Deforestation process




The above picture shows how the process of deforestation looks like

  Deforestation is the removal of a forest or stand of trees where the land is thereafter converted to a non forest use. Examples of deforestation include conversion of forestland to farms, ranches, or urban use.About half of the world's original forests had been destroyed by 2011, the majority during the previous 50 years. More than half of the animal and plant species in the world live in tropical forests.Because deforestation basically involves killing trees in forests, there are so many effects that can be enumerated as results of the activity. Effects of deforestation can be classified and grouped into effects to biodiversity, environment and social settings.When forests are cuted down, nature basically requires people to renew the forest.  Reforestation is proven to be a much harder effort than deforestation. It is one concept that is in the opposite direction as deforestation.So the rate of deforestation has not been offset by the rate of reforestation.

 Thus, the world is now in a  state when it comes to issues concerning the environment.the depletion of these groups of trees is greatly increasing the risk that carbon monoxide would reach the atmosphere and result in the depletion of the ozone layer, which in turn results to global warming.
One major effect of deforestation is climate change. Changes to the surroundings done by deforestation work in many ways. One, there is abrupt change in temperatures in the nearby areas. Forests naturally cool down because they help retain moisture in the air.Forests are natural habitats to many types of animals and organisms. That is why, when there is deforestation, many animals are left without shelters. Those that manage to go through the flat lands and residential sites are then killed by peopletroubled.

Deforestation is hardly hitting the living conditions of indigenous people who consider forests as their primary habitats. Imagine how they are rendered homeless when forests are depleted. These natives would be forced to live elsewhere, and are usually left to becoming mendicants in rural and urban areas.Why cant we love our environment?Some of us have no idea of the role that forests play in an environment.Why keep on destroying our natural herbs?This blog will give you the tips and educate you well on loving your trees ,plants also living happily with them.Imagine the future if the rate of deforestation occurs at a rate of just 15 hectares annually? At that rate in just 30 to 40 years the worlds forests will have been turned into arid barren wasteland useless for any purpose.There are many differing groups that will have to work together to achieve an end to deforestation environmental and conservation groups, governments, consumers, corporations as well as those who actually work in the forests. We need each and every one of us to take a stand and do our bit.Lets work together and save our forests.

Medical Waste Disposal

Medical Waste Disposal is the most fundamental and crucial step towards infection prevention in health care facilities.Waste of all sorts can have negative effects, not only on the environment that it is disposed of in, but also directly and indirectly on the life that surrounds the environment. Medical waste often presents the greatest risk of any waste. This is a result of the possibility of pathogens in the waste and role it can play for pathogens.Medical waste, also known as clinical waste, refers to biological products, which are essentially useless. Medical Waste Disposal is an environmental concern, as many medical wastes are classified as infectious or bio-hazardous and can spread infectious disease.Medical Waste Disposal is the most fundamental and crucial step towards infection prevention in health care facilities.

ADVANTAGES MEDICAL WASTE DISPOSAL ARE:

• Minimises the spread of infections and reduces the risk of accidental injury to staff, clients, visitors, and the local community
•  Helps provide an aesthetically pleasing atmosphere
•  Reduces odors and other unpleasant sights.
• Attracts fewer insects and does not attract animals
• Reduces the likelihood of contamination of the soil or ground water with chemicals or microorganisms

WHO IS AT RISK?

Anyone who handles contaminated waste--from the time it is thrown out by a service provider to even after it reaches the site of final disposal--is at risk of infection or injury. In many settings, housekeeping staff may not understand their risks. It is particularly important for supervisors to ensure that these staff know their risks and follow the appropriate procedures.This can be prevented by informing all people who can be affected by it on how to take care of themselves. It can be done by educating staff, administrators, and the local community about the dangers of contaminated Medical Waste and by instituting low-cost, safe Medical Waste Disposal practise's, all health facilities can minimise the risks associated with waste disposal.Medical waste disposal must not be dumped everywhere it just need to be looked after and be well managed,avoiding it of being moving all around causing the danger in people's lifestyle

Littering and the environment

 Litter in our surroundings is an important environmental issue, which many people overlook. While a majority of people do know that littering is a bad thing, many continue to carelessly scatter their trash around nonetheless.There are a host of problems that stem from littering, and the environment has been suffering as a result

of some people’s inability to control this habit. Money is also wasted because of it. The government has to employ people to pick up trash, and that means funding from tax revenue.
Littering can be hazardous to one’s health as well . Trash in an area attracts vermin and bacteria. Broken glass and other sharp objects are dangerous when left in public places.

Litter is harmful to wildlife as well. Plastic can cause birds and other animals to choke, when they mistake it for food. And, even worse, small bits of plastic can accumulate in the stomach of a bird, never digesting or decomposing, to the point where there is no more room for real food and the bird starves to death with a full stomach. What is the impact of all the littering that individuals do, largely from their cars and on highways? What can I do to help clean it up? How can we strengthen laws to prevent it?

Only You Can Prevent Litter
Doing your part to keep litter to a minimum is easy, but it takes vigilance. For starters, never let trash escape from your car, and make sure household garbage bins are sealed tightly so animals can’t get at the contents. Always remember to take your garbage with you upon leaving a park or other public space. And if you’re still smoking, isn’t saving the environment a compelling enough reason to finally quit? Also, if that stretch of roadway you drive everyday to work is a haven for litter, offer to clean it up and keep it clean.The best way to support and care for your environment is to be carefully about your littering and let your it be the best priority  to  look at ,try by all means to sacrifice for making your environment clean.Love and care for your environment!!
