- Due to the number of industries, the liquid wastes are discharged into the source of water and hence, there is the degradation of fresh water.
- Deforestation is carried out commonly to fulfill the basic needs and to export it illegally.
- Soil erosion is seen due to the overuse of soil, excessive use of chemical fertilizers, and also the discharge of wastes to the land.
- People are engaged in animal husbandry. They leave their cattle to graze in any open space which destroys the yound plants and thus, overgrazing of the land.

- Afforestation program should be conducted on the open land.
- Liquid wastes should be properly managed and they should not be dumped into water sources.
- Overgrazing should be minimized.
