Promote Environment Conservation
One of the most important reasons to promote environmental awareness is that it enables most people to actually know the importance of the environments. It is true that some people are unaware of important pollution issues and they do not know exactly what the environment entails. These people need to be educated about the effects of pollution on one’s health and the health of the entire planet. The more a person is educated, the more responsive they will be towards keeping the planet cleaner and healthier.
When there are enough studies done on the effects of pollution, it will be realized that the environment is actually very important to our way of life. The environment is so important that when it is affected negatively in any way it causes so much sickness and pain. As a matter of fact, many people have been victims of environmental pollution and because of this they have a lot of respiratory health issues. Many people fall sick and in the process die due to issues like pollution and unhealthy air. The environment therefore needs more protection than we actually think and it is only right to protect it or else there will definitely be future problems associated with it.
One major effect realized with this sort of thing is when people fall sick as a result of environmental degradation or its related issues it leads to so much money being spent just to keep the fellow alive. It is obvious that environmental degradation can be expensive to humans. Expensive in this term refers to the fact that many will want to get treatment when they fall sick. For instance those people who are often found to be diagnosed with cancer are forced to spend so much money to receive the chemotherapy treatments. And it is important to state that cancer can be caused by pollution and its related problems. There are even instances whereby some people cannot afford treatment and so they end up losing their precious lives. Of course one can attribute all these mishaps to the bad treatment of the environment.
There are even instances where some bad practices, such as illegal mining, bush burning and usage of dangerous chemicals for fishing, can be very detrimental to human health. Smoking is another factor that affects both the environment and the person involved. Smoking even affects other people and animals nearby due to second hand smoke.
All these pollutions can be avoided provided there is enough awareness created, as this is very crucial. As a matter of fact, awareness is noted to be a basic tool to curbing environmental related problems and as such should be improved upon. Once we can educate the entire population on the health effects of pollution and poor air quality, we could save lives and safe the planet.
