What to Focus On

  • Environment includes both living and non-living elements.
  • Environment has four functions: resource supply, waste absorption, life support, and aesthetic service.
  • Renewable resources do not get exhausted on use.
  • Environmental crisis is more than pollution; it is a condition of serious welfare loss.
  • Carrying capacity is the limit of environmental support.
  • Resource use must not exceed regeneration.
  • Global warming and ozone depletion are separate global issues.
  • Greenhouse effect is natural; global warming results when human activity intensifies it.
  • Greenhouse gases include water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane, and ozone.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Sustainable development and economic development mean the same thing.

The environment is only forests, animals, and land.

Renewable resources get used up once they are used.
