  • Description

    Ecological Meltdown is a thought-provoking book that documents the destruction of biodiversity and ecosystems due to human actions. It warns of an impending ecological meltdown and analyses the causes behind it. These include unprecedented growth in human population, diversion and degradation of natural ecosystems, changing consumption patterns and survival strategies, sinking conservation funding, ineffective management, weak international biodiversity-related conventions, and never-ending conflicts. The book is an invaluable resource for policy-makers and institutions in the forestry, wildlife, energy, rural development, and environment sectors. It is equally useful for conservationists, scientists, researchers, and students of environmental science. Key Features: Thoroughly researched and analytical text with supporting statistics Authoritative and up-to-date data from authentic sources Scientific facts and figures illustrated by diagrams, graphs, and tables Offers a global as well as Indian perspective on sustainable development A must read for all those who are concerned about the planet s future Contents:xC2;xA0; xC2;xA0; Beyond limits The fast breeding machines One earth, many worlds The (un) protected areas Victims of human hunger Treating deep wounds is first aid enough? The relevance of multilateral environmental agreements Revisiting sustainable development
