Sand mining in African coastal regionsexploring the drivers, impacts and implications for environmental sustainability in Lagos Nigeria /[electronic resource] :by Ibrahim Rotimi Aliu, Isaiah Sewanu Akoteyon, Olayemi Soladoye. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2022. - xvii, 91 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - SpringerBriefs in earth system sciences,2191-5903. - SpringerBriefs in earth system sciences..

Chapter 1: Introduction to sand mining activity -- Chapter 2: Contributions of sand mining to development -- Chapter 3: Perspctives on sand mining & sustianability -- Chapter 4: Lagos coastal region and study design -- Chapter 5: Sand mining sites analysis -- Chapter 6: Sand mining drivers & environmental impacts -- Chapter 7: Implications of sand mining for sustainability and conclusions.

This book explores the drivers and impacts of sand mining in the coastal areas of Lagos Nigeria. Based on empirical evidence, sand mining activity is driven by a number of urbanization-related factors while sand mining impacts are underlined by a number of sustainability-related factors. Four urbanization components describe the drivers of sand mining and four sustainability components describe the impacts of sand mining in Lagos. This book concludes on the puzzling dilemma of sand mining that supports thriving urbanization but undermines environmental sustainability in Lagos. Of course, sand mining has strong implications for environmental sustainability in Lagos coastal areas. This book is of immense benefit to environmental planners, city administrators, students of environmental science and the general public who have regards for environmental management.
