Speech on Environment

The environment is the fountain of life. It is made up of all life forms and their surroundings. It determines our growth and development and directs it. Human beings depend on the environment that surrounds us for water, shelter, food, and various other things. A balanced natural cycle exists between the environment and all living creatures. Humankind plays a crucial role in the degeneration of the natural environment that affects lives on this planet. Here we have provided both Long and Speech on Environment for reference.

Long Speech on Environment for Students

Good morning respected Principal of the school, teachers and my dear friends. I, (your name), of Class (your class)  is going to talk about our Environment. The environment plays a pivotal role in the existence and development of all living things on earth and, above all, in the daily life of mankind. For the quality of life that people lead, the condition of the environment is very significant. Environmental abuse has recently been a hot topic for discussion. The most important factors causing harmful environmental effects are various human activities and the high growth of population groups.

Let's explore some of the destructive activities of mankind: humans have always cut down trees to make way for agriculture, wood and use of plants. There are a few great forests left, namely the Amazon and the large forests of Indonesia. These are threatened by people who exploit them for logging or to clear them for palm oil production, which is highly valued worldwide. The international community should assist Brazil and Indonesia to save these precious resources from deforestation.

Humanity is filling the atmosphere with greenhouse gases such as CO₂ and other harmful industrial and fossil fuel emissions. Global warming is caused by hydrofluorocarbons and CFCs from refrigeration found in air conditioners. Plastic waste, which causes sea life like dolphins to die from stomach problems, pollutes the oceans. 

What are the imminent dangers: According to the official NASA website, staggering CO₂ emissions are greater than the previous 400,000 years. The earth has heated up by 0.8 degrees since 1880, with other harmful emissions such as greenhouse gasses released by coal and natural gas and HFCs. Some scientists believe that by the end of the century, the earth may warm up by an incredible 6 degrees, according to Business Insider and NASA. Under the Paris Accord, nations have promised to keep global warming down to 1.5 per cent. The most recent warming on record has been in the last 20 years. 

For life on Earth, what does this mean? To say the least, the outlook is gloomy unless attitudes change. 

The best way to protect and save the environment is to make people aware of the fact that what the environment provides us with and the impact on us that will be caused by environmental degradation. The warming of the earth by human activities is a major cause for concern. If nothing is done, illness, hunger and flooding will be a major problem this century as the earth gets hotter, ice melts and water levels rise. Large chunks of agricultural land will be flooded. 

We can actively participate in the campaign to save the Earth when all human beings learn the importance of the environment.  We can cease using plastic bags and reusable plastic straws on a personal level. When we go shopping, we can use fabric and other reusable bags. With palm oil, we can try to use fewer products that cause widespread deforestation. By eating less meat, we can reduce our carbon footprint; large-scale farming generates enormous amounts of CO₂ from cattle emissions and maintenance. I hope that if each of us has decided to make the environment good, then for the next generation, we will be able to pass on a green environment.

Short Speech on Environment for Children

Good Morning Everyone. I am (your name) representing here Class (your class) is going to deliver a short speech on the Environment. The environment is precious and has existed to enable humans to thrive in a remarkable state. For our basic needs, we are dependent upon the environment. There is a balanced natural cycle between the environment and human beings that exist.

Human beings have begun to overuse natural resources, and this natural balance has been broken. Human societies play a vital role in disrupting wildlife conditions and the well-being of the environment which enables people, sea life and mammals to thrive. The result is deforestation, pollution, extinction of different species and rising temperatures in the world in which we live. An ecological crisis has led to the indiscriminate exploitation of the environment. The interaction with the environment has shifted with the improvement of technology and medical care. 

The ability of humanity to stop the problem is in its power. First of all, a change in attitudes will be required. In some countries, populations are growing at rapid rates, adding to the sad plight of the environment in general. Natural resources have depleted with population growth. This will cause an enormous problem for our generations to come. Some of the effects of this are soil erosion, underground water depletion, lack of fresh drinking water, atmospheric temperature rise, ice cap melting, sea-level rise, and the list goes on.

Effect on people: Human beings are inherently affected by the deterioration of the environment. The ozone layer depletion triggers skin cancer. Besides, excess pollution leads to multiple respiratory problems, such as asthma or lung cancer. It is also said to affect farming. I would like all of you to consider contributing to the protection of the environment and to make other people aware of this as well. You can help save our environment.
