      - CHANGING LAND
        
        DEFORESTATION
        
        When land & trees are cleared to be used for other purposes.
        
        SOIL DEGRADATION
        
        Loss of fertility in soil which is often due to chemical change.
        
        SOIL EROSION
        
        When salt is gradually worn away by natural phenomena.
      - DESERTIFICATION
        
        becomes drier, loses water, vegetation and animals
      - AIR POLLUTION
        
        When atmosphere is degraded in many ways.
        
        Pollutants such as carbon, nitrogen & sulphur are released into atmosphere from factories & transport.
        
        This change in atmosphere as well as the reduction in forest cover is responsible for an increase in global temperatures & climate change.
    - - Encourage shift to more sustainable transport modes eg. cycling, walking, electric cars etc.
      - Reduce & manage congestion eg. effective public transport network that reduces number of people driving, particularly during peak. Also, increase car occupancy such as carpooling and other ways of reducing number of single occupant cars.
      - Reduce waste & encourage reduce, reuse & recycle.
