 To start with, few years ago , I had little information about my environment. I mean, obviously I knew what climate change was , what pollution was, but I didn't know how it would huge effect on the environment on the long run. I thought they were things that just happen all the time. But with joining organizations like Tunza, I've been able to learn more about my environment. The monthly topics has been a push to research more on environmental hazards, their long term and short term effects. Environmental awareness can simply be defined as the understanding of our environment and how our behaviors and actions lead to its growth or its degradation. Environmental awareness is so important because is shows us how we can protect and improve our environment by changing some of our wrong actions into actions that would make our environment greener and more friendly. These are different ways to make people more aware of environmental issues 1. Being in volunteer programs that do things for the community such as cleanups. 2. Educate other people on the ways to protect and preserve their environment. 3. Conservation of resources such as water, renewable energy. 4. Choosing green options over non green options. 5. Planting of trees.
