Air Pollution
Edited by Vanda Villanyi, ISBN 978-953-307-143-5, Hard cover, 370 pages, Publisher: Sciyo, Chapters published August 17, 2010 under CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 license
Although the climate of the Earth is continually changing from the very beginning, anthropogenic effects, the pollution of the air by combustion and industrial activities make it change so quickly that the adaptation is very difficult for all living organisms. Researcher's role is to make this adaptation easier, to prepare humankind to the new circumstances and challenges, to trace and predict the effects and, if possible, even decrease the harmfulness of these changes. In this book we provide an interdisciplinary collection of new studies and findings on the score of air pollution.
