Overview

At a time when the world is facing devastating impacts of climate change, floods, drought, storms, heat waves and rising sea levels that are causing destruction not only to homes and infrastructure but to property, livelihoods and livestock, learning about the environment is the only way that people around the world will develop an understanding of how important it is for every one of us to get involved in using our natural resources sustainably and ensuring that we adopt safer technologies that will reduce carbon emissions and slow down the acceleration of climate change. Countries around the world are already committing to limiting global warming to at least 1.5 degrees Celsius by 2030, but this ambitious target can only be achieved when all persons around the world appreciate the need for zero net or need for striking a balance between the greenhouse gases put into the atmosphere and those taken out of it. This understanding can only be gained when one understands what the environment is, the importance of its natural resources, how ecosystems function and dysfunction as a result of climate change, and what one can do to get involved in protecting the environment. This is the basic inspiration for this book and the author's work as an Environmental Conservationist. She has been working actively in the field for many years providing education, facilitating environmental projects, and ensuring that environmental conservation methods are adopted by people and Government.

The author explains in clear and simple language everything you should know about the environment. She provides valuable information on the dangers facing our planet and what we can do about it. From tackling greenhouse gases (GHGs) to why planting trees is actually important, Learning about the Environment provides a wealth of knowledge about environmental conservation in a writing style that's clear for anyone to understand. The book is an in-depth exposition on the environment in all its forms, and a nudge for our collective participation in safeguarding our home: the Earth.
