KESKKONNAKAITSE ÜLDKURSUS Umbes 5000 aastat tagasi Eesti alale rännanud hõimud suhtusid loodusesse austusega. Neil olid pühad paigad, mida hoolega hoiti: hiied, allikad, kivid, puud, jõed ja järved. Eestis on tänini teada ligikaudu 550 hiit ja enam kui 2000 muud pühapaika. 1297 Metsaraiekeeld 4 saarel Tallinna lähistel, Eric VI Menved. Keelu mõte oli küll hoida saarte metsi kui meremärke, kuid kaudselt aitas see kaasa ka loodushoiule. 1642 Sõmerpalu talupoegade rahutused Võhandu jõel (Pühajõgi) lõhuti pais ja veski.

VI peatükk 6. Konteinerveod Konteiner ei ole mingi uus leiutis. Jutt on teatud tüüpi kauba veol kasutatavast kastist. Võrreldes hariliku kastiga on konteiner varustatud lisaseadmetega, mis võimaldavad konteinerit kasutada ajutise laona. Konteinerite ajalugu sai alguse II maailmasõja ajal kui ameeriklased hakkasid teatud mõõtmetega kaste kasutama varustuse toimetamisel sõjatandrile. Hiljem hakati konteinerite mõõtmeid standardiseerima. Esialgu tegeles sellega ASA (American Standardisation Association), hiljem ISO (International Standardisation Organization). Konteinerite liigitus ja mtmed ISO liigitab rahvusvahelistes vedudes kasutatavad konteinerid 1. seeriasse, mida vastavalt pikkusele märgitakse: 1A 40 jalga (12,19 m) 1D 10 jalga (3,05 m) 1B 30 jalga (9,14 m) 1E 6 2/3 jalga (2,03 m) 1C 20 jalga (6,10 m) 1F 5 jalga (1,52 m) Praktilises kasutuses on ülalmainitutest ainult 20- ja 40-jalased. 2. seeria kont...
