Environment is a combination of natural material factors such as physics,
chemistry, biology that exist outside of human's subjective will, and artificial
factors including the overall relationship between people and people who have
relationships. closely related to each other, affecting the existence and
development of humans and organisms.
We are living in a large ecosystem that has a myriad of species and plants. While
some people may argue that animals and plants do not matter without plants, there
would no oxygen for life, and without bees to pollinate flowers, there would be no
fruits. Coral reefs are protecting us from cyclones and tsunamis, while trees also
clean the air by filtering particulates out of the air and by trapping them onto their
leaves and bark .
For millions of years, nature provided us with everything for a better life and
starting from food, light, air, furniture to beautiful landscapes, waterfalls and
forests. Ecosystems help us to do farming and to grow crops and vegetables. Our
wastes have been absorbed and decomposed as compost for agriculture. Humans
have been served by the environment in many ways and are still using nature for
various personal purposes.
Pollution is the contamination of the environment by introduction of contaminants
that can cause damage to environment and harm or discomfort to humans or other
living species.
Urban expansion and overexploitation in the sea are one of the main for the
disappearance of animals and plants.
On land, trees are being cut down to make way for urban expansion, leading to the
destruction of natural habitats. For example, the media has revealed many
instances of wild elephants aggressively attacking people from mountainous areas
in Vietnam. These attacks were caused by locals clearing up huge plots of wild
forests for planting crops and raising livestock, which destroyed the habitats of the
elephants.
In the sea, overexploitation such as overfishing is responsible for the extinction of
aquatic species. In fact, with advanced technology like GPS and big boats, humans
are dragging nets across the ocean floor, which picks up everything including a
non-target catch such as sea turtles ,coral and small animals, which is destructive to
future habitats and ecosystems in the ocean.
To reduce these problems , people should have awareness of protecting the
environment
Governments can propose the introduction of tax incentives to go green. To be
more specific, they should impose a levy on the distribution of single-use plastic
bags in retail outlets so that it helps to reduce the indiscriminate use of plastic bags.
Solar power is a fantastic solution. Now that solar radiation is at a climactic peak,
we can reap power from the sun using solar panel systems. These range from home
systems to larger scale systems powering entire communities and cities.
