2. MEANING OF
GREEN SKILLS
The knowledge, abilities, values and attitudes
needed to live in, develop and support a
sustainable and resource-efficient society.
3. ENVIRONMENT
3
A sum total of all the living and non-living elements and their effects which influence
human life.
4. ENVIRONMENT
4
It is composed of living things and non living-things.
Living things: Flora & Fauna
Non-Living things: Lithosphere, Hydrosphere, Atmosphere & Biosphere
5. THE
LITHOSPHERE
Litho referring to rocks and minerals
It is believed the lithosphere evolved about
4.6 billion years ago.
It refers to the solid, rocky crust that covers
the entire planet.
This solid, rocky crust is composed of-
Metamorphic rocks
Igneous rocks
Sedimentary rocks

6. THE
HYDROSPHERE
Hydro referring to water
It refers to the most important resource
which is water.
It includes all forms of water in the Earths
environment.
The forms of water include things such as
the ocean, lakes, rivers, snow and glaciers,
water underneath the earths surface and
even the water vapour that is found in the
atmosphere.

7. THE
ATMOSPHERE
Atmo referring to steam and vapor
It refers to the air that surrounds the earth.
It is always in motion and constantly
changing.
Its believed that there are about 14 different
gases that make up the atmosphere.
(78 percent nitrogen, 21 percent oxygen,
0.9 percent argon, and 0.1 percent other
gases.)
The atmosphere is also responsible for the
weather as the weather occurs within the
lower atmosphere.

8. THE
BIOSPHERE
Bio referring to life
It is composed of all living organisms,
including; plants and animals.
It is believed that all life exists in the
biosphere.
Most of the living organisms are found from up
to three meters below ground to thirty meters
above it and also in the to 200 meters of the
ocean and seas.
The biosphere could not survive if it wasn't for
the other spheres as all organisms need water
from the hydrosphere, minerals for the
lithosphere and gases from the atmosphere.

10. SUSTAINABLE
DEVELOPMENT
Development that is conducted without
depletion of natural resources.
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS:
17 goals have been announced by the United
Nations, termed as the Sustainable
Development Goals(SDGs).
The aim is to achieve these goals by the end
of 2030.
A pledge to do so has been taken by all the
member nations of the UN.

BETWEEN SOCIETY & ENVIRONMENT
Human activities are changing the world and environment we live in. The
research directly addresses the issues societies are currently facing and those
they are likely to face in the future.

16. ECOLOGICAL IMBALANCE
A situation when natural or man-made disturbances affect the natural balance of
an ecosystem.
16
FACTORS: 1. Deforestation 2. Soil Erosion 3. Overexploitation of
Resources
4. Environmental Pollution 5. Irregular Land Use 6. E-Waste
23. Conservation of Natural Resources
One person alone cannot save the planets
biodiversity, but each individuals effort to
encourage natures wealth must not be
underestimated.- United Nations Environment
Programme (UNEP)
24. Air Conservation
The conservation of air is the protection and
cleaning of the earth's air supply. Air pollution
can be caused by any number of sources,
including transportation, power plants, and
factories. This pollution can cause a number of
health problems, so it is important to practice air
conservation when possible.
25. Water Conservation
Water conservation includes all the policies,
strategies and activities to sustainably manage
the natural resource of fresh water, to protect the
hydrosphere, and to meet the current and future
human demand (thus avoiding water scarcity).
Population, household size and growth and
affluence all affect how much water is used.
26. Energy Conservation
Energy conservation is the effort to reduce wasteful
energy consumption by using fewer energy
services. This can be achieved by using energy
more efficiently (using less energy for a constant
service) or through behavioral changes that reduce
the amount of service used (for example, by driving
less). Energy efficiency is a means of achieving
energy conservation; it provides different benefits,
from minimizing the number of greenhouse gases,
reducing the carbon footprint, and saving water,
28. GREEN ECONOMY
Green Economy is defined as an economic
system that is entirely focused on the concept
of green.
A type of economy that advocates a
macroeconomic approach, the investments and
employment model, in this economy is based
on green finance, green investments, and
social equality.
