Along with the development of modern times, there are more environmental problems happening around and it’s called an environmental crisis. Many environmental crisis occur in Indonesia or in other countries, which have threatened human life on earth and caused environmental changes. The environmental crisis is also included in the crisis of human awareness of the environment caused by the gap between environmental problems and lack of human awareness. This crisis is marked by the loss of land, air, water resources, and the extinction of wild flora and fauna accompanied by damage to environmental ecosystems. This can lead to a decrease in the quality of the environment.

The problems that have occurred recently, such as melting glaciers, droughts, and changing weather. This crisis is caused by many things, including global warming, greenhouse gasses, some problems by nature, and various human activities that disturb the environment itself. Human activities that cause environmental crisis include burning forests, littering, increasing plastic waste and pollution. These activities are carried out by humans together and not individually. Therefore, there is a need for public awareness of the environmental crisis and How to find a way to deal with the crisis together.

From the various problems above, such as melting glaciers, droughts, and changes in weather, all of these can occur due to global warming. However, every problem must have a solution. Increasing awareness of each individual about the environmental crisis and making changes or overcoming the crisis with small things starting from oneself, such as using sufficient electrical energy or existing energy, not burning trash indiscriminately, reducing the use of products containing Chloro-fluorocarbons (CFCs) and replace it with environmentally friendly products, reduce the use of coal, gasoline, or other organic fuels, do not litter, do not carry out illegal logging and carry out deforestation, and carry out reforestation and expand the area of green plants. This is because they can absorb carbon dioxide in the process of photosynthesis.

Why is The Environmental Problem IS a WE Problem? This happens in line with the times that there are more and more environmental problems or environmental crisis. Environmental crisis that occurs due to the lack of awareness of every human being to the surrounding environment, such as burning litter, burning forests, excessive pollution smoke so that global warming can occur. All of these things can be reduced or even disappeared by making changes from every human being first, by increasing each other’s awareness of the surrounding environment. For the environmental crisis won’t just affect a few groups of people and animals. Environmental crisis is bound to affect every single being that exists on earth. We are bound to feel the effect of environmental crisis, pollution on air, water, and soil. These environmental pollutants can cause many severe health problems, respiratory disease, heart disease, and even some types of cancer, unless you can live without the need to breathe or consume, then it is a mandatory movement for us to help reduce the environmental crisis. And as you can see we already gave the simplest solution that you can do to help reduce the environmental crisis. A sole proof that even your smallest action can help a lot to reduce the environmental crisis. So let’s slowly remind each other on how to make the earth happy again, let’s reduce the Environmental crisis together.
