How we see? – May be wrong?• Normally environment is
defined as the things surrounding us.
• This makes the human as center
Anthropocentric view• The actual problem lies here• We never realize what is our
part.

• The main reason for the problem

Why we have to take care ?
“Nature provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed.” - Mahatma Gandhi
– Since we get everything from the natural environment, at least for that sake we have to protect it

WORLD ENVIORNMENT DAY
• World Environment Day (WED) is the United Nations’ principal vehicle for encouraging worldwide awareness and action for the environment.
• It also serves as the ‘people’s day’ for doing something positive for the environment, galvanizing individual actions into a collective power that generates an exponential positive impact on the planet.
![Page 9: World environment day](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5884532f1a28ab903b8b5741/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
"Seven Billion Dreams. One Planet. Consume with Care." • The well-being of humanity, the environment,
and the functioning of the economy, ultimately depend upon the responsible management of the planet’s natural resources.
• People are consuming far more natural resources than what the planet can sustainably provide.

• By 2050, if current consumption and production patterns remain the same and with a rising population expected to reach 9.6 billion, we will need three planets to sustain our ways of living and consumption

Consuming with care means…• Human prosperity need not cost the earth.• living within planetary boundaries to
ensure a healthy future where our dreams can be realized.
• Living sustainably is about doing more and better with less.
• It is about knowing that rising rates of natural resource use and the environmental impacts that occur are not a necessary by-product of economic growth.

Every Action Counts
• WED is the opportunity for everyone to realize the responsibility to care for the Earth and to become agents of change.
"Although individual decisions may seem small in the face of global threats and trends, when billions of people join forces in common purpose, we can make a tremendous difference.” - UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon

Water
• Water the Elixir of Life – Sir.C.V.Raman
• The most exploited natural resource
• The distribution is not even throughout globe
![Page 14: World environment day](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5884532f1a28ab903b8b5741/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
WATER• Even though households are relatively low
consumers of water, population growth and expanded water use have outweighed the effect of water saving technology and behavior.
• Less than 3% of the world’s water is fresh (drinkable), of which 2.5% is frozen in the Antarctica, Arctic and glaciers. Humanity must therefore rely on 0.5% for all of man’s ecosystem’s and fresh water needs.
![Page 15: World environment day](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5884532f1a28ab903b8b5741/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Man is polluting water faster than nature can recycle and purify water in rivers and lakes.
• More than 1 billion people still do not have access to fresh water.
• Excessive use of water contributes to the global water stress.
• Water is free from nature but the infrastructure needed to deliver it is expensive.

ENERGY
• Despite technological advances that have promoted energy efficiency gains, energy use in OECD countries will continue to grow another 35% by 2020.
• Commercial and residential energy use is the second most rapidly growing area of global energy use after transport.
• A 32% increase in vehicle ownership is expected by 2020. At the same time, motor vehicle kilometres are projected to increase by 40% and global air travel is projected to triple in the same period.
![Page 17: World environment day](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5884532f1a28ab903b8b5741/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Households consume 29% of global energy and consequently contribute to 21% of resultant CO2 emissions.
• The cost of renewable energy is increasingly competitive with that derived from fossil fuels. One-fifth of the world’s final energy consumption in 2013 was from renewables.
• Globally, energy consumption grew most quickly in the transport and service sectors, driven by rising passenger travel and freight transport, and a rapid expansion in the service economy

FOOD
• 1.3 billion tonnes of food is wasted every year while almost 1 billion people go undernourished and another 1 billion hungry.
• Overconsumption of food is detrimental to our health and the environment.– 1.5 billion people globally are
overweight or obese.
![Page 19: World environment day](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5884532f1a28ab903b8b5741/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
– Land degradation, declining soil fertility, unsustainable water use, overfishing and marine environment degradation are all lessening the ability of the natural resource base to supply food.
– The food sector accounts for around 30% of the world’s total energy consumption and accounts for around 22% of total Greenhouse Gas emissions.
![Page 20: World environment day](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5884532f1a28ab903b8b5741/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Increased consumption adversely affects food security.– Increase in food prices.– Upsurge in production methods that use
more resource-intensive food products.– Resource-intensive foods deplete the
agro-ecological resource base, affecting its ability to produce plentiful food.

What I can do?
• Before consuming anything, think twice whether it is necessary ?
• Use only judicious amounts of natural resources
• Wherever possible reduce the use• Avoid the wastage• Completely avoid one time usage
items

• Before leaving a room switch-off the fans and lights
• Attend the pipe leaks immediately• Do not waste food• Avoid using plastic bags• Use public transport systems• Plant more number of trees and take
care of them
