With the growth of population and increased developmental activities, man himself began to influence the environment in a big way. Sine the beginning of agriculture based civilization; man has started influencing the environment and has brought many changes in the natural settings.

Man has affected the energy balance of the earth, depleted resources, and brought extinction of many organisms. Along with his activities of industrialization and modern way of living, he has directly or indirectly caused global warming, acid rain, eutrophication, depletion of ozone in the upper atmosphere etc. The abatement of pollution has become immediate requirement for his survival. This book is a unique compilation of most recent research articles of eminent environmental scientists which will be helpful for students, research scholars, professors as well as policy makers in achieving the long cherished dream of sustainable development.
