M. R. Nayak, Dr. B. M. Ratnakar

Abstract :

Uncontrolled growth of urbanization and industrialization, expansion and massive intensification of agriculture, and the destruction of forests have contributed for the environment disaster. The Environmental issues in India are huge. The dropping water tables, mass deforestation, land degradation or river contamination, etc are on a massive scale and nearly 30% of Indias gross agricultural output is lost every year due to soil degradation, poor land management and counter productive irrigation. The wetlands and lakes are also being hit hard. Nearly half of the world’s original forest cover has been lost, and each year another 16 million hectares are cut, bulldozed, or burned.
