About The Book

With the advent of improved scientific and technological innovations there has been a spurt in industrial and developmental activities. This has caused enormous strain on environmental resources and dynamism resulting in gross ecological imbalance. In fact, every major developmental activity is bound to have positive or adverse impacts on environment. We have witnessed multifarious environmental consequences on account of developmental activities; be it in agriculture, power generation, mega dams, and nuclear or mining sector. Global environmental consequences in terms of global warming, rising sea levels and depleting trend of genetic resources etc have already range alarm-bells for threatened future of mankind and should be treated as an alarm for the impending dangers to mankind. The book entitled Environmental Protection is a unique compilation of most recent articles of eminent scientist of the concerned fields of Environmental Science, which will be helpful for students, research scholars, professors, scientists as well for policy makes in achieving the goal of better environment.
