Environment has become the central point of global concern. The quality of environment is affected by production and consumption activities of people. Society welfare with its economic activities is also governed by environment.

In such context this book on "ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS" concentrates.

This volume contains the issues like global warming and climate , degradation of natural resource base, biodiversity phenomena, food security, watershed management, mining action, energy use efficiency, environmental audit, environmental laws and overall ethics in environmental management.
