Now a days the environment that we survive is highly polluted.
The process of deforestation continues and the wild life is not protected properly even with the enforcement of many laws.
It does not mean that enforcing laws eradicate many problems.
There are still more problems that are related to the pollution of water, soil and resources of earth that are considered to be valuable.
It is very essential for the environmental legislation to take actions to overview whether laws are enforced properly.
If any one violates any of the laws strict actions must be taken by them against their acts.
