Synopsis It is generally said that economic development and environmental protection can not go together. To some extent, it is not incorrect. That is why it has become the demand of the present time that devices and ways are found so that natural environment may be protected and development be made simultaneously. How can this be possible? This book Environmental Protection and Development has been written for giving practically possible solutions to this relevant and important question. This book is the outcome of years of involvement and interaction with persons and organisations associated with the movements of environmental protection and industrial development. The basic motivation behind the writing of this book is to compile all the relevant information about different types of pollution, causes and possible remedies. Detailed description has been made about different types of norms, standards, practices and managerial and administrative tools prevailing in the country and abroad relating to the subject. New concepts like theory and practices of green taxes and role of judiciary, etc. have also been dealt with. The various issues relating to philosophy of life and environmental protection have also been given due cognisance. This book will be useful for industrialists, planners, project workers, exporters, government officials, activists and all other persons who have to deal with environment and development in any way.
