ABOUT THE BOOK

In recent years there had been more concern worldwide for environmental issues and there have been increasing efforts to understand the causes of environmental problems and find local and global solutions to these problems.

The main purpose of the book, 'Introduction to Environmental Issues; causes, effects and solutions', is to raise the awareness of people to some environmental issues. The awareness of these issues is important at the government and public level, especially for students in the secondary schools, colleges and universities because they are the future stakeholders of the environment.

The aim of the book is to present an overview of environmental problems created by human beings in their quest to produce food and make life comfortable - to highlight the effects of these problems on the environment, living organisms and on human beings themselves - to draw attention to the work of individuals, groups and some governments in their effort to solve some of the environmental problems and preserve the physical environment, biodiversity and the world in general for the future generations.

The book covers topical issues, such as, Pollution, Acid rain, Desertification, Global Warning, Climate change, Conservation of natural resources and biodiversity, Renewable energy and Sustainable development.
