The authors argue that with careful planning, health and ecological risks can be minimized and net economic benefits realized fairly. The book examines the key parameters that should be considered by potential trading nations to ensure an optimally safe and mutually beneficial partnership. The authors provide comprehensive coverage of the political, environmental, industrial and economic issues involved in this complex and increasingly controversial practice. 606 $aHazardous wastes$xTransportation$xLaw and legislation 606 $aHazardous wastes$xManagement 615 0$aHazardous wastes$xTransportation$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aHazardous wastes$xManagement. 676 $a363.72878 700 $aAsante-Duah$b D.
