Summary, etc. |
Environmental Studies is designed to serve as a textbook for the first year undergraduate course on Environment Studies offered by Mumbai University. This book endeavours to generate awareness about environmental concerns among students and introduces the reader to the perils facing the environment and the importance of environmental resources for human sustenance. Beginning with detailed discussions on non-living and living environments, the book goes on to discuss social environment, methods of environmental conservation, and global efforts being undertaken in protecting the living environment. The book also delves into environmental problems such as depleting natural resources and imbalanced ecosystems, environmental pollution and toxic waste disposal, sustainable development, and environment protection. Besides explaining issues of environmental degradation and their impact on humans, the book comprehensively discusses certain pressing environmental issues such as population explosion, global climate change, and urbanization. Written in an easy-to-understand manner, the book aims to lucidly convey the seriousness of environmental issues to students. The text is supplemented by a large number of pedagogical features such as learning objectives, end-of-chapter summary, case studies, factoids, and a large database of questions, exercises, and field activities. |
