Climate change is a growing threat to the environment. This book on climate change and ecotoxicology deals with the relationship between the release of organic pollutants such as chlorofluorocarbon and aerosols and the damage caused by them through the phenomenon categorized as climate change. Research within ecotoxicology brings forward the exact nature and extent of destruction that greenhouse gases cause and suggests remedies and mitigation measures. This book, which seeks to incorporate the latest information on climate change mitigation, will be of great help to students and researchers of environmental design, environmental technology and waste management. This book explores all the important aspects of climate change in the present day scenario. The various sub-fields of ecotoxicology and climate change along with technological progress that have future implications are glanced at in this book. As this field is emerging at a rapid pace, the contents of this book will help the readers understand the modern concepts and applications of the subject.
