Produktbeschreibung

A healthy environment is an essential component of life for all living organisms on the planet. Today clean and healthy environment has attained status of a fundamental human right. All ancient religious scriptures too teach to live in harmony with nature. These scriptures follow a worshipful attitude towards earth, sky, air, water, plants, trees, birds, animals, rivers, oceans, hills and mountains. However, the uncontrolled exploitation of natural resources in the name of development and the emission of vast quantities of resulting pollutants both have disturbed the fine balance of nature. Although, development is a fundamental right of every human being, it should not come at the cost of ruining the planet. As Mahatma Gandhi said that The earth has enough for every man's need but not for every man's greed. With this background, the present volume on Environmental and Energy Management (ethics, laws and policies) is a nice collection of articles that address the related issues in parts as well as whole. The highlights of this volume are as given under: o Needs, sustainable development, quality of life and resilience o General process and procedures of environmental impact assessment o Environmental impact of alien species in marine ecosystems o Use of GIS in environmental impact assessment and environmental process modeling o Risk analysis based impact of flood protection object assessment in urban areas o Energy and environmental management toward quality of urban life o Economy through environmental audit in Indian scenario o Energy sources, economic policies and sustainable technologies o Review of an environment friendly refrigeration system o Energy and resources recovery in waste water treatment plants o Case study on integrated waste management in hospitality business o Role of integrated nutrient management under semi-arid inceptisols in India o Electricity generation mix and economic growth in France o Oil rents, CO2 emissions and economic growth This volume includes 14 articles subscribed by 40 professionals/academicians/researchers from 8 countries, namely Austria, Chile, India, Iran, Italy, Portugal, Spain and Thailand showcasing the various activities currently being undertaken in different parts of the world on Environmental and Energy Management.
