What You Can Do

When you see litter in the streets

And the air smells of pollution
When you feel like it’s all piling up
Remember there is a solution

There’s something each of us can do

To keep the rivers clean
To keep fresh the air we breathe
And keep the forests green

Help clean a beach

Or recycle bottles and cans
Learn about the problems we face
And help others understand

It doesn’t have to be a lot

If we each just do our share
So take time out on Earth Day
To show the Earth you care

6. Deforestation is the permanent removal of trees to make
room for something besides forest. This can include clearing
the land for agriculture or grazing, or using the timber for fuel,
construction or manufacturing.

Other Environmental Issues

1.A flash flood is a rapid flooding of low-lying areas:
washes, rivers, dry lakes and depressions. It may be caused by
heavy rain associated with a severe thunderstorm, hurricane,
tropical storm.
2. Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process that affects all
landforms. In agriculture, soil erosion refers to the wearing
away of a field's topsoil by the natural physical forces of water
and or through forces associated with farming activities such as
tillage. Causes of Soil Erosion:
 Deforestation
 Building of Roads
 Agriculture
 Urbanization
 Mining
3. Coral reef destruction is defined as the degradation (and
potential mass death) of the ocean’s corals. It is normally
caused by illegal fishing techniques, pollution, careless tourism,
other natural phenomena such as earthquakes and hurricanes,
and of course, climate change—the culprit responsible for our
warmer oceans.
4. Illegal mining is defined as the extraction of valuable minerals
or other geological materials from the earth from an ore body,
lode, vein, seam, or reef, which forms the mineralized package
of economic interest to the miner in the absence of land rights,
mining license, exploration or mineral transportation permit or of
