The reason for this sudden global call to save earth is the destructionthat has changed the face of earth. Problems like global warming,pollution, overuse of minerals, deforestation and natural calamitieslike volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, earthquakes, etc. have causeddestruction on earth.

is there a need to save

THE MAJOR CAUSES ARE AS FOLLOWS-

POLLUTION

DEFORESTATION

GLOBAL VARMING

WATER POLLUTION

AIR POLLUTION

LAND POLLUTION

DISTRIBUTION OF WATER

Available for consumption

Frozen in poles

Other

• Organic pollution

• Agricultural pollution

• Runoff, toxic waste

• Thermal pollution.

EUTROPHICATION.. Undue

enrichment of a lake, river etc. with nutrients, resulting in growth of organisms and depletion of oxygen level in water.

More is water pollution more is the pressure on the environment.

Waste that come from the sewage plant encourage the growth of algae.

Overgrowth of algae water soon becomes algae ridden and oxygen become depleted.

OUR DUTIES

1. Lesser the use of water.

2. Use less cleansers when washing.

3. Never throw rubbish into the sea orriver.

1. Landfills

2. Recycling of materials

3. Education to the public

FOR A CITIZEN-

1. Reuse scrap paper and plastic bag

2. Use recycled material

Commercial

Industrial

Vehicle

Nuisance

Others

Traffic Factories Air conditioners Power stations

Government

1. Planning relocate stationary sources of air pollution away from the main urban areas

2. Legislation Air Pollution Control Regulations Air Quality Control Zones

3. Monitoring and detection stations to measure the amount of the air pollutants

4. Advice and education Free adviceEnvironmental education to citizens Air Pollution Index (API) are providedto public

Citizen

1. Improve in engineering2. Report polluting vehicles to the police3. Cut down the use of electricity 4.Use mass public transport

What are the Causes of Deforestation?The destruction of the forests is occurring due to various reasons, one of the main reasons being the short term economic benefits.Given below are some more common causes of deforestation:Used for Urban and Construction Purposes: The cutting down of trees

for lumber that is used for building materials, furniture, and paperproducts. Forests are also cleared in order to accommodate expandingurban areas.

To Grow Crops: Forests are also cut down in order to clear land for growing crops.To Create Grazing Land: Forests are cut down in order create land for grazing cattle.Used for Fuel: Trees are cut down in developing countries to be used as firewood or turned into charcoal, which are used for cooking and heating purposes

Solar energy

Warming of the Earth’s core

CO2 levels increasing because warmer oceans release more CO2

In turn global warming could lead to global cooling

YOU NOW HAVE TWO OPTIONS…

//

Energy in our Lives:Energy is essential. We use it for heat, electricity, transportation and manufacturing. We all need it to stay warm, to cook food and to have light in the night. We use energy to fuel our airplanes and cars and we use it to make things in factories. Everything from peanut butter to plastic bottles, from T-shirts to cell phones takes a lot of energy to make.

Where does the worlds, energy come from today? Over 85% of it comes from fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas. The rest comes from many other sources like wind, water, radioactive atoms and the sun.

Are Humans Causing the Climate to Change?

98% of greenhouse gas emissions are natural

2% are from man-made sources

Warmed slightly in the last 100 years, 70% of warming occurred prior to 1940

Drive efficient vehicle

Drive less

Buy energy efficient appliances

Use compact florescent light bulbs (CFL)

Weatherize your home

Choose renewable sources of energy

Unplug unused equipments

Turn off the lights

Set computers to sleep when not in use

Take control of temperature

Use appliances efficiently
