Abstract

The soil, water and air pollution are posing a huge threat to soil, underground water aquifers, oceans, various ecosystems, food chain, human, animals (land, aquatic both), various species health and our environment. Efficiently recapturing carbon emissions through agroforestry, increasing area under forests along with increasing the use of renewable sources in hybrid mode can put a halt on this pattern. Biogas/Biofuels along with necessary engine changes, can control vehicular carbon emissions to a great extent. There is need to increase use of vermi-compost, in-situ crop residue management techniques, green manuring, farm yard/poultry manures, pulse-cereal intercropping/diversification, eco-friendly integrated pest management techniques, biodegradable plastic, jute bags and use of crop residue biochar, sunflower seed husk and its biochar as a bioremediation to treat industrial waste with heavy metals. A new and innovative eco-friendly Parkash Bioherbal water reservoir is proposed. Neem, Moringa oleifera and seaweed products can be used as biopesticides, bioinsecticides, biofertilizers to enhance crop growth in an organic way. The technologies and implementation to minimize and treat industrial/domestic waste at source before discharge into the marine system are urgently required so as to enhance the oceans’ capacity to maintain carbon cycle.
