Mega cities: Problems & Prospects (Paperback)

Our mother Earth has a finite carrying capacity. For our sustenance she is supplying clean water for drinking, fresh air to breathe and arrangement for food and shelter for sustenance. As time passes, population has been growing rapidly, thus prompting the growth global production, consumption and increasing of load to mother earth. If the load exceeds the carrying capacity it will trigger back to the human civilization and ultimately the system will be collapsed. According to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, the direction of spontaneous change in load pattern in an isolated system of mother earth is towards maximum disorder which is rather called as environmental disorderliness. The task for new paradigm of development has been a model for the solution through clean energy technology in the connecting urban continuum. All these discussion has been presented in several Chapters in a coherent manner of this post-doctoral research work.
