Like other living creatures, human beings live in, depend on and influence the environment. Our rapidly expanding technological civilization creates new demands on all aspects of environment. As more people live today than have ever lived on the earth at one time, they are using more resources more rapidly than any civilization has used before. They also produce more wastes more rapidly than any previous civilization. The problem of pollution and wastes did not assume disturbing proportions till the 19th century when the Industrial Revolution took place which resulted in increasingly greater production and consumption, and proportionate increase in pollution of water, land, air and environmental peace affeciting natural resources and quality of life adversely.
It is important to know the true nature of present and future dangers, and not be alarmed or panicked by inexact knowledge. This book, therefore, aims at providing a detailed knowledge of pollution of our ecosystem and suggests possible ways for its prevention.
It is hoped that this book will benefit each and every member of the society in familiarising himself with this great menace of contemporary times, Viz, pollution of our ecosystem.
