About Green Environment Solutions

No. 1 - Intensive Agriculture

Chemical fertilisers, pesticides and insecticides used to produce food damage the environment and create a false supply chain. 

Possible Solution: Choose local.

No. 2 - Soil Degradation

According to U.N. estimations, about 12 million hectares of farmland are subject to degradation or contamination every year. 

Possible Solution: Go vegan.

No. 3 - Overpopulation

Unsustainable population levels mean a shortage of resources like water, fuel and food in the areas that need the most help. Population expansion in less developed and developing countries is straining the already scarce resources. 

Possible Solution: Empower women.

No. 4 - Deforestation

Our forests are natural carbon sponges for carbon dioxide and produce much of the world's well-needed fresh oxygen. Forests help regulate temperature and rainfall. 

Possible Solutions: Reduce paper consumption, go vegan and buy from forest-friendly companies. 

No. 5 - Loss of Biodiversity

The extinction of species and habitats due to ecosystem damage destroys natural processes like pollination. The destruction of coral reefs has a devastating effect on our global marine ecosystems. 

Possible Solutions: Stop deforestation prevent overhunting and overfishing.

No. 6 - Ozone Layer Depletion

Pollution caused by chlorine and bromide found in chloro-fluoro carbons (CFCs) create holes in the ozone layer, causing harmful U.V. radiation to reach earth. This is one of the most critical topics about green environment matters. 

Possible Solution: Minimise nitrous oxide release by staying local. 

No. 7 - Waste Production

Our hyperconsumption is causing non-biodegradable rubbish such as plastic packaging, artificial fibres, toxic e-waste (e.g. lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic and flame retardants from electronic goods), glass, metals and hazardous substances such as nuclear waste and pesticides. Hyperconsumption produces an excessive amount of garbage, all dumped in the oceans of less developed countries. 

Possible Solution: Large fines for ocean dumping.

No. 8 - Acid rain

Acid rain occurs due to certain pollutants in the atmosphere and the combustion of fossil fuels, erupting volcanoes or rotting vegetation that releases sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide into the atmosphere. Acid rain can seriously affect human health, wildlife, and aquatic species. 

Possible Solution: Use renewable energy sources.

No. 9 - Natural Resource Depletion

The future looks bleak when we look at the massive industrialisation in Asian countries like India and China. Pollution from the use of natural resources contributes to climate change. The increased use of natural resources leads to population growth and air pollution. Fossil fuel consumption alone results in the emission of greenhouse gases, which is primarily responsible for global warming and climate change. 

Possible Solutions: Use more renewable energy and use education to reduce population.

No. 10 - Water Pollution

Industrial development is filling our rivers, seas and oceans with toxic pollutants, a significant threat to human health. Organic pollutants are microorganisms, bacteria and viruses generated by excrement, animal and vegetable waste. Chemical pollutants are caused by the nitrates and phosphates of pesticides, human and animal drugs, household products, heavy metals, acids, and hydrocarbons. 

Possible Solutions: Green agriculture, stormwater management, plastic waste reduction.

No. 11 - Global Warming

Climate changes and global warming effects result from human practices that cause greenhouse gases. Rising earth surface temperatures lead to natural disasters such as flooding, hurricanes, wildfires, drought, excessive snow and desertification. 

No. 12 - Genetic Engineering

Genetic modification of food results in increased toxins and diseases. G.M. crops cause serious environmental problems as an engineered gene may prove toxic to wildlife. 

Possible Solutions: Eat locally grown food and do not buy from large corporations.
