Air Pollution's Toll on Forests & Crops

James J. Mackenzie

In this book, some of the most respected researchers in their fields present empirical evidence documenting the role of air pollution in causing damage to forest trees and crops. Contributing authors document and analyzes forest decline in Europe and the Eastern United States as well as ozone's injury to California's pines. In the final chapter, MacKenzie and El-Ashry propose an integrated strategy to reduce pollution levels based on improved energy efficiency, abatement technology, and the use of non-fossil energy technologies. This strategy takes into account other critical problems, such as increasing oil imports, failure to attain clean air goals in U.S. cities , and the green house effect.
