​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Environmental degradation has become a “common concern” for humankind over the past few decades. The distinctive nature of the present environmental problems is that they are caused more by anthropogenic than natural phenomena. Mindless consumerism and economic growth have started to demonstrate pernicious effects on Mother Nature. In spite of this, the pace and desire for economic development have never ceased. It is economics that has dictated environmental policy. Emphasis has been placed on the role of science and technology as a catalyst for integrating ecology with economics. In this process, sustainable development became a buzzword. This concluding chapter delves into the philosophy behind the concept of green/clean development. It argues that the concept of green/clean development is a result of an understanding that is primarily driven by economic objectives. The chapter highlights various economic approaches to address environmental issues. It also critically analyzes the role of technology in sustainable development. Finally, an attempt has been made to highlight socio-legal issues associated with the process of phytomanagement. Sincere efforts have been maintained to sustain a scientific overtone in writing, as per the requirement of the book. However, the author of this chapter claims the privilege to express his limitations of not being formally trained in science and technology.
