About The Book
Ecology exists because of the intersection of living and non-living entities and cannot be seen in isolation. This intersectional network is so complex that any variation at one point is bound to impact the other. Human intervention has undoubtedly brought about alarming changes in the environment leading to ecological imbalance. The gravity of the situation can be understood viewing the centrality of environment and its sustainability that has engaged International politics. Since environment and ecology links all, an approach to its sustainability too needs a multidimensional exposure and understanding to generate viable solutions to the ecological crisis that the entire humanity faces. This book is an effort to provide an insight to ecology and propose sustainable strategies as viewed from the point of view of scholars across different disciplines.
