- Afforestation:- the process of converting abandon land into forest land by planting more trees.
- Environmental degradation:- It means degrade/downgrade in the quality and efficiency of the environmental process.
- Global warming:- Increase in the temperature of the earth which lead to melting of glaciers.
- Desertification:- It means degradation of land quality leading to low yielding capacity and ultimately behave as desertic land. It leads to low productivity lands.
- Man – Animal Conflict:- Also known as human-wildlife conflict is negative meet of animals with humans leading to an unfavourable and bad outcome. Like attacks on humans by animals.
- Eutrophication:- Eutrophication is an enrichment of water by nutrient salts that causes structural changes to the ecosystem such as: increased production of algae and aquatic plants, depletion of fish species, general deterioration of water quality and other effects that reduce and preclude use”.
- Photosynthesis:- Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to harness energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy
- Flash floods are very dangerous floods that may happen with little or no warning. When there’s more rain than the soil can absorb, the surplus water quickly runs into rivers and creeks, overwhelming storm drains and ditches and causing a flash flood. Flash floods can cause water to rise significantly during a short amount of time.
- Desertification:- It means degradation of land quality leading to low yielding capacity and ultimately behave as deserted land. It leads to low productivity lands.
- Suspended Particulate matter:- Suspended particulate matter (SPM) are finely divided solids or liquids that may be dispersed through the air from combustion processes, industrial activities or natural sources.
- Carbon Footprint:- A carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases (including carbon dioxide and methane) that are generated by our actions
