The emphasis on developing mass extraction procedures has resulted in the ecological systems in certain areas of the world being plundered by man, employing accessory improvements which facilitate rapid development without consideration for future needs. This has resulted in profound disruption caused by the depletion and inadequate replenishment of the earth's ecological systems. The earth's biological balance has been harmed through indiscriminate use of chemicals, the lack of adequate processes to deal with harmful by-products, and the mismanagement of waste products.
