Resource exploitation and management 1. Background and definitions
In this section,you will need to understand: ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],A Resource is also defined as the  “  skill in  devising expedients ,practical integrity, quick wit” ie the resourcefulness of a person. The population of a country are also a resource. Both natural and human resources are inextricably linked… without human resourcefulness and the development of technology, natural resources cannot be exploited!
The continuum between renewable and non- renewable resources. Naturally renewable resources  will exist independent of human life….. however Commonest classification of resources is between renewable and non- renewable resources . Most non – renewable resources are fossil fuels and certain minerals. They took millions of years to form and once used cannot be replaced within a human life scale. They are finite. Some  renewable resources may become “ non- renewable” due to human mis-use and abuse  eg Fish stocks overfished to extinction Soil degraded to point of desertification Water table lowered to become irreversibly saline City air polluted with carbon monoxide to produce smog.
The issue? Obviously more of the earth’s biological resources need to be more carefully conserved and managed if they are to regenerate and provide new supplies for future generations.  The issue here is that of  SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT. Ie If we develop and exploit resources today we should do so  in the knowledge that the resource base is left in the same or an improved state for future generations.
A case study of world forest depletion…timber resources unsustainably managed. 1.Can you identify the countries where forests are being depleted? 2. Why is this happening? 3. How can this be controlled?
How else can  resources be classified? Some resources that have already been obtained from the land or sea but are not yet required are stockpiled ready to use in the future. These materials are said to be held  in stock.  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
What factors control resource exploitation? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],What factors change the situation? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Starter  Identify the types of industries and likely locations shown on the following pictures……
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Oil  production
World Oil Production On a world map base name and plot the top 10 oil producers as columns, to scale.   Scale;
 
Case study – North Sea oil and gas Natural gas and oil reserves were known about for a long time before they were commercially viable to exploit. It had been just too costly and too difficult to drill into the sea bed and extract them. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],4. Giant “ Forties “ field opened up in Oct 1970 5. Costs in human terms (loss of life) and excessive finances(budget far greater than NASA space programme! ) continually in balance.
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],How long will a resource be exploited?
The issues…..   ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The Earth as a Closed system. There is a finite limit to the global stocks of all resources. “Life expectancies” for selected minerals are calculated on the basis of known reserves. It is only a “snap –shot” in time as new reserves are being discovered and others are exhausted. Life expectancies for certain minerals. Coal 230 Natural gas 62 Oil 41 Copper 534 Zinc 56 Silver 26 Tin 55 Gold 30 Lead 47 Display these statistics  as a graph and research the names of the  top 3 producing countries where each is found.
Will there be sufficient resources to satisfy world population needs ? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Carrying capacity illustrated….
[object Object],The human population is unique in that it can  increase  “ carrying capacity” by  technological advance.  It can also swap resources from resource-rich to resource poor areas of the world. The scenarios:
 
A new agenda…
The 3 “R’s”? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Are we succeeding…..?
Waste management ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Now describe and explain the pattern displayed.
Case study; Surrey waste management ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
