Research at least one way that your environment influences your health and
different ways that you can lessen your negative impact on and improve your
environment. Describe your findings and cite your sources here.
One way that our environment can influence our health is through air pollution. Air pollution can cause a variety of health problems, such as asthma, heart disease, and even cancer. To lessen our negative impact on the environment and improve air quality, we can reduce our use of fossil fuels, switch to renewable energy sources, and reduce our emissions of pollutants. We can also reduce our waste by recycling, composting, and using reusable products. Additionally, we can support green initiatives, such as planting trees and creating green spaces in our communities.
