Ecological Community Environmental Analysis

Environment is an ecological community or the complex of physical, chemical and biotic factors that act upon an organism and ultimately determine its form and survival.(The Editors of Encylcopedia Britannica,2014). It is important for us to help maintaining and preserve this balanced ecosystem for the younger generations that are yet to come to this world. However, we often took for granted for this matter which rapidly changing our environment. When the environment changed, many problems started to occur such as natural disaster and different types of weather patterns. There are many major environmental problems such as global warming, natural resource depletion, pollution and deforestation. However, there would be only several environmental

In Dak To District’s Vietnam, Tan Canh Commune claimed that they are forced to use polluted water pumped from the Poko River to water their coffee bushes. He also added that the water had a foul smell and contained starch residue probably from the two new cassava processing plants upstream. The usage of the contaminated water will reduce the productivity of the coffee. Tran Thin said that his family’s coffee productivity had decreased gradually in the past two or three years from three tonnes to 2.7 tonnes and 2.2 tonnes. Last November, Kon Tum Province’s environmental crime prevention department found that Fococev was illegally discharging untreated waste into the Poko River. Complaints had been made by the local but the lack of enforcement leads to the pollution of the Poko River. Meanwhile in India, on average, to produce 1kg of cotton consumes 22,500 litres of water, according to research done by the Water Footprint Network which mean these water cannot be used for anything else because it has either evaporated or is too contaminated for reuse. “India’s water problems are well-known in the country and pollution is everywhere. Disagreement lies in the solutions,” says Arjen Hoekstra, professor in water management at the University of Twente in the Netherlands.The India government, hopes to use engineering to increase the amount of water, said Hoekstra which make it possible to grow cotton in less

He said that they are facing a great danger due to soil erosion, deforestation and bad management of rivers. Many Albanian trees close to powerful rivers such as the Vjosa, Osum and Shkumbin have been chopped down by poor villagers desperate for wood. In addition, entrepreneurs also cleared the way for construction of building and dams. The trees had held soil in place for centuries served as a sponge during rainfalls but without them, soil erosion has accelerated flood damage.Rama said that there had been many thoughts regarding the climate change and so many talks behind it but still no real measures on how to deal against this matter across the Europe. Meanwhile in Zamboanga City, Philippines, a mysterious sink hole had caused frightening and inducing threat to the locals due to soil erosion in 50 meter and unknown depth suddenly emerged. Some environmentalists said that the hole was a “sink hole” while others said it was “soil erosion” at the bottom of the sea. They revealed that a diver tried to investigate the phenomenon at the round hole but failed to reach the bottom of the hole. Apparently, the hole was so deep that the diver ran out of oxygen and emerged from the sea with his ears and nose bleeding.(N.E.Lacson, 2015). Lastly ,soil erosion are believed to be the main reason by the Indian environmentalist on Seminary
