Environmental planning of post-mining landscapes

摘要

This paper is based on a contribution by Wende (2010) on ecological development of post mining landscapes.It seeks to describe the great ecological potential of post-mining landscapes in Germany which could also serve as a role model for China.For this,land reclamation legislation is necessary,and powerful environmental and conservation planning instruments would have to be applied.The end point of a precautionary environmental planning process accompanying the mining operation planning process should be a comprehensive concept for the ecologically oriented re-naturalisation of postmining landscapes.Such concepts contribute to the avoidance of long-term devastation,and compensate for impacts on biodiversity.The goal of re-naturalisation is to reuse post-mining landscapes in a sustainable and ecologically oriented manner.
