This book examines a number of important contemporary environmental issues. The topics covered include sewage treatment, eutrophication, air pollution, acid rain, global warming and pollution from farming. A particularly valuable section of the book describes a range of tests that can be carried out on various environmental parameters. The procedures require relatively simple equipment and they have been pre-tested in a school laboratory.
Keywords: environmental issues, sewage treatment, eutrophication, air pollution, acid rain, global warming, farming pollution, environmental testing
