Environmental Consequences of Crop Residue Burning and Its Threats to Urbanization

Le résumé fourni par la source

Crop residue burning and urban sustainability threats are vastly interrelated themes that have predominant impacts on environmental quality, public health, social justice, and resource fulfillment. Over recent years, CR burning has become a common practice in developing countries. Due to the lack of a proper disposal mechanism for CR, the farmer burns them at agricultural farm sites and releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which poses a great threat to the environment. Burning crop residue is a severe ecological issue that impacts both rural and urban regions substantially. Crop residue burning is a ubiquitous agricultural practice in numerous parts of the world, especially in developing nations, used to clear fields rapidly and manage the crop residues. These practices will operate in the short term, which has substantial long-term impacts on atmospheric conditions, soil health, and global (CH4) dynamics. Furthermore, the present study evaluates and elaborates on the environmental consequences of crop residue burning and its threats to urbanization.
