The Ways To Lower Harmful Effects Of Mining Activities On The Ecosystem
If not correctly
handled and well conducted, mining exploration, unsurprisingly, becomes one of
the most devastating industries to our ecosystem. Mining is really capable to
break environment and affect land degradation as well as air, water and land
pollution. Additionally, it also has bad effects to human health and causes to
various social, economic and political disturbances.
However, the mining
activity is valuable in our economy. The mining operation of course grow new
employment, people's revenue that leads to the rise of the requirement for
goods and services and tax incomes for nations. Needless to say, the mining
operation will cause the economic expansion and decrease the shortage.
Therefore, it is
challenge to find ways and methods to lower the damaging impacts derived from
the mining industry. The following are several ways how to at least reduce the
environment damage triggered by mining industry:
1. The mining company
is supposed to run good and serious research before mining operation. The study
is to make out and minimize the terrible effect of this process on natural
environment as well as how to successfully employ the mineral resources.
2. Cutting down the
mineral consumption. People ought to lower the consumer products using mineral
products. For example: we are able to use public transit instead of individual
cars to reduce the oil consumption.
3. Creating replacement
with more friendly resources. For example: to produce appliances, we replace
metal with plastic.
4. Recycling used equipment
to minimize new materials mined. It takes far less power to recycle discarded
materials (like tin cans) than to extract, process, and refine metals from ore.
For example, to manufacture aluminum, we consumes 95% less energy when using
second-hand resources rather than from bauxite ore.
5. Improving ecological
performance. By systematically investigating the effects of mining on nature,
it is still promising to decrease the negative impacts of mining.
6. Creating rules and
mining guide to enhance environmental performance that must be obeyed by the
mining companies and certain penalties who are unsuccessful to obey. Here, the
government has power to inspect the mining process.
7. Taking modern and
innovative technology to carry out the best mining operation and practices in
order to lower the ecological pollution to our natural environment.
Finally, we realize
that mining process certainly creates bad impacts on our environments if
inappropriately run. What we can do is how to reduce the unfavorable
environmental impacts of mineral exploration on environment. With the points
expressed above, we expect that the mining company pay attention and be
accountable of the balanced environment.
