tailieunhanh - Handbook of Pollution Control and Waste Minimization

The most significant issues facing mankind today are related to the quality of our environment. Past decisions did not always consider environmental factors as critical elements. However, current decisions made daily should reflect the importance of the environment. All environment-related issues are multidisciplinary, ranging from science and engineering to social, economic, and regulatory issues. Further, these issues are not related to any one region or country, but are global in nature, requiring multidisciplinary, multiorganizational, and multinational educational efforts | Handbook of Pollution Control and Waste Minimization edited by Abbas Ghassemi New Mexico State University Las Cruces New Mexico DEKKER Marcel Dekker Inc.
