The Mining Boom And Western Australia 's Changing Landscape : Towards Sustainability Or Business As Usual?

Spatial inequality is an issue that impacts rural areas especially. Mount Druitt, located in the Western side of Sydney, is socially excluded. This means that some members of the Mount Druitt suburb have the inability to participate in society, meaning that they are either homeless, poverty due to associations with drug and alcohol abuse, crime and other sorts of social dysfunctions. Other reasons include chronic unemployment which is one of the most important causes in social exclusion. People who lack education or have had received a low-level education can often lead them to welfare dependance. Mount Druitt, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, was surveyed in a 2011 census that collected data of how many people had post school

Australia has changed since the mining boom. A lot people have migrated from their countries to here to get a job in the mining industry, because of the high amount of ore that is being produced here and the amount of money you earn. Since the mining boom, it has attracted a lot of people to want to come work here in the mines, but so many people want to be employed, but because there is not a job for everyone, not everyone got employed in the mining industry. See source 4 it shows you how much investment it got over the past years.Source 4- the investment in mining over the past years.

Mining is a staple industry of Canadian History. Regardless of the controversies that arise in today’s modern society, debating its environmental effects, economical benefits or the undetermined future of where it will lead the country, the mining industry is always a factor for the government to consider. Thus, by extension the task of reaching an informed decision weighs heavily on politicians; but unknowingly, presses on the concerns of citizens, as what the government decides will reflect on the population. Consequently, readers will wish to understand the significance of the mining industry for their future, yet, an understanding of the industry’s influence on Canada throughout time must have clarification.

Australia has a high rate of deforestation. As much land has been cleared in the last 50 years in Australia as was cleared in the previous 150 years. ().  Even though Australia isn’t recognised as a place with a lot of deforestation, it is recognised for some people a serious problem as it kills and put animals lives in danger and destroys the beautiful landscape and soil that we have. Mining is a very large part of Australia and has ruined many places. Bungonia is only one of the places it has effected. The Europeans (found gold near Bungonia in 1851 which was enough to promote a gold rush ()) ((said it can take up to 50 years to start and finish a certain place when it comes to mining))

There is a common bond throughout Kentucky that stretches from western to eastern state lines that unites many Kentuckians. This common thread is coal mining. Window decals proudly proclaiming “Coal miner’s daughter”, “friend of coal” license plates, and yard signs declaring “Coal keeps the lights on” are only a fraction of the coal mining propaganda frequently seen throughout my community. There is an allure to being a coal miner not only because it is a high paying job that does not require a college degree, but also because being a coal miner evokes a sense of pride within people. However due to the occupational hazards and coal’s impact on the environment, coal mining also poses as a very real environmental health issue for not only my community in western Kentucky but the entire state as well. This research paper aims to describe coal mining as environmental health issue, explain the potential health risks of working in and living near coal mines, identifying regulations and laws concerning the issue, describe the industry’s response to this issue, describe my community’s response to this issue, and identify needs and nursing interventions required for affected aggregates.

Until recently, many of the environmentalist policies of the Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard have been quite moderate, such as encouraging children to turn off their game consoles when not in use. On the government-run Clean Energy Future homepage, the website proclaims: "Switching off video game consoles when not in use could save households up to $150 a year enough to buy several great new games." The website provides a link to tips for ordinary consumers about how they can save money on energy costs through conservation efforts. This is environmentalism marketed from a self-interested perspective. The message is that people can save money and save energy at the same time. While this is a helpful promotional campaign in some respects, it is also somewhat inaccurate, given that many of the measures that must be taken to save the planet will likely be more costly and result in the consumer having to give up certain things and to pay more money for others. Organic food and hybrid cars, for example, cost more than standard-grown food and standard vehicles.

Mining employs 2% of the Australian workforce ("Mining in Australia", 2016). As a whole the mining sector contributes 12.2 billion dollars in tax to the government,

Common change is perhaps the most fundamental trademark peril to the future accomplishment of Australians.

Ecology is the division of biology that deals with the relationships and interactions amongst organisms and their environment, (including other organisms). It derives from the Greek word ‘Okologie’, broken down oikos meaning ‘house, place of dwelling or habitation’ and logia which is ‘study of’. Ecology is literally the study of where organisms live (Ecology, n.d.). It is widely believed that having an understanding of ecology can help us to better manage Australian environments. Since settlement, European land management practices have placed our natural environments under considerable pressure resulting in Australia losing nearly 40% of its forests, and a significant amount of the remaining native vegetation being highly disintegrated (Bradshaw, 2012). Resulting in the degradation of habitats. This essay will discuss how better understanding ecology can assist us with current Australian environmental issues.

According to official document release on RES Australia website, they are recognised as one of the top global leading renewable energy firms to promote the low carbon and sustainable future in term of the operation in business process, they specialise in a level of innovation low –carbon energy technologies. Also, they highlight their core value towards sustainability lies which create a balance among three critical aspects: commercial, environmental and social concerns.

Elected vitality strategies keep on supporting the coal mining and characteristic gas commercial enterprises through subsidies for fossil fuel utilize and creation as the fares by those businesses help essentially to the income of remote trade and government incomes. Australia is a standout amongst the most coal-ward nations on the planet. Coal and regular gas, alongside oil-based items, are presently the essential wellsprings of Australian vitality utilization, in spite of the way that the coal business creates pretty nearly 38% of Australia 's aggregate nursery gas discharges. Government strategy is starting to change with the distribution of the Garnaut report and Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme White Paper, the

According to Dickie and Dwyer (2011, p. 329-331), Australian economy is highly dependent on mining industry. They pointed out that the development of mining industry is essential to the whole Australian economies and it also provides a huge employment. For example, at the end of 2008, the Western Australian mining industry directly employed about 70,000 people and indirectly employed nearly 150,000 people. On the other hand, the other industries develop very slowly, which leads to false prosperity in
