The environmental degradation, in fact, started with the propagation of human race, e.g., considering the mythological suggestion that the process of Adam and Eve who ate an apple and threw away the peels, which led to the beginning of the environmental degradation.This process of environmental degradation was accelerated with the development of socio­economic activities, e.g., agriculture, industrialization, drugs and pharmaceuticals, transport, civil construction including roads and buildings, etc., with growing population, the requirements of food grains and other consumer items increased greatly, leading to further environmental degradation.As long as the assimilation capacity of receiving water system, land, air, etc., was more than the pollution load, the importance of environmental degradation was not really appreciated.
