THE FOLLOWING ARE THE
LOCAL AND GLOBAL
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
OR PROBLEMS THAT CAN
AFFECT OUR COMMUNITY.
1.DEFORESTATION

-One of the country’s

environmental problem.
-losing of trees in the forest.
 MAJOR CAUSES OF
DEFORESTATION
 KAINGIN FARMING
 ILEGAL LOGGING
 CONVERSION OF
AGRICULTURAL LANDS TO
HOUSING PROJECT
 FOREST FIRE
 TYPHOONS
 KAINGIN FARMING
ILLEGAL LOGGING
  Conversion of agricultural lands to
housing project
.
Forest fire
 Typhoons
EFFECT OF DEFORESTATION
 SOIL EROSION
 FLOODS
 DECREASE IN WILDLIFE
RESOURSES
SOIL EROSION
FLOODS
2.WILDLIFE
DEPLETION
WHAT HAPPEN S TO
ANIMAL
POPULATIONS THAT
ARE DRIVEN AWAY
FROM THEIR
NATURAL HABITAT?
IF THEY CANNOT
FIND ENOUGH
SPACE,MANY
WILL DIE OR
BECOME EXTINCT.
EXAMPLE OF EXTINCT SPECIES
SOME SPECIES MAY
BECOME VERGE AND
BECOMING EXTINCT
I CALLED
ENDANGERED
Example of Endangered
Species
REFERRING TO
SPECIES THAT ARE
CLOSE TO BEING
ENDANERED IS
CALLED THREATENED.
EXAMPLE OF THREATENED
3.WATER POLLUTION

-THE
CONTAMINATION
OF WATER
WATER POLLUTANT
 MAJOR CAUSES OF
WATER POLLUTION
Eutrophication-the process by
which a body of water becomes
enriched in dissolved nutrients
that stimulate the growth of
aquatic plant.
 Effect of eutrophication

Fish kill-usually happens

when there is an increase
in concentration of
organic nutrients in
bodies of water.
4.AIR POLLUTION
-THE
CONTAMINATION
OF AIR.
Cars, factories and power plant are
one of the major contributors to air
pollution.

3 harmful gases
• Carbon dioxide
• Nitrogen oxide

• hydrocarbon
AIR POLLUTION
Greenhouse effect
-the trapping of heat by gases
in the earth’s atmosphere. It is
lead to global warming
Global warming

-is an increase in the

earth’s temperature.
5.DESTRUCTION OF
HABITAT
-The destroying of
habitat or home of a
being.
 Some activities that destroyed
coastal resources
 DEFORESTATION
 AGRICULTURAL ACTIVITIES
 MINING ACTIVITIES
 DYNAMITE FISHING
 MURO-AMI
 COASTAL AREAS CONVERSIOM TO BEACH
RESORTS,RESIDENTIAL AREAS
 OVERHARVESTING
• DEFORESTATION
AGRICULTURAL ACTIVITIES
MINING ACTIVITIES
 COASTAL AREA’S CONVERSION TO
BEACH RESORT,RESIDENTIAL AREAS
OVERHARVESTING
 6. ACID PRECIPITATION
 - is commonly known as acid
rain , it is rain water that
normally acidic.
Acid precipitation pollutant is from:

 Commission from factories

 Exhaust of vehicles
 Acid rain can be harmful to
living things. It causes yellowing
to leaves of trees and cause
leaves to fall.
