Dr. Qaiser MaqsoodI’m Dr Qaiser Maqsood (PhD), a dedicated researcher and expert in Biological Sciences, Gardening, Bio-Diversity, Ecology, and Environmental Sciences. I’m much concerned about Environmental Pollution, Climate…
Creating a healthier and eco-friendly home is an opportunity to save our planet for future generations. Water conservation and keeping it pure for human consumption is our prime duty. In a world where environmental degradation is on its way, using sustainable practices is not just a choice but a responsibility. Although water remains conserved as…
There are many factors affecting herbicide carryover or residues in soil and plants like residue itself, some biotic (microbes, plants), abiotic (soil, moisture, light), and chemical (degradation process, half-life) factors. Herbicides destroy plants (herbs) and more specifically off-type plants or weeds. After destroying weed plants or limiting their growth, herbicide residues may persist in the…
It is the need of today to manage herbicide residue in soil and plants. This carryover may be buildup and may enter the food chain. Following practices can limit the adverse effects of herbicidal residues; 20 Ways to Manage Herbicide Residues Following practices can limit the effect of herbicidal residues on soil, plants, and animals….
Forests are important as they are a vibrant part of the earth’s natural resources. They cover one-third of all land on earth, providing dynamic organic infrastructure for some of the planet’s densest, most diverse collections of life. The area underwood is the index of the development and prosperity of a country. Forests cover approximately 230.48…
Living in this world with limited resources, we must consider the power of sustainable and green sources in our daily lives. You might have come across different single-use plastic products in your day-to-day life. However, all these are piling up plastic pollution and litter. Moreover, their use is a big blow to the limited resources….
Determination of herbicide residue is the measure to detect its toxicity level for plants and animals. Labels on herbicide containers often guide the interval between applying and planting a sensitive crop to know the effects of herbicide residues. However, in some cases, the determination of herbicide residue in the soil is important, either label does…
Forest fire is a blessing or curse, is a long debate. However, a group of naturalists has confirmed that at times, forest fire limits carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the atmosphere. Controlled forest fire/wildfire has a significant effect on vegetation coming forth. before going into this debate, we should discuss what actually forest fire is….
Air pollution not only contributes to respiratory disorders in humans and other animals and causes damage to buildings but it can also affect plants. The effects of air pollution on plants develop over time. How does Air Pollutants affect Plants Effects of Air Pollution on Plants Some plants are more susceptible to pollution damage than…
What is Photochemical Smog? Industrial and highly populated cities are mostly seen with brown haze usually at the time of dawn and dusk. A mixture of pollutants formed by the combination of nitrogen oxide, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), ozone, and peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) (CH3COOONO2) react with sunlight to create a brown haze called photochemical smog….
