Why should I care about the Environment?
People debate whether global warming is really happening, and they debate whether the rainforests are important. The world in which we live is important, it supports everything we know, do, own, love so it is probably worth looking after. Just as you change the oil in your car so it won't let you down when you need to go see your aunt, we should look after the environment so there will be future generations of aunties to visit.
Who helps look after the Environment?
Depending on where you are in the world different people look after the environment. In the UK we have a number of people who look after the environment:
Government - DEFRA is the specialist government body that deals with the Environment. Often environmental law in the UK, is transposed from EU Directives.
Enforcing Body - The Environment Agency enforces the laws established by government. For Example the Environmental Permitting Regulations, are a set of rules that certain industries have to follow to protect the environment.
Non Governmental Bodies - These are the people that make the headlines, Green Peace and the likes.
Environmental Consultants - These people handle the more boring end of environmentalism. Writing technical reports and helping solve the problems that regulation creates for industry.
Where can I go to learn about the environment?
All of the above sites are great for learning about the environment? Wikipedia is also good.
