After several visits to the country on behalf of UNIDO, Mervyn Richardson has compiled a dossier detailing the effects of warfare on the environment. He discusses in detail the destruction of the Croation chemical industry and suggests ways in which new techniques will need to be used for remediation. Important aspects of the economy such as tourism and agriculture are also considered, and a contribution by Croatian scientists covers groundwater pollution caused by the destruction of an ammunition store. The book concludes with a look at the future possibilities for encouraging new industries to take the place of the old and gives a detailed breakdown of key Croatian agencies."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aYugoslav War, 1991-1995$xEconomic aspects$zCroatia 606 $aYugoslav War, 1991-1995$xEnvironmental aspects$zCroatia 607 $aCroatia$xEconomic conditions 615 0$aYugoslav War, 1991-1995$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aYugoslav War, 1991-1995$xEnvironmental aspects 676 $a363.731094972 700 $aRichardson$b Mervyn$013387 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910222239903321 996 $aEffects of War on the Environment: Croatia$92104827 997 $aUNINA
