It is no doubt that there are numerous activities done by humans that severely impact the environment. This essay attempts to shed light on the driving factors behind this tendency before outlining several possible measures that should be adopted to tackle it.
There are two primary ways human activities contribute to environmental recession.First of all, deforestation is one of the most significant ways people damage the environment. It is driven primarily by urbanization, exploiting natural resources or public awareness.It could lead to soil depletion, climate change, the green house effect,disrupt the food chain and so on; all of them bring lots of harmful impacts to all living things on earth.For example, every year, in many parts of the world, being experience hundreds to thousands of natural disasters, typically in Singapore that regularly witness dozens of storms per year.In addition, many species lose their habitat, exhausting food and water that make them die gradually and on the brink of extinction.Another common activity is that employing single use plastic,which must be taken thousands of years to decompose.Despite having many policies to minimize the number of plastic items used by switching to organic materials, it remains unchanged.For example, in Vietnam, you could see plastic items everywhere as on the road, river or along the beach, as a consequence, environment pollution like water and soil is becoming more and more serious and having strong influence on living species, especially for aquatic creatures.
To combat this worrying issue the following essential steps should be taken.To begin with, government can enforce environmental regulations, which limit pollution and encourage sustainable agriculture and forests to conserve biodiversity while meeting human needs.Moreover, raising awareness of people, combined with education for teenagers is a vital key to protecting the environment effectively.Other solutions areassuring people switch from single use plastic to reusable containers through environmental campaigns by propagating the benefits of reusable materials and prohibiting hunting endangered animals; as a result, environmental degradation might be reduced and also improved.
In conclusion, human activities have severely damaged the environment through deforestation and overuse of plastics. By embracing sustainable practices and raising awareness, people can protect the Earth for future generations.
