CONSERVE & PROTECT OUR ENVIRONMENT
General Environmental Information
WHY DOES THE ENVIRONMENT NEED PROTECTING?
Pollution, the generation of wastes and the depletion of natural resources leads to local as well as global environmental problems including: Health & safety issues Global warming (the “greenhouse effect”) Ozone depletion Acid rain Deforestation
Types of Pollution
Water Pollutionfrom chemical/ oil spillages
Air Pollution
from boilers etc. vehicle emissions
Soil Pollution
from chemical/ oil spillagesIncorrect disposal of waste

Benefits of an Environmental Management System (EMS)
Protection of the environmentDemonstrate compliance with legislation
Reduce risk and liabilitiesMeet customer requirementsGain marketing advantage
Reduce costsImprove public image
Air Emissions
Waste Recycling
Office paper
Cardboard
Fluorescent tubes
Do’s and Don’t’sWaste Paper
Reduce the amount of paper being used by the following;1. Send documents electronically where possible2. Photocopy on both sides of sheets.3. Use old one sided photocopies for making notes.
This reduces both the amount of waste paper to be disposed of (+ associated costs) as well as the cost of buying the paper.
Ensure waste paper is disposed of in the recycling towers

Save Trees! Save EnvironmentToday, when environment is being polluted so rigorously, everyone has only one question on his / her lips and mind that is how to save environment from being polluted. How to protect earth from disaster? The strongest way to protect environment is save trees. Trees are one of the main creations of God that play an important role to keep air clean. If there will be no fresh air available then how human beings, animal, and birds survive; therefore, a clean environment is the need for every living object on this earth. Many big organizations, schools, colleges, and NGOs are taking initiatives to save trees for a better future, clean air, and unpolluted environment, in short healthy life for living objects.
One of the biggest initiatives to save trees is taken by Idea Cellular Ltd. - a part of Aditya Birla Group. Today, trees are being cut with a great speed for full filling daily needs of human beings. It is true that we need to cut trees for our daily needs but cutting trees in such a furious way is leading towards a disaster. You might have noticed that as the number of trees is reducing; disasters are being continuously increasing, which is ultimately leading into high death rate. A big part of the trees is cut to make paper to help us do our personal and official works. If the use of paper will be minimized then we can save a large number of trees from being cut, which leads into healthy and clean environment that is fresh air and healthy life.

Plastic BagsGarbage of Plastic Bags Plastics in the Oceans
• 12 million barrels of oil used to produce 30 billion plastic bags a year
• Millions of these bages are dumped every year.
• Averaged use time of a bag is only 12 min!
• These bags are not only hurting our oceans but they are wasting energy & polluting our environment. ****
Every year, around 500 billion (500000000000) plastic bags are used worldwide. So many that over one million bags are being used every minute and they're damaging our environment. (Environmental Cosmos)
PestisidesThe environmental impact of pesticides is often greater than what is intended by those who use them. Over 98% of sprayed insecticides and 95% of herbicides reach a destination other than their target species, including nontarget species, air, water, bottom sediments, and food. Though there can be benefits using pesticides, inappropriate use can counterproductively increase pest resistance and kill the natural enemies of pests. Many users are inadequately informed about potential short and long-term risks, and the necessary precautions in the correct application of such toxic chemicals are not always made. Pesticides can contaminate unintended land and water when they are sprayed aerially or allowed to run off fields, or when they escape from production sites and storage tanks or are inappropriately discarded.

HOW WE’RE HURTING THE Environment
We are destroying the ocean & polluting the air by making & using plastic bags.
We are polluting the ocean by throwing Garbage.
