Our surrounding is composed of many substances from our activities and from other material that is being scattered. Dirty surroundings can affect much on our health, such as dusty places, places wherein there are garbage dumped in any where. And all those activities that are harmful to man can create dirt in surroundings. Our health will be greatly affected if our surrounding is very dirty. All carriers of diseases are breeding on the dumping places like flies and other insects that could contribute harm to man's life. Garbage area may give off bad smell to the people and those could give harmful effect to our health. We should keep our surrounding clean also in such a way that we can maintain our good health. We can inhale the polluted air if we scatter our dirt and trash anywhere else. So we can contribute much in keeping our surrounding clean by making correct dumping of our garbage in our own backyard. We will make a compost pit so that it can prevent in scatttering our own garbage.

Absolutely ...Banning plastic and making proper arrangements for garbage ! Those who have a patch of land and garden should be encouraged to make their own compost using kitchen waste. It is such a satisfying job that yields great results ..

Yes it's true, that's why I think every province or city should have an awareness program that can help our surroundings clean

@kiran8 yes and we should learn how to segregate our waste into bio and non biodegradable. Non bio can be recycled and can be used as a fertilizer

I feel like when out in the wild in nature, for the people living in village is far healthier than our modern surroundings. In our place today, germs become trapped. Fresh air is the best to keep it clean and also a mild hot steam I clean with and a small amount of bleach as the doc told me to kill all germs.

I use baking soda with a little vinegar mixed in warm water to clean the kitchen surface . We get neem oil here , a capful of which is mixed with water to swab the floors , keeps the mosquitoes away and other pests that we have to put up with because of the warm tropical weather.

I totally agree with that . Our Indian cities are very congested and dirty . No doubt the authorities have a role but unless all the citizens contribute it is impossible for them to keep the cities clean. When people come together with a firm determination and dedication it is not difficult to have clean and healthy surrounding s

Yeah exactly,because what you give is what you get, if you are lazy doing your role as a citizen in your country then the efect is worse otherwise, if you're determined and show hardwork then success will be wit you

Unfortunately nowadays pollution is on the rise. There are many laws brought forward to protect the environment but the government has not been strict enough and people are not afraid to break the laws. We also have deforestation nowadays where land is being cleared either for residential or commercial purposes. With lesser trees, water, air and noise pollution our future is at risk. The future generation will have to bear the brunt of what we have done

I reckon its the people who do not cooperate and instead abuse the nature, it's us who are the cause and will be the effect, people destroy the earth and eventually we will be suffering. Let us always bear in mind that Mother Nature doesn't need us, we need Mother Nature

Garbages and dust is most dangerous I agree. And nowadays nobody is caring for surroundings. I am sorry that I am also that type. But we could at least maintain hygiene like washing hands etc.

We must see to it that our surroundings are very clean.Then only our health will be good and we don't fall sick.There should be a solution,to dump garbage.Trash boxes should be kept everywhere so that it will be convenient for people to throw garbage.
