Promoting Geoethics in Society: A New Challenge for Geoscientists
No full textThe Geoscience community is called to play an important role in society: helping in the defense against natural risks, orienting on global issues like climate change, looking for new ways to source natural resources from a sustainable perspective, building a knowledgeable society and help to improve the living conditions of human life especially in low income countries. This implies geoscientists are more aware of their social responsibility and capable of working by the principles of integrity, honesty with respect for land, water and air...Published42-443T.

Geoethics: A framework for the management of the geosphere and geo-risks
No full textIn a world where natural disasters are increasing and there is an urgent demand for an ethics of prevention, management and communication, a framework of ethical principles and standards for orienting geoscientists in conducting their professional activity becomes fundamental.
The defense against geo-risks involves many actors with different roles. Good relationships between them is necessary to assure efficiency while facing potential natural disasters.
Defining a (geo)ethical framework of values means to create a solid base on which a proper management of georisks can operate. By defining roles and responsibilities, Geoethics is a valuable reference to work in this direction and to improve the resilience of human community to disasters.PublishedArequipa (Peru)7IT.

Geoethics: a new perspective for geosciences
No full textIn recent years, the need to develop an ethical reflection on the values that are at the basis of geoscience research and practice has arisen powerfully. Studying the Earth system, managing the land, geo-engineering the environment, exploiting its geo-resources, and altering natural processes are actions that involve great responsibilities towards oneself, colleagues, society and the environment, of which perhaps we, as geoscientists, are not sufficiently aware.PublishedSibiu (Romania)7IT.

La prevenzione dai rischi naturali: una questione (geo)etica e culturale
No full textIn Italia non esiste una strategia di riduzione dei rischi naturali, che parta dall’educazione nelle scuole e dall’informazione alla popolazione, che preveda sistematicamente esercitazioni di emergenza, la pianificazione di interventi di rinforzo delle abitazioni, l’applicazione rigorosa delle normative edilizie, la delocalizzazione di edifici strategici e di impianti industriali a rischio. Al momento la prevenzione in Italia viene percepita soprattutto come declamazione di luoghi comuni e slogan, puntualmente rispolverati dopo ogni tragedia. Quali sono le ragioni profonde di una tale irrazionalità fatalistica che ignora la scienza? Il nuovo campo della geoetica può dare alcune risposte.Published7IT.

La geoetica al congresso dell'European Geosciences Union
No full textIl 9 aprile scorso, a Vienna, nell'ambito del congresso annuale organizzato dall'EGU, si è tenuta una sessione di geoetica incentrata sulle pericolosità geologiche e sul ruolo e le responsabilità dei geologi, quali studiosi ed esperti del territorio. L'evento è stato organizzato dalla neonata associazione IAPG - International Association for Promoting Geoethics, che ha la sua sede in Italia. La sessione ha riscosso un successo enorme: più di 200 partecipanti in sala e 300 persone collegate tramite internet da tutto il mondo.Published283T.

Che cosa significa “Geoetica”? Dentro le parole, il senso dell’attività del geologo
No full textGeoethics is born with the intent to highlight the social role of Geosciences, to encourage a critical analysis on the use of natural resources, to promote the enhancement and protection of the Geosphere, the correct information on risks, the involvement of the scientific community in the idea of a common and shared “geological” heritage.
But what is the deep meaning of the word “geoethics”, its origins, its use?
On the one hand Geoethics can be defined as the investigation and reflection on the behaviour of men towards the Geosphere, on the other hand as the analysis of the relationship between the geologist who acts and his own action, with clear implications of responsibility both in scientific research and in professional practice. Starting from the etymology of the words, we can try to grasp the meaning of the geologist’s activity.Published12-135.9. Formazione e informazioneN/A or not JCRope
Il paesaggio geologico: forme, processi e pericolosità
No full textIl paesaggio rappresenta il luogo dove saperi diversi si sovrappongono, il punto d'incontro di numerose discipline di studio, dall'ecologia all'urbanistica, dall'arte alla geografia, dalla geologia all'architettura, fino all'economia e altro ancora, spaziando dal campo scientifico a quello umanistico...Published128-1347IT.
