It has become very difficult in recent times for many people to enjoy a 💯 percent healthy environment which is supposed to include a fresh pure air, good mental health and most importantly, clean environment. All these are becoming very difficult to obtain due to how pollution is one big challenge in many countries and humans are changing in nature because of economic hardship.

Healthy environment we believe is enjoying a clean surroundings that brings air that is not polluted where we live , the neatness of the apartment we dwell in and maintaining a good appearance at all times for a better health that will not make us fall ill or force us to be frequenting the hospital regularly. These kinds of environment is far gone from the environment we live now.

The worst being that the government has caused so much deterioration in healthy environment through not controlling how industries should manage most pollution that comes from product waste that are channeled into the gutters and other air pollutions that comes from smokes of bigger industrial generators and those of plastics productions.

Another is that the economic hardship has caused and made humans to change from the normal lifestyles they are supposed to be living into living a nonchalant attitude lifestyles where you will see an able bodied man urinating into the gutter or around a surrounding that he knows should not be urinated around. Many too will prefer to dump the refuse called waste in the the gutter because they feel no body will put them to check. And also believing that the government are supposed to be in charge of collecting garbage 🗑

Living healthy is very important which most of us tries our best to put in place. I make sure that where ever I live must be a place the compound gutter is constantly washed, the compound swept 🧹 from time to time. The refuse must be carried away by the cart pushers as to avoid litter and smells. These are basic hygiene to clean and healthy environment apart from the ones we do inside of our apartments. Washing the bath 🛀 tops and bathroom regularly, the rooms and kitchen constantly mopped.

However, life has become so hard for many in recent times that most people don’t care how the environment they live looks or smells due to how many are facing mental health issues from what the economy and the government has caused them and made them go through because being healthy is not just our physical appearance but also has to do with our thinking faculty and behaviors. This means that many who tries to urinate into a non water flowing gutter are not thinking 💭 rightly, despite they know that urine is a human waste that smells badly, they keep ignoring it. We should see a healthy environment as an environment that constitute of people who thinks right and behave rightly, the peace of mind we have where we live, the lifestyle we see in our surroundings and most of all a free air pollution environment. And in all, a healthy environment is one that brings us peace of mind and without fear 😨 of disaster.
