Environment- Causes, Affects and its Solutions

    Environment has been one of a hot topic for today discussion. Environment is getting in danger day by day because of our carelessness and ignorant behavior toward it.
    In general, Environment is something you familiar with. It's everything surround us that affect on our ability to live on the Earth- the air we breathe, the water we drink, the land we live, plants and animals. Helping the environment means protecting all kind of species of animals and plants and stabilized the biodiversity. 
    Everybody can help save the environment but before you get involve, you should be aware of some root causes that lead the environment toward this danger. There are at least three main causes that you should look out for and these are main causes that cause water, land and air pollution.
    The first problem possible cause is deforestation. Deforestation refers to the cutting, cleaning and the removal of rain-forest or related ecosystem into less diverse ecosystem. As more and more people were born. more and more trees were cut down to make room for them. People need more spaces for agricultural and industrial purpose. They cut down trees to build different kind of infrastructures and develop the country. They cut down trees then sell it for huge sums of money. In sort, all of these purposes have caused huge damage for the environment instead. As the matter of fact, tree provides a lot of benefits that are important o us and the Earth. It produces oxygen which is crucial for breathing. If the tree extinct, sooner or later our lives will also extinct.
   The second cause is garbage. When people throw things away, the garbage get buried under the ground or in the water. Some types of garbage are biodegradable but some are not. The non-biodegradable such as plastic, glass, styrofoam, aluminium or metal will stay on the Earth for thousands of year with compose into soil. Pretty soon there won't be much space on Earth because of the amount of garbage that increases everyday. Based on National Geographic Channel, per person produces 4,6 pounds of garbage everyday.
 The third is acid rain. The smoke that comes out of the industrial factories, agricultural chemical fertilizer or especially from vehicles that burned gasoline is one of the reasons for acid rain. Acid rain destroys buildings and harmful for human. It causes skin cancer or any kind of skin diseases. Moreover. the smoke can destroys the ozone layer which protects the Earth from UV-ultraviolet. 
    For results, all of these causes have created dangerous impacts on our lives. For example, garbage causes land and water pollution and many kind of serious illnesses which affects both our health and the Earth. Furthermore, deforestation causes climate change and global warming. 
    But even though problems have already been occurred, we still have some time to deal with this problem before it's too late.
     Firstly, Recycling is one of the best choices. Recycle means reduce or reuse all kind of garbage over and over again. Learn to reduce, reuse and recycle can helps you, your community and the environment by saving money, energy and resources. Recycling programs are available practically everywhere.
    Secondly, Planting more trees is important. As mentioned above, tree provides us with many benefits. It produces oxygen which is crucial for breathing, habitats for animals and food for living creatures. Tree also helps with global warming. It decreases the world temperature and regulates the seasons. Be sure to share all of these benefits with your friends and family. 
 In conclusion, the environmental problem has been a huge concern for not one country but the whole world. The environment needs help and we're the one to restore it. If we can sustain the environment fervently, the Earth will be the most convenience place to live.

What would be the effects of increasing the amount of agriculture? Why would these problems happen? Suggest some possible solutions.

    Nowadays, a booming population is one of the challenges for most countries around the world. But the main threat is climate change. The population is increasing so more food needs to be grown in order to response to the demand. However, growing more food or creating more farms is not as easy as we think it would be. It may fulfill our demands at one point but on the other hand, it causes green house gas emissions. This essay will examine the problem of increasing agriculture and suggest some solutions.
    A lack of food is a huge concern for people, especially farmers. They need to grow and produce more agricultural products for intake. So to deal with these problems, they tend to expand their lands by cutting down trees or using more chemical fertilizer for a quick and better outcome. But what they hadn't though of is that these kind of actions have amazingly increased green house emissions and therefore directly affected the crop yield it seeks to increase. This leads to several issues such as climate change and natural disasters. Ir-regulated seasons, drought and flood is causing food
shortages and price spikes in many parts of the world.
    To prevent these impacts from going further, we need to escalate possible and beneficial solutions. Actually, there are some solutions which should be used to ease these problems. First, natural fertilizer should be use more. Crops need fertilizer to grow well but if chemical fertilizer is bad for the environment, we should consider and change to use the natural ones instead. Natural fertilizer is environmentally friendly and safe for people.Even if we don't eat fertilizer but we eat what comes out of it- roots, leaves, fruits, vegetables or flowers. That's why we should use what is safe for our health. Moreover, Natural fertilizer will not affect the climate nor the atmosphere. Another solution is to use field schools to teach improved farming techniques. By joining the field-schools class, farmers will be well-educated and learn better and safer tips in growing crops. They will be able to use irrigation systems and breed more climate-resistant crops which are suitable to their region's climate. The final solution is to create more community projects. By organizing more community events or projects, both farmers and non-farmers will be able to participate in these projects and they will get to know better about agriculture. Community projects should be include teaming up to plants trees, do-it-yourself garden, breeding new types of crops or farmers gathering. By creating these kinds of projects, experienced farmers or scientists will be able to share their crucial experiences and tips on how to get better harvests.
    In conclusion, food shortage and climate change are such problems for the world. Despite having these problems, there are still ways to solve it. If we follow the right solutions and stop doing what destroys the Earth, our lives will be free from starvation, famine and global warming and the world will be a better place for today and tomorrow.
