Dear Group,
I have just connected to your discussion and by way of introduction I am = interested in the problems associated with getting new environmental = technologies (either technologies per se or appropriate advice) = implemented into agricultural and mining operations, particularly in = "developed countries". =20
Are these topics of relevance to this group? If so, does anyone have = any useful websites on this topic? I would be interested to get other = peoples opinions on the following observation : when advising mining = site environmental professionals about a problem (i.e. an environmental = impact) they are having/causing, much of the time they would implement = your technology/advice as long as it didn't cost them much (or better = still nothing). At other times you can provide advice which only costs = them their time, and they still won't adopt the technology. Any = thoughts?=20
I am looking forward to discussions with the group in the future.
