The environment is important because it is our home where we live, breathe, eat, and raise our families. All living things on Earth are interdependent in the biosphere, which refers to the global ecological system that supports all life. We must protect the environment to preserve its beauty and maintain the well-being of the planet that supports our entire life support system.

1. “How Important our
environment is”

2. Why is our environment important?
We hear and read so much about
protecting and saving the planet Earth.
Why should we be concerned when
we are also facing economic crises,
wars and unending social problems as
a society?

3. The simplest explanation about why the
environment matters is that, as humans, the
environment-the Earth-is our home. It is
where we live, breathe, eat, raise our
children, etc. Our entire life support system
is dependent on the well-being of all of the
species living on earth. This is commonly
referred to as the biosphere, a term created
by Vladimir Vernadsky, a Russian scientist in
the 1920s.The biosphere refers to one global
ecological system in which all living things
are interdependent.
