Environmentis the second home of both animate and inanimate matter. Air pollution biodiversity, ecosystem restoration and earth care are all issues that are closely associated with maintenance of a clean and sustainable environment. Destruction of wildlife habitats, deforestation, expanding populations and adverse climate changes allow easy passages for viral infections from animal to man. The cycle is: deforestation---loss of habitat---increased human and animal interaction----viral transmission. In the last five decades, the rich natural resources of the globe have declined by at least half. Overpopulation, global warming and wildlife sustainment have, therefore, been primary topics of global interest.
