Environmental destruction in Africa is driven by factors such as deforestation, land degradation, and pollution. Deforestation, largely due to agricultural expansion and logging, threatens biodiversity and contributes to climate change. Overgrazing and unsustainable farming practices lead to soil erosion and desertification, impacting food security. Additionally, industrial pollution and inadequate waste management exacerbate health issues and degrade ecosystems across the continent.
Environmental destruction is caused by climate changes, population expansion, and toxic gases being emitted into the atmosphere. The effects of environmental degradation are that resources such as wildlife, water, and soil can be permanently changed.
Development can lead to environmental destruction if not managed sustainably. This can occur through deforestation, habitat destruction, pollution, and overexploitation of natural resources. Balancing development with environmental conservation is crucial to ensure long-term sustainability.

With further environmental damage, the future holds total destruction to our planet.
This phrase is talking about the complete destruction of the environment. This obviously could occur if a comet hit earth (this was global environmental destruction, though it was not quite complete as life survived) Currently humans are putting most environments under considerable strain, global environmental destruction would be if all environmental systems were destroyed. If this happened completely it is unlikely that earth would be able to support life
The organization offering environmental assessment is called the Environmental Assessment Practitioners Association of South Africa (EAPASA), and was founded on April 7th 2011.
