Environment refers to the entire physical and biological world. In which organisms live, grow, thrive and develop their natural tendencies. The truth is that the existence of life is basically dependent on the environment. Changes in the physical, chemical or biological characteristics of any element of the environment that are harmful to humans or other beings is called environmental pollution.Environmental pollution has taken the form of a worldwide problem today and in India also this problem is seen in various forms. Due to industrial and technological development, rapid population growth, urbanization etc., the environmental pressure started increasing. Today, the greatest need is "destruction-free development" but due to human activities, environmental imbalance increases, which pollutes the environment and endangers the existence of other animals and flora including humans. Environmental pollution affects human health, causing fatal diseases. पर्यावरण का तात्पर्य समूचे भौतिक एवं जैविक विश्व से है। जिसमें जीवधारी रहते हैं, बढ़ते हैं, पनपते हैं और अपनी स्वाभाविक प्रवृत्तियों का विकास करते हैं। सत्य तो यह है कि जीवन का अस्तित्व मूलतः पर्यावरण पर निर्भर है। पर्यावरण के किसी भी तत्व के भौतिक, रासायनिक अथवा जैविक विशेषताओं में परिवर्तन जो मानव या अन्य प्राणियों के लिए हानिकारक हो पर्यावरण प्रदूषण कहलाता है। पर्यावरण प्रदूषण आज एक विश्वव्यापी समस्या का रूप ले चुका है और भारत में भी यह समस्या विविध रूपों में दृष्टिगत होती है। औद्योगिक एवं तकनीकी विकास, तीव्र जनसंख्या वृद्धि, शहरीकरण आदि के कारण पर्यावरण के दबाव में निरन्तर बढ़ोतरी होने लगी। आज सबसे बड़ी आवश्यकता है ‘‘विनाश रहित विकास’’ किन्तु मानवीय क्रियाकलापों से पर्यावरणीय असंतुलन बढ़ता ही जाता है जिससे पर्यावरण प्रदूषित हो जाता है और मानव सहित अन्य प्राणियों एवं वनस्पतियों का अस्तित्व खतरे में पड़ता जा रहा है। पर्यावरण प्रदूषण मानवीय स्वास्थ्य को प्रभावित करता है जिससे घातक रोग उत्पन्न होते हैं।

Poverty in underdeveloped countries are characterized by rapid population growth. In Indonesia, the government's role in population to be submitted to the National Population and Family Planning (BKKBN). One of the programs is to Increase Revenue BKKBN Family’s Welfare (UPPKS). From 2010 to 2013 a decrease in the number of groups UPPKS. Based on the problems identified factors researchers focused on strength (strength), weakness (weakness), chance (opportunity) and threats (threat) in order to optimize the achievement of program outcomes UPPKS the Directorate. The purpose of the study was to look at factors weaknesses, strengths, threats and opportunities and choosing the right strategy to optimize the achievement of program UPPKS. The method used is the SWOT and AHP. The results showed the best strategy is derived from the power factor and the opportunities (SO): (1) take advantage of the availability of technical guidance for the development of work by local partners; (2) maximizing the data base to cooperate with other agencies that have programs that are compilance empowerment; (3) utilizing the integrated use of the website to attract cooperation as a form of technological development and utilization of information. Utilizes the integrated use of the website to attract cooperation is priority.

With the strengthening of human activities, more and more sulfur had entered soil system. The sulfur pollution of soil had threaten environment and human health. This paper reviews the status, sources and danger of sulfur pollution soils, and the physical-chemical remediation and bioremediation technology are also discussed. In addition, the future study on remediation technology for sulfur pollution soils was prospected.

Despite the considerable advances in molecular biology over the past several decades, the nature of the physical–chemical process by which inanimate matter become transformed into simplest life remains elusive. In this review, we describe recent advances in a relatively new area of chemistry, systems chemistry, which attempts to uncover the physical–chemical principles underlying that remarkable transformation. A significant development has been the discovery that within the space of chemical potentiality there exists a largely unexplored kinetic domain which could be termed dynamic kinetic chemistry. Our analysis suggests that all biological systems and associated sub-systems belong to this distinct domain, thereby facilitating the placement of biological systems within a coherent physical/chemical framework. That discovery offers new insights into the origin of life process, as well as opening the door toward the preparation of active materials able to self-heal, adapt to environmental changes, even communicate, mimicking what transpires routinely in the biological world. The road to simplest proto-life appears to be opening up.

Some economists argue that high population density and rapid population growth are not in themselves impediments to economic development. On the basis of a quantitative analysis of historical data, Simon Kuznets, for instance, concludes that, historically, rates of economic development have not significantly correlated, either positively or negatively, with rates of population growth. Similarly, E. E. Hagen observes that “nowhere in the world has population growth induced by rising income been sufficient to halt the rise in income. … The historical record indicates that rise in income in these societies has failed to occur not because something thwarted it, but because no force has been present to cause income to rise.

This is the first published report concerning reproduction and survival using life table analyses of fertility and survival for Muscina stabulans maintained under laboratory conditions with artificial diets. The intrinsic rate of growth, reproduction rate and average generational time were obtained, suggesting a rapid population growth under these rearing conditions. These findings permitted the creation of time models of survival and oviposition, as well as a quantitative estimate of the adaptation capacity of this species.

As these days there is a lot of effect because of environmental pollution and other factors like work pressure human health problems are increasing to a maximum extent. Technology takes a major role in monitoring the health of a individual. This helps to have a copy of recorded values and this helps in taking immediate steps to cure the condition or a precautions needed. As it important to monitor some parameters of the patient we use some sensors. The bluetooth module helps in collecting data from the sensors and sends it to the mobile through Bluetooth and this data can be uploaded to the cloud using Mobile data. This gives perfect data for the doctors to take a decision and give a suggestion to the patient.
