5th Global Webinar on Environmental Science will be hosted on March 26, 2022, in Rome, Italy. The panel of speakers will be delivering their presentations on their recent research related to environmental science, ecology, geology water management and recycling. The current state of knowledge, its impact on the future will be discussed in detail. Meetings Int. invites all experts to be part of this online conference and make it a perfect platform for knowledge sharing and networking.
Session 01: Environmental Science
Environmental science has shown over several decades that society has overshot what the Earth can provide sustainably. The indicators summarized here show we clearly have an environmental crisis, declining ecosystem services, and face the sobering possibility that by the end of this century – due to our actions – two-thirds of life on Earth may be extinct. Key indicators include the ecological footprint, degrading ecosystem services, and exceeded planetary boundaries, and the results they show are grim.

Session 02: Recycling
Recycling is the process of collecting and processing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash and turning them into new products. Recycling can benefit your community and the environment.

Session 03: E-waste & Waste Management
Almost all e-wastes contain some form of recyclable material, including plastic, glass, and metals; however, due to improper disposal methods and techniques, these materials cannot be retrieved for other purposes. If e-waste is dismantled and processed in a crude manner, its toxic constituents can wreak havoc on the human body. Processes such as dismantling components, wet chemical processing, and incineration are used to dispose of the waste and result in direct exposure and inhalation of harmful chemicals.

Session 04: Biogeochemistry
The basic premise of biochemistry is that life emerged on Earth where there were opportunities for catalysis to expedite the release of chemical energy in water-rock–organic systems. In this framework, life is a planetary response to the dilemma that cooling decreases the rates of abiotic processes to the point that chemical energy becomes trapped. Catalysis via metabolism releases the trapped energy, and life benefits by capturing some of the energy released. Out of necessity, biochemical processes have geochemical origins, and biochemistry asserts that these origins can be revealed by mapping reaction mechanisms onto deep time. We propose five principles that should help guide research in the emerging field of biochemistry.

Session 05: Marine Sciences
Marine Sciences Session covers the multidisciplinary study of physical and biological aspects of the ocean and seas. Presentations enhance intelligence and information by covering a wide range of topics, including ecosystem dynamics; ocean currents, waves, and geophysical fluid dynamics; plate tectonics and the geology of the seafloor; and fluxes of various chemical substances and physical properties within the ocean and across its boundaries and marine environment.

Session 06: Legal aspects related to the environment
Environmental law is a complex and interlocking body of treaties, conventions, statutes, regulations, and common law that, very broadly, operate to regulate the interaction of humanity and the rest of the biophysical or natural environment, toward the purpose of reducing the impacts of human activity, both on the natural environment and on humanity itself.
Topics we cover:

Session 07: Ecosystem and Restoration
Ecosystems are the web of life on this earth. The great environmental activist and leader of the Chipko movement Sunder Lal Bahuguna once said, ‘Ecology is the permanent economy’ and keeping his words in mind we must help in maintaining the ecosystem, as it comprises of all the living organisms and includes forests, rivers, wetlands, grasslands, estuaries, and coral reefs. A major reason behind this is unnecessary interaction between the wildlife and human beings, and the reasons for this could be increasing deforestation; pollution in water bodies; draining of wetlands and peatlands; degrading coasts and overfishing in farmlands. Thus, these wrongs need to be undone for the world to move forward and eliminate alien species which are coming up, as well as deal with issues like climate change. Consequently, it is because of this reason ecosystems must be restored.

Session 08: Environmental Sustainability
Environmental sustainability is the rate of renewable resource harvest, pollution creation, and non-renewable resource depletion that can be continued indefinitely and is the most vital for the survival of living organisms. Human activities like industrialization, deforestation, and overexploitation of natural resources by exploding population, depriving agricultural practices, and much more have led the environment to the brink of collapse driving world nations to arms to prevent further deterioration of the environment and restore its stability. Many approaches like waste recycling and effluent treatment systems have been tried to alleviate the situation but only met with little or no success. Global issues comprise concerns about GHG mitigation, climate change, and renewable energy, while the location-specific issues are soil erosion, water management, soil quality, and air and water pollution.
