YES, INDEED ENVIRONMENTAL TURMOIL IS AS A RESULT OF MAN'S ACTIVITIES, HENCE ECO-MAN-MADE





ECO-MAN-MADE” 
Ecology, which is the study of the relationship of plants and animals to their physical and biological environment. The physical environment includes light and heat or solar radiation, moisture, wind, oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients in soil, water, and atmosphere. The biological environment includes organisms of the same kind as well as other plants and animals.

Because of the diverse approaches required to study organisms in their environment, ecology draws upon such fields as climatology, hydrology, oceanography, physics, chemistry, geology, and soil analysis. To study the relationships between organisms, ecology also involves such disparate sciences as animal behavior, taxonomy, physiology, and mathematics.

In this relationship, the animals are more proactive and has a greater liberty to cause changes while the later is 100% responsive to its action. Trees cannot produce human beings but human beings can plant trees. When there is no fairness and mutuality in this relationship as a result of ignorance of by either party, the product of their relationship been the resultant atmospheric condition will cause climatic change.

Eco-man-made is a study that shows that whatever is the climatic condition of the earth, human being are the chief manipulators, the environment is the fairest thing ever, it does not bear grudge, never withholds whatever is in its position, it is not answerable to us rather we are answerable to it by the activities with our plant friends, these activities which we have a greater control on, also has greater harm on us. Come to think of it, a simple biological process states that man exhales carbon(iv)oxide during respiration and plants inhales, plants exhales oxygen (an important gas required for life) during photosynthesis and man inhales.

This relationship should be mutual, non of the party should intimidate the other as a result of superiority. When we exhale carbon(iv)oxide and there is no plant to inhale it, there will be a bum around, that is to say that they carbon(iv)oxide, will mix with the oxygen in the air and you will still inhale it back, making the available oxygen toxic.

Global warming which is the measurable increase in the temperature of the atmosphere as a result of greenhouse gasses is rooted in man’s activities. Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in the mid-1700s, however, human activities have added more and more of these gases into the atmosphere. For example, levels of carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas, have risen by 35 percent since 1750, largely from the burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas. With more greenhouse gases in the mix, the atmosphere acts like a thickening blanket and traps more heat.

Global warming is chiefly caused carbon (IV) oxide in the atmosphere which has the capability to absorb the heat emitted by the sun during the day, it retains it in the atmosphere and keeps it warm even when the sun has set. Other greenhouse gasses include Methane, Nitrous Oxide.
 
In a warmer world, scientists predict that more people will get sick or die from heat stress, due not only to hotter days but more importantly to warmer nights (giving the sufferers less relief). More frequent and intense heat waves will further contribute to this trend. At the same time, there will be some decreases in the number of cold-related deaths. Diseases such as malaria, now found in the tropics and transmitted by mosquitoes and other animal hosts, are projected to widen their range as these animal hosts move into regions formerly too cold for them. Other tropical diseases may spread similarly, including dengue fever, yellow fever, and encephalitis. Scientists also project rising incidence of allergies and respiratory diseases as warmer air grows more charged with pollutants, mold spores, and pollens.

In as much as much as man contributed to this climatic disorder, the good news is that we can also reduce these greenhouse gasses by planting more trees that will take excess carbon(iv)oxide away from the atmosphere and reduce burning. This is to inform man that he is the maker of the ecosystem, your environment is your health and you have a role to play. Start treating your environment right and you will ever receive fairness from it. Stagnant water is a breeding ground for mosquitoes, and mosquitoes is the vector that carries malaria parasite avoid it.
