ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND COMPLIANCE | Government Institutes

THE MODERN MILITARY AND THE ENVIRONMENT
THE LAWS OF PEACE AND WAR
William Wilcox
The battle is an old one: man versus nature. And in modern society, man includes the military. Machines. Chemicals. Who wins the battle and at what cost? This practical analysis of the conflict between national security requirements and environmental responsibility looks at just that. William Wilcox examines the most common environmental issues that the military faces during wartime and peacetime and provides an introduction to the legal authorities, including statutes, regulations, and executive orders, governing the application of environmental law to military activities.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
CONCEPTS AND APPLICATIONS
Second Edition Frank R. Spellman and Nancy E. Whiting
Designed for both professional and student use, this book uses scientific laws, principles, models, and concepts to provide a basic foundation for understanding and evaluating the impact that chemicals and technology have on the environment. It includes recent improvements in the application of new technologies and materials on the environment. It places greater emphasis on the three environmental media of air, water, and soil and discusses how technology can be used to mitigate contamination of all three. Major topics covered include connections between environmental science and technology, air quality, water quality, soil science, and the impact of solid and hazardous waste on the environment.

William Wilcox is an attorney in the Washington, D.C., office of Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP and a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve. He also spent 15 years as an active duty military and civilian attorney, specializing in environmental law, to federal agencies.
