Environment

Environment refers to the surroundings of an object and every thing around us is our environment.

Natural Environment

The natural environment, commonly referred to simply as the environment, encompasses all living and non-living things occurring naturally on Earth or some region thereof.

OUR PRESENT SCENARIO

• Our planet is in trouble! Almost every day we seem to hear of yet another problem affecting the environment and what a list of problems!

• pollution, acid rain, global warming, the destruction of rainforests and other wild habitats, the decline and extinction of thousands of species of animals and plants....and so on.

Ideas Helps In Saving The Environment

Sort out your rubbish. Organic matter e.g. potato peelings, left over food, tea leaves etc. can be transferred straight to a compost heap in the garde and used as a good, natural fertiliser for the plants.

Try to avoid buying plastic. It's hard to recycle. One way to cut down on plastic is to refuse to use carrier bags.

Don't buy over-packed goods. Many things we buy have unnecessary amounts of plastic and paper around them.
