The environmental challenges our planet is facing have been unprecedented. Whether it’s the air we breathe, water we drink and soil we till; all the indicators of environmental degradation are getting much more evident. We see it with the increasing intensity of weather extremes, the worrying loss of biodiversity, and also the pollution all around us that mars and defiles our natural environment. The problems are interrelated by the fact that they arise as a result of a complex interdependence of human practices and are not just abstract threats, but generate real life-span and potentially devastating effects on both biotic and abiotic environments, human health, and the general stability of our planet. It is important to understand the underlying factors contributing to such a decline including un-sustainable consumption trends, industrial processes and poor waste disposal mechanisms when seeking solutions to the problems. Out of this broad range of solutions which are focused on attenuating these negative impacts, the concept of recycling proves to be one of the most powerful and easily applicable weapons. Viewing waste as a resource, recycling provides an objective solution toward reducing pressure on the relative limited resources of planet Earth, reducing pollution<\/a><\/strong>, and narrowing the gap toward a more circular and sustainable economic interaction with our environment. The strength of recycling is that it will hit on many aspects of environmental degradation, hence a necessary addition to a larger effort to treat the planet’s health.<\/p>

Introduction<\/h2>

The reasons for degradation of environment are multidimensional, starting with the emission of industrial pollutants, degrading forests to the over-farmed lands, and the number of garbage being produced by an expanding world population. The result of this regression takes a number of forms with fragile balances in our eco systems being affected and vital resources to life being threatened. It is time to take a careful reflection on the disturbing implications of environmental degradation. This is a start to execute the relevant measures that will change these poor trends.<\/p>

What is Environmental Degradation?<\/h2>

Environmental degradation refers to the deterioration of the living environment. The reasons for degradation of the environment are due to depleting means of survival like air, water, and soil; destruction of habitat; extinction of wildlife and the pollutants.<\/p>
