What to Focus On

  • The environment has two components: abiotic (non-living) and biotic (living).
  • Abiotic components include land, water, and air.
  • Biotic components include all living organisms like plants, animals, and humans.
  • Interdependence means depending on others for needs.
  • Countries trade goods and services because no country can produce everything.
  • India exports rice and imports oil and electronics.
  • Local actions like pollution can have global effects.
  • Global warming is caused by excess CO₂ from burning fossil fuels and deforestation.
  • Global warming leads to melting ice, rising sea levels, and extreme weather.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
