Answer 2

Answer:

It s true that environment affects communication. Weather, temperature, location and surrounding all play a major role in articulating the major aspects of communication, and often filtering sound. Foggy, or too smoky weather can be a barrier to communication, similarly too much light or heat also affects the proper articulation of communication. If someone is uncomfortable in an atmosphere or does not feel like communicating, then nothing can be done.
