They enhance eco-efficiency, or in other words, 'do more with less', support the application of environmental management systems and make production processes cleaner.]]> 2021-02-14 14:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/juniorrom97/pdxv07yx8moedcbm/wish/1201191350 Causes and Effects of Climate Change juniorrom97 https://padlet.com/juniorrom97/pdxv07yx8moedcbm/wish/1201203989 What causes climate change (also known as global warming)? And what are the effects of climate change? Learn the human impact and consequences of climate change for the environment, and our lives.]]> 2021-02-14 14:55:02 UTC https://padlet.com/juniorrom97/pdxv07yx8moedcbm/wish/1201203989 Why Is Environmental Health Important? juniorrom97 https://padlet.com/juniorrom97/pdxv07yx8moedcbm/wish/1201216033 Maintaining a healthy environment is central to increasing quality of life and years of healthy life. Globally, 23% of all deaths and 26% of deaths among children under age 5 are due to preventable environmental factors. nvironmental factors are diverse and far reaching. They include:
  • Exposure to hazardous substances in the air, water, soil, and food
  • Natural and technological disasters
  • Climate change
  • Occupational hazards
  • The built environment

In places like Japan or the Caribbean, where fishing is a prominent livelihood for many, issues of pollution in the water will be of much greater concern than in landlocked or desert-covered countries. In an area that relies on coal mining such as West Virginia, individuals may be much more opposed to green energy initiatives and stubbornly defend their way of life despite an outside narrative that discourages the continuing use of fossil fuels.]]> 2021-02-14 15:11:39 UTC https://padlet.com/juniorrom97/pdxv07yx8moedcbm/wish/1201232984 Human impacts on the Environment juniorrom97 https://padlet.com/juniorrom97/pdxv07yx8moedcbm/wish/1201250986 Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water. These negative impacts can affect human behavior and can prompt mass migrations or battles over clean water.  ]]> 2021-02-14 15:22:10 UTC https://padlet.com/juniorrom97/pdxv07yx8moedcbm/wish/1201250986
