dc.description.abstractThe environment, including the air, soil, water, vegetation and other facets constitute an essential life support system on which man depends. The environment which hitherto was subjected only to natural changes with little or no negative impact in its constituents is now being subjected to tremendous amount of pressure, both in terms of what is put into it and what is drawn out of it, thus endangering the health and livelihood of man and undermining sustainable development. Though the world is already seeing the grave effects of degraded environment induced by man on earth ecosystem, the most serious impacts of these abuses will be on future generations if man today refuse to factor-in, the concept of sustainability in his interaction with the environment. This study is being undertaken in order to highlight the implications of man's actions on the environment for the purpose of sustainable development. This is germane because the link between environmental health and sustainable development needs to be emphasized in other to develop policies which are not only complementary in these areas, but are also mutually beneficial both at national and global levels.en_US
