Due to the non-biodegradability of plastic substances, coupled with poor waste management practices, plastic pollution has become a major environmental issue within the past decade. However, the negative effects of plastic pollution are rarely opposed, or the solutions proposed are costly or still damaging to the environment. New strategies must be undertaken to prevent irreparable environmental damage from disposable plastic products while maintaining and maximizing the benefits of plastics in specialized cases, such as medicine and public health. The Handbook of Research on Environmental and Human Health Impacts of Plastic Pollution is a collection of innovative research that assesses the negative impacts of plastic on the environment, human health, and ecosystems, and explores biotechnological approaches to solve plastic pollution. While highlighting topics including medical wastes, biodegradability, and phthalate exposure, this publication intends to provide readers with the latest solutions for reducing the burden of plastic on the environment. It is ideally designed for environmentalists, policymakers, instructors, researchers, graduate-level students, industrialists, and non-governmental organization professionals seeking current research on health and ecosystem concerns from the overconsumption of plastics.

Due to legal and consumer demands, eco-friendly resources that comply with environmental concerns while maintaining or improving performance are highly sought amongst manufacturers. Green materials are a specific material that are widely found in many product markets and are popular choices as alternative materials due to their recyclable, reusable, highly available, and corrosion-resistant features. These materials positively impact the environment through fewer emissions during the production process, positive carbon credits and energy recovery from incineration, and lower global warming effect. Extensive research is required to understand the full potential of these eco-friendly substances. Implementation and Evaluation of Green Materials in Technology Development: Emerging Research and Opportunities provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of environmentally friendly resources and applications within technology. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as life cycle analysis, nanomaterials, and environment management, this book is ideally designed for manufacturers, engineers, product developers, industrial practitioners, policymakers, researchers, academicians, students, and business and marketing associates seeking current research on the advancements and applications of green materials in future technology.

Este audiolibro está narrado en castellano. Varios autores de primer nivel unen sus voces en esta serie de relatos contra el acoso escolar por medio de historias de aprendizaje y superación. Un volumen absolutamente necesario y clave en un tema tristemente candente como es el bullying. En él encontraremos desde empujones hasta insultos pasando por amenazas, persecuciones en internet y humillaciones. Desde el bully hasta la víctima pasando por el testigo que se niega a denunciar.
