IJEP provides an international forum in the field of environment and pollution and addresses early and medium-term challenges involving scientific prediction, modelling and assessment. It focuses on ground-breaking research in the science of environmental pollution, at the early scientific stage. It is one of three key journals which together offer complete coverage of environmental issues: IJETM focuses on technical/engineering, policy and management solutions for environmental problems, and IJGEnvI focuses on future, longer-term environmental scenarios, ecological economics, climate change and biodiversity.
Topics covered include
- Review and assessment of policies
- Strategy for policy making
- Formulation of national/international environmental protection policy
- Comparative legal aspects of pollution
- Assessment of risks from water, soil and air pollution; effective and viable remedies
- Protection of soil and groundwater
- Ecosystem research
- Waste disposal strategies
- Ecological impact of pollutants
- Clean technologies
- Technological hazards
- Evaluation of environmental risk and safety
- Environment and sustainable development
- Environmental education and training
Objectives
The objectives of IJEP are to establish an effective channel of communication between policy makers, government agencies academics and research institutions and persons concerned with the complex issues of environment and pollution, and to provide a forum for them to disseminate information and to learn from each other|s work. The international dimension is emphasised in order to overcome cultural and national barriers and to meet the needs of accelerating technological change and changes in the global economy.
Readership
Professionals, academics, researchers and policy makers.
Contents

There are broad implications for communities in this sense and far beyond their local environment. Research in International Journal of Environment and Pollution has combined scientific visual analysis with participatory planning techniques and offers a new model for rural development that is both technically informed and grounded in the lives of residents. The work focuses on the "rural scene", which is not just about how rural areas look, but about how they function and how we experience them. The research proposes that enhancing rural environments should not be just a cosmetic task, but should include strategic interventions that have a wide range of goals.
