Environmental aspects of polymer science and engineering

It is evident that no single approach will be adequate and input is needed from a number of disciplines. Some thoughts are offered here concerning a few ways in which polymers have helped and might do so more in the future. A discussion concerning environmental implications of polymers has been presented. Some applications to the problem areas of developing climatefriendly energy sources and uses as well as in increasing supply of potable water will be considered.
