The term environment can be defined as the combination of both the living and nonliving things that surround an organism and consequently affect the growth and development of the organism. It should be noted that the environmental problems facing the world today are enormous and protecting the environment is a problem that should concern all the people around the world, which is in a continous change. A change that affects mostly the environment and without knowledge, us the people. We need to focus more on the environment and we need to realise that not protecting it, we are really not protecting us. The environment represents a basic element of our human existence and it is also the interference between some natural elements with the elements created by the human activity. We are in connection with the environment, and the way we treat it, affects us. As a result of the demographic explosion, and the industrial boom, the necessity for working materials and energy has suffered a huge increase, and the intense exploitation of the Earth`s resources, reveals , obviously, and unbalanced environment. We only think at the profit we obtain, but we don`t think at the consequences of our actions. Everything we do it affects us. Keeping a proper quality of the environment, protecting it-as a necessity of survival and progress-represents a major problem and it needs the proper attention and concern. We need to decrease the activities that have a negative effect on the environment. In order to protect the environment, we need to realise how much a polluted ecosystem affects our life. For example, a polluted air affects our health. The pressure of the human activities is increasing. The industrial development, the changes, the updating of the traveling etc., all of these are harming the environment. We need to realise this, and we need to start making changes. Our disregard about the environment is destroying it. It is slowly destroying the whole world. Because the environment, means life, without it we can`t live . The environment is our friend, but we treat it as we would treat our worst enemy. If we want to see a change in these world, we need to be the change! In conclusion, the world`s future is doubtful and if we don`t start to make changes, the planet and the people are facing a huge disaster. We need to create a healthy life, and have a healthy environment for us, and for the next generations.
