We are currently facing unpredictable weather patterns as a result of climate shifts and environmental damage. Global
environmental degradation is occurring as a result of resource depletion, such as air, water, and soil. We must be aware of
the processes that are harmful to the environment. Hence, it is important that we embrace environment-friendly methods.
Protecting our Environment
We can protect our environment in a variety of ways:
• Plant trees near our homes and use eco-friendly means of transportation, such as electric automobiles.
• Not leave the tap running while brushing our teeth.
• Utilise the remaining water in our bottles to water plants.
• Use cloth or jute bags instead of plastic bags, purchase eco-friendly products, and decrease our use of paper.
• Clean products made from sustainably-derived components and natural oils that are biodegradable and come in
eco-friendly packaging are better for the environment.
• Use plants that absorb dangerous pollutants from the air like Areca palm and rubber.
Green Jobs
Encouragement of green jobs is one way we can help in the preservation and restoration of the environment. A green
job contributes to and sustains the transition to ecologically-sustainable modes of production and consumption.
It affects all sectors, including energy, material and water conservation, waste management, and pollution control.
Green jobs, also known as green-collar jobs, are jobs in agricultural, administrative, research and development, industrial,
and service sectors that contribute significantly in protecting or restoring environmental quality, according to the nited
ations nvironment rogram ). ' nvironmental quality' refers to a set of generalised or localised traits and
characteristics of the environment that affect humans and other species.
