Welcome to the Environment News channel. This channel will provide you with news and information as it applies to environmental topics.
The natural environment, commonly referred to simply as the environment, is a term that comprises all living and non-living things that occur naturally on earth or some part of it. Effective protection of the environment requires activity on many different fronts. Biodiversity is the variety of all life forms. It includes humans, plants, animals, fungi and microorganisms, and the genes that they contain. But biodiversity is more than the life in the bush or the oceans and rivers. It has many important functions: it gives us food and medicine, produces oxygen, breaks down our garbage, and cleans up our sewage…to name a few! There are many things we can do to conserve biodiversity for the future.
