Introduction to Ecology and Environmental Laws in India
About this audiobook
The environment is one of the most precious resources that is available to any country and its people. For rapidly developing countries like India, there are a range of environmental problems such as pollution, deforestation, disappearance of wildlife and sea life. Environmental laws are thus needed to protect and preserve the environment from destruction.
In this book, we first present an introduction to issues related to ecology and environment. We then summarize the main laws that are available to protect the environment. These laws cover different aspects of the environment such as wildlife, pollution control, forest cover and waste management. Taken together, these laws present a comprehensive system to protect and preserve the biodiversity and environmental resources connected with the air, water and soil of India.
It is hoped that this book would provide a good introductory guidance to people who are interested in environmental issues and who wish to be familiar with the laws in India related to the environment.
