civilization in various forms either in solid or liquid. We have generated tones of waste before we find the better and proper way to dispose the waste. People are expose to all kinds of risks in their daily live such as underground water pollution, methane gas emission, air pollution, exploration of new landfill site and other human health problems due to the increasing of waste generation. Unfortunately, simple expedient solutions are no longer sufficient to solve the disposal problems as society becomes

However, there are many areas that need improvement to achieve better governance in water management.

Nowadays, poor water quality, water shortage and water-related disaster are the three main concerns related to current and future water resources (UNESCO, 2003). The concept of sustainable involves the tolerance between social, environment, economical and the needs. Hence, the concept of sustainable water system implemented for low cost alternative to develop new sources of high quality of water and mitigating environment pollution. Improvement of greywater management are needed for these implementation
However, it still cannot avoid some issues such as the piracy and terrorist issues. Besides that, the increasing of the ships and other maritime related activity will bring the issue of the environmental pollution issue. It will bring the threats of maritime pollution because of the accidental spills, illegal dumping of waste, and so on. As well as, that will influence the health of the human and organism inside the sea. Therefore, to address maritime security concern requires international
the earthquake and tsunami on 11 March 2011. It is stressful to Japan to recover his country. This disaster resulted in deterioration in the Japanese corporation from within and outside the country.

When the product is manufactured the machines usually give off carbon dioxide. This is negative because CO2 is the gas that causes global warming, when too much is released into the atmosphere.

Many TNCs have their factories in China, this is a reason why China is one of the most polluted countries in the world. One of Apple’s main suppliers of touchscreens for their iPod and iPhones, in

semi-arid areas. Erosion can lead to environmental damage through sedimentation, pollution and flooding. Furthermore, eroded soils may lose about 75-80% of the soil carbon content and this eventually will cause emission of carbon to the atmosphere (R.C.P Morgan, 2005). This environmental effect has been environmental concern such as in China, about one-third of the total cultivated surface is undergoing serious water and wind erosion (Pimentel, 1993). Soil erosion is the process that occur naturally
1 Background of Study Environment pollution is one of the major problem that faced by many country in this world. Pollution is defined as undesirable change in the physical, chemical and biological characteristics of all components of an environment (Fatuyi et.al.,2011; Aboriba, 2001). One of the problems is the oil spillage pollution. Environment pollution due to oil spill is one of the frequent problem happened in country that has petroleum source like Malaysia, Nigeria and Iraq.
