Thesis: What are the effects of environmental pollution and the current or future prevention and control measures in developing countries?

A thesis cannot take the form of a question. Please review the lecture notes.

Example: The United States should put more pressure on industrialized countries to reduce carbon emissions.

Annotated Bibliography Comment by Jim & Carol: Not Bold

The environmental problems of developing countries are demonstrated by the article which is basically a report of health and environmental effects associated with the use of non-renewable energy sources. Anwar, 2009, asserts that the Government of Egypt (as one of the most affected developing countries) has introduced new policies that comprise of inter-sectorial collaboration, risk minimization, treatment of pollutants at source, and law enforcement mitigation procedures. Comment by Jim & Carol: No indent - only first line should be flush left with the margin. Additional lines must be indented five spaces.

Ezzati, M., & Kammen, D. M. (2012). The Health Impacts of Exposure to Indoor Air Pollution from Solid Fuels in Developing Countries: Knowledge, Gaps, and Data Needs. Environmental Health Perspectives, 110(11), 1057.

The health impacts of exposure to indoor air pollution in developing countries are addressed by Ezzati & Kammen, 2002, particularly from combustion of solid fuels like coal. Successful intervention strategies based on preventive measures and policies are put into the perspective of environmental protection through pollution control.

Khator, R. (2013). Environment As A Political Issue In Developing Countries: A Study Of Environmental Pollution In India–A Viewpoint. International Journal Of Environmental Studies, 23(2), 105.

This is an article provides great insight into the politicization of environmental protection measures in developing countries, as well as the effects of this move on the environmental policy outputs. According to Khator, 2013, environmental pollution prevention and control strategies have not achieved the much needed "politicization," in most developing countries.

Liaquat, A. M., Kalam, M. A., Masjuki, H. H., & Jayed, M. H. (2010). Potential emissions reduction in road transport sector using biofuel in developing countries. Atmospheric Environment, 44(32), 3869-3877. doi:10.1016/j.atmosenv.2010.07.003

Developing countries are currently facing severe energy insecurity, especially renewable energy. Liaquat, et.al. 2010 is an article which reveals how economic growth has encouraged air pollution in the road transport sector. Effects of air pollution are also cited by this source, but it recommends the use of biofuel powered automotives as the best solution. This environmental pollution is also touted as the best way for the developing countries to create more jobs and increase productivity through expansion of biofuel industries.

This is an article which examines how intergovernmental organizations help developing countries enhance their initiatives for environmental performance through promotion of the general idea for environmental sustainability. It also provides ideas on how developing countries can adopt the modern technologies that can be applied for the sole purpose of environmental pollution control and prevention.
