Abstract:
Human society has moved along rapidly on the path of industrialization. We now have a range of mechanized transport, widespread communications infrastructure and devices powered by fossil fuel based energy for a variety of applications. However, all these developments have led to rapid environmental degradation across the globe and an increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases in the earth’s atmosphere. The result is that the climate of this planet is changing rapidly.
