Erosion effect on our environment

Erosion effect on our environment
We love our lands and our environment, but erosion effect on our lands take over the environmental issues.
Erosion are not caused only by improper housing system. concerted grounds and floors can also aid bad environmental issues.
Causes of erosion can be
• Improper housing systems
• Concerted grounds and floors
• Poor drainage system
• Poor river channeling
• Improper housing system
Housing systems differs in location, but housing system determines the rate of water flow. In settings with uniform housing,rate of water consumption will have been put into consideration in construction. The rate of water flow is equivalent to the rate of erosion and damage in road and buildings.

• Concerted grounds and floors
The rate of water run off on concerted grounds and floor are higher than open grounds. Concerted flooring seals all opening in the ground. And this contribute to the rate of evaporation in a given area. Concerted floors also contribute to low availability of water in a given area. Planting of grasses and making of lawns reduces the rate of erosion and increase the availability of water.

• Poor drainage system
Poor drainage system remains the most  visible in causes of erosion. Poor drainage system does not only include water channeling medium,but centers on types and sizes of water channels. Sizes and types of channels should be determined by the distance to be traveled by the water,and rate of water flow in a area.

• Poor river channeling
All water tributaries leads to river's. Poor river channeling remains one of the most important factors of erosion. At constant rate, water flows are equivalent to the capacity of river banks. Proper river channeling helps in smooth and constant flow of water. Reduction in erosion saves lives and properties.
