This book has been designed for such students who are at an undergraduate level, and are looking for a book that provides them with information in a concise format.

The first edition of this book was printed by UGC on getting direction from the Supreme Court of India. This is the second edition of this book and has put into place improvements based on the feedback given by faculty and students. This version is supposed to be more user-friendly and concise.

The book strictly follows the guidelines laid down by UGC. It has many case studies, ample photographs, and illustrations, which makes the subject very interesting. Teachers, too, will find this book easy to teach and very helpful. The book attempts to clarify all the important concepts in Arts, Science, Engineering, and Commerce pertaining to the environment.

Unit 8 of this book focuses only on fieldwork that can be undertaken by the student. The flowcharts in this book have been well-designed and help in clearing up the concepts even further.

The main theme of the book is to show restraint when it comes to living things and it goes a step forwards by suggesting solutions to problems faced on a day to day basis.

Every chapter has questions at the end which the student can attempt to test his learning levels.  aNatural Resources  aBiodiversity  aPollution  cBK  00102ddc406333_700000000000000_BHA708NFIC912668aMUbMUcGENd2020-05-18l1o333.7 BHApMPC5897r2025-03-17s2020-05-18yBKzColumn - 60  00102ddc406333_700000000000000_BHA708NFIC913752aMUbMUcGENd2020-05-18o333.7 BHApMPC5890r2025-03-17yBKzColumn - 60  00102ddc406333_700000000000000_BHA708NFIC913753aMUbMUcGENd2020-05-18l1m2o333.7 BHApMPC5874r2025-03-17s2022-08-02yBKzColumn - 60
