This book is concerned with the present tempo of economic development and the condition of natural environment. Many authors in economics interpret the economic development as increasing per capital income. The economic development is a process which employs available resources to satisfy the need of goods and services. More the population, more the demand, more the production more the use of natural resources and thereby more the environmental pollution. This book gives some of the case studies of economic development and environmental pollution in respect of quick and fast urbanization, industrialization, excess use of water and fertilizers, situation of coastal pollution, deforestation use of village common property and provisions in environmental laws, etc. The book also covers the process of economic development in the field of agriculture, forest, industry etc. and remedial measures to prevent the pollution. The ultimate aim of this book is to bring to the notice of readers that there is a direct and positive relationship between economic development and environmental degradation. The book is useful to common man and the researchers to assess the environmental problems created due to economic development.
