有关环保的知识(英语)

Environmental protection is an increasing concern of individuals,organisations and governments。
Due to the pressures of population and technology the biophysical environment is being degraded,sometimes permanently。This has been recognised and governments began placing restraints on activities that caused environmental degradation。Since the 1960s activism by the environmental movement has created awareness of the various environmental issues。There is not a full agreement on the extent of the environmental impact of human activity and protection measures are occasionally criticised。
Academic institutions now offer courses such as environmental studies,environmental management and environmental engineering that study the history and methods of environmental protection。
Protection of the environment is needed from various human activities。Waste,pollution,loss of biodiversity,introduction of invasive species,release of genetically modified organisms and toxics are some of the issues relating to environmental protection。
An environmental organization is an organization that seeks to protect,analyze or monitor the environment against misuse or degradation。
In this sense the environment may refer to the biophysical environment,the natural environment or the built environment。The organization may be a charity,a trust,a non-governmental organisation or a government organisation。Environmental organizations can be global,national,regional or local。
