Environmental Protection and Sanitation, have become a major concern in developing countries of the world, especially in Nigeria. Pollution of the environment via air, land, and water by human activities is detrimental to the existence of all living things within the ecosystem.
AIR POLLUTION
Air pollution is caused by several factors such as emissions from motor vehicles, industrial activities, volcanic eruptions, emitting poisonous, forest fires, deforestation, bush burning, and cosmic clouds of dust.
SOIL POLLUTION
Soil pollution is also caused by factors such as oil spillage, human erosion, and contamination by hazardous substances.
WATER POLLUTION
Water pollution is caused by oil discharge from vessels, dumping from ships and aircraft, waste disposal from land, oil spillage, organic sources, and other means of polluting the environment. Pollution is a vital environmental disaster due to the fact that some known and unknown diseases are discovered and might be difficult to subdue.
As a member of the Environmental Protection and Sanitation Group( EPS) NYSC Abuja, I have the responsibility to always Educate and Advocate for a Sustainable Environment.
I was chosen to speak to some students on Environmental Protection and Sanitation as part of our Community Development Service Project. I took time to educate the students on the importance of Environmental Protection & Sanitation and some of the actions they need to take.
We are at the stage where everyone has to be involved in protecting the Ecosystem.
There has been an increase in climate change and a lot of countries are already facing the effect. About 10% of the global burden of disease and one-third of all annual deaths is believed to be due to poor sanitation.
Protecting our Environment starts with us. Let's join hands to ensure that the environment is safe for all of us.
