Environmental Hazards

Environmental hazards refer to various types of threats or risks that can cause harm to the environment and public health. These hazards can stem from natural sources, such as earthquakes, floods, and severe weather conditions, or from human activities, including industrial pollution, chemical spills, deforestation, and waste disposal. Environmental hazards can lead to negative consequences for ecosystems, wildlife, and human communities, resulting in health issues, ecological degradation, and economic loss. Assessing and managing environmental hazards is crucial for protecting both the environment and human populations from their potentially detrimental effects.
