Worldwide the greatest effects on the health of individuals and populations results from environmental degradation and social injustice, operating in consort. This paper describes the national and global causes and health consequences of these phenomena. Causes include overpopulation, pollution, deforestation...
Degradation Mechanisms and Environmental Effects on Diamondlike Carbon FilmsTao, ZhenhuaBhushan, Bharat
The effects of heat and oxidation are described before the more complex phenomena of outdoor weathering and environmental stress cracking. The degradation of a polymer, when exposed to environmental factors such as oxygen, heat, ultraviolet light, and moisture, depends on its chemical structure. The...
Degradation of three kinds of bioplastics and their effects on microbial biomass and microbial diversityin soil environment were analyzed. The degradation rate of bioplastic in soil was closelyrelated to the main components in the bioplastics. Poly (butylene succinate)-starch (PBS-starch)and poly (bu...
Recent research has greatly focused on the environmental water supplement of rivers individually and independently. However, a comprehensive and integrated view of all rivers in the basin is simultaneously required in closed basins leading to lakes and w

The reductions in vegetation cover can elevate streamflow in both rainfall and snowmelt season, but the effects are most pronounced during the rainfall seasons (i.e., the growing seasons) and in drier years. These findings highlight the importance of vegetation degradation on modifying the ...
With environmental degradation and resource depletion becoming key impediments to global economic development, the green transformation of energy firms is on the horizon. According to the Energy Institute of the United Kingdom’s 2023 Statistical Yearbook of World Energy, worldwide energy demand increase...
Environmental degradation is a critical global issue that requires urgent action to mitigate its effects and preserve the planet for future generations. Alvi et al. (2023) evaluated the influence of environmental and non-environmental product trade on CO2 emissions in high and middle-income countries...
