Major Environmental Problems

Requires millions of years for water, air and land to recoop

Hundreds of different pollutants exist

Makes the planet a lot uglier

Resulting emission of greenhouse gases

People are taking efforts to shift to
renewable sources of energy

Caused by overconsumption of resources,
mainly plastic

Mostly made by the most developed countries

One of the most dangerous environmental problems

Forests produce oxygen, but also help at
regulating temperatures and rainfall

At the moment, forests cover 30% of all land,
but the numbers are leading to smaller percentages really quickly

It's a process of simply removing green land
and making it available for residential, idnustrial or commercial purpose

The ozone layer is an invisible layer of protection around the planet that protects us from Sun's harmful rays

Gasses make holes in the layer which make its efficiency of protecting less valuable

Mostly made by humans

Leads to rising temperatures

Causing melting of ice
and rising the sea levels

Makes flash floods and desertification

The population of the planet is reaching
unsustainable levels

Shortage of resources

Mostly in less developed countries

Intensive agriculture damages the environment

Has been around for a couple of decades

Various harmful effects

Change of seasons, melting of ice
occurrence of new diseases

Change of overall weather scenario

Extinction of many species

Ecosystems are in danger after millions of years of development

Caused by imbalance of natural processes

Migrations to cities

Leads to cities getting bigger and bigger

Increased traffic, environmental and health issues
