Environmental Issues

INTRODUCTION


Environmental issues will undoubtedly be one of humanity's most pressing concerns in the twenty-first century, and it is becoming clear that sociologists can play a key role in casting light on these issues and the efforts that must be taken to address them. This is due to a rising recognition that environmental issues are inherently social issues. They arise from human social conduct, are perceived as bad because of their influence on humans, and require society effort to solve. As a result, it's no surprise that environmental sociology has grown in popularity in recent decades. However, systematic sociological examination of environmental issues is a comparatively new trend in the area.

Environmental Disasters

Global Warming  The term "global warming" is frequently used in the context of environmental issues. Global warming is characterized by gradual climate changes such as rising temperatures, longer heat waves, and shorter cold periods. Global warming, which is linked to greenhouse gas emissions, has a multitude of effects on the world, including a decrease in water resources, the degradation of some ecosystems, glacial melting, and the threat of plant and animal extinction. Green House Effect   The Greenhouse Effect The greenhouse effect occurs when short wavelengths of visible light from the sun pass through a transparent medium and are absorbed, while longer wavelengths of infrared re-radiation from heated things cannot. Long wavelength radiation is trapped, resulting in more heating and a higher temperature. The greenhouse effect has been widely used to describe the trapping of excess heat by rising carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere, aside from the heating of a

Why Environment Happens?

Impact of Environmental Issues  Floods and epidemics will occur if the drainage system is not well maintained and rubbish collection is not done on a regular basis, affecting the health of the surrounding population. The community's irresponsible acts, such as the industry dumping dangerous substances in the river basin and surrounding areas, have resulted in air and water pollution. Animals such as rats, cockroaches, and aedes mosquitoes will propagate the pandemic if the surrounding region is not cleansed and controlled. How Flood Happens? Lets Watch The Root Cause of Environmental Issues Occurs The impacts of urbanization, which has resulted in a mass migration to major urban centers, have resulted in the creation of towns and an increase in population. Everything that occurs is the result of a careless attitude and a lack of understanding about the importance of caring for and preserving the environment. Meanwhile, funds are needed to conduct awareness programmers, rubbish coll

Conclusion We are living at a time when the process of commoditization is radically altering our relationship with nature. Nature is increasingly being interpreted in terms of exchange value and mediated by the market. As a result, billions of people are chronically malnourished and lack access to clean water and energy. This is not the kind of world we want to live in. The possibility of ecological collapse necessitates urgent debate and, at the very least, a reconsideration of capital's ownership of the sustainability language, as well as the economistic bias that misses how the focus on growth has negative distributional and environmental consequences. If environmental sociology is to contribute meaningfully to efforts to address the tremendous challenges of environmental degradation that humanity faces in the twenty-first century, it must build a firm foundation of theoretically informed but empirically grounded research.
