The book while dealing with current research and development in climate change and sustainable development, also discusses about the significance of natural resource management for sustainable development. It covers the issues of topical interest viz., carbon emission trading, organic farming, waste water management, impact of land use, special and temporal variation of rainfall, concepts of green building, sustainable agriculture, resource recovery mechanism, disaster risk reduction initiatives, GHG emissions, environmental regulations etc. Written by leading experts, the diverse chapters dovetailed in the volume serve the interests of all sections of the society who are working in the areas of climate change and sustainable development. Practicing engineers, environmental managers, academicians, researchers, research scholars, students and government officials will consult this book as an essential guide to help mitigate and adapt the effects of climate change and sustainable development.
