The hydrosphere the largest body of the biosphere is in perilous state. Indiscriminate use of water in agriculture, industries, households, etc. has resulted in water scarcity. Water scarcity has coupled with water pollution. Whatever little water is left for drinking is infested with deadly pollutants, both chemicals and biological. Most of the ills humanity suffers from are owing to water pollution. Climate change has further intensified water crises in the form of accelerated glacier melt, fury of floods and impairment of overall water cycle of the biosphere. Yet people and their organizations have been attempting to respond to water crises the globe is in the grips of. Some of the responses are exemplary and could help us avert water crises but in order to put the hydrological cycle back into order we need to get rid of the vicious cycle of climate change and global warming. Efficient resource management significant curtailment in carbon emissions and enhanced carbon sequestration could be instrumental in controlling the negative factors responsible for climate change and global warming and help restore climate order of the earth in which the hydrosphere would resume its life enhancing and life sustaining role on earth and would turn to be the most important resource as usual of human progress and happiness.

Sustainable rural development through forward and backward integration and technological intervention in India/Madhur Jain. Agricultural communication is lifeline of agriculture. Communication intervention is phenomenal for agricultural development. Without an effective communication system agriculture itself would be in jeopardy. Well thought out effective, perspective based and meaningful communication intervention is a must for development of sustainable agriculture. Since agricultural development is inevitably linked with rural development, communication intervention in the former sector would articulate into the latter. India in fact the real India dwells in villages. Rural development basically articulates in the meaningful development of most of India. Rural character of India and agriculture at the heart of rural India represent soul of India. The book presented to the academic world of agricultural communication attempts to explore many opportunities for sustainable agriculture and rural development applying the many facets of communication intervention. Trends in agricultural extension, participatory rural appraisal, community radio, cyber extension, technology adoption, role of ICT, sustainable development models, ITK utility of mass media, poverty alleviation, Knowledge management, communicational attributes, communicational behaviour, animate energy, gender-based development, public-private partnership, etc. are some of the crucial issues elaborated in different chapters contributed by eminent scholars active in the field of communication and rural development. This book could be regarded as one of the landmark publications in communication intervention for sustainable agriculture and rural development. (jacket).
