"The time for a first book on Geoethics has come. The faster, greedier pace of society
and globalization demands it. The comfortable life of scholars in the ivory tower
is coming to a rude awakening. People demand understandable information on geo-hazards,
judges condemn scientist and engineers for lack of communication, indigenous people
rise in anger accusing experts of misleading them, attempts to avoid transparency
in developments still exist, the helplessness of technology to deal with nuclear waste
becomes more evident every day and nature exposes shortcuts in constructing critical
facilities with her own awesome force. Less dramatic, but damaging the credibility
of the scientific community is the rising number of cases of plagiarism, made easy
by the electronic world of communication. In addition, the community of geoscientists
needs to become aware of subtle ways in which our work can be useless for or even
misleading the public"
