A deep concern is expressed by everyone about the problem of environmental pollution and major part of the global community has a vested interest in supporting and sustaining any move for the protection of environment. The reasons for the aggravation of this problem are fast industrialization, demand for energy and exploitation of natural resources. When it comes to the hazards of environmental pollution, there is only a very thin dividing line between developed and developing countries. Today environmental pollution is posing serious threats to all kinds of diversities on earth in particular plants. The plant world is of vital importance for our planet. It is a worldwide priority aimed at better meeting the needs for food, livelihoods and nature.There is a need to manage plant resources more prudently, not only in quantity but also in quality. The demographic outburst is adding to this problem. The world population is expected to reach a level of 9 billion in a few decades as such, the challenges to the scientists are enormous.To meet the food demand of this fast-growing population, global food production will have to be doubled. The sustainability of food production depends on the sustainability of plant resources. Keeping in view the enormity of the problem and with a view to highlight its impact and to seek possible solutions this conference is organized by the Erciyes University in Turkey.The conference will cover discussions on the recent developments in the field of pollution and plant life and shall provide a platform for reviewing a number of issues which concern the future of plant life, especially in the light of growing environmental concerns
