Opportunities in Applied Environmental Research and Development by National Research Council,Division on Earth and Life Studies,Commission on Geosciences, Environment and Resources,Committee on Opportunities in Applied Environmental Research and Development Pdf
Research is the foundation of environmental protection. This volume reviews four areas of opportunity in applied environmental research and development: waste reduction, ecosystem and landscape change, anticipatory research, and long-term chemical toxicity. It presents the consensus of workshops held to explore these four areas as well as an introductory chapter that summarizes the committee's view of environmental research and development.
