Answer» tsunami & earthquake 1) air pollution2) cutted tree3) water pollution floods and earthquake are two environmental problem. pollution and population volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are the two environmental problem deforestation and the utilisation of plastic, polythene bags for short periods leads to all the environmental problems Theenvironmental problemslike global warming, acid rain, air pollution, urban sprawl, waste disposal, ozone layer depletion, water pollution, climate change and many more affect every human, animal and nation on this planet. The two environmental problems are following :-1) Pollution2) Global warming Ozone layer deplictionDeforestion Environmental issuesare harmfuleffects of human activity on the biophysical environment.Environmental protectionis a practice of protecting thenatural environmenton individual, organizational or governmental levels, for the benefit of both the environment and humans.Environmentalism, asocialandenvironmental movement, addresses environmental issues through advocacy, education and activism.[1] Thecarbon dioxideequivalent ofgreenhouse gases(GHG) in the atmosphere has already exceeded over 9000 parts per million (NOAA) (with total "long-term" GHG exceeding 455 parts per million) (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Report). The amount of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere is possibly above the threshold that can potentially cause climate change. China, India and various countries that contribute to pollution are a major risk in many areas of pollution...It's not next year or next decade, it's now." TheUN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs(OCHA) has stated "Climate change is not just a distant future threat. It is the main driver behind rising humanitarian needs and we are seeing its impact. The number of people affected and the damages inflicted by extreme weather has been unprecedented."[2]Further, OCHA has stated: Climate disasters are on the rise. Around 70 percent of disasters are now climate related – up from around 50 percent from two decades ago. These disasters take a heavier human toll and come with a higher price tag. In the last decade, 2.4 billion people were affected by climate related disasters, compared to 1.7 billion in the previous decade. The cost of responding to disasters has risen tenfold between 1992 and 2008. Destructive sudden heavy rains, intense tropical storms, repeated flooding and droughts are likely to increase, as will the vulnerability of local communities in the absence of strong concerted action.[3] Environment destruction caused by humans is a global problem, and this is a problem that is on going every day. By year 2050, the global human population is expected to grow by 2 billion people, thereby reaching a level of 9.6 billion people (Living Blue Planet 24).[4]The human effects on Earth can be seen in many different ways. A main one is the temperature rise, and according to the report ”Our Changing Climate”, the global warming that has been going on for the past 50 years is primarily due to human activities (Walsh, et al. 20). Since 1895, the U.S. average temperature has increased from 1.3°F to 1.9°F, with most of the increase taken place since around year 1970 (Walsh, et al. 20).[5][6] environmental disorders like p0 The Biggest Environmental Problems Acid Rain. Overfishing. ... Urban Sprawl. ... Deforestation. ... Water Pollution. ... Population Growth. ... Waste Production. ... Genetic Modification of Crops. Environmental issues caused by man-made chemicals are becoming clearer. ... Ozone layer depletion and green house effect are today's major enovironment problems.. Major currentenvironmental issuesmay include climate change, pollution,environmentaldegradation, and resource depletion etc.Theconservation movement lobbies for protection of endangered species and protection ofanyecologically valuable natural areas, genetically modified foods and global warming 1. natural calamities &2. ozone layer depletion |
