Data collected from different ecosystems forms a strong foundation to explore the topics discussed in this book. The book investigates how mankind is presently under the appalling shadow of pollution, climate change, overpopulation and poverty. The continuing problem of pollution, loss of forests, disposal of solid waste, deterioration of environment, global warming and loss of biodiversity have made nations aware of environmental issues. Many countries are desperately trying to move away from this adverse situation through technological development and policy level approaches. Through a number of case studies the authors provide details of ground level observations of the most environmentally stressed regions in the Indian subcontinent and beyond. 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aEnvironmental geography 606 $aEcosystems 606 $aPollution 606 $aEcology  606 $aBiodiversity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19031 606 $aEnvironmental Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J19010 606 $aEcosystems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L1904X 606 $aPollution, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35000 606 $aTerrestial Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19139 606 $aCiències ambientals$2thub 607 $aÍndia$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aEnvironmental geography. 615 0$aEcosystems. 615 0$aPollution. 615 0$aEcology . 615 14$aBiodiversity. 615 24$aEnvironmental Geography. 615 24$aEcosystems. 615 24$aPollution, general. 615 24$aTerrestial Ecology. 615 7$aCiències ambientals 676 $a304.2 700 $aMitra$b Abhijit$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0881858 702 $aZaman$b Sufia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416108803321 996 $aEnvironmental Science - A Ground Zero Observation on the Indian Subcontinent$92531895 997 $aUNINA
