《GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES》SYNTHESIS: IDENTIFY POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS AND TAKE THE BEST SOLUTION
Advertisement
From what we know there are so many examples of environmental issues. But we need to know when there is a problem there is also a solution to overcome the problem. Here are the ways to overcome the global environmental issues.
First, we can stop habitat and encourage its restoration. We can combat habitat loss by preserving natural resources and learning how to use them in a way that does not require such frequent destruction of habitats. Regulation is equally important. Plans and rules should be set forth to legalize how much of a given area can be altered for the benefits of humans. By practicing more restraint, we allow wildlife time to adapt and leave more areas undisturbed for the sake of biodiversity. We should also teach others the importance of biodiversity. Comprehensive education regarding the environment helps people to understand how necessary biodiversity is and teaches ways in which everyone can contribute to causes that aid in keeping many different species alive. Along with education, awareness should also be raised.
Observers should make it a point to assist reporting professionals by safely documenting the process of habitat destruction whenever the opportunity arises. Videos and photos help to visually present the unfortunate circumstances that environmental destruction can create, evoking emotional responses that will inspire others to take action to protect natural habitats. As quickly as humans can destroy natural habitats, we should be just as willing to put forth the effort to rebuild and attempt to replace what is lost. For areas that cannot be saved, we can assist in funding the creation of areas that will serve as a refuge for displaced wildlife instead. These safe havens mimic the natural habitats that allow plants to grow and animals to live healthily without the threat of devastation. Efforts have been put in place to create these sanctuaries by environmentalists all over the world to .

Next, we also can practice sustainable living. is a lifestyle that attempts to reduce an individual's or society's use of both the Earth's natural resources and personal resources. Practitioners of sustainable living often attempt to reduce their carbon footprint by altering methods of transportation, energy consumption, and diet. Sustainable living says "no" to fossil fuels (and not just because we're running out of them). Their extraction not only destroys the planet, but they burn dirty, releasing tons of CO2 emissions.
Renewable energy on the other hand includes energy derived from unlimited sources (i.e. sun, wind, water, geothermal, and biomass) that are clean to use and much less impactful to source.
The benefits of renewable energy, both environmentally and economically, make it one of the biggest sustainable living solutions. most impactful action here is to research renewable energy providers in your country/city and make the switch for your home energy. Also, if you can encourage your workplace to do the same. A great example of a renewable energy provider is the UK's .
We can also do Plant-rich dietsFarming methods aside, adopting a plant rich diet is an incredibly impactful way to live more sustainably. According to , "Plant-rich diets reduce emissions and also tend to be healthier, leading to lower rates of chronic disease. According to a 2016 study, business-as-usual emissions could be reduced by as much as 70 percent through adopting a vegan diet and 63 percent for a vegetarian diet, which includes cheese, milk, and eggs. $1 trillion in annual health-care costs and lost productivity would be saved."
In fact, the meat and dairy industry takes up and is responsible for 60% of the agricultural industry's of yearly greenhouse gas emissions. suggests that adopting a plant-based diet can save 401,500 gallons of water, 10,950 square feet of forest, 7,300 pounds of CO2 emissions per person per year (not to mention the 365 animal lives saved). Numerous studies, such as the Natural Resources Defense Council's report "", all echo the same truth: meat, at least the way it is farmed today, is unsustainable (not to mention inhumane). Switch to a plant-rich diet! Note that, for many the thought of switching to an entirely vegan diet doesn't sit well, and for some, other health concerns can get in the way. If this is you, consider simply eating less meat. Again, every bit counts and if everyone adopted , /vegetarianism or a flexitarian diet, the impact would certainly not be insignificant.

reducing plastic is always good for the environment, so zero waste practices are inherently also sustainable living ones, too. On the flip side, those aiming for a zero waste lifestyle also tend to adopt other sustainable living habits. While driven by the same underlying motivation, zero waste and sustainable living prioritize lifestyle changes differently. focuses on the trash problem (at the consumer level) and the closed-loop cycle of production and consumption (at the systematic level). It doesn't specifically address things like transportation or green superannuation/pension funds to invest in. Those things are domains of sustainable living, a much broader concept that deals with ways to reduce the environmental impact of large scale day-to-day activities that don't necessarily produce quantifiable or physical forms of waste.
Last but not least, We need to fight the spread of invasive species. When these non-native plants and animals establish themselves in our local ecosystems, they outcompete and dislodge species that have evolved specifically to live there. Invasive species affect us by degrading our soil, leading to erosion that can lower the quality of our water. They crowd out and can kill important tree species that provide shade, and habitat for native wildlife. And they can even increase the risk of wildfire.The best way to fight invasive species is to prevent them from occurring in the first place. You can help stop the introduction and spread of invasive species. Help protect native plants and animals by following these six easy guidelines
Verify that the plants you are buying for your yard or garden are not invasive. Replace invasive plants in your garden with non-invasive alternatives. Ask your local nursery staff for help in identifying invasive plants. When boating, clean your boat thoroughly before transporting it to a different body of water.Clean your boots before you hike in a new area to get rid of hitchhiking weed seeds and pathogens.Don't "pack a pest" when traveling. Fruits and vegetables, plants, insects and animals can carry pests or become invasive themselves. (it can harbor forest pests), clean your bags and boots after each hike, and throw out food before you travel from place to place.Don't release aquarium fish and plants, live bait or other exotic animals into the wild. If you plan to own an exotic pet, do your research and plan ahead to make sure you can commit to looking after it.Volunteer at your local park, refuge or other wildlife area to help remove invasive species. Help educate others about the threat.
