What to Focus On

  • Environment includes both living and non-living elements.
  • Biotic elements are living; abiotic elements are non-living.
  • Environment supplies resources, absorbs waste, sustains life, and provides aesthetic services.
  • Environmental crisis happens when demand exceeds nature’s limits.
  • Population growth and industrialisation increase pressure on resources.
  • Overuse and misuse reduce resource supply.
  • Global warming is linked to greenhouse gases.
  • Carbon dioxide and methane are major greenhouse gases.
  • Kyoto 1997 led to an agreement against global warming.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Environment means only forests, rivers, and wildlife.

All natural resources are renewable if humans keep using them carefully.

The environment can keep supplying resources forever, regardless of how much is extracted.
