1. The natural environment provides necessary living conditions for animals. Animals need basic living resources such as food, water and oxygen, which directly or indirectly come from the natural environment. If these resources in the environment are insufficient or polluted, the health of animals will be affected.
2. The climate, temperature, humidity and other conditions in the natural environment will also affect the health of animals. For example, a climate that is too hot or too cold may cause animals to get sick or die. In addition, environmental pollution will also have a negative impact on animal health, such as air pollution and water pollution.
3. Biodiversity in the natural environment also has an important impact on animal health. Biodiversity refers to the existence of various organisms and microorganisms in the ecosystem, and there are complex interactions between these organisms and microorganisms and animals. If biodiversity is destroyed, animals may lose some necessary microorganisms and natural enemies, thus affecting their health.
4. Changes in the natural environment will also have an impact on animal health. For example, climate change may lead to changes in animal habitats, thus affecting their survival and reproduction. In addition, human activities such as urbanization and industrialization will also change the natural environment, thus affecting the health of animals.
Ways to protect the natural environment
We should reduce pollution. Industrial production, transportation and other human activities will produce a large number of pollutants, such as waste gas, waste water, waste residue and so on. We should take effective measures to reduce the emission of these pollutants, such as using clean energy, improving production technology and improving the recycling rate of waste.
We should protect biodiversity. Biodiversity is an important part of natural ecosystem, which helps to maintain ecological balance, provide ecological services and ensure human survival and development. Protect wildlife habitats, prohibit illegal hunting and trafficking in wildlife, and strengthen eco-tourism and nature reserve management.
We should also save resources. Natural resources are limited, so we should take measures of saving, recycling and sustainable utilization, such as saving water, electricity and paper, and promoting renewable energy and green buildings.
We should also strengthen environmental education. Environmental education is an important way to improve public awareness and behavior of environmental protection. It is necessary to carry out environmental education activities in schools, communities, media and other fields to raise public awareness and consciousness of environmental protection and promote the whole society to participate in environmental protection.
