Download or read book Environment Management written by Satpathy and published by Excel Books India. This book was released on 2005 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man's close inter-relationship with his environment implies that he must respect the inviolability of the Earth's self-correcting mechanisms that, while fairly robust, cannot long endure abuse. However, industrial society with its insatiable craving for more and more energy, for production as well as propulsion has caused enormous environmental degradation. Modern society needs machines, which need energy, which in turn need fuel&the root cause of Man's deliverance as well as being his nemesis. Deforestation, a depleted ozone layer, unprecedented climatic changes, droughts, floods, poisoned ground water, vast tonnages of non-biodegradable solids and chemical vapours injected into the environment, cancers all warn that a better model of industrial and social development is needed. More than mere legislation, what is required is a holistic view of progress per se. This book vividly describes the process by which pollution has become such a horrifying part of our lives. In decrying the western path to development that set the trend, it argues for a return to a saner world-view, making this captivating book a riveting encounter for laymen, students, researchers and policy makers alike.

Download or read book Biodiversity: An Overview written by Mukesh Kumar and published by I K International Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 2011-07-15 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India’s phytodiversity is one of the most significant in the world. India is one of the twelve mega-biodiversity centers in the world and also an important center of origin of agrobiodiversity. It is therefore, very important to study, document and conserve the plant wealth of India and also of the world before its possible extinction. There are convincing scientific, economic and sociological reasons for giving priority to the conservation of the major centers of plant diversity throughout the world. The strategies to conserve the biodiversity include establishment of protected area network and corridors with emphasis on appropriate levels of management, reduction of anthropogenic pressure on natural populations by cultivating them elsewhere, programmes of augmentation, reintroduction and introduction of target taxa, restoration of degraded habitats, etc. The conservation strategies can be either, in-situ conservation of genetic resources within their ecosystem and natural habitat or ex-situ conservation of components of genetic material of biological diversity outside their natural habitat. The choice of conservation strategy depends upon the nature of the material to be conserved, i.e., the life cycle and mode of reproduction, size of individual population and ecological status. Ex-situ techniques include the establishment of botanical and zoological gardens, banks of pollen, seed tissue culture, DNA, etc. Establishment of forest reserves, national parks, protected areas and on farm conservation of valuable plant varieties is being promoted to facilitate their in-situ conservation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is one of the few interdisciplinary studies on the change-dynamics of family. Family life, undergoing transformation of varying degree as a result of industrialisation, urbanisation and other modernisation forces, has been dealt with from different angles. Besides democracy, power equation and violence in the family, experiences and problems of migrant families, vulnerable families, single women families and dual-earner families have received critical attention. Moreover, family evolution, problems of ageing, impact of environment on family, and portrayal of family in visual media have also been focussed upon. The study combines a theoretical perspective and an empirical treatment.

This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mining refers to the process of extracting minerals and metals from the crust of the earth. Some minerals can be mined more easily as they are found on the earth’s surface, while others lie far beneath the surface and can be obtained only by digging deep underground. Gold, Silver, Diamond, Iron, Coal, Aluminum (Bauxite) and Uranium are some of the vast array of metals and minerals that are obtained by the latter process. In fact, mining is the source of all the substances that cannot be obtained by industrial processes or through agriculture. Mining, in its wider sense connotes extracting and processing of a non - renewable mineral resource. Minerals can be classified into metallic (iron, copper, gold, aluminum, uranium etc.) and non-metallic (sand, salt, phosphates etc.) These minerals are non-renewable or depleting assets and once mined-out, they are exhausted and are lost forever without any chance of replenishment. Simply, this exhaustible resource cannot be harvested, unlike agricultural products.

The innovativeness of this approach stems from the use of narratives, scientific explanation, and thematic analysis to present the arguments in each chapter of this edited book. Overall, each chapter of this book acts as a powerful resource in teaching, research, and advocacy efforts. This book fills a gap in the Global South production of environmental, climate, and social justice. It provides in-depth knowledge to the readers and raises their critical thinking about key elements/discussions of justice issues of environmental conflicts and climate change. The book is a useful read to a general audience interested in the topic of climate, environment, and development politics.

Download or read book Environmental Law and Policy in India written by Shyam Divan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-04 with total page 1009 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental law and policy in India affects all sections of society. Those most deeply affected by it are the poor. They are the first victims of poor sanitation, polluted air, and contaminated water. Since the 1970s, efforts to protect environmental quality have met with limited success, posing enduring challenges for policy designers and decision-makers entrusted with protecting and preserving natural resources. This edition of Environmental Law and Policy retains the familiar analytical structure of the second edition and includes all major developments since then. It focuses on Indian environmental law, policies, problems, and needs with the comprehensiveness of an American law case book, compiles all the leading cases in environmental law in India with concise extracts of landmark judgments and policy documents, and provides discussions on projects which could potentially degrade the environment. This volume also covers air and water pollution, forests, wildlife, noise pollution, common property resources and tribal communities, environmental impact assessment, coastal regulations, large projects, urban problems, the National Green Tribunal, hazardous substances, transnational environmental policies, and international environment law. It is interlaced with notes, comments, and questions intended to encourage critical thinking amongst lawyers and law students.
