Accidental large-scale contamination of the environment

Combining Preparedness Efforts with Development

In order to minimize the potential for future environmental catastrophes caused by human interaction with the environment, it is necessary to take steps to prepare for potential disasters as new development occurs. This means developing using methods that are environmentally friendly, while insuring minimal environmental impact. In addition, it necessitates the institutions of fail-safes at every stage of development guaranteeing limited environmental impact in the event of a natural or man-made disaster. While this increases the cost of development, it has the potential to save money in the long run, in addition to providing protection for all species located within the area being developed.
