3 Common Environmental Problems

With the advancement of mankind to modernity, it has


achieved great things that have led us to where we are today.
Unfortunately, our actions had consequences which caused
distress to our Mother Nature altering the natural ways of the
ecosystem. Today, I have gathered 3 environmental problems
that need to be given plenty of attention as to avoid further
damage to the fauna and fiona.
As more and more infrastructures are being built, it also
leads to the depletion of many trees, making more space for
constructions. For several decades, deforestation has greatly
caused problematic events such as soil erosion, flooding,
animal migration and many more. Furthermore, considering
that forests accumulate almost 31% of Earth’s total land area, it
is a very crucial aspect of our ecosystem because it purifies the
air we breathe, prevents erosion, and serves as a habitat to a
diverse array of plants and animals.
There are several things we can do to reduce the impact of
this catastrophe. Advocating about this concern will make more
people aware of it and the more volunteers we will get. We
should support companies that are dedicated to reducing
deforestation because they will get most of the work done.
Buying more produce from local farmers will surely reduce the
demand for plain and bare land.
Industrial waste and vehicle emissions are one of the
major factors causing pollution. Pollution comes in several
forms, namely; air, water and land pollution. All of these types
are a threat to our health and well being. It has destroyed the
purity of the sea, the beauty of our highlands and the
atmosphere we respire. We must end this so as to not further
worsen the current situation. To do so, we ourselves should
change our ways. This can be done by practising the 3Rs and
using recyclables. Additionally, those who would prefer walking
or cycling rather than taking public transportation can help
lessen the toxins in our air. Using the media and network to
spread awareness will draw in more supporters and serve as a
wake-up call.
There is no one other to blame for these problems, other
than ourselves. With the rapid multiplication of humans, it has
caused devastating consequences such as food shortage and
ecological degradation. It also makes society more prone to
several diseases and unemployment. To solve this, the
government must be strict in implementing laws regarding the
number of childbirth. Teenagers should be given sex education
to enlighten them of all aspects of reproduction. Avoid hoarding
to ensure others can also buy the same amount of goods.
Abortion must be legalised for women who are not ready to be
a mother.
We are creating our own problems. And in return, these
would come to bite us back. Our activities have caused
disturbance to the prosperity of our motherland thus harming
the lives of the fauna and flora. All of us need to start taking
these issues seriously and focus on multiple methods
eradicating it. Only this will be resolved after we contribute to
the environment equally. Once this happens, order and wellness
may visit Earth once more.
