Abstract

Recent increase in the amount of various kinds of waste from humans influences significantly on the interactions in earth system, causing the changes to environment. The global environmental and waste problems such as acid rain , CO2 emission, underground CO2 sequestration, geological disposal of high level nuclear waste and water and soil pollution are focused on.
