Humans, in their overzealous attempts to develop the world around them, have set in motion the process of its deterioration. The physical environment, including the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we ear is becoming increasing polluted. Compared to a century ago, there are a lot more people in the world and each person is using more resources, producing more wasted and causing more negative impact on the environment. That adds up, over the years, to many problems such as water shortages, air pollution, water pollution, and more exotic and uncertain problems like the depletion of the ozone layer and global warming.
Every environmental problems has causes. The main factor that leads to the environmental problem is the acts of the humankind. We, the humankind did not apprecaite the give of our God by destroying and abusing the natural resources. Everyday, papers print articles about environmental issues such as companies illegally dumping toxic waste, oil tankers sinking and losing their cargo, and deserts advancing and drying up lakes. Thanks to the influnce of humans, many animals and plants died.
With the global population growth and rapid economic development, much of the world's natural resources are being depleted at an unsustainable rate. One of these resources is water. Previously seen as an infinite renewable resource, the situation is now reversed. Water is now a precious and finite resource, which requires urgent attention to ensure sustainable use. Why does it happen? All the credits go to us, again. Those people that use the water irrationally are abusing the water without thinking twice about others that dont even have the chance to use it.
Other thant that, animals like tiger is in danger os extinction across the world. Under threat of fire, habitat destruction, hunting and poaching, environment changes, many other species are becoming endangered. Forest are mainly to accommodate new housing estates and industrial parks. With the advancement of science and technology, we are able to build more factories. The thoughtless and selfisha ctions of human beings have damaged the habitat of the wild animals without concerning the effects.
The polluted air causes manyt health problems for people. Because of deforestation, the oxygen level in the air also decreases. People develop breathing difficulties and the weather is also much hotter beacuse there are no more trees to provide shade.
To prevent these problems from becoming worse, numerous wise and effective solutions were needed. As consumers, we should make an effort to buy only environmental friendly goods. We should avoid products that are disposable and those contain elements that may harm the environment. Instead, we should buy only those can be resued or recycled and are biodegradable.
We need to resude the consumption of water because waste-water treatment is expensive and untreated waste-water may become a source of pollutiion. Some cities have already begun recycling waste-water. We should install water-saving flush systems in our homes and use water wisely.
Depletion of forest leads to the extinction of many rare species. The government must enforce strict laws to prevent illegal companies to cut down the tree unwisely. The government must also encourage the people to plant more trees and organize replanting programmers to ensure that the future generation wil have trees around them.
Every little action on our part can go a long way to protect the environment. Remember., the success or failure of preventing the environmental problem from becoming worse lies entirely in our hands. If we all get together and make an effort to save the environment, we can make a big difference.
