2. PROBLEMS
2.1. 1. Pollution: Pollution of air, water and soil require millions of years to recoup. Industry and motor vehicle exhaust are the number one pollutants.
2.2. 2. Global Warming: Climate changes like global warming is the result of human practices like emission of Greenhouse gases.
2.3. 3. Overpopulation: The population of the planet is reaching unsustainable levels as it faces shortage of resources like water, fuel and food
2.4. 4. Natural Resource Depletion: Natural resource depletion is another crucial current environmental problems.
3. SOLUTIONS
3.1. POLUTION
3.1.1. *Use public mode of transportation: Encourage people to use more and more public modes of transportation to reduce pollution.*Conserve energy: Switch off fans and lights when you are going out. Large amount of fossil fuels are burnt to produce electricity. *Understand the concept of Reduce, Reuse and Recycle: Do not throw away items that are of no use to you. *Emphasis on clean energy resources: Clean energy technologies like solar, wind and geothermal are on high these days.*Use energy efficient devices: CFL lights consume less electricity as against their counterparts.
3.2. GLOBAL WARMING
3.2.1. Boosting energy efficiency: The energy used to power, heat, and cool our homes, businesses, and industries is the single largest contributor to global warming.Greening transportation: The transportation sector's emissions have increased at a faster rate than any other energy-using sector over the past decade.Revving up renewables: Renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, geothermal and bioenergy are available around the world.Phasing out fossil fuel electricity: Dramatically reducing our use of fossil fuels—especially carbon-intensive coal—is essential to tackle climate change.Managing forests and agriculture: Taken together, tropical deforestation and emissions from agriculture represent nearly 30 percent of the world's heat-trapping emissions.
