How to Keep Your Local Environment Safe and Healthy

We affect our environment ourselves by our lifestyle, our activities and our thoughts. A community together affects its environment for good or bad according to its way of living and choices. A healthy environment is the need, if not the desire, of everybody. This kind of environment has to be maintained by the humans themselves. To do this, they must know how to manage making an environment hale and hearty. Education is the best way to motivate the public about how to keep the local environment healthy. Literate people always know what a healthy atmosphere means and what it consists of. Also, they know the importance of keeping it so.

Instructions

• 1

  Keep your surroundings clean. Do not allow garbage to gather near your community. Also keep the drains unclogged and preferably with a screen cover. Both are chief sources of germs and consequently, of diseases. Encourage all residents to use trash cans rather than throw bits of trash on the side of the road.

• 2

  Keep your surroundings green. This means that you ought to plant more and more trees. This ensures a good supply of oxygen which helps the atmosphere feel calm. The trees' shade and the nice aroma of fruits and flowers, too, contribute to improving the air. Encourage residents to garden and plant flower and vegetables, as well as trees. Maintaining even a small container garden is greatly recommended.

  Another important aspect is keeping your atmosphere civilized. Shouting, screaming, fighting is very indecent and give the impression of uncouthness. The resulting stress and fear causes residents to become depressed and to take little care for their environment. Therefore, along with keeping your environment clean and green, keep it peaceful too. All residents should help when any one section or neighborhood is developing this blight.
