    Environment is the composition of both biotic and abiotic components, its holds everything together and creates a balance between flora and fauna. But now a days we human beings have caused a lot of issues to our environment. Especially with our growth, we tend to degrade the environment and destroy our own ecosphere. We do things like deforestation we also engage in causing various types of pollutions such as air pollution which is caused by constant emission of harmful gases from factories, we also dispose untreated toxic garbage directly into water bodies and landfills and this causes water and soil pollution respectively.

    With the increase in the amount of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases in the atmosphere we are facing global warming as a result of which the ice caps are melting also, we are experiencing hazards like the depletion of the ozone layer due to the emission of the harmful CFC from the coolers and refrigerators.

    Its high time for us to raise environmental awareness and take the necessary steps such as planting more tress reducing the use of fossil fuels which emit harmful gases and taking measures to reduce the emission of the greenhouse gases so that we can make our earth a healthy place life.
