Importance of Environmental Science in Contemporary India and the World
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The interdisciplinary discipline of environmental science has developed in reaction to increased environmental crises which are increasingly jeopardizing environmental stability, human health, economic prosperity, and social justice. Environmental problems in India have been exacerbated by the fast and high rate of industrialisation, urbanisation, population pressure, climate exposure, and mismanagement of waste materials, including air and water pollution, climate induced calamities, extinction of biodiversity, and poor disposal of waste materials. On a global scale, global warming, plastic contamination, environmental degradation, and international environmental threats have become the characteristics of the twenty-first century. The significance of environmental science in comprehending, tracking, and solving these dilemmas using scientific proof, statistical data, and recent Indian and worldwide case studies is explored in this research paper. The paper emphasizes the role of environmental science in sustainable development, environmental governance and policy making as well as outlining technical and institutional constraints that limit its successful implementation.
