A Short Note on the Environment in Urban Areas

Dr. Shreyas Sob

Because it provides us with the resources we require to live, breathe, and thrive, the environment is an essential component of our existence. It includes everything in our immediate environment, including the air we inhale, the land we live on, the water we consume, and the wildlife with which we share it. We must protect the environment because it has a big impact on our health and well-being. The environment has been profoundly affected by human activities. Among the many issues brought about by our actions are climate change, deforestation, and pollution. These issues have prompted huge changes in the climate, influencing everything from the air we inhale to the creatures we share it with. The good news is that we can lessen our impact on the environment by taking certain measures. By using energy-efficient appliances and turning off lights and electronics when not in use, we can cut down on our energy use. By taking public transportation or walking and biking instead of driving, we can also reduce our carbon footprint.

We can also take the important step of reducing our waste. This means recycling as much as possible and using fewer plastics that can only be used once. We can also cut down on how much water we use by taking shorter showers and fixing faucet leaks.
