The Environment

 

Environment includes living things, non-living things.

Environment defines as - The combination of external physical conditions that affect and influence the growth, development, behaviour, and survival of organisms.

Global warming has become an undisputed fact about our current livelihoods; our planet is warming up and we are definitely part of the problem. However, this isn’t the only environmental problem that we should be concerned about. All across the world, people are facing a wealth of new and challenging environmental problems every day. Some of them are small and only affect a few ecosystems, but others are drastically changing the landscape of what we already know.

 

If a human being keeps the environment safe and secure then environment keeps the human being safe and secure. There is a saying that What you give you get in return. Life is an ECHO, it s life cycle.

Now-a-days many depends on cement to build houses, malls etc. It’s became a concrete park which is causing major impact to the environment, Concrete causes damage to the most fertile layer of the earth.

An environmental disaster or ecological disaster is defined as a catastrophic event regarding the natural environment that is due to human activity. Environmental disasters show how the impact of humans alteration of the land has led to widespread and/or long-lasting consequences. These disasters have included deaths of wildlife, humans and plants, or severe disruption of human life or health, possibly requiring migration.

Few of the people plant trees to decorate their gardens with beauty or to provide the extra shade in summer. But there are many benefits from trees than what that we might think like reducing climate change, purifying air, colling down the streets, natural air conditioning, saving water, preventing water pollution, providing shelter for animals and many more.

Pollution is also another cause for the extinction of animals. It usually enters through the atmosphere, earth, or some body of water. Chemicals can enter the air, water, and soil when they are produced, used or disposed. Pollution from chemicals can cause animals to become weakened, or can even cause death. It can also cause problems in the food chain too like bio-accumulation. Bioaccumulation is the gradual accumulation of substances, such as pesticides or other chemicals, in an organism.

Carbon dioxide can be used as a carbon source for many small chemicals that are used to make everyday items. chemicals are then used in other processes to make compounds like polyethylene, which you might find in everyday plastic items. Plastic leads to destroying the marine life and polluting the earth. Millions of tons of plastic are in the environment as waste, especially in the oceans and seas. More than 80% of marine litter is plastic which kills up to 1 million seabirds and 100,000 marine creatures each year by ingesting it. Carbon dioxide is a naturally occurring greenhouse gas. … An increase in the amount of carbon dioxide creates an an excessive quantity of greenhouse gases that trap additional heat. This trapped heat leads to melting ice caps and rising ocean levels, which cause flooding.

A sweeping report assessing the state of the natural world found that humans are having an “unprecedented” and devastating effect on global biodiversity, with about 1 million animal and plant species now threatened with extinction.

The report, which did not list individual species, found that 25 percent of mammals, more than 40 percent of amphibian species, nearly 33 percent of sharks and 25 percent of plant groups are threatened with extinction. Based on these proportions, the researchers estimated that approximately 1 million animal and plant species could die out, many “within decades.”

Environmental protection is a practice of protecting the natural environment on the individual, organizational or governmental levels, for the benefit of both the environment and humans. Environmentalism, a social and environmental movement, addresses environmental issues through advocacy, education and activism.
