Discourse - Environment

I’m sure when your asked about environment you immediately think of everything that surrounds YOU. However, when asked about THE environment you start to think outside of your environment and what you start to think about are things like the climate and atmosphere, why is that? Well I start to think it’s because the way that the term environment is used, it can be used in a way that suits you or in a way that everybody refers it to. Environment is the surroundings that exist around us in our lives whether that being someone, something or even somewhere. Generally the term environment branches out into many references from biophysical, systems, social environments just to name a few but there are many more that the term environment means. Natural environments are all living and non-living existents that occur on Earth that can be mountains, volcanoes, oceanic activity and climate. The latter has been hitting the headlines in recent years due to the effect of so called “global warming” which has been stated to have a long-term effect that could be have a devastating result on our natural environment and on the planet itself. So whether you want to help and save the environment its up to you to that, if not then you might as well lay back in your personal space.
