INTRODUCTION Environment is the sum total of all surrounding environments of a living organism which provides conditions for growth and development. The natural environment includes all living and non-living things that occur naturally on Earth. It is an environment that includes the interaction of all living species. It can be divided into two components:1. Non-living2. LivingThe environment provides resources that help support life on Earth and lead to the growth of living organisms. Human beings occupy an important and unique position in nature due to the exceptional ability to influence the environment.• Importance of the environmentThe environment plays an important role in all aspects of life as living beings are largely dependent on the environment . The components necessary for survival such as air, water, soil, food, etc. they are provided by the environment. Therefore, all major developmental activities of living organisms such as survival, reproduction, growth, etc. are carried out in the environment.• Reasons to protect the environment1. Save money: The less food, clothing and goods are wasted, the less they are purchased. The more the environment is protected, the lower the costs will be for replacing roads, trees, etc. and for the relocation of people from disaster areas.2. It makes us healthy: Many diseases are caused by insects living in dirty, waste-filled environments and affect people's health and the food they eat.

Intended Limitation: There are various places beyond the reach of the regulatory bodies where there are industries carrying out environmentally harmful practices, but the regulatory bodies still cannot do anything as such industries are not part of the jurisdiction. It is therefore an important part of the concern to work for those areas and industries where regulatory bodies cannot approach and alternatives must be identified to reduce environmentally harmful practices.
