Sustainable Environmental Technologies: Recent Development, Opportunities, and Key Challenges
Source abstract
Abstract
The ongoing increase in global population, industrialization, urbanization, and intensive agricultural practices has resulted in a wide range of environmental challenges including increased waste generation, rising greenhouse gas emissions, the uncontrolled release of emerging and toxic pollutants, degraded soil, water, and air quality, the depletion of natural resources, and the escalating impact of climate change [...]
