"Environment is a broad term and it consist of people, society and geographical area and culture values.
Stokols gave three approaches to define the environment-human relationship named as the minimalist approach, the instrumental approach and the last spiritual perspective.
The difference between minimalist and instrumental perspective of human-environmental relationship is huge because if we believe to minimalist approach then it basically states that both human and environment run parallel to each other and there is no control of environment on human behavior where as in instrumental approach it is stated that a human can use the environment according to his/her requirements and it basically consider environment as a service provider for all of us.
