tailieunhanh - Environmental Management

There has been a steady increase in anthropogenic pressure over the past few years due to rapid industrialization, urbanization and population growth, causing frequent environmental hazards. Threats of global environmental change, such as climate change and sea level rise, will exacerbate such problems. Therefore, appropriate policies and measures are needed for management to address both local and global trends. | Environmental Management edited by Santosh Kumar Sarkar SCIYO Environmental Management Edited by Santosh Kumar Sarkar Published by Sciyo Janeza Trdine 9 51000 Rijeka Croatia Copyright 2010 Sciyo All chapters are Open Access articles distributed under the Creative Commons Non Commercial Share Alike Attribution license which permits to copy distribute transmit and adapt the work in any medium so long as the original work is properly cited.
