Anthropogenic nature of environmental problems 

In this chapter I learned about the environmental problems which are natural but are due to human activities. There are important environmental problems even though they have harmful effects. The existence of societies and humans causes all of the natural hazards, activities such as pollution, overfishing and deforestation are main contributors causing global warming, ozone depletion, natural fires and destruction of habitats.

By looking at SA context we are facing these problems mainly pollution and climate change which causes flooding in many areas of the country. In conclusion we must know that people and their daily activities contribute to the environmental problems.
