Sinopsis

In the last 100 years, mankind has managed to destroy much of what it took nature millions of years to create. At no point in history has so much damage been done to our natural heritage in such a short amount of time. If something needed to be done to stop this crime against our future generations then now is the time to act, as with every passing day we are speeding towards a self-inflicted doomsday. What is killing our ecology and environment is generally known. What we need are solutions and ways of implementing them. This International Conference on Environment and Development: Challenges and Opportunities, held on March 4-6, 2005 at the University of Delhi, India, is one such step. The conference presented the most up-to-date ideas on solving problems, both ecological and environmental, which mankind has brought upon itself.
