et de son environnement. L’utilisation raisonnée de ces ressources, la gestion des impacts liés à leur exploitation ou encore la raréfaction sur le moyen terme des gisements les plus riches, notamment en métaux stratégiques, pourraient modifier profondément le paysage économique. Comment exploiter ces ressources de façon durable ? Professeur à l’université Pierre-et-Marie-Curie (UPMC) et chercheur à l’Institut de minéralogie, de physique des matériaux et de cosmochimie de l’UPMC, Georges Calas a été chercheur au CNRS puis professeur à l’université Paris Diderot-Paris VII. Membre de l’Institut universitaire de France, il a été professeur invité au Collège de France sur la chaire annuelle de Développement durable – Environnement, énergie et société pour l’année académique 2014-2015.

Download or read book Les ressources naturelles un enjeu cl pour l avenir de I Afrique written by James Cust and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2023-12-06 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre se penche sur le rôle des richesses en ressources naturelles dans la transformation économique de l’Afrique et évoque les enjeux de la transition sobre en carbone pour les économies riches en ressources. La richesse en ressources constitue en effet un facteur clé dans la majeure partie des économies subsahariennes, dont le sol recèle un important potentiel inexploité. Les gisements souterrains de métaux, minerais, pétrole et gaz représentent des sources prépondérantes de recettes publiques et de revenus d’exportation, tout en offrant des possibilités de développement dans la plupart des pays du continent. En dépit de réserves conséquentes, la conversion de la richesse du sous-sol en prospérité durable n’a pas été pas couronnée de succès. Depuis la baisse du prix des matières premières constaté en 2014, la croissance des pays d’Afrique riches en ressources est plus lente que le taux de croissance moyen observé dans la région. Il est donc vital pour son avenir économique que le continent africain puisse tirer profit de ses richesses en ressources naturelles et ainsi favoriser sa transformation économique. Alors que le monde s’éloigne des combustibles fossiles conformément aux engagements pris dans le cadre de l’Accord de Paris, les pays africains riches en ressources voient surgir de nouveaux risques et de nouvelles opportunités. Des estimations récentes suggèrent que 80 % des réserves de combustibles fossiles attestées dans le monde doivent rester enfouies pour atteindre les objectifs de Paris; or, une grande partie de ces réserves «échouées» se situent en Afrique. Pour les nombreuses économies africaines qui dépendent de l’extraction et de l’exportation du pétrole, cette problématique des actifs «échoués», et par là -même, de «nations échouées», a des implications considérables. Mais cette transition énergétique va également avoir pour effet d’augmenter la demande en intrants de matières premières indispensables aux technologies des énergies vertes. La transition entre combustibles fossiles et énergies vertes devrait ainsi générer une demande de 3milliards de tonnes de minerais et de métaux nécessaires au déploiement des technologies à énergie solaire, éolienne et géothermique. Une question se pose alors: comment les économies africaines peuvent-elles pleinement saisir ces opportunités tout en gérant les risques inhérents aux combustibles fossiles, dans un contexte où leur demande est vouée à décroître? Les ressources naturelles, un enjeu clé pour l’avenir de l’Afrique aborde ces thèmes et offre aux décideurs politiques des pistes pour gérer les écueils de l’incertitude au cours des années à venir.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) brought together almost every country in the world in an effort to have the global community commit itself to the goal of sustainable development. Among its major achievements was Agenda 21, an ambitious plan of action on 39 environment and development issues. The United Nations subsequently created the Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD) to monitor progress towards achievement of UNCED's goals. This report of Canada to the CSD summarizes the progress, lessons learned, and challenges in achieving the goals of sustainable development. It concentrates on the chapters and themes in Agenda 21 that will be discussed at the next session of the CSD. It attempts to isolate the major trends and themes in Canadian responses to each of those chapters. It also includes short summaries of recent developments in topics related to the sectoral chapters discussed during the latest session of the CSD.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Little Green Data Book 2017 is based on World Development Indicators 2017 and its online database. Defining, gathering, and disseminating international statistics is a collective effort of many people and organizations. The indicators presented in World Development Indicators are the fruit of decades of work at many levels, from the field workers who administer censuses and household surveys to the committees and working parties of the national and international statistical agencies that develop the nomenclature, classifications, and standards fundamental to the international statistical system. Nongovernmental organizations have also made important contributions. We are indebted to the World Development Indicators partners, as detailed in World Development Indicators 2017 .

Download or read book The Mediterranean region under climate change written by Collectif and published by IRD Éditions. This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been published by Allenvi (French National Alliance for Environmental Research) to coincide with the 22nd Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP22) in Marrakesh. It is the outcome of work by academic researchers on both sides of the Mediterranean and provides a remarkable scientific review of the mechanisms of climate change and its impacts on the environment, the economy, health and Mediterranean societies. It will also be valuable in developing responses that draw on “scientific evidence” to address the issues of adaptation, resource conservation, solutions and risk prevention. Reflecting the full complexity of the Mediterranean environment, the book is a major scientific contribution to the climate issue, where various scientific considerations converge to break down the boundaries between disciplines.
