A
Air pollution : It is the process of damaging the air with chemicals or other substances.
Animal : It is any living thing that can move independently and that has senses for recognizing and reacting to the
environment around it. Animals are divided into two groups, vertebrates and invertebrates.
B
Bardane: It is found in the mediterranean it is used in cooking and medicine.

Bamboo : Bamboo is found in Asia, Oceania, Americas. Used in textiles, cooking and construction

C

Climate : the general weather conditions usually found in a particular place.
Cave : a large hole in the side of a hill, cliff, or mountain, or one that is underground.

D

Drought : Drougth is a long period when there is little or no rain.
Deforestation : Deforestration is the cutting down of trees in a large area, or the destruction of forests by people.

E
Earth : The planet third in order of distance from the sun, between Venus and Mars; the world on which we live

Earthquake: It is a sudden, violent movement of the earth’s surface, often causing damage and sometimes deaths

F

Flood: to cause to fill or become covered with water, especially in a way that causes problems.

Forest : a large area of land covered with trees and plants, usually larger than a wood, or
the trees and plants themselves.

G

Gas: Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, liquid, and plasma). A pure gas
may be made up of individual atoms (e.g. a noble gas like neon), elemental molecules made from one type of atom
(e.g. oxygen), or compound molecules made from a variety of atoms (e.g. carbon dioxide). A gas mixture, such
as air, contains a variety of pure gases. What distinguishes a gas from liquids and solids is the vast separation of the
individual gas particles. This separation usually makes a colorless gas invisible to the human observer.

Green : It is the color between blue and yellow on the visible spectrum. It is evoked by light which has a dominant
wavelength of roughly 495–570 nm. In subtractive color systems, used in painting and color printing, it is created
by a combination of yellow and cyan; in the RGB color model, used on television and computer screens, it is one of
the additive primary colors, along with red and blue, which are mixed in different combinations to create all other
colors.

H

Heat : It is the quality of being hot, or the degree to which something is hot.
Herb : Herb is consumed for macronutrients. Culinary use typically distinguishes herbs from spices. Herbs
generally refers to the leafy green or flowering parts of a plant.

I

Industrial waste: Industrial waste is the waste produced by industrial activity which includes any material that is
rendered useless during a manufacturing process.

Iris: It is a plant with sword-shaped leaves and showy flowers, typically purple, yellow, or white. Native to both
Eurasia and North America, it is widely cultivated as an ornamental.

K

Kangaroo : The kangaroo is a marsupial from the family Macropodidae (macropods, meaning "large foot"). In
common use the term is used to describe the largest species from this family, the red kangaroo, as well as the
antilopine kangaroo, eastern grey kangaroo, and western grey kangaroo.[1] Kangaroos are indigenous to Australia
and New Guinea. The Australian government estimates that 34.3 million kangaroos lived within the commercial
harvest areas of Australia in 2011, up from 25.1 million one year earlier.

L

Laurel : It is herb found in the Mediterranean and is used in cooking.
Lake : A lake is an area filled with water, localized in a basin, surrounded by land, apart from any river or other
outlet that serves to feed or drain the lake. Lakes lie on land and are not part of the ocean, although like the much
larger oceans, they form part of earth's water cycle.

M

Melt: If something melts, it changes from a solid into a liquid because of heat and if you melt something,
you heat it until it becomes liquid.

Mountain: a very high hill.

N

Nature: All the plants, creatures, substances, and forces that exist in the universe, which are not made by people

Noise pollution: Noise, often from traffic, which upsets people where they live or work.

O

geographically.

Organism : It is an individual animal, plant, or single-celled life form.

P

Path: Area with little vegetation that is good to walk on.

Piedmond : Piedmont plain is an area found on the foot of mountains or hills. They develop a reddish colour
because of the iron in crystalline form and metamorphic rocks present in it. At the foot hills of Himalaya, South of
Shiva like, such plains are developed.

Planet : A planet is a celestial body that is in orbit around the Sun,has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to
overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape, and has cleared the
neighbourhood around its orbit.

Plant : Plant is a living organism of the kind exemplified by trees, shrubs, herbs, grasses, ferns, and mosses,
typically growing in a permanent site, absorbing water and inorganic substances through its roots, and synthesizing
nutrients in its leaves by photosynthesis using the green pigment chlorophyll.

Plum : It is an oval fleshy fruit which is purple, reddish, or yellow when ripe and contains a flattish pointed stone.

Pond : A pond is an area filled with water, either natural or artificial, that is smaller than a lake.Ponds may arise
naturally in floodplains as part of a river system or can simply be an isolated depression (such as a kettle, vernal
pool, or prairie pothole) that filled with runoff, groundwater, or precipitation.As such, ponds may be freshwater,
saltwater, or brackish in nature.

Pumpkin : Pumpkin is a large rounded orange-yellow fruit with a thick rind, the flesh of which can be used in
sweet or savoury dishes

Volcano : A volcano is a rupture in the crust of a planetary-mass object, such as Earth, that allows hot lava,
volcanic ash, and gases to escape from a magma chamber below the surface. On Earth, volcanoes are most often
found where tectonic plates are diverging or converging, and most are found underwater.

W

Water: It is an inorganic, transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance, which is the
main constituent of Earth's hydrosphere and the fluids of all known living organisms (in which it acts as a
solvent[1]). It is vital for all known forms of life, even though it provides no calories or organic nutrients. Its
chemical formula is H2O, meaning that each of its molecules contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms,
connected by covalent bonds. Two hydrogen atoms are attached to one oxygen atom at an angle of 104.45°.

X

Xenogamy: (Greek xenos=stranger, gamos=marriage)It is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the
stigma of a different plant. This is the only type of cross pollination which during pollination brings genetically
different types of pollen grains to the stigma.

Y

Yard: An enclosed area around a large building where people can do activities outside.

Z

Zero waste: a situation in which no waste material is produced.
Zone: One of the large areas that the World is divided into according to its temperature.
