This book was released on 2019-05-23 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate Social Responsibility Failures in the Oil Industry directly challenges the oil industry's claims of corporate good citizenship, now widely advanced as part of a global public relations initiative. The volume spans the industry's reach, from the troubled waters of the UK offshore Continental Shelf, with its horrendous legacy of the Piper Alpha oil rig disaster, to the inhospitable shores of Newfoundland with its own tragic legacy of lost lives; to the new frontier of oil corporate colonialism in the former Soviet Union and the icy plains of Alaska. The central theme of violations of basic labour rights and of health and environmental protection standards will make uncomfortable reading in the boardroom. It is equally essential reading for those who seek to improve the position of workers and industries within the oil industry's global reach.

This book was released on 2016-12-23 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim is to make an assessment of the resource management strategies used in Norway and the United Kingdom to meet the environmental and socio-economic impact of oil and gas development and to investigate the relevance of these strategies to the Newfoundland experience.The purpose of this study is to explore how resource management and environmental planning strategies influence the nature and extent of offshore hydrocarbon projects. Resource management and environmental planningstrategies are important because offshore hydrocarbon can have negative impacts on the social, economic and physical environments. This study examines how regulatory and planning processes identify and assess environmental and socio-economic problems, issues and concerns for the offshore, coastal (nearshore), and onshore regions. This study proposes that the environmental development process must be integrated with local-regional planning process in order to attain maximal effectiveness. The regulatory regime proposed for Newfoundland offshore development will be evaluated with respectto the regulatory and planning processes of the United Kingdom and Norway. The prime concern for resource development and economic planning in Newfoundland has been the provision of jobs in the attack on unemployment, underdevelopment, and low incomes. The discovery of offshore petroleum appears as a panacea capable of solving all of Newfoundland's social and economic ills. Attention has been centered on the economic aspects of oil and gas development, on the jobs created, the incentives provided, the vetting of bargaining actors and their schemes, and the competitive nature of governmentresource development policies. These considerations have obscured the equally pressing tasks of environmental planning and of researching the process of resource management within coastal communities which are dependent on themarine environment for their livelihood. The thesis focuses on particularly on Newfoundland, on the environmental-developmental role of the regulatory regime, and its relationships with the oil companies. It finds that the regulatoryauthority is the most influential actor in the development process and argues that fragmented regulatory responsibility, lack of planning independence, and lack of planning at the local-regional level inhibited efforts at all regulatory levels to planeffectively and make an orderly adjustment to economic development and environmental concerns.A survey was conducted of selected Newfoundland communities to identify the types of issues and concerns that may have importance for offshore development. The purpose of the survey was to solicit the perceptions of key actors regarding potential problems in the coordination of land-use and sea-use planning for the proposed offshore hydrocarbon development project. Inaddition, interviews were conducted in the United Kingdom and Norway to identify and examine what environmental-developmental considerations should be incorporated into the offshore-onshore planning process. The thesis that although the resource regulatory systems for oil and gas development are different in each of the countries considered, the regulatorystructure, strategy, and approach will affect the outcome of the resource management process. Therefore, closer co-ordination of the resource management process and the environmental regulatory regime is a prerequisite for improved future offshore oil and gas development in Newfoundland. In conclusion, resource development environmental planning should be guided by the premise that the capacity of the regulatory system to absorb petroleum development will vary with the size of its population and the complexity of its institutional, political, and economic systems. The regulatory process should support the development of the community environmental control infrastructure as well as economic development infrastructure.

[...] Over the long term, the availability of infrastructure reduces the costs of development, increases the likelihood of additional petroleum industry investment in Atlantic Canada, and ultimately increases Newfoundland and Labrador's participation in the industry. [...] The study period also saw a range of further investments in student awards and scholarships, the creation of work-terms and internships, and new and existing research and training programs. [...] This section of the study summarizes the involvement of a range of such companies with the offshore petroleum industry in Newfoundland and Labrador, and the ways in which interactions with the industry have led them variously to develop new goods and services, hire new personnel, provide them with further training, acquire new facilities and equipment, and improve quality, health, safety, and envi.
Download or read book Preparing Students for Community Engaged Scholarship in Higher Education written by Zimmerman, Aaron Samuel and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-02-01 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community-engaged scholarship is an equitable and democratic approach to scholarship that seeks to identify and solve community-based problems. Community-engaged scholars aim to serve the public good by developing and sustaining community-campus partnerships built on trust, reciprocity, and mutual benefit. As universities orient themselves towards serving the public good, they face a number of challenges: faculty and students may not possess the competencies or commitment to build fruitful community partnerships, graduate and undergraduate students may lack the necessary training and mentorship required to develop their identity as community-engaged scholars, and institutional leaders may not know how to motivate faculty and students for this ambitious and challenging endeavor. Unless these challenges are addressed, universities will fail to prepare the next generation of community-engaged scholars. Preparing Students for Community-Engaged Scholarship in Higher Education is an essential research book that explores how faculty and academic leaders can create learning opportunities and intellectual cultures that support the development of community-engaged scholars. Additionally, it will examine how university coursework can help undergraduate and graduate students to develop the knowledge, skills, and commitments necessary for productive and responsible community-engaged scholarship. Featuring a range of topics such as mentorship, higher education, and service learning, this book is ideal for higher education faculty, university leaders, deans, chairs, educators, administrators, policymakers, curriculum designers, academicians, researchers, and students.
