Environment regulates and affects the life besides, all the vital activities on the earth. It is not only the fundamental basis of life but also helps in controlling the activities of living organism. Environment is mainly divided into abiotic and biotic components. Among biotic components man itself is the major culprit which severely affects all other components of the environment. Man plays the major role in disturbing and destroying the natural ecosystem which not only affects the human life but also the life of other plants and animals on the earth. That is why it is now very important to make the human beings aware about the environment. Study of environment is not only the subject of study for science students, but is also necessarily to be taught and informed every human being from his early childhood to make him understand how to protect and maintain the environment not only for himself but also for the safe future of the earth. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce study of environment in the syllabus of all levels of education.
