how this environment comes on Earth ?!
Answers
Explanation:
The natural environment encompasses all living an non-living things occuring naturally, that means not artificial.
Answer: We live on a restless planet and cannot fully control or predict nature. Since the beginning of existence, we have
exploited nature by cutting innumerable trees to build infrastructure and by killing animals for food. We have
extracted minerals, crystals, and gems from the womb of the earth. We have taken and used whatever natural
wealth there is to take and are now facing the grave consequences of nature’s pushback. While it is impossible for
any country to grow without using natural resources such as fossil fuels, we must realize that the earth’s resources
are not limitless—they are depleting fast, and this threatens our existence on the planet that we call home.
The modern world is beset with serious environmental issues. Tsunamis and hurricanes are sweeping across several
parts of the globe, leading to a tragic loss of lives and destroying property worth millions. Closer home, recently,
violent dust storms swept across parts of north India killing hundreds of people and destroying several houses. The
damage recorded was the worst seen in the last two decades. One of the major causes of these deadly dust storms is
increasing desertification (the process by which an area turns into a desert) in several north Indian states. In fact,
given the high rate of desertification, we should be prepared for more intense and damaging dust storms in the
future!
Perhaps the most challenging issue of the moment is climate change and global warming. Our excessive use of
energy sources, such as coal and oil, have given rise to serious pollution problems and warming effects. Worse still,
the enormous amount of solid waste we generate not only increases pollution but also indirectly bolsters global
warming. Of late, India’s capital Delhi has been in news for its massive air pollution. We are struggling to cope with
the health risks it poses. It wouldn’t be far off the mark to state that we are on the brink of an environmental crisis
of sorts, and if we don’t take charge of the situation now, things can only go downhill from here.
This book has been specially created to make you—the young minds who will steer the future—aware of the
environmental issues we face and suggest simple solutions that go a long way in saving our natural resources. One
of the foremost things we can do to protect the planet, and therefore protect us, is to save energy, switch to more
sustainable energy sources (solar, wind, waste-to-energy), and reduce waste. This book is full of easy tips. It shows
us the way to a more sustainable future and encourages us to build a greener, safer world. The road ahead is certainly
an uphill climb, but there’s enough reason to keep our hopes alive.
