Environmental Impact refers to the effect or influence that an individual’s or organization’s actions, products, or policies have on the surrounding environment. This concept encompasses various factors, including changes to ecosystems, biodiversity, air and water quality, and climate. Environmental impact can be both positive and negative; for example, conservation efforts may enhance biodiversity, while industrial pollution can degrade ecosystems. Assessing environmental impact often involves evaluating resource consumption, emissions, waste management, and potential harm to natural habitats. This assessment is crucial for promoting sustainable practices and minimizing adverse effects on the planet.
