Abstract:

Environment change refers to the long-term, human-caused variations that may be from natural disasters or natural sources in weather and temperature; there exists biodiversity in the living organisms, ecology and ecological system. Living and non-living things are dependent on or interrelated with each other for the existence of living bodies. The most prevalent signs of degradation or variation in the environment are rising global average temperatures and harsh, unpredictable weather. The significance of a worldwide emergency that affects not just human well-being but also the sustainability of other life forms and these effects has grown to a high level due to an increase in different types of pollution or contaminants which are responsible for increasing the temperature of the environment and leads to bad impact on biodiversity.

Keywords:
