Abstract

The present paper deals with environmental problems - from a geological point of view - which have been worsened considerably in recent times, due mainly to the exploitation of our natural resources. The classic concepts concerning the environmental problems are reviewed here. It must be emphasized that we must profit from the present experience in order to forecast the problems we can expect to have in the near future. Finally, this contribution enhances the role of the geological sciences in matters concerning the exploitation and the conservation of natural resources.
